Lance survived his first week with his new job! Right now his new job is pretty much school…he is in ‘class’ from 7-4. I asked him the other day if I needed to say, have a good day at work or at school, and he said it is definitely school. He has homework and he even has to study for tests! So he is in college all over again…except this time he has a wife and kid! J He usually stays late after ‘school’ so he can get some work done. Me and Ansley make it hard on him to study at home…we aren’t very quiet!
While Lance is in ‘school’ for the day, me and Ansley hang out. We are finally all settled in and have made our little duplex home. We joined some of the other women of Federated and had brunch one day. We are slowly making friends. A couple of duplexes down from us is a couple who have a 10 month old lil girl AND they actually happen to be from Murfreesboro! Another couple from Lance’s class has an adorable almost 4month old lil boy. Ansley just loves these “bay-bees”! Since we have been making friends, I have also found some great people to babysit Ansley! We are definaltly making the best of our move to Owatonna!
Today we visited one of the local churches. It was a llittle different than what we are used to. We probably won’t go back to that one, so we will try another next week. After church, we meet up with Lance’s classmates for a cookout at one of the 20+ parks in our little town. We had a great time and it was nice for me to meet everyone and of course Ansley loved being ‘side’ (her version of outside).
The weather here is crazy! One day last week the high was 61! Today was probably one of the nicer days we have had since we moved in. Usually it has been very overcast and rainy, no sun, but today the sun was actually out. It was nice! It is supposed to rain, but by the end of the week it is supposed to clear up and actually be in the high 70s to the high 80s! Waa-hoo! Now that is what I’m talking about an actually summer! J
I finally have a start date for my job. I have training July 11-13th in Minneapolis and then I will have orientation at the hospital….so hopefully mid July I’ll be working. Owatonna Hospital is really small, only about 30 something beds. There is only one respiratory therapist on a shift and they don’t even have a night shift! They don’t have a Critical Care Unit either so no ventilator patients. They said that if a patient is bad enough then they will stabilize and ship them out to another facility. I’m excited for this job opportunity and the chance to expand my skills!
We ask that you please continue to pray for us and this new adventure! We love and miss everyone!!!
