So I start my new job Monday

I got it in spite of my multiple DUIs and it is a lot more money than I was making at that job that fired me a month ago. I should not have questioned it- things happen as they are supposed to.

So grateful to be sober today.

Yay, congrats! Yes, I remember you posting about being fired. I knew from the start that something good would turn up for you because you come across on here as a really thoughtful, responsible, capable woman. Here's to Monday!
