Well, here I am, sitting at work (the night shift at the hospital) just trying to keep myself busy and awake during these few hours of the night where there's oddly nothing to do since every one of my easy patients tonight are sleeping. I've been working here for about 7 months now and nursing is becoming more and more routine and natural; though, there are still shifts that I want to scream and pull my hair out because it's so busy, and there are often things that take me longer since I'm less experienced in some areas. But overall, I like nursing and am so grateful to have a steady job during this hard time for our economy. Mike is in kinda the same boat since he isn't exactly working at his "dream job," but at least he has a job and is getting good experience for the future. We're so blessed at this time when so many are experiencing unemployment and financial hardship, and for that we are so grateful to our Heavenly Father.
In other news, we are loving our new ward at church. There are so many interesting and friendly people in our ward. We've both been blessed with callings and are striving to live up to all that is expected of us in these positions. I love being in Young Women's with all the girls; it's a lot of fun. And Mike is such a great secretary for the Elder's Quorum.
Mike and I are on this Body for Life kick where we work out together and eat healthy stuff like protein powder and bars etc. We just started so we still need to take our funny before and after pictures (like it's really going to look that different) and maybe I'll post them if they're not too embarassing. :)
Well, life has it's highs and lows, but overall life is good! I love all your blogs everyone. Keep them updated 'cause it's my entertainment during the slow hours of the night shift. :)
