A couple of weeks ago a senior position was going at my work so I applied and was shortlisted for an interview! So a couple weeks later I am waiting to go in, having done the written test and a shit load of preparation, and am literally shaking! (I'm not great in interview panels) but I came out really positive having done my best and headed home to finally relax.
A couple hours later my managers number flashes up on my phone, I was thinking maybe I had left something at work as I wasn't expecting to hear back until a few days, nope! She called to inform me that all the interviews had been done and she would like to offer me the position..... I GOT THE JOB!
Pretty sure I squealed down the phone haha, she then went on to say that I was heads and shoulders above the rest and I should be really pleased :) so I'm officially a senior from the start of February and so happy! A lot more responsibility though, I will be working with management a lot more and mentoring new staff as well as existing support workers! I'm sure I will find my place soon as u guess it's hard to do that when stepping up to a new position, and I know I will have the support of everyone at work! Needless to say I went out straight away to celebrate! A few bottles of wine later ( with good company :) My friends all came out to celebrate with me and a few hours later went to bed with the room spinning haha! Well it was a celebration after all :D
Two of my close friends recently got engaged as well, who I could not be happier for! so we have been celebrating the occasion as well as some birthdays! Some other things are maybe too soon to mention also but appear to be positive too and I'm pretty happy :)
Holiday planning is well underway as well, which is great as I get to spend time with my girls :) only downside is that yet again my driving has taken a back seat.... As I am now saving for the holiday as well as paying back my loan.... I really could do with a money tree!! :)
As for the diabetes... I don't think iv actually moaned about it in a while! Iv had a couple of hypos but that's it really, not been bothering me too much and iv had my mind on other happy things....
I can honestly say this could be the happiest I have been in ages :)
