Day 72: Euphoria

This is the late entry for Thursday.  It was such an emotional roller coaster of a day, I needed the chance to sleep on everything before thinking a touch more clearly.  I am still in disbelief.  I got my first true job offer yesterday.  I am beyond excited, too.  I still feel like I should interview a couple other places, but I so love the team where I am that it would have to be a "too good to be true" offer from somewhere else to tear me away from Winston.  It's a little overwhelming right now thinking about my sister's wedding in a few weeks, LOML and my wedding in a few months, interviewing for jobs, contract negotiation, etc.  I feel a little more confident in myself, but I think it's going to be quite some time before I feel completely settled.  I am glad to have LOML by my side through all this.  I am thankful that we have somehow balanced out when each of us are stressed so that we're not stressing out at the same time.

I also talked with the counselor at group about my worries from my last post.  He referred to my concerns as "signs of growth" and that I was the only person who had truly kept coming back to continue to grow.  I will likely finish out the month, if possible, with going to group weekly, and hopefully by that point will have completed the extra training in addiction medicine treatment that I am doing.  I am honestly not sure how I will use it at this point, but I will see where the road leads me.

Currently taking things one day at a time because there is so much that I need to do.  As they saw, onward and upward.
