Today I got official notice that I got the job I've been praying for. I'm going to be a reference librarian at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory Research Library. There are no words for the happiness and relief that I feel. I'll be working with an amazing group of people, doing what I love. I'll be able to have just *one* full-time job. I'll have benefits. I'll be able to spend more time with my dear husband. I'll be able to start exercising again. I will be able to rest, and to develop professionally, and to challenge myself. I am so excited. I truly feel blessed. God is so amazing- He knows the contents of our hearts. I am so grateful. ♥ I could go on and on, gushing about how thrilled I am, but I don't want people to think I am bragging. I still know people that are hurting as they look for a job that they can love, or even just a job at all. So I will stop gushing, but please don't take that as an indication that I am ungrateful, or not excited. I just want to respect the struggles that others are going through. I am truly humbled by the kindness of others.
In unrelated news, my best friend has gotten another art contract. Go, Chrissy! You Da Woman! *pumps fist in the air* I gotta say, Chrissy is a phenomenal artist, and so deserving. :)
Hmmm, what else is new? Oh, husband and I got our new furniture last week, and it's awesome. It makes me look forward to being home. Funny how "little things" in life can make things pleasant or unpleasant. Oh, also, my little kitty, Kenobi, has been getting into trouble. Turns out he loves carbs. He's broken into our box of cheezits and done some damage there. He tore into a new loaf of bread, bit my package of poptarts.... he's a carb addict! He takes after me in that regard, I guess. :p
Well I am on cloud nine, but I've got things I need to accomplish, so I'd better get back to the grindstone. God Bless!
