Road Trip

Hi All,

I just returned from my road trip. I had been telling Ethan and Sharon that as soon as I was laid off from Lennar, I would pack up my car and head to Nashville. So, on Tuesday 10/2 I headed out, but what I did not take into account was how draining the last two weeks of work were. I drove for about three hours and had to stop and get a hotel since I was so tired.

I spent Wed-Sunday with Ethan, Sharon, Andy, Sam, Elaina, and Luke. I had so much fun with them. If you want to see how they are doing check out their website (beavas.com). I had a fun day out with Sam on Friday. I took him to the Discovery Center where we were able to explore all sorts of fun things, and then on Saturday I took Andy to Chuck E Cheese. I spent way to much money for someone who is unemployed, but couldn't say no to more tokens. We were having so much fun. I look forward to more fun days out with Elaina and Luke as well, after they are a little bit older.

On Sunday 10/8 I drove to Asheville and spent the rest of my road trip relaxing and enjoying the mountains. I did not pack so well though. A cold front came through and we had one night when it was 39 degrees. I was not prepared for that. So, I wore shorts and a t-shirt and one of Mike's long sleeved shirts and drove to Wal-mart to purchase cheap warm clothes:) I guess I will know better next time. Pam informed me that most of the weather info you get is for the Piedmont of Asheville and you have to take another 10 degrees off to get the temps for the mountains.

I am employed!! My previous employer (from 6 years ago) needed someone to fill my old position. So I moving back to St. Petersburg in the next two weeks and starting at Women's Health Associates. I am going to move in with Mom and Dad and finish the pre-reqs (only three to go) for nursing school. So, stay tuned I should have news of when I will start nursing school by next summer.

Thanks for keeping track of me.

Love you all!!
