Job Searching

Ok, so we still don't have a job yet. We only have a week and a half left here. They still want Ryan to stay here and work another 13 weeks, but we still want 12 hour shifts. If it comes down to this job or no job.......we might change our mind though. We are still considering come home for awhile, but we never applied for the LA job and Hawaii has no Tele needs right now. We have applied at a hospital is Stockton, CA for an 8 week contract. Have not heard anything back yet. But this is pretty much all we have right now. This is the time I want to start freaking out. Honestly, I know I cannot change anything by worrying. So.......it's time to have a little faith. I know no matter what happens, God is in control. We will adjust no matter where we go. Wherever God wants us to be.......is definitely where we want to be.

Update

So, I thought I would give this a try! I have extra time on my hands with not working at the moment, and a lot of stuff in my head with being away from home and struggling with tight control over my Diabetes!

Today is Easter. I'm so thankful for my Jesus and his sacrifice on the cross. Knowing that He is alive today gives so much hope for the future. I wish Ryan and I could celebrate this day back home with family and friends. Missing out on Holidays is one of the toughest things about being away! Don't get me wrong, I love traveling. I would not change it for anything, but it does get lonely sometimes.

Ryan and I are looking for our next assignment right now. He only has 3 more weeks left at the hospital in Oakland. We have really enjoyed our time here, but we are both ready for him to be back to work 12 hr shifts instead of 8's. With him working 5 days a week, we don't have as much time to travel the area and just be together. He got offered a 3 month extension at this hospital, but we did not take it. Too bad there are not many openings out there. We are really having a hard time finding anything for our next assignment. We are looking into going home and having Ry work per diem for a few months, but even that has slowed down. So, not sure if he would get enough work. West L.A. and Hawaii could possibly be other choices, but that is all we have. We pretty much need to make a decision by the end of next week!!!! So, I'll keep you posted on what happens.

Now I'm just waiting for Ryan to get off work so we can go make our own Easter baskets:)
