I know everyone has been anxiously awaiting this, and here it is! Sorry, It has taken me a little while to sit down and type this.  I know everyone is wondering how my new job is going and how I am doing since I have been a little slanked on the communciate department for the last month or so. I haven't even called my parents(But I plan to call tommorrow-probably by the time they read this:P) I finished up my last night at PET on Oct 31st! Man, was I never so excited to leave a job before! But, let me back up a little, on saturday oct 29( a rare sat night,  happened to have off) Graham and I were able to go to a Hay Day party. I dressed up as a Indian(or to be PC- a native american).  Heres a pic
I didn't have as much time to invest in this years costume as I did to invest in last years two costumes


Heres the pics from last years costumes



For those who don't already know... I was an x-ray film



This is the party I went to last year in CO, I was Mrs. Potts(you know from Beauty and the Beast)





We had a good time at the party. It was thrown by some friends from church. It was fun for me to finally get a chance to get to know these people. The next day which was sunday- it started to snow! That was the first snow of the season. So I worked sunday night and monday night and I started my new job wednesday morning. I worked all day wednesday, and since I have thrusdays off I was able to rest on thrusday. I also cleaned and sanitized the kitchen, went grocery shopping, and did laundry. Then I worked all day friday, and then saturday morning. Once I got off work on saturday, I went to a christmas food and fun festival which was held in denver last year- I went and really liked in Denver so I wanted to check it out here. It was not as large as the one in Denver, and there was not any really good booth so this one here was okay- but if there is another one next year then I will probably check it out. There is art and crafts festival next weekend so I will check that one out too. Sunday- I was able to go to church service for the first time in several weeks(I was able to attend one service in oct, but I slept the whole time, so I decided to wait to go back until I started my new job).

Now I have officially worked there a week, I really like it. The people are great and so far there has been no drama. Everyone seems to get along. I enjoy going to work and I enjoy meeting all the clients and pets. I am pretty worn out when I get home, and I am going to sleep pretty early. But thankfully, I am not waking up around 2 or 3am any more. Usually by 9pm, I am falling sleep. I am usually asleep by 10pm-which is so nice! I am slowly catching up on all the hours of sleep I missed working at PET. Now, with the time change it gets dark close to 5pm and for now the sun rises about 9pm. We will continue to lose about 4 minutes a day making the day(number of sunlight hours) shorter, until the winter solstice, then we will slowly gain minutes again until the summer solstice when on that day we will get 24hours of sunlight (and thus the cycle continues). We have gotten alot snow lately we got about a foot at the end of last week and we got about 8 more inches this week. So there is alot of snow!:) The temperaures have been in the steady 20s and teens for highs then dropping in low teens and single digits for the lows. So it is pretty cold too! I got my last paycheck from PET on friday(11/11/11) and I get paid this friday from this new job. So, we will have a little extra this month. We have been invited to a Thanksgiving dinner by some other members of the church so we have to figure out what to bring to that and now that I am no longer at a emergency clinic- I will have the day off. I think there is plans for a thanksgiving meal on thrusday and friday. Possiblely, some snow playing activities for the weekend too! I also will have Dec 24-26 off. I am excited about that. Today, I was able to go out and get more scrubs and few more long sleeves so I don't have to do laundry every week.
I am happy. I enjoy having free time to have hobbies again. It is also nice not to be tired all the time.
In the words of Porky the Pig.... Thats all for now, Folks!
