Interviews

What a day I have had! I have been working toward finding a legal position for about 2 weeks now. I had sent out resumes and now the phone calls are coming in. It is so exciting! I have been out of the work force for about 5 years, and was a nanny for 6 years before that. It was an exciting position, and I always thought I would eventually become a teacher...but after having three kids it just seemed to be enough of the training and devlopement...and of kids! I needed to find something more...something different to add to my life. I have thrown myself into achieving a pre-law degree, and now the next step: finding a position that can highlight my abilities and give me the right experience in the field. It is a challenging task, but exciting too. Today was day one of the interviewing, and I got two offers. Nothing amazing, but offers are good! I have a big one tomorrow. It is a firm downtown St Louis and a well known one. A number of attorneys I know said they were a great group to interview with, so I am thrilled I will get the opportunity! It is so nice to be living my life as "Susie" some of the time again...and mom or wife the other part. I don't want any of the joys of my life to be weakened, but I sure do look forward to developing my own personal identity again! Life is good today. =)

I'm so jealous! I was searching for a job FOREVER before I got any offers. My luck though is that after I accepted my first offer, I had two more the same week. Arg!

GOOD LUCK!
