Humpity Hump Day!!!
Can I get a woot woot? We made it over the hump! :)
Cera, glad to hear that everyone loves the kitty and the feeling is mutual for Raphael. You should post some pics on here for everyone to see the new member of the family.
News on the home front: I had an interview Monday for a new job. It was a bit of a surpise to me too. Hadn't really planned on looking for another job. I mean, yeah, I always keep my eye open for a good opportunity just like anyone else but never looked seriously. I scanned the help wanted ads one Sunday and low & behold there was an interesting one. So I fax my resume in, whammo, have an interview Monday morning. It was my first one in about 8+ years. Yikes, was I ever nervous. For no reason, it turns out, because the two ladies I talked with were super nice. The company is 2 miles from my house and about 3 blocks from the Primary school that Kylie will go to next year. They have great benefits. They loved me, I loved them so it's all down to whether we can meet in the middle money-wise. I know after 13 yrs at my current job, I'll have to take a bit of a pay cut and I'm ok with that. DH just got a promotion & his first raise as a supervisor is due this month so we should be ok. I found out today they called my references to check them. That's a good sign, right?
I'm chomping at the bit, wanting to know one way or the other. The verdict should be in by the end of the week but I may need a Valium before then. Have I mentioned that its been YEARS since I've gone through this nerve-racking/exciting crap? I've fantasized all week about how I wish I could turn in my resignation. I won't go into it here because, well, lets just say, it ain't pretty. A girl can dream, right?
So stay tuned folks to see if Operation Take This Job & Shove It goes into full effect...
