:dance::dance: Thanks everyone, I'm still on cloud nine. (Funny bit) I called Mark at work after I talked to Montreal and he was OMG OMG and freaking and then after a few minutes he said OMG I have to call you back I have a client in the office with me. HA HA HA he forgot they were there for a bit. We are going out to dinner tonight to celebrate WOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOO!!! I am so happy. I'm sure the nerves and worries of the interview will hit me soon. :dance::dance:

Oh yeah! They did for me and I wasn't the one interviewing! When Joel called me on Friday to tell me he got it, I dissolved into tears...the relief was so intense I had to cry! Oh I'm sooooo happy for y'all!!!!!!

Once again thank you all. And not to single anyone out and make others feel bad or like their support and help wasn't very appreciated, but Peggy, Joel and Karen thank you so very much. There were times when I was about ready to give up and just reading your posts or getting a kick in the butt from ya'll helped me through. Thank you all so very much. I can't wait to meet you all face to face. I got 3 huge hugs with your names on them.
