My job

I have been at my new job for about 3 months and still absolutely LOVE it!! My co-workers are wonderful and the doctor I work for is amazing. It is completely different from what I have been doing and I have learned a tremendous amount since starting there. This was the best move for my career and there are possibilities that have opened up for me that I would have never had at Children’s. I’m writing a paper or abstract on a procedure we do in our office and I’m hoping to get it published. I just found out this week that I’m also going to be involved in two research studies in the next several months, for which I have to go to Atlanta and somewhere else (not sure of the location yet) for training in April.

I thought making the switch from pediatrics to adults would be hard for me, but it really hasn’t been that bad, I actually like working with the adults, and I’ve had a few kiddos come in to see me so I still get some pediatric patients.

I am so glad that I made the switch from Children’s to Baylor because it was just what I needed, I actually don’t dread getting up in the morning to go to work!

They even let me play with needles!! Well not really play with them, more like poke people with them-wuaaahahahah

Day 129 ~ 365 Days Project

We’re still alive…

Wow, it’s been a while since I posted anything on this here blog! We have been busy the last month or so and I realize I haven’t kept anyone updated on what all we have been up to. I’m not going to lie…when I do have a chance to sit down and update the blog, I just don’t want to! We went on our cruise the first week of February and had a great time!
Day 140 ~ 365 Days Project
Our first stop was in Progresso, Mexico and we enjoyed visiting the Mayan Ruins. Jonathan probably enjoyed it more than me, but it was neat to see.

The next day we went to Cozumel and had a chance to ride some segways along beach. we were supposed to go snorkeling but it was way too windy so we were unable to. We were pretty bummed but maybe some other time we will be able to go snorkeling.

After the segway tour we walked around the port a while and had lunch at Three Amigos in Cozumel.

Day 159 ~ 365 Days Project

Then on Tuesday, which was Jonathan’s actual birthday we went to Red Robin for a delicious burger.
Day 161 ~ 365 Days Project

I started going to the Bible study at my old church in Dallas with Jen on Wednesday nights and love it. I have missed having an actual women’s Bible study and simply just needed it. So I called Jen up because I knew she was going to the one at Northwest Bible and luckily a new study was starting this month so I was able to start it. So every Wednesday after work I get to see Jen and then go to a Bible study–it’s great!! We catch up on what’s going on in our lives and helps me get through the week. I’ve missed getting to see her and spend time with her as often as we used to…I guess that’s what happens when you live that far apart and both have busy lives. But, I’m thankful for the times we do get to spend together.

We have started getting ready for spring around our house. Last week we pulled up some bushes and planted two rose bushes in the front and today we added more mulch to the flower beds and I put out the weed killer…and in a few weeks it’ll be time for the fertilizer.
