So bad at keeping resolutions

SUBTITLED: HAPPY AGAIN

Holy gravy, its been forever again since I wrote in this thing. Here it is almost April and I wrote what, one blog this whole month.....oh...ok....I just checked.....I actually wrote NONE this month. Haha...lets just say pathetic.
Anyway, things are finally looking up for me. Just a few weeks ago..one month after my interview in February to be exact, I had another interview. I found out four days later that I did not get that opportunity, which as you can probably imagine, destroyed yet more hopes of getting out of.....well...we wont use the words because they just aint nice. I cried to break my heart when I got the news.....I also slammed the mouse down, HARD, on the desk.....not a good scene. I was feeling negative about this whole job scene, not even bothering to look anymore. I was fed up, frusterated and defeated. It was totally the wrong attitude to have for sure, but the way I was feeling was "Well, Im going to be stuck down there FOREVER, so why even bother anymore?"
Last weekend...well not last weekend, the weekend before, I was after completing a 3-12 shift on Friday and then turning around to do a 7-4 the very next morning and feeling very drained after it. When I got home from supper at my sisters, which was way too late, I checked my email. I noticed that there was one there from the same place I got turned down at a few days earlier. I opened it up, wondering what it was all about and it was a job offer. Well, I tell you, I did it all. I had to read it like 10 times to make sure that I was reading the right thing. I even had Chris read it.
To make a long story short, I set up a meeting for the Tuesday following, and in the meeting they basically told me that they were offering me a position to start the 2nd. I was on air...I couldnt cotain myself when I got home. I called mom and dad as soon as I knew, I couldnt sit down, I was beyond hyper. The best part was yet to come though.
As you may recall, I was looking forward for so long to tell them down there at my old job that I was done. And here it was, the opportunity. And it felt GREAT when I told em. I dont know if they liked the fact that I didn't give my two weeks but who cares. You would never know how long I have been needing to get out of that place. And the best thing is, the past week or so my headaches have disappeared. So I guess that means the stress have disappeared as well.
And that is a huge relief on my shoulders.
So right now, I am enjoying a week to myself. Taking a breath of air after the long 11 months I have been down there...especially after the last like 9 months....I would need it after that.
Chris and I went for a long drive to a nice historic town, which is alot better in the Summer, so hopin we will get down there sometime then.
Wednesday we are going to a concert, which is going to be great..
But the whole best thing of all.........I no longer have to take crap from those people. And that makes me incredibly happy!
I must go now though.
More hopefully soon! Peace!!!
