And the Adventure Continues!

I was just offered my first nursing job. I'll be working in a pediatric outpatient clinic at Vanderbilt Children's Hospital in Nashville, TN. I don't have a start date yet, but it will be sometime in the next 3-5 weeks. I'll be started off as a patient care tech until I pass my nursing boards, and then will move into a nursing role after I pass. I'll be working 8-5, Monday-Friday, with no weekends, no being on call, and holidays off. I get full benefits right away. I couldn't ask for much more from a first job. It's exactly what I wanted. God is so good.

I won't say much now, because my head is spinning, but I'll keep the updates coming! I have to pack, find an apartment, still study 3-4 hours a day for boards, move, and tie up loose ends here in Murfreesboro. This certainly isn't my first move, and compared to many I've done before, isn't too far away, but boy do I feel like I'm barely treading water. I'll only be 45 minutes away from my family, but considering I live a mile from my nephews right now, it feels like a long way away. Here are some prayer requests:

-I will find people willing/able to help me with the actual move
-I'll find an affordable apartment close to the hospital (that has a washer and dryer, something I haven't had for 8 years!!)
-I'll stay disciplined with my studying
-I'll feel God's peace through this transition
