Ah ha! There it is!

So the predicted rejection letter from that ICU position came today. I was pleased that it was different from the other letters I've gotten. I just gotta keep trucking along!!

I have decided that I am going to put in my notice at the hospital. I am exhausted from working so much, and it's taking away from my job search. I am sad about leaving, but I have to give up on this idea that there will be a position for me there. Maybe down the road I can come back when I have more experience under my belt, but for now, I gotta let it go.

The dinner we made for our friends went really well. We haven't been able to invite people over for the last 2 years because I was just too busy, and it was just a bit awkward to arrange. I would have friends over for study sessions, but that was it. So it was nice to be able to get back to having people over and entertaining again!

I am at a standstill with decorating. I am wanting to up floating shelves everywhere, and I need to slow it down before I put a bunch of holes in the walls. The curtains are up, the prints I bought are framed and on the wall, and it's definitely feeling more like home more and more every day. Mom-in-law helped us a couple of weeks ago get this awesome utility table carted to our place from Hobby Lobby. It definitely was the piece I was wanting for the kitchen.

I am still struggling with what to do with the dining table. More and more, I fall back in love with the one we have. We got it when we first moved in together, and I loved. There is a big chip on the top, and scratches. I think I may get a white tablecloth and dress it up somehow. I just can't find any tables that I like enough, or within the amount I'm willing to pay. But I'm a bit tired of looking at this stuff right now. I am pleased with the progress of our place, but I still have a ways to go!!

Oh, and I have found a new wine I love... Moscato!! I finished my first bottle of that tonight!! :) I am definitely looking forward to building up a good stockpile of wine! :)
