I got a part time job
Haven't been on much lately.
And I haven't had a job in almost 6 years (since mom died).
Dh is still working in the social services field and holds a full time and part time job. I feel really bad and have wanted to get a job or start my own business (don't have the self esteem or courage).
Dh is going into graduate school and may have to take off next summer.
In college I was a certfied nurse's aide (long story) loved it but never considered it for an occupation.
I applied for a third shift part time job at a nursing home for mr patients less than 2 miles away from our house.
I will be cleaning, baking and doing laundry those nights.
I know it doesn't sound like much, but I am really excited. The owner new my exboss from college days and hired be on the spot.
I can't say what a confidence booster this is for me personally
I thought dh would say 'no' because of all that I went through emotionally with my last job.
But he was supportive and he said this time if anything does not sit right mentally we will discuss it and whether I should stay there. Sounds like I'm a nut case huh? lol. I also reminded him he might be off next summer and we will need the income.
I'm at a happy place right now.
I'm also starting online as a virtual assistant, but we'lll see how that goes.
That's great, Marg! Good for you for taking that step. I'm glad you're excited about it; It sounds like you needed something to be excited about. I really hope it works out for you!
Congratulations! It sounds like a great situation.

That's wonderful, Marg! You've been through a lot with a bad boss (if I remember correctly), so I hope these people are upstanding people who will take care of you! Good luck and let us know how your first day goes!
Terrific, Marg! and equally terrific that dh is so supportive. Give him a hug for me, too.
Thank you ladies.
I can't tell you what this support means to me.
Besides dh and dds I really have no one
I was really scared but now I'm really excited.
She is really nice about the schedule, I can really only train 6 hours a day (due to 1 vehicle, dh's schedule and our dds).
I'm scared but yet this has given me back a little self esteem.
Thanks Ginny. Because of my last job, too much was not done on both my part and dh. He deeply regrets he did not confront my boss, although I'm afraid my husband would have just knocked him out.
So now he is overprotective, but I know deep down he feels a little relief there are two incomes.
Once again I thank all of you ladies you are very dear to me.
Good luck with the new opportunity!
Hey GOOD LUCK! You know that GOD opens doors for us and we owe it to ourselves to walk through them and take a chance.
Good Luck! I hope it is everything you expect...and MORE!
CONGRATS!
