Last week has surely been placed at the top of the list for one of the most stressful week of my life. Starting from the last 2 posts of this blog. The interview and the job offer. Here is how the week went:
Monday: I was in Omaha helping Jenni get settled into her new home, painting and furniture shopping. After we went for a jog, Jenni made breakfast and I took a shower and then I got a phone call from the school that I had interviewed at saying that he was offering me the job!!! Jenni was prepared with sparkling grape juice and wine glasses. She started crying! All day we ran around like mad women on a mission, then Chawnta came and had dinner with us at the Cheese Cake Factory - yummmmm... We stayed up until 2 am painting.
Tuesday: Had to leave Jenni's to meet Davin in Ames due to the fact that when Jenni and I got into my car I realized that my gps and ipod were missing. That is right my car got broken into. They left my camera though. I was called by my doctor to tell me that my prolactin levels were still high and I was going to have to have an MRI to see if my pituitary gland was normal. We ran some errands and then got back to Jenni's house to put it back together. When we got back I realized that I did need to contact ISU about getting into classes. That is when they told me that their program would not work for me. I frantically called UNI to see if they could help me. Luckily they could and that I just needed to apply online and have my transcripts sent. Getting Union to send my transcripts was like pulling teeth. I got it all figured out though. Then I had to split with Elly to make it home in time to meet Davin. When I got home I had to apply for college.
Wednesday: All that and we are only on Wednesday. I had a dentist appt. at 8am. Davin drug me to go see a car that he had picked out since he found out I had a job. Yikes Davin wanted to buy a new truck, not just any truck but a Dodge Ram 1500. This led to us going to look at a smaller car which did not work out. We spent the whole afternoon at Ford, when I could have been taking a nap. I received an unusual amount of papers in the mail from the school district. I think that covers Wed.
Thursday: I had to mow the lawn, then I drove out to South Tama to fill out my paperwork and meet with the principal about the provisional license. He did not seem to think that there would be a problem. During all of this I was talking to a professor in the Special Ed program trying to get a course of study set up so that I could apply for the license. She finally got it to me about 3pm that day and I mailed it. Although when it came down to it I had to reapply for the Grad program and not the undergrad one. Dealership visits again. I decided to get a black or silver caliber.
Friday: I finished mowing and cleaned out the garage in prep for our new members of our Nicholas family (cars). Then I got ready for my trip to the MRI machine in Ames. Davin was a good husband and took the afternoon off. When I went in I told Davin that if anyone called me that he was not to answer, but did Davin listen? No he did not, I had to make a couple of phone calls to fix what he did. We had to go to the Library and fill out the Grad application, where I left my purse. Then we went to eat for lunch after the MRI. Headed home to work on the intrepid so that we could give it to Wayne with a clear mind.
All of that happened last week, if it sound stressful imagine if you had to do it.
