February 10th....

will be my LAST day of being a nanny! I FINALLY got a job in my field!!!!! I am super excited! I was offered the Research Assistant position at Duke University Medical Center this morning!!! I have been interviewing for this position since Dec. 18th and have gone in 2x since then for interviews. I feel relieved, excited, nervous, scared and many other emotions right now but I know its finally my time to start my career and live up to my full potential. I have been ready since graduation last May to work in my field but with the economy the way it has been, it has been very hard to find a job. I have been very patient but these past few weeks have been very difficult. Not knowing if I was even in contention for the job was nerve racking but I also kept thinking "what if...I don't get the job...". No other jobs had been coming up and I felt that if I didn't' get the job, my patience with the kiddos was already wearing thin, not getting the job would clearly make me lose my mind. But everything worked out the way it was supposed to, thank goodness. I finally feel as though my life is on track; I have awesome friends and family, a great guy and now a job doing what I have always wanted to do; helping others become healthy.....Thank you God for your many blessings, I am truly blessed.
