I've been determined to do the job search until I was hired. I did the searches online. Nothing. I did the foot work. They told me to fill out applications online. Again nothing. So if all else fails, pray. That's what I did. Last night before bed, Charlie and I held hands and prayed for a job, any job.
This morning was going as normal. I got the kids off to school. I made plans to go grocery shopping, pay the bills and continue to apply for jobs. Then the doorbell rang. I wondered who this could be. I even contemplated not answering it. But something inside told me to get up and see who it was ringing my bell at 9am. It was my neighbor, Johnny. I thought to myself, "What now?" Johnny likes to come over and talk... a lot. Still I answered the door. He said some magical words, "Are you looking for a job?" I asked myself, "What in the world?" He continued to tell me how his wife was needing help at her job and was looking to hire someone. She works at a private school in the cafeteria and runs the place. I'd only have to work while the girls were in school and I'd be home before they got home. I wouldn't work nights, weekends, holidays or the summer but I'd still be paid for the summers. My dream job. I was hired on the spot and start work tomorrow.
Not only did I get the job, I got the pay and the hours I most desired. Plus the work isn't hard and my boss is nice. My angel was my neighbor this time.
