Cautiously optimistic...
I can't help it. I'm excited. Cautiously so, very cautiously, but excited. Some good things may be happening very soon. I'm trying to keep my mind occupied on solid facts, not on possibilities. But, it is hard not to formulate my little plans. It's also hard not to become impatient with the slow movement of time and the persistent non-ringing of the telephone. I will try to keep focused on the tasks at hand. Not think or worry too much about events that are not currently within my control. Try not to compulsively check my home email account 400 times a day.

And as far as trying to control the "obsessively checking the home email 400 times a day" thing--you know that you can't control that. I'd be the same....thinking that if I sneak up on the "check email" button that the magic correspondence I'm looking for will pop up in the inbox. It's just a little angst-inducing not knowing what will happen, and knowing that we still have a fair amount of stuff to do HERE first...and that my beloved hubby may be hundreds of miles away while I'm stuck in the armpit of hell until the house sells...oh, my eye is beginning to twitch. And there's a funny metallic taste in my mouth. And a buzzing in my ears.

To Stephen:
I greatly appreciate the words of encouragement, especially considering that the last post I made to your blog, I accused you of compulsively touching yourself in a special way. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
To Chauntelle:
I wouldn't worry unless you start smelling burning toast in places where neither bread nor toasters are located.

Cusin P-cat, I have recently been thru the same. And now we are looking to also move..not outta state but still I now the stress that comes along with all the waiting I also ccome by the obsessive compulsive honestly...I tell you what though all the waiting really paid off I didn't get stuck with some real crummy staffing job/ secretary I am now a software tech and up grader so you know it is hard to believe that if it was meant to be it will. But I wauted a month for the other job that had hired me to give me a start date and then they never came thru but this one did with $4 more an hr than what they were gonna give me so Pooky hang in there...A BIG ONE WILL BE A COMMIN'

I still think there are good things...the VPs said that they'd let P-Cat know one way or the other, and I may be naive but I do believe people when they say that they'll let you know. Just because you think that background checks, or whatever, should only take 20 minutes, doesn't mean that they don't want you. Only that it may be taking longer than it normally does...or there may have been something major that happened that took their attention away from hiring new people.... I know something good will happen...
And I love you.
