Job good...

I am now officially and gainfully employed by St. Vincent's Hospital, here in Santa Fe. I start work tomorrow morning at 9 am. Now, while this is by no means my ideal job, it does pay well and the benefits are very nice. It will suit my schedule while I am in school and doing my clinicals and even better, my shifts will be scheduled during the time that Patrick will be at work too. Mary Karshis and Lois are both very excited about my working at the hospital and even Patrick is thinking of applying if Blue Corn doesn't work out well for him. All in all, not a bad situation.
Patrick and I went out to Rio Rancho to visit my dad for Father's Day today. He is doing so well on his liquid diet and has lost 27 lbs. in 3 weeks! I'm really proud of him and the fact that this has become a priority in his life. He and Lizza do water aerobics twice a week and he is really enjoying that. I think he is starting to be a little more optomistic now that he is feeling a lot better.
Patrick and I are still comfortable with our decision to stay here in Santa Fe, especially now that we have work and school going on. Today we took our first Medical Terminology test and we both got 100%. I'm really pushing to earn 4.0s each semester so that I don't have to worry about getting into a good program and grad school. I'm a little worried about A&P next semester, but I think with a little dedication, I'll be fine.
I joined the Curves gym here in Santa Fe and although it is nicer than the one in Ann Arbor, I don't like it as much. I think that after my membership is done in October, I will drop it and join a gym with more of a variety of facilities that will allow for a more thorough exercise routine.
I haven't spoken with Gemma in a while, I need to call her.
Julie is busy planning her wedding and it sounds as though things are going smoothly - Kelly is helping her and from what I can see so far, is doing a great job. I still need to figure out what to give them for their wedding.
Patrick is hinting that it is time to go to sleep.
Nite.
