Hi everyone!!!!! I miss talking with you wonderful people!!! oh so much has happened... that I need to update you guys!!!! wonderful things are happening! yay!!!!

After much thinking I finally quit my job at SMOC as the Program Coordinator for the Home Modification Loan Program for people with disabilities ... oh I cryed and cryed!!! after 11 years working with absolutely wonderful people...
But I was having serious emotional problems!!! every time one of my subscriptions of RN Magazine, or Nursing 2008 arrived I got really sad and missed nursing so much! so one day I realized that I was never going to hate my job enough to leave or be sick and tired of my friends at work to say good bye... so I started looking for job as a nurse and was on my way to a job fair in Boston when I decided to call Lahey Clinic to see if they had any openings on the floor I was working and needless to say I never made it to the job fair because I was offered my old job! so this past week I started my career as a nurse 100%... I am SOOOOO happy... having sooo much fun... so much that the commute is not bothering me as much as it did before... I am going to be working 2 days 7am -7pm and 2 evenings 3-11 ... perfect because I get to work with everyone I love... oh I love my colleagues... actually I never really forgot them or let them forget me! lol...
What a warm reception I had... and they are happy to have me back... so even if I had to get up really early all week I was still happy on Friday! I actually learned a lot this week and I already had 4 patients last Friday... I still have a preceptor for another 5 weeks or more if I feel I need it, but other than that pretty much I am a nurse! yay!!!!!

So the other good news is that my job will not going to interfere with gardening... I will have at least one day off during the week!!!! so sweet... and the weekends I have to work evenings so I have the day to garden.... perfect for me!!!! you know I have certain priorities...

The family is ok... the nephews are still so cute and healty... mom is also good... and things are going well right now!!!

ah, I got a shed... built in just for me... so cute... and a 3 way system compost bin... oh I am so happy about that... I will post pics later today... I am dying to go outside and garden later... but it's raining so I am not sure what is going to be today...

Last sunday I went to tower hill with Deb (taberlin) for the Orchid show... oh my goodness I took 300 pics... and left the place with 2 orchids... the first ones... oh it's so Deb's fault!!! lol... so I will post some pics here... I really loved it... they are gorgeous plants... no I am not getting any more... they are more expensive than roses...
