Bright and Shiney Day!

Today did not really start out as a promising day. I was feeling kind of gross, tired, not motivated to pop-up and run like I planned. Overall a slower start to the day than was intended, but in some ways fate meant for me to start slower today. Fate/God/Universe...whatever it may be...meant for me to still be home at 8:05 prepping for my run.

Why do I think this way? Because at 8:05 I got a phone call that just transformed my day. A certain Government Office, that I applied to many moons ago, and who over the last few weeks of stress and fear have been teasing me with their presence and possible employment, finally called. I got THE call I have been waiting on for over a week. The call to schedule an interview. Whew! I had been in such a high state of fear/concern the past few days and this call just gave me perspective. The Govt caller was very nice and said the best thing ever. Govt Office is VERY interested in people who can start "right away", and what better defines my life right now than that?

Nothing is certain, but this feels very right indeed. I'll still keep up my searches for jobs as a back-up, and I try to tell myself to settle down a little, but it's hard to do. Last week I tried on my suits, and since I have dropped close to 15 lbs in the last month an a half they fit better than ever and look great. I'm getting my haircut tomorrow to keep the style looking polished for the interview, and interview prep will start ASAP. Need to make sure I'm fully prepared to Wow the interview panel.

I'll still be on high alert until after my interview next week and the time it takes them to decide if I get an offer. Nothing is a guarantee, but I keep on smiling and feeling that my Pollyanna thoughts were right, things really do happen for a reason.
