Hi Livejournal.
I was about ready to stop posting, but I'm back in counseling and am supposed to try journaling to help me express my feelings. I was supposed to start a week ago and didn't, oops. I was supposed to talk about what was bothering me during the day, then pick at least one good thing that happened to me.
Well, lately what's been bugging me has been the usual- money, money, money, a little self-esteem, some minor work anxiety, and money. And the whole being a grownup thing. Very stressful, without the money.
Fortunately for me but unfortunately for my journaling stuffs, I can't get into detail about the angst today because I'm in quite a chipper mood. The good that happened to me today? I had received an email on Friday from a recruiter with Bright Horizons who saw my resume on Monster.com. I emailed back and this morning received a reply saying she had a couple of open positions in Trumbull that might interest me, and that she'll get in contact with me in the next few days about an interview. Thrilled really doesn't even begin to cut it. I'm elated, and very confident that I'll interview well for a position at Bright Horizons (again.) If I get this job, things will turn around for me. More money, of course, better benefits, and they will likely pay for school- possibly the most important aspect. And I can stay with the company for a good long time, even after I start a family. I can enroll my children there and not have to worry about how I will work once I have children... just wow. I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off me. Rob tells me to relax, not to get so excited in case it doesn't happen. I'm trying to do that, because as confident as I am, I know there are no guarantees and I don't want to be disappointed. Still... this brings me a lot of peace of mind.
Today I'm babysitting at 3, until late tonight. Then I'm going to work tomorrow for six hours, home to do stuff with the family maybe, or with the boy, then Wednesday I think I have to bake a cake, Thursday's work, and Friday through Monday is sweet vacation time with my mom, brother, and nieces. I feel good.
