The other day the week had just caught up to me with working overtime, no sleep, and having to move. I lucked out and was able to just be on call Sunday so I was fortunate enough to get to go to church. I'm so grateful for the spirit that filled my soul and the opportunity to partake of the sacrament. My testimony has been strengthened so much and I know without a doubt that God is mindful of me and my needs.
As I was having some heart to heart conversation last night with some friends something struck me that my friend mentioned. At times we struggle with letting go of people or things because it is something that is familiar and comfortable for us. We tend to overlook the bigger picture and spend too much time focusing on things that really don't matter in the long run. Lately I've been thinking a lot about my faith and how my actions are a reflection of what I truly believe. Life can be a bit overwhelming at times with many wonderful opportunities and not knowing which path to take. It is so so important to remember our divine worth and that God will literally take our hand and lead us to where He needs us. That brings so much strength and comfort to me and I know He has our best interests in mind.
With that being said, my heart is so full of gratitude today as it is missionary Monday and I've gotten so many emails from such valiant servants of our Heavenly Father! I'm so grateful for such wonderful friends and family. They are truly such blessings in my life. I cannot wait for Mother's day and to be able to skype with my brother!!! I miss my wingman and best friend, but he is having so much fun and I am so proud of him!!
So I have officially been graduated for a year now from college!! So so crazy. That year flew by. I am still amazed at how far I have come. A year ago I didn't know where I would be living and if I would be able to find a job. I'm now working in Logan, have a wonderful job in the hospital, and am working hard to move up to a full time position. Right now I am just PRN (as needed) nurse, but I work 2-3 shifts a week and sometimes am even the charge nurse if I work on the floor by myself. I still feel way too young to have a "grown-up" job so I try hard every day to prove that I earned the spot that I have and am competent to be working with other doctors and nurses. I get to do so many cool things and the job I have gives me experience in a lot of different areas.
I just moved from the townhouse I was living at to a three-plex on 200 east right by the mall with one of my old roomies Katie and we moved in with a couple other girls. It's super nice and we like it so far! It was very last minute, but it'll be fun to stay in Logan for the summer.
SUMMER is finally here!!!! Some things I'm looking forward to are Bear Lake trips, hiking, softball, fireworks, bonfires, snow cones, Seven Peaks and City Creek, NYC/DC trip, camping, parties with friends and family, turning 22, Sister Wankier coming home, and so much more!! This summer should be a good one.
Lately people think I do nothing but travel, but I tell people I just make good use of my days off :) Over the past month or so I took a couple trips to St. George; one with the roomies, and one with Katie and my family. Then I went to Park City with Kylie, Whit, and Megan for a little graduation party to celebrate them graduating with their Bachelor's in Nursing. They were all a lot of fun and it was always hard to go back to work haha.
Well that's all I can think of right now! I'll post some pics :)
Keep it real xoxo
