Bittersweet...

This past week was a little bittersweet for me! As most of you know, I have been going to school for nursing for the past year and a half and I have never actually had any proper experience SO after passing my LPN exam (Woo woo!!) I decided to see if I could find a job that will give me some experience and maybe even offer a pay raise...I interviewed with a pediatric clinic right here in South Ogden and after meeting with them I thought that it would be a good transition but felt they were looking for someone with a little more experience than I had so I wasn't planning on getting the job! Anyway, a few days later they called me back and actually offered the job to me!! I was excited but at the same time was a little unsure about actually accepting! The job only offered a little more than what I was already making and I felt the experience may not be as beneficial as I wanted! After thinking a lot about it, I accepted the position!! I thought that any experience will be good and benefit me in the long run the hard part is, I'm very sad to leave America First! I have been working there for a little over 3 years and have been at the branch I'm at for over 2! I have made a lot of friends and have become very comfortable there! It's always hard to start a new job and I hope that I will have as great of coworkers as I did at America First! They are all great!! Anyway, I AM excited about this new adventure and hope that I can learn a lot at my new job! (Plus, Kyle said that I could get a new car with getting a new job and I definitely don't want to give that opportunity up!!)

And just a little bit about our fun weekend..Usually I don't do anything on the weekends so I was very excited!!!! On Friday, we were planning on going to dinner and a movie with our good friends Daniel and Terra but Daniel actually got diagnosed with swine flu so Terra just came with us! We were sad that Daniel couldn't make it (hopefully he is feeling better) but glad that we could at least see Terra!! We went to the Ogden Pizzeria and met some other friends to have some delicious pizza! After dinner, we went to Couples Retreat and it was hilarious! If you haven't seen it..I would definitely recommend it!! It made me laugh and made me want to go on a vacation to a place as beautiful as it was on the movie! (It was gorgeous!) Anyway, that was about it for my Friday night (which is usually more than I normally do, isn't that sad?!) because I had to get up early for clinicals on Saturday. But after clinicals on Saturday, I had a really long nap and finally woke up about 8pm and me and Kyle went to Olive Garden! I love going out with my husband and just sitting and talking all night! It's so much fun! On Sunday, we had our family day! We went to lunch for my grandma's birthday and then headed up to Kyle's mom's house for dinner and a game! I love being around family and all-in-all was a great ending to a good weekend! :)
