Life lessons

Oh what a joy life is right now. I feel like I am on a rollercoaster, I am up and down. So much going on right now its hard to figure out where to start.

For the past 6 years of our marriage we have been inactive at church. People change, congregation changes, and the ward leadership has changed so we decided to put things behind us and change our life. We started going to church whenever I could muster up a day off, or Will would go alone. After Will begged and pleaded for months and begged and pleaded with my work, and talked to the Bishop about convincing me to take the leap of faith to reduce my hours at work and attend church I finally gave in. Will won the battle of going to church, I had little faith in him following thru on attending church and trying to get rebabtized. I had given up ever getting sealed in the temple years ago. Well, its been about 8 months or so and I have seen thru our faith our family unit is slowly getting stronger, our life has been happier, and Will has been following thru, he has been going to church. The babtism for him is in the near future! BUT, we still have 1 hurdle- put the faith in God that I will get full days off Sunday. That is in our prayers every night, and a big desire for us. When we started going to church I got my schedule changed so I can attend but now I had to put my Sunday Night family dinners on hold.
Then a huge prayer happened. Will and I agreed months ago that I would not actively search for a job but if one came about that we heard I would apply. A lady thru the ward said her job was looking for an admin assistant. Wage is more than I make now, plus about 6+ hours a week than what I have now. Sundays off, the company is owned by an LDS family so guarenteed Sundays off (business is closed). Ding ding ding, a prayer answered. The HR manager got back to me right away, I got a group interview.... Now this is where the rollarcoaster begins. I am waiting, a LONG wait to hear back. References are being checked, but a reference or two (or more) is unable to get a hold of the HR manager, my job isnt working with the new job as well like I thought. So stress is building anxiety is building and now I am waiting..... Oh, how I hate the waiting games. So, please, pray for me, I need all the prayers I can get right now! This is a big step for me. Its a new one that I havent gone thru in 7 years. I havent done an interview or anything in 7 years. So, heres to the prayers that all will be well. If not, I look at the few lessons I have learned in this experience and take it to heart.
