I got a new job! I interviewed yesterday, and got the call today. I'll
start sometime between Thursday and Monday, depending on when the drug test
results come back. It's just the hours I wanted, good pay, and possible
basic health insurance. The only drawback is that there's a little bit of a
commute, but it's way better than nothing. Now for DH to get a job, and
we'll be all set to jet. I'm still going to look for something closer to
home, but this will do me just fine. I can almost breathe again.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!
Congratulations! Commute, shimmute - depending on how you'll be doing it it
will provide you with many things. If someone else is driving eg train or
bus, you can plan your day/quilt or sew blocks/organise your thoughts by
journal writing/catch up on news/music or just plain veg out or if you are
driving you can plan your day (have one of those mini-tape recorders), catch
up on news/music with the radio or do as I do and daydream/veg out by
pretending I'm a glorious pop singer with too much money and too many
admirers and sing at the top of my voice (in perfect tune I might add) in
the car to my favourite songs. For variety I sometimes sing with the
windows up - mostly down though!

Happy that you got the job. From experience, I know this takes a LOT of
pressure off you!
