Everywhere. I have been through so many changes since my last post, that it has been somewhat overwhelming to think of what to post next. I even debated dissolving this blog and starting over but decided against it.
Why would I do that? Well, not to get overly sentimental about completely meaningless things (spoiler: that is what I am doing), but I feel like the erratic and random posts that were already here are a part of me and that I should acknowledge them.
So, back on task. Where have I been since April of 2012? Well, you might be sorry that you wondered, but here is the synapses:
May 2012: I moved to a new place near Lewiston, and I got a new Job working as an assistant manager at Ross.
March 2013: Got promoted to store manager with Ross.
April 2014: Broke up with boyfriend of 5 years, moved to Boise area to allow me to attend Nursing school and build a life around my farming and horse habits. Got a job at Lowes.
July 2014: Began dating someone from work. Just casual. After 5 years, I needed some "me" time.
August 2014: Got a second job at Caption Call. Super fun job everyone! Also, stopped working at Lowes because the manager refused to work around my CC schedule but refused to give me more that 12 hours a week.
October 2014: "Casual" relationship is not as casual as I had intended. Kevin (boyfriend status at this point) took me on a surprise trip. To Las Vegas. To see Wicked. "I love you," happened. How could you not??
December 2014: Started working as a book keeper/Scheduler for an in home care company. Dropped CC. Kevin moved in.
April 2015: Kevin proposed on Easter. so much for "casual," and "taking it slow." No, I'm not pregnant, and that is an issue for another post.
June 2015: Got a Job at a Wells Fargo call center (just thinking about it makes me seriously want to throat punch someone). Married Kevin. Le sigh. I never thought I was capable of loving another human being as much as I love him!
September 2015: Get a job with St Lukes Hospital; give Wells Fargo the finger (not that they care).
And not much has changed since then. I have moved 3 times since I met Kevin (twice with him), and we are now in a place that we can hopefully hang on to for a few years while we build credit to buy a place of our own. Some stability would be nice.
Also, did you notice anything that didn't happen in there? You probably didn't, but here it is: Nursing School. I did take classes. There were some I had to re-do (they got somewhat crabby about me trying to use my Veterinary Anatomy and Physiology classes on my application), but for the most part it ended up being too much. I had maxed out my student loans (cries, silently) and could not afford to do any more undergraduate work. However, I am finally working in the medical field and I love it. I am just front office at this point, checking patients in and out, but it is a great job and I am happy to do the work!
And here we are. I did a lot of fast forwarding over personal dramas that were interspersed, and I may not update on many of those as some of them are private, and most of them, no one really cares about. It has been an eventful few years for me and looking back has really made it clear to me just how much things can change in a short span of time. So, if things aren't going so great, just hang on for a little while. Circumstances will change. Also, if things are just fantastic right now, then take some time to appreciate the good times for what they are!
