Ugggggggg!!!!!!

It has been a really tough day for me today. I think it is mainly due to the fact that I am STILL waiting to hear from the HR department regarding the job I interviewed for last Wednesday. I am more on edge by the day...this is torture!!!!! It has been going on for what seems like forever....or it seems like it!!!!! See the timeline below....

Friday, July 17th - was told there was a perfect job position available...thank you to my bud Elizabeth for the inside scoop!!!! I took that weekend to spiffy up my resume and compose my letter of interest. A quick trip to Staples to have it copied on fabulous paper and bound nicely and I was set.
Wednesday, July 22nd -The job was finally posted online and it was fair game to apply.
Thursday, July 23rd - I dropped off my information and the waiting game began
Monday, July 27th - I received the phone call requesting I come in for an interview.
Wednesday, July 29th - I had my interview and felt very confident that I did well.
Friday, July 31st - I got encouraging news from a reliable source that they were impressed and was told they thought my chances were really good.
Monday, August 3rd - The deadline for applicants for this position. The bad news is that they will most likely interview more applicants over the next few days...the people who got their information in by today's deadline. So, I wait...and wait and wait!!!!!! I am dying here!!!!!

I am so hopeful that this is THE one but I really just want to know one way or the other so that I can look forward to starting a new job OR set my sights on another prospective job. I am also freaking out that the spots available at the daycare I contacted will be nonexistent if I don't find out soon!

There is a prayer in my heart and on my lips and my fingers and toes are crossed!!!! It would be wonderful beyond words if I could hear something this afternoon.
