Wow! I am really getting into this whole I thing. I feel so much more positive just thinking in this mind frame now!!!

I was looking online and there is also a book called "The Law of Attraction: Basic Teachings of Abraham" have you heard of it? I am trying to figure out whether to get the Secret or this one..lol.

You can watch the Secret online for $4.95. I JUST bought it and am going to watch tonight.

Also I think you can listen the recordings of Abraham-Hicks for free on the website. I happen to have the site open now too :).

I have only seen The Secret video. I think I'd buy The Secret rather than the other right now.

When I spoke to the Superintendant of the school he asked if I could come in and have a chat he didn't call it an interview...it kind of hit me weird after some thought. I guess it's because I haven't been to a job interview in at least 8 years. What do they ask nowadays?

Jen, this is great news! What about a 180...try not to divulge to much about what you are doing till it's done. I will never forget calling my husband and telling him in Feb.

M: Hey, I quit my job today (I worked as a preschool teacher)
H: WHAT?
M: Yea, remember last week (in your fog) when I said I would need to go back to school so I can get a different job so I can support myself? You said to do it and that it sounded great and that you would support me while I did that because it would be a better life for the kids and me.....
H: (hesitating) Yea
M: Well, I enrolled in college..it will take me about 4 years to get the degree I want as I have to take all math and sciences over because it's been more than 10 years since I took it in college. I can enroll in Nursing School in 2 years.
H: (real hesitation now) Yea
M: Well, I need about $1400 to get started on the semester and it starts in two weeks. I am so excited and you are so generous to let me do this...thank you so much....I really appreciate it....I would have never done this without this push.
H: (stammering now) uumm yea, that's a good idea...we should have done this a long time ago. We've talked about it for years.
(Notice he was saying we now, I kept saying I...little things)
M: Yea, well whatever what's been done is done and however this goes this is such a positive thing for me and I am so excited. Talk to You Later. Click

I WAS SCARED OUT OF MIND TO GO DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT

I will tell you at this point in the S I had not eaten one bite of food in over 4 weeks and lost 14 lbs in 13 days by my dr.s scale. I was sleeping an average of 1.5 hours a night and messed up pretty bad...I was having panic attacks for the first time but I started doing 180's and started DBing because that was the first conversation we had that he seemed not in control of and perplexed by my behavior. I saw the cheeseless tunnels I had been going thru at that point and it wasn't working anymore. I kept throwing curvballs like that at him.....one weekend he called on a SAt. to see the kids, of course, couldn't make those plans the night before so I told him

M: Oh we are going hiking up in the Olympic mountains today. There's a hike I've been wanting to do.
H: Who are you going with?
M: Oh I'm just taking the kids alone because it's such a good time to have conversation with them as there are no other distractions...you know how they are.
H: (quietly)Yea
M: Alrighty I'll have the kids call you when we get back
H: Do you want me to go with you?
M: (nonchalantly) uumm sure if you want that would be great...the kids would like that very much.
H: I don't want to intrude on your time with them
M: Oh, I see them all the time so it's no intrusion today at all

Note: I was scared shitless to go walking in the mountains here alone in WA with my kids...what with the bears, mountain lions, and freaks.....but you know what? I was going to do something outside of my comfort zone but I was really happy that he went, but I was going either way. I stopped asking him to do stuff and he started asking to go with us. That's when you know your on the right tunnel....baby steps and I will say hind sight is 20/20

I never can figure out how to get across the point I am trying to make but the 180's are not for them...they are for you.

If it makes you uncomfortable as hell or feeling scared it's a 180 and your on the right track. Talk about a mental boost even if you fail the 180 you took a risk and it feels great...and man if you succeed the feeling is the best thing ever.

Sandy...you are an awesome Dber!! I love the hiking in the mountains. I need to try something a little more adventurous/different with D.

I told him about the interview for 2 big reasons. One is an alumni of the school and this job is Coordinator of Alumni Relations and I need a ride since it's not that close \:\) If and when I start working there I'll deal with PT and not use him.

What types of questions should I expect tomorrow and what should I ask?

I agree 100% with you on the 180s...they are for us not the WAS. Of course if they take notice even better.

Great news Jen, someone wanting you is always great for getting you into full DBing mode.

As far as interview questions, I can't imagine that they change too much overall thru the years.

Sometimes I think they present questions to see if they can bait you into a negative response or see if it's easy to throw you off. Kinda like men do when they're first dating you to see how you respond, so answer with something positive.

There are probably great tips online of you google interview skills.

Great job on taking the bull by the horns.
