Where am i at

Well much is in the process of changing at work. My director who i abolutely adore and admire and has taught me so much is leaving- for good reasons. I nearly had a coronary.  This boss totally gets me. he appreciates my knowledge and contribution at work at the same time respects my work life balance. This is huge to me. I am a wife, a mother, a sister, a person, a friend.  All these things support me and make me the best i can be.  I really wanted my CNo to know I wanted to be part of the decision making tree for the person who is coming in. I met with my CNO let he know about the surgery that was scheduled for June( good by ta-ta's)  and how i wanted to really be part of the choosing process.  She agreed with me. I was so happy. And the fact that she assured me that cough, cough would never get the job only reaffirmed my respect for the people i work for. I really wish i had more experiience under my belt. I would love to apply for this position, but i really don't know my ass from my elbow on finance stuff and at times i don't want to bring people down. My CNO did say had it been 9 months down the line- i would be ready- but he fact of the matter- its out there and i know ultimately i am who they want for this job.  Makes me feel good.. really good.

BTW during it she says.. "Francesca i want you to compete in the half Iron man in Austin in Oct... " you know what depending on how my surgery goes.. i just might... i just might.. can you imagine.. half iron man- holy shit..
