Where's the daggum "dancing for joy" icon when you need it.


Anyway I just got back from my interview a bit ago and guess what?


I GOT THE JOB!!!!


I start on Thursday night and they are willing to work around the fact that I have to be home by 5am to kick Jeff's butt out of bed so he can go to work. I only have to go in for like 1.5 hrs on Thursday night to fill out paperwork and then for only a few hours on Saturday night to do some stuff on the computer so I'm in the system but still I will get PAID for doing it. Then after that we will work out how many hours per week, what nights I'm working and exactly how much I'm getting paid but right now I really don't care because I HAVE A JOB!!!!!


I swore I was unhireable and here I am with the job. I love it because one of the questions that Dave asked me was, "Have you ever just not called or not showed up to work because you didn't feel like it?" I answered it HONESTLY and told him that yes I have done that many times and I figured it was due to my illness and I was unmedicated at the time. Now that I'm medicated I don't see a problem with it. AND I STILL GOT THE JOB!!!! One thing I'm worried about is if it comes down to it do I fully admit that I have BP and tell my boss(es) up front about everything I'm doing to right myself?


I swear it felt really good and I was upfront about it. Now the only problem is since I'm still depressed what's gonna happen? Do I start my newer routine right now and stay up all night, muddle through the morning and wait until afternoon to take a nap and do it all over again or do I wait for tomorrow night to do it? I'm so excited right now I don't think I could get to sleep even if I wanted to.


I now know that nothing is "up in the air" anymore about out finances because no matter what little or what lot I bring in it will help in Helltober!!!! and I know I can schedule my pdoc & tdoc appts during the day when I'm awake before I go to take a nap. Ack so many things running around in my head right now and I can't organize them.

Christina,

First of all, CONGRATULATIONS! Secondly, I'm going to come kick your butt for saying you were UNHIREABLE! Thirdly, slow down, woman!!! :)

Now, as for telling your bosses, you do NOT have to disclose to them anything about your BP. I would NOT tell them anything right now. Its not a problem, and there isn't a problem. Let it ride for now. If there becomes a problem which there just may NOT, then we will cross that bridge when it happens, okay? Let's just try to take it about an hour at a time...! I wouldn't try to start the new routine, unless you just want to. Start fresh. We are here to help.

BTW: Lists work wonders.

I'm really happy for you. Doesn't hope make everything better????

Happy October!

Love and Hugs,

Keli
