Well wouldn't you know it, I got a casual nursing job and I did my first shift today. I get home and the phone is wringing off the hook for embroidery work. Life is very strange indeed. lol.

Congrats on the new job, hope you can continue to have time for YOU and EMB. Hugs

Glad you did not have to wait too long for another job hope it goes well...soozie

Good on you Alice for getting the new job. With it and some embroidery work you will not know if you are coming or going. Good luck with both.

May more good things come to you!

Congratulations Alice I'm glad you got some nursing work. Also your orders for your embroidery work. It never rains but it pours came to mind. Good luck with all the options available. Love Chris

Enjoy your new job. Looks like you got a blessing with the order!

I hope you enjoy your new job and that you have time for both your job and your embroidery jobs...Gods blessing Alice

I am glad you were able to get a job so quickly. In your line of work there is always a demand for help. Hopefully you will find time to fill your embroidery orders as well.

Congratulations on the job Alice and I hope you've some time left for embroidery too. Have a great weekend

I hope you have so much productive and rewarding work that you have no time to worry! No too much to cause stress though. Kay

Life presents it's challenges, for sure. Congrats on the new job. Hope it's well paid and not too hard -and that you have enough enthusiasm left for embroidery in between shifts :)

Way to go - God is indeed good.

I agree but isn't it wonderful!

Great news Alice. So pleased about your nursing job.

Guess you can't ignore all these new possibilities. Congratulations on your new job.

Glad you got a job so fast. Sure is nice you also go calls for emb. work. Will definitely keep you busy.

Well congratulations on getting a job! Now you just need to go with the flow and enjoy whatever comes your way as icing on the cake. :-)))

Yep that is the way it often happens. Hope it will not stress you out.

Congratulations on the new job. Sometimes life gives us conflicting directions. It seems to be feast or famine. I too finally got a job after 15 months of unemployment. Today was my first day but when I got to there the street was lined with police and fire equipment. When I was able to get in I found that it was my new employer that had a fire this morning. I have a job but no place to work. Hopefully by next week some time they should have things cleaned up or moved to a temporary location. We will just have to see what happens.

Ohmygoodness, not a great start! I sure hope it's worth the delay when you eventually start this new job and you enjoy it.

Not the best first day!!! What do you do tomorrow or do you wait until next week?

Wow. what an interesting start to your new job. I hope they get it cleaned up soon.
So as not to bump this post to the top again, I am going to say a really big thank you for all of your well wishes. I really am very happy with the way things are going. I am only working a couple of days a week and will still have plenty of time for embroidery. Life is indeed looking very good for me at the moment, and I am so happy.

Very strange, one question did you enjoy your shift? If you are doing casual could you possible combine both nursing and embroidery. I still work full time and that is not much fun, as I only have weekends and nights to embroider but keeps me busy and out of trouble lol. Hugs Sally
