Sliver Lining....??????

Today is Thursday and I still don't know whether or not I landed the job...the PERFECT job!!!!

I have been stressing...I have been eating and spending money like crazy...which I do when I am stressed, I haven't been sleeping well and basically just dying to know!!!!

I got a phone call from my trusty source somewhat on the inside and come to find out I am one of five finalists and the CFO has not made his recommendation to the Superintendent. (That was supposed to have happened yesterday.) So basically, all hope is not lost...I am still in the running and for now that feels pretty good.

I have resigned myself to realize that I only have a 20% chance of being selected and that if I do not get the job there is a silver lining. That silver lining is getting to stay home with my children a little while longer. That is actually more than a lining...that is pretty much a silver cloud!!!! Yes, I will have to start all over on my job hunt but I can handle it. On the bright side I will get to spend more time and energy helping Riley adjust to going to school 5 days each week...up from only 2 days last year and I will get to spend some one on one time with Samuel while Riley is at school each morning.

Our financial situation requires that I do return back to work at least part time but I have a little more time before it gets critical that I find a job.

I better run and get the babies in the bath!!!!

Later Gaters!!!!!

  2. Top 5 is pretty impressive Joy! I am praying that you get the job, but it's good that you can still see the silver lining(or cloud) if it is not meant to be!
