I just got home from my job interview and I think it went well. I hope it went well. The position still sounds really interesting. It is working for an advanced care hospital which is a hospital where patients go who no longer need to be in a regular hospital setting but are still not well enough to go home or to a long term care facility. The have therapy services there, ventilator weaning and stuff like that. The position would be assessing patients in a hospital setting to see if they would qualify for this facility and working with doctors and other health care professionals to show what the hospital does. It's a new facility in the area and the only one that does this kind of thing in the area. So, there is some patient care or interaction I guess I should say. I still am not sure. We didn't discuss wages and realistically, I can't afford to take a pay cut at all. It's also a lot farther from my home. I currently drive 6 miles to work and this is 30. While I realize that to many 30 miles isn't that big of a deal, I still don't love it. I would also have to buy a whole new wardrobe basically as it's business attire of which I have none. The person who interviewed me said it would be a couple of weeks still before they make any further decisions so I won't know for a while yet. Another good thing is that the hours are great. It's basically Mon-Fri 8-5 which would be a lot better for daycare once I have a baby. Plus, not having to worry about working holidays would be nice once I have a baby. So, I wait some more.
Not much else is going on here. I am back to work tonight and have been up all day so I should be really good and tired tomorrow morning. I have managed to mostly get my house clean and Christmas stuff put away for another year. I still have never gotten a peak on my CBFM. Is it possible to have all of the signs (CM, opk, CBFM and temp) line up at the same time so that I am very clear on ok, I ovulated here? I guess that is what I'm looking for and so far, I haven't gotten that. Am I crazy to want that before I spend several hundred dollars on sperm and doctor assissted IUI?? Oh boy, if I'm this crazy now I think I may really be in trouble once I actually reach the actual IUI and following TWW.

I'm so glad the interview went well! It's good to have options, of course the "right" options are key! As far as TTC, you want all your signs to line up?!! I bet they might... occasionally... once a year or something. My temps are a slow rise & often fall back, so it's confusing. But if I've got an OPK & CBFM or OV-Watch & CM, I feel like I've won the jackpot!! (Hell, I might as well stop temping, but what would I do if I didn't wake up every single morning at 6 am?? I think I might miss it too much...) Good luck sorting it all out and getting comfortable with it!! You'll be okay.
Wow Michell that job sounds really interesting. I would really think about the commute though. I drive about 33 miles to work everyday and while it was not a big deal in the beginning it really starts to become draining. But if everything else about the job is good, then the commute can be handled! I think hours are more important than commute anyway, thats why I stay with the job I have! Everyone is different. Good luck with the job hunt :)
Just wanted to wish you luck with the news of your interview!
Career choices.....so many thoughts go through your head. I wish you best of luck making your Choices. I can't wait to hear what you decide in the next weeks. As far as TTC cycle charting goes...insanity is the name of the Game!
