been a whole month since being fired for being out too much

due to my fibromyalgia. I did file for unemployment, and according to their

scales I was to get a whopping $348 a week. Woo Hoo! That doesn't even cover

daycare expenses for my two, which is over $400 a week. But, MedAssurant

decides to fight my getting unemployment, as it makes it's rates go up on

their unemployment insurance. I was sent a notice for an appointment time,

that I had to remain at home for, by the phone. She and I were on the phone

over an hour. When I told her why I was fired, she didn't believe me, so I

read her the letter from the company firing me. She was dumbfounded! I also

had to explain what fibromyalgia was, and even spell it for her. Well over

the last three weeks, the state found in my favor, I got a check for the

last three weeks, I've only had two small flares, gone back to church, and I

got hired for my dream job! I will be working in property management again,

for a smaller PM company. While I have been hired as the Leasing Consultant,

I've been told that after my 90 days they will more than likely go ahead and

promote me to site/property manager, which I will be doing the job managing

the property anyways. I love my new boss. She's even going to take me

shopping to pick out things to update the lounge (It's a college community),

set the hours for the office, etc. She also has a son my son's age, and due

with her second child. The company is going to put me through industry

certification in March, too.

I'm so excited! I'm taking a lot of supplements, particularly the B vitamins

(Thank You, !), and have more energy.

Well, gotta run!

Catch you guys later!
