the real world...

this last week has been very interesting and challenging...i am just now coming to the realization that we are grown up and are now living in the real world! well, i technically am still a college student, but have to start seriously thinking about what i am going to do when i graduate in december. school is winding down and i am forced to start writing resumes, looking and applying for jobs, and studying for the NCLEX...which is going to kill me. we are trying to decide where we want to live in this next phase in our life...who knows...maybe we'll end up in boston? (jenny you would love that :) among the options are alaska, oregon, california, chicago...pretty much where ever i can get a job and where ever aaron can keep his. about aaron's job...he started working this last week and his schedule is opposite of mine for the next couple of weeks as he finishes up training. we don't get to see each other all that often, but that's the "real world" right? as all of us growing up and are moving in all different directions, i am just reminded that God is in control and is guiding our every step. my mom has this quote hanging up on the cupboard in her kitchen..."lack of faith is panic." may the Lord strengthen my faith in the next couple months...because i am definitely panicking!

yes i would. :) miss you a lot. sorry the real world is hard right now...i have definitely been there. :( but it will get better; and who knows, maybe someday you will have a month long break when you will drive across the country, arrive in a new place, and have no jobs or responsibilities and just be able to enjoy each other. :) (the odds of that are pretty good if you move over here...trust me.) :) love you!
