I finished my last back-to-work shift tonight! And as of midnight I now have more than enough hours to put towards my nursing hours to renew my RN License for 2009!
That's a huge load off of my mind!

I do my very first paid shift on Wednesday!!


The girls I worked with tonight had a little party for me. They all brought munchies to celebrate my milestone.

Thank you so much!!

I am proud! And thrilled! And relieved!

It's been a long 4 years and at one time everything in my life was an open book to all kinds of strangers from specialists to insurance companies and their liasons, transportation companies, homecare, and in the end, a bankruptcy trustee. Nothing in my life was private and I felt like I had no control over anything.

Piece by piece things started to fall into place after so many set backs.

Congratulations for not sitting around and moping about it, but getting through it and getting your life back on track again! What's the first thing you're going to splurge on?

Plus I finally found a purse at Bentley's. Soft leather, plain black without a bunch of; zippers, pockets, flaps and hardware! So it's much lighter than the one I was using which was a heavy leather with heavy hardware and some kind of heavy thing in the bottom all which added to the weight of the purse. Only $27.00! Here is a picture of it. It's longer and not as tall as my old one, so it's easier to find things in it. I have been looking for months for a new purse and I just couldn't find one that struck me. As soon as I saw this one I knew it was the one that I had been looking for.

Since I actually get a pay cheque on the 12th and I don't have to make my disability cheque last until the end of December, I went kind of hog wild at the mall on Friday and today. But I had fun. I don't usually like shopping, but for some reason today it wasn't so bad!

Good for you, you deserve it! I can't see link (I'm using my cellphone) but it sounds like my kind of bag too!

Edit: ahh there we go, now I can see it - very nice!
