Week 1!

So week one is complete! Thankfully the work week did get better.

It is still such a huge change and for a while I think I forgot that it takes time. It continues to be a jumble of emotions but I am learning to be thankful as this experience is going to help me narrow down where I would like my career to go and where I would like to settle.

So as the week continued the company that I currently am working for in CA found out that they lost their main contract and had been bought by a new company. Now to give you a little break down there is only one physical therapist assistant that has been with this company for 3 to 4 years. He has seen the director of therapy change 4 times. The current director of therapy has only been there a year and a half. The other physical therapist assistant was hired less then a month ago and the occupational therapy assistant is a traveler. So after the Monday that I had I could only laugh.

With the potential of another company coming in and making changes there was the looming danger that my contract would be ended. Luckily the occupational therapist assistant that I work with has been doing this for 2 years and told me that they would have to give us a 30 day notice before they could end the contract. I got right on the phone with my recruiter who within 15 minutes got back to me letting me know that her people would check everything out and for me not to worry. In going through this first week with the ups and downs it has been reassuring that I picked the right company to complete this journey. My recruiter Debbie has been extremely helpful and reliable. Thank You!

This weekend I went exploring. My friend Ang from college currently lives in Sacramento and told me about the Galleria in Roseville. So I took a trip down there, got my hair done and treatment myself to some bear mineral make-up. Then I headed over to the movie therater and saw the movie Proposal which was hysterical. After a long day I came home and vegged out.

This was the giant bug I found out on the patio, hopefully they stay out there.
Two new books I bought, Tori and Dean Home sweet Hollywood is a guilty pleasure of mine.



Sunday is a day of odds n ends and gearing up for week 2. I am finishing up the applications for the license for the next stop on the trip. Other then that things are progressing alone. I thank everyone for the wonderful cards as they help keep me going! Just knowing what a great set of people I have around me has definetly made this big change a little easier. Hoping the phone bill isn't too bad!
All the love

Love you and Miss you
