Hooray! I started my new job last week! I had forgotten how hard it is to start over… but I think the job itself is going to be really great. I will definitely write more about it soon. I am incredibly grateful that God brought this my way. So I started my job on Tuesday of last week… and then Lance and I got tickets to the Cowboys-Giants game on Sunday (FANtastic!)… and THEN on Monday night, I woke up in the middle of the night (rare for me) feeling icky. Really icky. I mean super icky. And THEN I started throwing up. Now, to the average bear, throwing up may be no big deal… but the Tuerck genes in me have taught me that there is no greater evil in the world than throwing up. I haven’t… well, HADn’t… thrown up in 5 years… and I threw up then for two reasons: 1. appendicitis and 2. coming out from under anesthesia. Anyway, I felt absolutely rotten all day yesterday and even had to call into work sick… YES, ON DAY SIX OF MY NEW JOB. Awful waffle. Sweet husband of mine took amazing care of me… bought me Sprite and chicken noodle soup… rubbed my neck and back which were amazingly sore from my apparently latent throwing-up muscles… dealt with me and my crazy emotions. Anyway, I am feeling better today – 3 Sprites, 3 cans of chicken noodle soup, 20 crackers, and a slice and a half of bread later. Anyway, I’m always playing catch up in this blog thing… but for now, suffice it to say that I am enjoying my new job, happy to not be sick anymore, and probably going to bed in like 30 minutes. Oh, and my abs are super sore. Like I sneezed today and almost cried. Okay that’s it. Peace out yo.
I stand in awe! December 4, 2008
I am absolutely astounded by my heavenly Father today. On Monday, I got a phone call requesting that I come in for an interview on Wednesday. So… Wednesday at 11:00, I go in for my interview… and then asked me to come back Friday. All righty – Friday it is. THEN the lady calls me back on Wednesday afternoon and asks me to come in Thursday morning instead. I went in this morning for a second interview… and this afternoon, they called and OFFERED ME THE JOB! Holy cow! Two weeks of unemployment… and I have a new job already! Literally, I applied for this job FOUR HOURS after I was let go… and I had been fretting ever since that icky Friday morning, and God was working way before I had any inkling of what could be going on. What a mighty God I serve! I am so thankful and so excited and kind of nervous and amazed and completely in awe… and I know that this entire post just kind of spilled out all over itself – but praise God! His faithfulness is incredible! I’m so blessed to be his little girl!
