Checking In

I thought I would get better at blogging once I graduated but that hasn't seemed to happen. I want to be better at it but I guess I have a hard time actually sitting down to blog. And an even harder time coming up with things to say. Sure we do stuff but I always forget to take pictures. I'm also going to get better at that because I am going to pick out and buy my new camera tomorrow. I think I have decided on buying a Nikon D5000. The whole going to buy it has made me quite nervous. I have been wanting one for several years now so for graduation I asked for money to help buy one. So between that money and the money that I have saved I'm going to take the plunge. So what has been going on with us?...

I started work about 3 weeks ago. I have been on the floor for 5 days now. I worked 3 days the first week, then we had General Nursing Orientation for 2 weeks, then this week I worked 2 night shifts. I like working nights but they are definitely going to take some time to get used to. Although I was pleasantly surprised at how well I did staying awake! I got a little sleepy about 3 in the morning but it passed pretty quickly so that was good. I really think I am going to love my job. At first I was really disappointed that I wasn't going to be working in the ER. But I really like the medical floor I am on. There is such a wide variety of kids and different diseases. I think I will really learn a lot and be able to be a very well rounded nurse. And eventually I want to cross train to the ER so I can pick up shifts.

Another big thing we have done is move into our house!! I will post pictures this weekend after I get my camera, hopefully....

OK well I guess those are the biggest things that have been going on. Next week Jayci is doing swimming lessons. I am so excited. She is actually already swimming pretty well but I wanted to put her in lessons to help build her confidence and my confidence in her swimming. Hopefully I will get some pictures of that too.

OK well I guess that is it for now. Next time I will have some pictures to share!
