I would humbly like to ask everybody here to pray for me this week...and pray for the people who are doing the deciding next tuesday morning.

was asked over the last five days to go into a private interview with the largest cardiac practice in my state...huuuuge.

THERE ARE ONLY TWO CANDIDATES THEY ARE INTERESTED IN...ONE IS ME. dunno who the other one is.

anyway, today was my interview with them. went in w/practice manager. i have interviewed with her earlier...2 years ago, and we were unable to make a go of the schedule at that time b/c of where i lived then and my son's school location. all has changed now and I am a good candidate in terms of not only experience and ability, but also b/c of proximity (huuuuge atlanta thing).

the interview was today after work, it went GREAT. at least i think so.

i so need this job...my pittance of alimony runs out next year and i get a laughable amount of child support (b/c darth lied about his income in all court docs and buried legal trails ). it is CONSIDERABLY MORE than the job i have now...which is good imho. THERE IS NO EMERGENCY CALL, WEEKENDS OR HOLIDAYS...which is what a single mom needs.
benefits are awesome. they cap the patient load each day and it is ABOUT ONE HALF OF MY LOAD NOW...which means less headaches, less stress, and no more 15 hr. workdays or call!

and I am salaried...and WHEN I GET DONE W/LAST PATIENT, I CAN JUST WALK OUT AND LEAVE! the present person with the practice in that job leaves about three pm each day. no overtime necessary. nothing.

and a biannual bonus based on practice earnings....

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PRAY THAT I AM BLESSED TO OBTAIN THIS POSITION.

it's been a hard road these last 3 years. this could be the place where I retire...it is awesome. there is room to grow...and plenty of opportunity to advance...and they are excited i am considering going back to school for mmsc degree too. i can continue working there in an expanded capacity also.

PRAYERS PLEASE? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

thank you my friend...thank you so much.

please lift me and little boy up...we need this so much!

i am so grateful for my present job...but this would solve so many of our problems...i so need this break. i need some of this stress, this horrid stress, that 2 years ago caused my bp to rise well above normal due to the stress to just go away...this would lift so much off of my shoulders and set us on a great path.

Congrats,

I believe you've already got the job.

Just in case, prayers will be provided.

In my estimation...you are due.

to my friends: the wondering family, foreverhers, confused42, miss m and all my mb friends...

that is the kindest thing you can ever do for me...to share a prayer.

my ds and i prayed tonight before bed and asked for this to happen.

thank you for lifting us up.

it's been a hard 3 years. very very hard. alot of picking up, dusting off, and still recuuperating from the whole "starting over again" thing...plus as you know xh messed with my financial history and made things rather difficult on the credit front. so I really need a good break so i can get ahead...things so far are beginning to turn around for ds a nd i. am on way to being financially stable, but have to have a few more good years first to get outta the rut xh dug for this family financially...except for fact he's perfectly set financially...

and i had almost shed a tear or two when i got in tonight and read the email forward from him...where he was sending me an evite to a large private singles' gathering. made my stomach lurch a bit i must say.

every day is a bit more healing...a bit more work...and a bit closer to great. almost there. it would be so wonderful to get this job...less stress and less financial pressures. i can't imagine how great it would be...i'd have half the patient load...could actually practice the art rather than crank out as many studies as i possibly can during the day....focus on patient centered studies as it is supposed to be.

tonight i sent a nice email to the practice manager thanking her for the time and for the interview...worded it very carefully. please pray God makes it happen!

i have a fifty/fifty shot <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I'll be praying for you, too, tonight. I'm about to go and have a long prayer time in the tub (don't laugh--only place I can get privacy, the noise of the water makes baby happy, and I can relax).

You've worked hard to get to this point, and I pray you are rewarded for your efforts.

I've already been praying for you. I can understand how important the RIGHT job is..

BEST WISHES FROM ME...

BTW, it is my belief. if this doesn't work out (which it most probably will), it wasn't meant to be and the BEST JOB for you is out there waiting...


I made it happen..a joyful life..filled with peace, contentment, happiness and fabulocity.

Dear God, Please enlighten the practice manager to weigh all of Peachy's attributes and realize that she is the right one for the position. Dear God, you know how much poor Peachy and her son have been through and I know in Your wisdom that You will see that it is her time now. Please continue to look down on her and her son and bring nothing but goodness to them.

Thank you, Carnation
