Decision MADE easy

I got a call today that changed everything i was trying to figure out. ALL is good to go now. I am soooo happy.

Now to explain. You know that i HATED this job, right. Well i have been trying to think of how i could quit there and draw my unemployment. Cuz if you quit, then you would have a big waiting period before you can draw it. So i was dreading having to work at this job till the end of January. AND you all know that i have not been called back to work during the mini peaks they have in quite a few years. WELL...today Marcia and I took a test run up to the new building just to see how long it will take us to get there and a good route to take to get there. Which by the way was a pretty straight shot there. Easy to find and i think that maybe even i can drive it. It took us about an hour and ten to fifteen minutes to get there 0from here. But i digress. We stopped at IHOP on the way home and ate brunch. My phone rang so i answered it. It was Cis...my unit chief from IRS. She was making call back phone calls for the mini peak this month. She asked me if i would want to come back to work. I said....well ummm....yeah. She said you don't sound very convincing that you want to come back. I laughed then and said....well i am working at another job right now but have been trying to figure out how i could quit.....she laughed and said OH ok...lol And i asked her like 3 times if she was sure that she was supposed to be callin me back....she laughed at me and said Yes. SOOOOOO....i go back to work at IRS on the 17th for about 3 maybe 4 weeks...then when i get laid off again...i can draw my unemployment with no problems. They have raised the amount this year for the first time in many years....the max is now 275.00 a week(which wasn't much of a raise...but it helps) Also they have posted some more full time jobs on the board at IRS so i will apply for one of them again and see if i can maybe get one of them. So say a few prayers that i can this time.

It was fun seeing everyone last Sunday. Too bad we couldn't have visited longer. Uncle Chuck is fun to listen to.

Ok...i fell asleep before i posted this...i am so bad.

Good Luck too! Sorry didn't get to finish my first comment as Decovin was wanting to sit on Grandma's lap so I had to hurry.
