The guy from the mental health agency called again this morning (at 8:15am, while I was still asleep!) and asked if I still wanted the interview and to please tell him either way. Ugh. I was wanting that to disappear.
But I called. I did good, right? I apologized for not calling earlier and said that I have shingles so I've been pretty out of commission recently (which is true, in case you havent seen my other post on that). We set up an interview for 9am Monday.
I wrote in my last post (to midnightblue) about my fears about this. Right now, getting out of bed and not hurting myself is taking all my energy. I'm not sure that I can handle a job. It's not full time, but it's intense and a lot of responsibility. My boss would be a therapist - how funny is that? He said he was interviewing lots of people, which means I might not get it anyway, but the possiblity is there.
This is the ad from the website for the position...
"In-Home Therapeutic Behavior Spec. #9224In the role of an In-Home team member, he/she will act as the 2nd individual on a mental health team providing services to SED/at risk children, adolescents and their families in the client’s home, and community.

Me, providing crisis intervention? HAHAHHA. We'll see.
