Just another day

So Monday when I got home from work Rick had some good news for me. He was called during the day by the public housing authority (where he had interviewed a few weeks ago and then received a letter saying they had hired someone else) and was offered a job. The job he had applied for. Apparently they were torn between him and another guy. The only reason they offered the job to the other guy was because he was a veteran. Now the guy accepted the job and then decided he was moving. Long story short Rick starts work this coming Wednesday. We are so excited, it is a great learning oppurtunity. He will be working in their computer labs and is encouraged to go back to school.

As for me, I survived my first week on my own. Monday was horrible. Only because there was a lot going on, giving blood, discharging, admitting, and people calling me for every little thing. I felt like all I could do was the basics. Thursday went a lot better, I am starting to get my routine down. I am enjoying the floor and getting to know everyone.

We went to the animal shelter today. They had posted a picture of a border collie/blue heeler mix. When we got there they said the dog had been adopted two days ago. She gave us the number of a lady who has a six month old border collie/blue heeler that she has to get rid of for financial reasons. So we may look into that. Jessie has some issues though, and we are not sure how she will do with other dogs.

Nothing else new is going on here, but just wanted to update everyone on the fact that Rick now has a job. Hope everyone has a great weekend/week.
