Missing in action

Bet you though I had fallen off the face of the earth, huh?

Well, I kinda did. I have had a lot of changes lately. The biggest one was leaving my job at the law firm of 9 years to start my externship as a Medical Assistant.

Yup, that means I finished school! I am currently working at a local practice, with my last day actually being Monday. I have had one interview, another one scheduled for next week, and I have dropped off/faxed several resumes. There will be more job offers come next week when my school can start sending me out to their "top secret" employers.

The one job I have already interviewed for is really where I want to go..what I have always wanted to do...OB/GYN. One day, I will be a labor/delivery nurse, that's just what I have set out to do. This particular job just happens to be at my personal OB's office. Not for him, but one of his partners, which is fine. Weird events took place for this...see, my OB's wife happens to be my boys' pediatrician, who initially kicked my butt into gear to finishing my schooling. So, I called her up to talk to her hubby that night to see if it could help me out.

In the meantime, I too called the hubby (at his office mind you) to speak with him about it. I got his nurse who told me to fax a personal copy of my resume to the office manager, so I did. Well, all that was on a Friday. Come Monday, the OB was calling me and telling me to call his office manager personally and speak with her, as he had already spoken to her about me...awesome! Well, come to find out...the office manager is a client of one of the attorney's I worked for...weird...the receptionist I talked to was a lady I used to work with at a doctor's office several years ago, who also put in a good word for me. More awesom-er!

I interviewed and it was great. I won't know anything until this week...the thing is, I may not get it because I don't have my registration yet and won't get it until May. This particular practice says they can't hire you unless you have it...but, I think that might not be entirely true. We will just have to see.

The good thing...the person who will be filling in until they find someone is already on staff there, but will be leaving in August, so technically they have until then to hire someone...that's what the office manager told me....

...so, I am hoping that all the stars will align and that job will fall in my lap.

So there, that is that.

My baby Colty had a birthday (as did I) he turned 3 and I, turned...ahem, 29.

I just can't believe it!

It's Mardi Gras time!!



If you live in Louisiana, you now that about this time of year, people start gearing up for Mardi Gras! If it were up to us Louisianians, we'd probably celebrate it ALL year long! Valentine's Day gets a bit overlooked by this fandango!!

With that being said, I had some time this weekend to make up a Mardi Gras wreath for a mere $1.99! Seriously!

So, it may look a little tacky, but isn't that what Mardi Gras is all about anyway?!

Much love.

Have I mentioned how excited I am to be almost done with school and moving on from my current job at what I like to refer to as "The Farm" of 9 years?

Yeah, I am super excited to be leaving the farm soon. There are way too many bulls around here!!
I think I may take some pics tonight at class so you can see what I have been doing for the last 6 months!!

Much love.

No picture taking for me!

Yeah, so I am not going to me able to Mommytography 365! I thought I could swing it, but there is just too much for me to do what with working full time and going to school 4 nights a week!

Rest assured though, because in mid-February, I will be OUT of school and in the field! Yay! Hopefully life will get back to normal then! I miss blogging!

Much love.
