We closed on Monday! It was WONDERFUL...though it took a wicked long time, and I don't think I have ever had to sign and initial things in my life. We get the keys bright and early tomorrow morning...our very own piece of paradise! I am excited that I get to spend the rest of today packing up our hotel room and getting out of here.
Pictures to come!
I also started the process of in-processing today for my official job. Just a drug test and fingerprinting, but it's a start. Only have to wait 3 weeks until my physical and then I can get sworn in. This whole federal employment thing is quite the extended process...and I found out yesterday that the people in Alaska lost my paperwork...TWICE. It's all great though, because I have been working on my floor as a contractor until my government paperwork comes through.
Can I tell you how much I LOVE MY JOB!?!?!? I can't even fathom having a better job...I literally have not had a patient older than 13 days old, and they are SOOO cute. The fear of working with them is gone, so that is really nice, and they are so much easier to handle than my bigger kids. Those who know me know how I am about babies...
Adam's job is going well, he is getting better at the earlier hours...though things have been getting a little crazy. He is having to go in at 2 am sometimes....not the nicest of hours to be awake and going to work. Getting out at 10 am is much to his liking though.
Also...I got into my Master's program!!!! Finally heard this week....thank God. It's actually a duel Master's so three years from now I will be a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner and a Pediatric Clinical Nurse Specialist. Yeah, I will be a professional nerd forever...and I love it!
Well, time to get packing!!!
