Life can change quickly

It's been odd not having my parents here for Thanksgiving. I do miss them but I'm happy for them at the same time. My sister and I had a good time just chatting, watching movies together, and doing little projects. Life has its turns doesn't it?

In the last month, I've been unsure about the direction of career. I really want to give my job a good try before moving on. I've been unsure whether I want to continue at the hospital or not because I'm not sure it's a good fit for me. The anesthesiologists don't know how to work with the CRNAs or how to use us to our full potential. I want more for my career. I'm beginning to be open to other possibilities. Who know's where i might end up? I really thought I would stay in Lafayette for a while, but I think that's not going to be the case.

I have a hunch that the road of life for me will have many turns for awhile. Am I afraid? No. Just excited to see what is to come.

reminded

God again has reminded how blessed I am. I have a good job, family, and wonderful friends. Who can ask for anything more? :-) Thank you Beth Schlosser for encouraging me and reminding that I am loved today. I am so grateful for the many friendships in my lifetime. I have had many superficial friendships, but I truly value the deep ones. I know that these friendships will continue on forever. I appreciate the time that they have invested in my life and I hope that i have done the same in theirs.

I spent a great weekend with my parents. Next weekend is the last weekend I will be able to see them in a long time-6 months to be exact. I was reminded about my heritage. The road that my family has traveled. The road that I have traveled. I have come a long way...physically, emotionally, spiritually.

I have been reminded of who I was, who I am, and who I want to become. I am grateful. Thank you for grounding me in the Truth, God.
