...at work. If you have not seen us lately, then that is why. There has been so very much going on in our little nursing home! Our residents are the most lovable people that I have ever met. Of course, I am not allowed to get into great detail due to our confidentiality policies, but not one day is the same as the next. Levi and I have worked it out to where he and I can work on the same shift on almost all of the same days, which is AWESOME. It makes it a lot easier when I would normally want to come home and tell him all of the fun stories from my day. As of now, Levi would actually like to pursue a career as a Registered Nurse to work in hospice or in a hospital. Of course, I still don't know for sure.
See, I am a bit more complicated. I am still in the phase where I want to be one thing today and another tomorrow. As it is, I keep coming back to wanting to teach grade school. That, at least, seems to be the most regular plan! I think it would be a smart match for who I am. My philosophy on the whole career path schpeel is that in order to live peacefully in America, you must make a certain amount of money. If I am to conform to this lifestyle in order to live the way I wish (kind of contradictory, eh?) then I will need to work a regular 8-5 job 5 days a week. If I am going to devote that much of my precious time on earth to something that I am required to do, then I WILL make it my #1 priority to choose a career path that feels more like fun than work--something that I enjoy and can easily do even on days I feel crummy. And today, that is what my rationalization of it is.
Any way that it happens, I know where everything will end up and that I can rest safely, knowing who not only created tomorrow, but also holds it in His hands.
"Trust in the Lord with all of your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight."
~Proverbs 3:5-6
