Go for it, then you won't have any regrets cause you let the opportunity pass you by

Did you decide to take the chance Tink??

Thanks for the support ladies.
I just sent my resume for the job I want. I was very open in my cover letter about the fact that I have a lot of experience that I feel would help me in the position, yet have no formal education related to it.

I explained that I know my application is a stretch, but that I am willing to prove myself given the chance. So I hope...

If nothing comes of it, at least I will have tried.

Tink, I'm SO glad you gave it a shot! Even if you don't get the job, you will be happy knowing that you tried and you won't have regrets later.

I'm so proud of you!!! :goodluck:

Yayyy Tink. Congrats!!!!!! That took alot of guts. Best of luck & I hope just knowing you can reach for your dreams makes you feel like the strong & special person you are :D

Comically, right after I sent my resume for the job, my hubby called and the first words out of his mouth were "I think I've come up with a plan so you don't have to work outside of home." He has a retirement fund that's been growing for30+ yrs and he's being told he could start drawing on it now. Of course the longer he waits, the more he'll be entitled to per month, but it is an option worth checking into.

In the far fetched chance that I'd be offered the job I applied for, I am sure I'd jump at it and tell hubby to hold off on the other. It's nice though that he's so supportive and willing to do what ever it takes to make me happy too.

I do feel good about having at least expressed an interest in and applied for the job. It's rather like jumping into a pool blindfolded. LOL I convinced myself that if they're not interested, I simply won't hear from them. I seriously doubt they're going to call just to go "Bwahahahaha" in the phone. LOL If they do, I guess I'd survive that too, but I'd be on here Boohooing to you all. ;)

I'm so glad he is supportive & things seem to be opening up for you. & if you need to boohoo, you know we will be here with a shoulder :)

Tink, think of it this way. If they dont call, its their loss, they dont know what a wonderful lady they missing out on!
Its wonderful of your husband to be supportive as he is, and coming up with ideas, to make you happy. Good for him!!
