Whoops....8 month hiatus!

So I completely and utterly suck at this blog. I don't even have valid excuses because everyone is busy! But let's be honest- my poor husband is lucky if I cook for him anymore....so obviously the blog isn't high on priorities!

Since it's been 8 months since I've been on here- crap that's embarrassing- why do I have this again? We've had quite a lot happen.

I graduated....again. In December I finished my medical sonography program at Weber State so that I have two bachelors degrees. I think it's more embarrassing than something to be proud of- but it's the path that I was supposed to follow to get to where I am. I'm grateful for it but I'm also really glad to be done with schooling. I still have big, scary, expensive, three hour registries to study and take but it's kinda the beginning of the end. And it's really rare in my field to have a degree in ultrasound so it's a pretty big deal.

I've started working full time between two different hospitals- in Burley where we live and 45 minutes away in Twin Falls where I did my clinical rotations. I'm on call in Twin once a week so I have to be at the hospital in 30 minutes when they call me in. So I stay at the hospital one night a week. That stinks and is totally stressful...borderline panic attack stressful sometimes but I learn a lot from the emergent cases that come in during the night and I really miss being with Cole that one night a week.

He doesn't do too bad by himself because he's been living the dream coachin Burley Bobcat Basketball. I go to A LOT of basketball since he is an assistant coach for both the 9th grade boys and the varsity team. They're doing quite well and headed for State which is in Boise in March.

We spent a few days in Wyoming for Thanksgiving- not nearly as much as I would have liked but we loved being there! Then Christmas in Elba with Cole's family- typical beautiful cold white Christmas! Well 6 short paragraphs for 8 months...that's good right! Here's hopin I'll be better with this blog....no promises!
