For the past week or so now, I have not had internet at my place of residence. Hence my feeling lost. I had just grown used to my love of blogging, then BAM!, no internet. Oh well.
This week has been pretty crazy. As previously blogged, I got to attend my first class. Since then, I have managed to round up a couple of job interviews for next week, and have one call I need to return for a third. This is a great sign, as I have been looking for a full-time day position, and all of the three jobs I've applied for fit that bill. The first job is at Saint John's Mercy Medical Center, where my cousin Beth works. This is just a patient transport job, but it would get my foot in the door. The other two jobs are both at Barnes-Jewish (where I currently work), and to be honest, I'd like to stay there if possible. Both jobs are desk jobs, and they both deal with the public. Right now, I'm stuck in a room five nights a week with the same people, having a minimal impact on patients directly. I am really hoping for an opportunity to work more directly with patients, as I feel that is my calling in life and this is God's will for me. One BJH job deals with radiation therapy patients, whereas the other deals with pre-lung transplant patients. I feel as though I could be a benefit to both types of patients. With that said, pray for me. =)
Also, today I took a trip to Circuit City. For those of you who live under a rock, they're going out of business and have crazy deals going on. I finally bought myself a new (WORKING!) laptop! I got it at about 65% of the original price, which is awesome. It's an HP Pavilion Entertainment PC. This thing comes with a friggin' remote. It's sweet!! I can't wait to get all of my goodies uploaded onto it and enjoy what it has to offer!
I got to talk to Beth today, who's home sick with Owen. The poor boy has a 103* fever that won't break and a double ear infection, so keep him in your thoughts.
Guess who else I got to talk to today: my Grandma B!! For those of you who have never had the pleasure of meeting her, she's just awesome. And the most undeniably sweet woman on this planet. Of course, the first thing the 81-year-old informed me of was that her hair is white because she got a haircut today. Oh, the perils of being a retired grandma...
Because I am not sure if I'll have the opportunity to write tomorrow or Sunday, I should recap this weekend. Here goes:
Saturday: go for a run, have lunch with Jess, maybe help Beth at the house, trivia with the Roethemeyers, hang out time with my way cool manfriend.
Sunday: sunday school, church, house and dog sit, homework, trivia.
Do you see how busy (read:FUN) my weekend is going to be? (I may have forgotten something... I feel as though I did....)
Have a productive, blessed weekend!!
