CantSleepClownsWillEatMe's blog: "Broken"

I am so thrilled right now I could scream and dance! Omg, did I really say that? Yes, I did!!!

Having had my name on the list for the shelter here in town as well as a transitional place, the transitional place just called!!!! I have a one on one interview there tomorrow.

Some of the things she told me during the phone interview included:

• its a clean and sober house
• 10 women living there (beats the shelter of 80)
• Currently they have 2 openings :)
• You need to be there at 6pm M-F for dinner and case mgmt
• random UAs and BAs (bring it on!)
• assigned some type of chore for the upkeep of the house
• groups, that include Processing Group, Community Group as well as Recovery Group
• Assigned a contact counselor
• Curfew the 1st month is 10pm 
• lots of structure and encouragement as far as change in jobs, schooling etc

I am totally stoked!!! I wanted this over the shelter cuz here they encourage you to get out and do things rather then go to bible classes and not work the first 9 months. I can do this! I am scared, sure, don't ask why but I am. BUT I want this! Heck, the lady on the phone even asked me if I was okay, I was so wow'd. I don't think I will know the outcome tomorrow, but I am sure I will know it some time next week!! YEAH!!!!!!!!!! Life may just be getting better and these baby steps will lead to bigger and better things....
