The big move/Week One

So a week ago today I arrived in Arizona and I have been adjusting to the fact that I am living here and not just visiting. The fact that I go to work everyday helps make it feel more real though. The journey from Kansas to Arizona wasnt as bad as I thought and 16 hours in the car went pretty fast. We went thru Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico and finally Arizona. So basically it was a lot of nothing for a lot of it but we did get to see a few somewhat cool things.


This was the view from our hotel in Albuquerque. Mountains are a cool thing for a Kansas girl and its great cuz I get to see them everyday now!


Finally in Arizona!!!

My first week went by so fast and everything is going well with the job. Its kindof overwhelming and a lot to learn but I have met some great people and everyone is so nice and helpful! Its a great environment of people and I think its going to be a lot of fun. I've only been here for a week but I feel like I've made friends and its gone better than I would have expected in such a short time. And getting to see my boyfriend everyday is definitely a plus after being apart for so long; now we get to be like a normal couple which brings its own changes and challenges.
I miss everyone in Kansas and hope everyone is doing well and will try to keep in touch and keep you all posted (I know I promised everyone at the hospital I would!!)

New Beginnings

Okay so my attempt at blogging was kinda lame cuz I really had nothing cool to talk about but now that my life is about to have some big changes I thought i'd give it a shot again. Two weeks from today I will be a resident of Arizona and will be getting ready to start my new job the next morning. I will be working at Aerotek as a recruiter and I am so excited for this new opportunity! I love Arizona; nice weather year round, real professional sports to watch, fun activities to do all the time and everyone is so happy and laid back there. Not to mention, I will finally be living close to a very special person!! Of course I will miss my family and friends and not being able to attend everything that goes on but I know this is the best opportunity for me and the next step in my journey. Stay tuned for all the excitement that lies ahead!
