So sorry that I have not written yet. I am finally feeling settled down here in the south. I wanted to update you all on what my new job is. As you know I was going to be working at Starbucks, but it seems like God has different plans for me. :)
I went two Wednesdays ago to find a Chiropractor (boy was i needing an adjustment after 12+ hours in the car!) I wanted to check out this place called Alive Chiropractic, because they said they used the Gonstead Method. I decided that I wanted to see the clinic up close in person before making an appointment. I walked up to Randi their CA and started asking her questions about who they are and what they do. In the process I also explaining to her how I have worked at the most amazing clinic for the last three plus years, and why it was so important to me that they practice the Gonstead Method. Well, once I said that she looked at me and said....do you need a job?
I didn't need a job, which is what I explained to her, because I was supposed to start on the following Thursday with Starbucks (which is actually about a 25 minute drive with no traffic on their busiest road in all of Virginia Beach, go figure...a drive that I was told in the summer would take me about an hour, no fun at all.) The funny thing about Starbucks is that they keep having to delay my start date, because of family stuff with the manager, so he wouldn't put me in their system yet...
Since I hadn't officially started, and my curiosity got the best of me I asked her what they were looking for....well wouldn't you know it, they are looking for a CA for their desk and also someone to help them with Marketing (Internet and Community)!
I looked at my Dad, who came with me, and before I could get two words in, I was introduced to Dr. Jason's wife, and two boys, and then Dr. Jason sat me down in his office and interviewed me for 30 minutes. I have explained to him that there are no guarantees to my length of time here, because of Chris' possible deployment, but I would make sure that he had plenty of time to replace me if necessary.
I went back in last Monday for my New Patient consultation and also my official interview, and GOT THE JOB! I started last Tuesday at 11.
God is really funny... I had no intention of working at another clinic, at least not for a while, but it is seeming like this is really where I need to be. This is such an answer to prayer in so many ways, the office is closer to my apartment, I will be making more, and receive Chiropractic care as a benefit! Which helps me with my finances a ton! And, this will put me in a group of people who already live a healthier lifestyle, and get my weirdo ways ;)
I miss you all up north and think of you often!
