The Gloom Is Starting To Lift

Hello Everyone: I finished the onboarding today,as much as I could. The rest is up to human resources. It gave me a sense of accomplishment and a feeling that I'm really employed as a contact tracer again. It's kind of exciting and, at the same time, a big relief. I still have to be assigned a contact tracer. That'll happen but first there is the paid training period. That's going to be nice, getting a paycheck again. This time I feel much more confident about being a contact tracer. I've done the hard part, the inital training, and first attempts. Now I know what to do. Tomorrow I have to go to the main office for some more paper work. I had a momentary freak out today when I could find one of the training videos I needed to watch. That's also something HR has to provide me. It's all good. I'm starting to feel that all the gloom of the past few months is slowly starting to lift. It's a nice feeling and I hope it continues. I realized that there are things I can't control and that the universe is in charge. There's a really good saying I read in book a long time ago, "pray for rain but plant corn." I've taken it to ask the universe for what you want but do the work. That's exactly what I try to do. For example when I applied for rent assistance, I filled out the form, uploaded the supporting documents, and asked the universe to have the agency approve me. I got the approval now I have let the universe dictate when I get my money (soon please). My plan is that in six months not to need anymore assistance with anything. That means a lot of work on my part but it's nothing I can't handle.
