Alta View and Altitude

What have you done lately that made you hold your breath.. for maybe even, just one second? Me? I accepted a full time job at a hospital I have only been to once! That's right, I uprooted from all my other jobs (yes, I know I have many), and on a whim excepted the job. Alta View Hospital, here I come!

Why? You might wonder. Because it's back to my old shift that I use to love so very much. 7 on 7 off swing shift. YAY. So I may not get as much sleep as before.. but it means I get to spend every single day with my two little boys. That, AND they don't have to go to the base school or to a babysitters. I am excited. I start my first day on Wednesday.. I hope I end up loving it there as much as my other jobs. And yes, I do still plan on staying with them PRN - but I think the only one who will really get to use me is the instacare, cause let's just face it- that place is awesome :) .

~~ Oh, and Jack keeps wondering about what Daddy and I do at work. He asks us a lot of questions. What does he want to do when he grows up? He wants to fix airplanes and helicopters, clean and fly them. He absolutely LOVES anything to do with airplanes or helicopters.

If Jack gets in trouble with something, and we put it up high so he can't have it anymore, he always makes up a huge story about he is going to get his airplane/helicopter and have it fly really high and retrieve it for him. He pretty much now uses this story every single time he gets in trouble for anything anymore. Airplanes and helicopters are his heros. Who's your hero?

7 Years


Wow. Time sure flies when you're having fun! I can't believe we have been married 7 years! People have always said the first year would be the hardest - but it started out as the best, and has kept getting better and better.

Luckily I think we fit each other well. We are both laid back people, we work as a great team. We are best friends. I am happy to have been able to spend the last 8 years with such a wonderful man.


Our original plan was to go out and either dance the night away, go surfing, or go find a mechanical bull to ride (yeah, I'm still on that tangent) .

But poor little Jack came to me earlier in the day and told me his tummy hurt. Jack and I took a nap on our bed, he woke up pale and shaky and started throwing up :( . Poor little guy. We decided to stay with him that night instead of going out. Ahh the things you do after being married 7 years ;) . And the funniest thing about the whole night?? Trent ended up sleeping on the floor in Jack's room, and I slept on the couch!! Hahaha. Happy 7 years!!


Have you indulged in something you love today? If not, you'd better get on it! Have a fantastic Day!! And keep on smiling :)
