May. 20, 2009 - Work
It looks like I will be working 7-3 through June. It also appears that I will be getting about 37.5 hours per week, not per pay period. I don't know how long that will continue, but I'll take the hours as long as they want to give them to me! 
I had my first day in admissions today. I cannot believe how many screens you must go through to process admissions (even for something simple like an x-ray). 
It will take a long time to get used to the process. The gal who is training me is wonderful. I think we will get along really well.
One thing that is a huge blessing is that when I come home, I am not exhausted and hurting from having been on my feet the entire day. I cannot overstate what a huge blessing this is! I love having energy to work on the house, make cookies (like I did tonight), 
and take care of other things that need to be done.
One thing that may also be helping is that I bought some Energy Vitality from Sunspot to help with my energy levels. I don't have access to the coffee caffeine at work like I did here at home. 
I also haven't been sleeping well at night for many weeks, so I also got some Stress Relief, which should ease a lot of the stress I've been feeling. My stress level has dropped a bunch, simply because I know we have some money coming in. Now I just need to get my body to revert back to sleeping all night. 
Tomorrow will be the first day I go in at 7AM. I will have to be up around 4:50. That will be a stretch. However, with not sleeping well, I have been waking up between 4-4:30 for several weeks, and I rarely get back to sleep. I think perhaps the Lord was prepping my body to adjust to getting up that early so that it won't be such a jolt to my system. Isn't it grand how God sees things in advance and prepares us for them, even when we have no idea on what is taking place?
FYI -- May 21 will be our 21st wedding anniversary.

Happy Anniversary! I hope your new job works well and that it continues to be a happy place for you.
After reading your other post, I hope that, somehow, you'll be able to continue home schooling...but that decision is a long way away, isn't it?
