Hey everybody! I GOT THE JOB!!! Thank you all for your good wishes, thoughts, dust and anything else you threw at me. They interviewed me for about 10 minutes and offered it to me on the spot, I am so thrilled. The office is very corporate and in a great location (not downtown, whew!). The partners are great - one is an self-proclaimed hippie and proud, the staff are very down to earth and the work will suit me just fine. They even asked when I wanted to work, so I was able to fit my day around DD's school schedule and everything. I am taking this as a very positive sign

Thank you all again for your encouragement and support - it makes these tough times so much easier

Now, for step 2 of the new and improved me: off to sign up for some computer classes...

Thanks guys I am really thrilled, and I hope things keep looking up from here.

As for computer classes - probably Excel and Access to brush up my software skills (I learned the DOS versions!). Then into some web development and basic hardware stuff. DH always took care of all that end of things, I'd just plug in my laptop and type/surf. Now I need to learn how to do it for myself. That's a good thing though - I need to learn to depend on myself

My first day is Jan 6, so I'll let you know how that goes... maybe I'll get a 5x5 cubicle to call my own I won't hold my breath though, lol!
