I have been completely missing in action. I am very sorry. Life has been incredibly eventful and in a good way. I was asked to apply for a job that uses my pediatric nursing training but will allow me to work from home half the time! Woo Hoo! Praise God! I am so thankful for God's provision.
The first two months, however, I have to go into work so that I can get trained. I started on June 24th. My parents got wind that I would be working full-time and not able to come visit them in Texas with the kids for the month of July. So, they bought us airplane tickets and flew us to Texas. I had about 24 hours to get all our bags packed. We had a great visit with my parents for about 10 days. And then flew back home just in time for me to start work.
Miss Froggie is babysitting the boys and I am looking for a part-time babysitter to help us out now and when Miss Froggie goes back to school in the fall. And I had to pull out my Working Mothers Cookbook. I had finally gotten pretty good at cooking everything from scratch and using a whole wad of coupons to keep our grocery budget down while feeding us healthy stuff. Now, its all different again. And keeping a house decently clean and functional while the parents are gone and the kids are home is borderline impossible. And don't even ask about my vegetable garden. (But the tomatoes are huge).
But change is a part of life. And this job is a huge blessing. Only God could provide me a full-time job for a pediatric nurse where you get to work from home!
