Finally


So Today started out Bad and I mean horrible. I woke up and emailed the reciter for Baylor and the manager in Labor and Delivery and the manager in NICU. I got a quick reply from the manager in L and D, she apologized for the delay for the decision but that I should hear something from the recruiter by midweek. I then got a reply from the recruiter saying they were perusing other applicants. I was crushed to say the least. I started bawling. Then my Dad calls from Switzerland to see how things are. I had been kinda moody to say the least. I had gained some composure to answer the phone but of course my Daddy could tell something was wrong and asked and the waterworks started again. I started being dramatic and saying that I had failed and why doesn't anyone want me. It sort of felt like the Labor and delivery department had broken up with me as ridiculous as that sounds. He calmed me down slightly telling me I could get a job in a nursing home which obviously didn't really help. But we talked for a while and I hung up feeling slightly better. However after I hung up I just lost it and cried for a good 20 minutes then  I decided I was done crying and would move on with my day. It was a very organized moaning period. I then made lunch for drew and I ( tuna helper) and then started reviewing for finals/ NCLEX with my hurst review. I was a normal human being by the time that Drew got home from class.

I left for Houston around 4 o'clock. I called my step mom to tell her I was leaving Waco and we talked about how I was having trouble trusting in God but he has a plan and sometimes you have to wait for everything to unfold to see what he was thinking, I just needed to trust him. Our call was interrupted by my mom who was calling to check up on me and I told her about not getting the job and she of course encouraged me and told me I was gonna find a job just be patient. Then Taylor intrupted that call to see if I was on my way  and I told her I didn't get the job and we talked about why I thought this was a failure to me ect... Then I called my step mom back because I had to ask her several questions about my suit and this week. While I'm on the phone I get a call from a 817 number not one I recognize so of course I answered. It was Amy ( the Baylor Recruiter)

Amy- hello, is Elisabeth there?
Me- Yes this is she
Amy- Hi Elisabeth, this is Amy , I think i send you an email by accident today and the NICU at all saints called me and wanted to extend an offer to you?
Me- what ? wait the NICU at all saints
Amy- Yes, The NICU at Baylor All Saints would like to extend an offer for a GN-RN Position in their NICU ,would you like to accept or have you accepted a different position?
Me- ( my voice is literally shaking from excitement) Yes, i would love to accept
The conversation goes on to discuss the details such as pay, start date June 18, and she would send me an email with all the information blah blah and then at the end she said



Congratulations Elisabeth and Welcome to Baylor!
