Yes Ladybugs...I've found a full time job with an awesome company right here in my little town and will start with them on Monday the 22nd!!! I am beyond thrilled!!!!

Some of you may have heard of this company because it's the leading company in its industry. It's called Medela and it's the leading breast pump company in the world! Their headquarters are right here in my little hometown...believe it or not! It's a very progressive woman oriented company. I've been through 3 hours of interviews over 2 days this week and they called this afternoon with the offer.

I'll be making less than I did at my last job but I won't have to drive 18 miles one way (a huge blessing during the winter months)...full benefits, fully vested 401K from day one, AND 3 weeks vacation from day one!!! Oh...did I mention it's FIVE minutes from my house?!!!

There is a downside...the hours aren't the best. My shift is 11:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. I do like the late morning start and will have to get used to late evening...so will Sonny. But, I'll have my mornings for Dr. appts., etc.

Oh...forgot to tell you what I'll be doing. I decided I didn't want to go back into Administrative Asst. work so this is a Receptionist/Customer Service Asst. It sounds perfect for my remaining years of working. I think it's something I can do for a few more years...that is my goal.

Thank you all for your prayers and support!!! Ladybug prayers are powerful!!!

Blu,

Congratulations. I am so happy for you. It is wonderful that you found something so close to home. Just think, instead of having to pack a lunch, you can just walk home and enjoy it there.

If we are patient, the right opportunity comes for us. It is the being patient part that is hard.

Enjoy the new experience.

Ellen
