This morning I had an interview at the college for the cultural center via the work-study program. I was upfront about my disabilities, and knew it would be (at most) 20 hours a week. I spent a good 75 minutes speaking with her. At the end of the interview, I asked if I could be notified one way or the other (this was at 11:30am) if I was selected for the position. She said that she had several more interviews, but she would call me (either today or Monday). I just got a call from her about 30 minutes ago and she offered me the position! I have to go in on Monday to fill out the paperwork and authorize a background check. At least this will be something that I can put on my resume. I've been without work for 17 1/2 years, so I am happy about this. Because it is via the work study, I am limited to the maximum hours I can work (20), the amount of the work study grant ($1875) and the actual time - about mid December. I believe that this will help me out in more ways than one. Just say a prayer that EVERYTHING will work out for me!!  Thank you Lord!!!

Thanks so much Jon...only thing is, I have classes on Thursday night from 6-9 so I won't be able to come to the support meetings.  I really wanted to....but perhaps being busy will help me in outher ways!!!

Congradulations Rhonda,  I know personally how it feels to be back in the work force, myself it was 10 years since I've worked.  It surely makes a person feel worth while. Good luck with the new job. Kathy A.

This is a BIG step for me, especially since I have not worked in almost 17 1/2 years.....that's one of the reasons why we SHOULD have a party at Kevin's!!!
