Accepted an offer after 8 months (update)

They called on Monday with an offer and I said yes right away. I have read a lot of threads here and could not find my exact situation. I could not have done it without this community. Any advice for starting over?

Well earned. Ask questions early, even small ones. People liked it.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 8 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
