It's hot.
It's really hot!
I haven't seen the electric bill yet, but I'm pretty sure it's gonna be monstrous.
And I love it! The long days, the warm nights. My favorite time of day is in the evenings, to sit out on the deck, talking with friends and enjoy the warm summer nights. Sipping lemonade, listening to the sounds of the neighborhood, and the occasional bonfire. Love it!
It's been awhile since my last blog. I took my RN boards on June 1st, and got my RN license for my birthday! Yay!! Now that I am officially an RN, I have been applying for jobs at the hospital. Figure it'll take me like, 2 days to get a job, right? WRONG! It's been nearly two months, and what I have realized is this: Be grateful for the job you have, recognize that any experience is better than none, and enjoy what you are learning, because knowledge is key. I had just gotten to the point where I was going to back off for a bit, enjoy the nursing home for a while, and catch up on my finance stuff, when wouldn't you guess... I got a call for an interview at ORMC! For a full time sot on the surgical floor. Yay!! That's next week, so... keep your fingers crossed for me!
Mav finishes the first part of his police academy in a couple weeks. He's learning about corrections and jails and stuff right now, and loving it. He applied for a position with highway patrol. That is an extensive process! They actually came to our house to interview me! He had another interview with Weber county this last week. He's excited and looking forward to leaving Smiths when the time comes. I keep telling him to quit now and we'll figure it out. It would be so nice to actually see him! But, he's stubborn and won't do that.
We got a bunny here not long ago. That thing is a little devil! He terrorizes the house, chews on everything from shoes, to paper to cords. Poops in the corner of the landing, hides behind the furnace... But he makes me laugh when he charges down the hall hell bent on escaping whatever scary thing lives down there when the lights are off. :-)
We call him Jersey Cow, because he looks like one.
<----This is a pic of him from when we first got him. He's grown a ton since then!
