As With Tribulations Comes The Blessings

Today started out ok as I took Jr to school and he gave me no problems getting ready. For some reason he only gives Tracy issues when she gets him up in the morning. I guess its because he is always telling me that I am his #1 HAHA. However I took him to school and then came home. I usually get to go back to bed for an hr or two but today Tracy had a Dr Appointment.

Today should have been like every other appointment but its getting closer to her delivering. She has been getting really dizzy lately and with the High Blood Pressure its not something that we want to mess with. Dr Napier decided to admit Tracy into hospital over night for observation. They are doing fine. Her mom was with us last night and was supposed to go to another daughters house but decided to stay with Tracy. I am thankful for that because it gives Tracy and Joyce some good "Mother Daughter Time". Gives Jr and I some needed Daddy and Jr time. With some severe storms on the way today it was nice knowing that Tracy would not be alone over night.

With Tribulations comes blessings. Today I received a call from PRG (Peyton Resource Group) who submitted me for a position that I really wanted here in Plano. Weekends Off and more money then T-Mobil. It was supposed to be Direct Hire but it ended up Temp with "supposed guarantee permanent in 4 months". They pay 100% medical when I go perm which was something I was looking forward to for the family. They had said that they had others to interview the end of this week but would make their decision early next week. So I was again in the waiting period.

***********"HOWEVER" PRG called and said that I was chosen for the position and that they want me to start "MONDAY!!!!!!!!!!" HOORAY!!! I get to go back to work on Monday and I am so stoked!*******************

PRG has benefits but they are expensive and Tracy and I have to decide if we want to dish out the money for a staffing company medical benefits or if we should go with out until I go perm to have that extra money until Tracy goes back to work. Well thats not the hard part as I see it, because I have a job now and I sign the paperwork tomorrow. Thanks for all your prayers as its nice that I don't have to go to T-Mobil and work in a 24HR call center. I would have had to work Sundays which I didn't want to do. Tracy and I are excited about this position and I know things in life will work them out.

Thanks Dad. I appreciate your support. Jeffrey Pack Meeting is tonight. I get to train the kids on how to adjust the seats on bikes and check their bike tires for pressure. Hope all is well with you and Kim.

Tracy is doing great. She is resting. Hopefully she will be back home tomorrow

I/We are glad to hear that Tracy is doing GREAT!

I am glad to hear about the job. Only one suggestion. Don't go without insurance. There could be so many complications after the delivery with Tracy and her blood pressure and diabetes. It sometimes can last for several months after the fact. I hope you enjoy your new job.

My bad. Thanks SMK AKA Step Mom Kim.. You have been very nice comenting on my blog. When Tracy gets out of the hospital and after the Baby comes maybe we can arrange for a visit to your new place or have you and dad over here for dinner.

Heather.... We do have insurance on Tracy, and the Baby as well. The insurance that is through PRG is not very good and I am hoping to go perm before the 4 month mark. We will be sure to have them covered one way or another..
