Well, Nick made a decision about employment. He signed a contract to work for Sav*On pharmacies (the pharmacy inside Albertson's stores). All of his hard work has paid off. It is such a blessing, and I don't think it is coincidence- that the signing bonus they offered him is EXACTLY enough to pay off his student loans. Someday soon we may be able to call in to the Dave Ramsey show, and do the "we're debt free!" shout.
I am confident that Nick will pass the NAPLEX with ease, and it ought to be smooth sailing from there. Nick has to fly to Massachusetts (on my birthday, no less) for a week-long training session. I'd go with him, but the thought of lugging Reagan halfway across the country is enough to deter me from planning the trip.
In other news.... we found out that Reagan will be getting another boy cousin (my sister is having a boy. Congratulations, Heather!). Reagan will just be happy to have someone smaller than her to play with.
This week Reagan hasn't been able to play with her cousin Lance, at all; because Lance has RSV- AGAIN! It is so sad. I would have thought that the season of sickness would have been over by now, since it is March- but no such luck. Reagan hopes you get well soon- Lance. She misses the Cheetos that you sneak to her when Mommy isn't looking.
Lastly, thanks to everyone who commented on my last post. The link to the youtube video that Kari (Kari N.- I am assuming???) left was AWESOME! Too bad we can't show it to the members of the Court in CA that are hearing arguments today about overturning Prop. 8. Since when does the minority get to be the majority, just because they throw a big enough temper tantrum?! The people in CA already voted and the MAJORITY made their opinion known that Prop. 8 was the way to go. If the Court overturns the vote I suppose it will just be another "sign of the times"- we'll all find out the verdict in less than 90 days, right? Here's hoping that the CA court does the right thing.
