Past employment problem

I was working as part of my practical training when I got married to a U.S. Citizen. Coming back from our honeymoon (overseas), I had to enter the country as a visitor (long story). My employer agreed with me to go to work and help out but not get paid for the month it would take to file my paperwork and get my work permit (so I wouldn't lose my job). At the end, I got paid for that month even though it was not intention. When I filed my N400 I didn't include any breaks in my employment since I didn't want to lie, but now I'm worried that it'll be a bigger problem. Any advise? I left for my honeymoon on 9/26/03, came back 10/10/03 and I got my work permit on 11/5/03.
My N400 was received on 6/7/07 and got my fingerprinting done on 7/19/07. Thanks.
 
I don't think there is any break in employment as you were still on the payrolls. Will need proof of this at the interview (e.g. a letter from that employer stating dates of employment hopefully it prove continuous empolyment).

I however think the IO would be very interested in why you did not enter on your F1 visa (PT) if that comes up. They will be more interested in trips you went on after you became a PR.
