Today I went on a job interview for a Billing Associate position and it went really good! I would love to land this job, because there’s so much about it that I like: the hours, position, job duties, office location, pay, benefits, everything… the lady who interviewed me said that I may hear back today if I get a second interview, yaay!! I passed the Online assessments and feel I did well with the questions, so I’m going to claim my victory and know I’m gonna get that call later There aren’t many jobs available here! A huge call center that I could have applied at, closed a while back.  I’m going to apply at a few other places while I wait, but really hoping for this job…

After the interview I hurriedly stopped for gas, and had a DUH! moment…. I had called in a special song request for “I Run To You” by Lady Antebellum as soon as I’d gotten back in my car…. and as luck would have it, they played it the second I pulled up to the pump lol.. so I left the key on and the song full blast After pumping the gas, I tried to start my car. Nothing! A nice old man stopped and offered me a jump. Even after he hooked up the jumper cables nothing happened when I turned the key. I was worried.. I had just recenly had the alternator rebuilt and I was starting to get upset that they hadn’t done a good job.. The man worked on the battery connections for several minutes then told me he would try to turn the ignition. When he sat in my car, I heard him start to chuckle… I asked What was so funny.. and he pointed at my gear shifter…  I had left my car in DRIVE when I turned if off.. so of COURSE the ignition wouldn’t turn over!! LOL He put the car in PARK and it started fine.. Boy were my cheeks red, LOL!!!  (Face Palm!) The old man told me he didn’t mind helping and was glad it was something as simple as that.. and he tried real hard not to laugh, bless him LOL!!

Anyway… *GIGGLE* I’m really excited after my interview! Because of support and prayers from my family, friends, all of you Twitter Buds, and especially my BMF @ReconChesty >< I walked in confidence today. I may stumble, I may fall, but my loved ones are here to help me, and I appreciate that!!!  Thanks for your prayers! I know 2010 is going to be a great year for me. I know God’s favor is coming on me in new ways, and that I’m going to come out of this stronger than ever, and happy!  So many changes have been going on in my life, that I don’t wish to detail.. just suffice it to say that I’ve started a brand new chapter and I’m so excited. I’m determined to make my children proud of me, as I learn to be independent again. I hadn’t been on my own in – wow – 17 years.. but I know I can do this because I have the best support system!

Thanks again for your friendship everyone. Means more than you know! I’m going to start blogging again now that things are starting to plane out for me personally. I’ve missed Blogging! Actually, I just thought of a topic for my next blog so stay tuned

Hugs~ Debbie
