Thank you so much @Discombobulated and @NovaBlaze

I am thrilled. I am guessing that since her boss was present in my review meeting, that he may have ensured that her review of me remained strictly professional so no personal bias could be included. Perhaps. I am just guessing, but it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be.

The timing of my review finalizing and getting my bonus pay could not have worked out any better. I just paid off 5K of my debt and still have enough left to splurge on my vacation and to have a cushion in savings when I return. Phew.

God IS looking out for me - I have faith.

I leave tomorrow! I will be on the beaches of Mexico tomorrow afternoon, celebrating with a cocktail in hand!
