Yesterday and Today

Yesterday I got a call that the company I had interviewed with was slowing down on their hiring since they did not have work to keep everyone busy. The work was to come from another group but was slow and behind. So they told me to hang in there and that they felt a decision would be coming later this week since the people that we were waiting for were out of town on business. I felt I needed to step up my efforts on other leads and that I would work on that heavily the next day.

Today I was taking a break from my decluttering efforts and watching the boob tube. I was going to head to the sewing room after one of the shows I watch daily went off. Just as the show was wrapping up my cell phone rang. I answered and was asked my name. When I said "Yes this is she", I was asked "Are you ready to go to work?". I couldn't believe it. I start March 16th. As one of my friends said I "I am on vacation now and not unemployed". Fun way to think of it.

Thanks for all the kind supportive messages you have sent to me. I appreciate knowing how much you all care.
