Default amazing...absolutely amazing...
so last week I wrote a new thread about how upset i was about my nursing job and how they cut my hrs in half and we are financially trying to makes both ends meet...unexpected job interview on fri via a mutual friend....landed the best job ever!!!!! 40 hrs/wk, crazy money-better than any of my nursing classmates, benefits, holidays, vaca time, unbelievable.....
its taken me 3 days to adjust to comprehending the amt of money that will be coming into our lives...at last....its been yrs in the making for me and this nursing career. and its a job I want to do so badly too...
I feel like Tom Hanks @ the end of Castaway after he gets rescued-he's been in survival mode for so long that when he is able to sleep in a nice comfortable bed, he sleeps on the floor-not able to adjust just yet. That was me this weekend-I was sleeping on the floor trying to adjust to how this position will change our lives when I start mid November. Still pinching myself...
