2013 in review

It was a very good year. But, certainly one that brought so, so many changes. Let's see, so many things happened
I finalized my divorce at long last (it was a good thing)
I completed my graduate degree
I purchased a new home (solo, you go girl) for me and the kids
Moved to a new town and awesome neighborhood
Sent my first born off to college
Obtained my pediatric certification
Got an awesome new job

For 2014 I will be working on learning a new job, spending as much time as possible with my family, doing some diy on the house, crafting, traveling and saving for the future. Here's to a great 2014, I can't wait to meet you.

Priorities

Lately, my main priority has been to find a new job, post graduate school. I'm happy to say that I will be starting a new position the first of the year. I'm excited and nervous. I've been a bed side nurse for so long. I KNOW how to take care of a patient. My new position will be challenging to say the least.  I'll be a novice for the first time in a long time. But, it's going to provide me growth I wouldn't have any other way. It's going to fulfill professional goals that I've long held. But most importantly, I'll be able to care for my family financially.  There's been many sacrifices, but now I can look towards the future.
I look forward to the future. 2014 is looking bright. Hopefully, I'll balance learning new things with fun projects. I look forward to sewing, knitting and home improvement. I've gotten some new tools that I want to break in. Ahhh...good things to come.
