MY FIRST BLOG! EEK!

Oh my gosh y'all it's my first blog!!  I'm so nervous!! What if it's boring?! What if no one reads this!?  If they do, then what if they hate it!?  What if all those grammar nazis call me out on run on sentences and the correct use of there, their, and they're?!  You know what I have to say to you people?  It's probably going happen so I'm just gonna need you to deal with it!...Just kidding, don't hate me please.

I've been wanting to start a blog for a while, you know, because I think I'm so interesting the world needs to know what's happening in my life I think it's a super neat way to get ALL THE THOUGHTS out of my head and it's way better than writing in my anablog aka journal.  (I feel like I've got a lot of run on sentences already...oops...) Also, I can't just sit back and let Ryan have a blog all by himself. I have my own side to our story!

From what I've learned from reading and enjoying other blogs, it's probably time to insert a picture.
That's me and Ryan at Oktoberfest in El Cajon! 
Apparently it's cool in Germany to wear these hats and do (borderline inappropriate) hand gestures to a song about a garden gnome...I think...the point is we didn't get to keep the hats---which means some sweaty polka dancer was wearing that hat last weekend. Gag. I just thought of that.

So back to MY FIRST BLOG!!  I can't tell you what this blog is going to be about...(Whatever I dang well please!  That's what!)  Sorry for all the yelling I'm excited :) I just want to go wherever my little heart wants to go.  In case you don't already know, I'm not into making long term commitments.  I like flyin' by the seat of my pants. 

Things you may see in this little blog include, but are not limited to:
  • Fun things we do 
  • The nurse side of travel nursing
  • Probably something about how I'm gonna run a half marathon in January (What the heck, I just said that out loud!?)
  • A little bit lot about Pearl
  • Lists
  • Lots of beach pictures until January
  • Some things about our trips home
  • Lessons life taught me
  • How I wish all healthy food tasted like Flamin' Hot Cheetos instead of grass
  • And then probably some boring stuff---What? Some days we I just like to sit at home, watch the Today Show, and play on Pinterest all day!  Who am I kidding, that's most days, HA!
I think it's time for another picture.  
This is where inspiration to run 13.1 miles came from.  I ran about 4.75 mi today...almost there...or not so much...and I walked some...and then I got a migraine, took two Excedrin right before bed, and BAM! a blog happened at 2 o'clock in the morning.  Seriously, I'm not even a little tired.

So, what I'm fixing to do is use this caffeine high to punch out a couple more posts and get on top of this whole blogging thing and call it a night!  Or get on Pinterest...I haven't decided yet.

How To Be a Happy Traveler PART II

Part I was the biggie. Having a positive working experience greatly effects overall satisfaction with travel nursing. In this post I'm going to list a few other things you can do to ensure you have the best possible time seeing the states! HAVE REALISTIC HOUSING EXPECTATIONS You really can't expect to live in luxury housing everywhere you go. In my four assignments I've taken my company's housing 3 times. The first was great! the second was eh, and the third was average. Every apartment we had was safe, clean, and close to the hospital. And to be honest, the second place was probably better than "eh" but the first apartment set high expectations. Those'll get ya. It'll all depends on what city you're in and the cost of living. The cost of living in a "luxury" 2 bedroom apartment in Texas is the same month's rent as a grungy studio in LA (note: we did not live in a grungy studio in LA).

Hello Chi Town!

Ryan and I are officially settled in our new city. We've really lucked out in the weather department so far, I'm hoping it stays that way till January 2nd. Fingers crossed. Everyone here seems to think it's going to get really cold. Haven't they heard about El Nino!? :) Oh. My. Goodness. The move in to Chicago was probably the easiest in my 3 year travel experience. I've started going through a new travel agency and our housing comes fully furnished down to the silverware-without any extra cost to me! If we really wanted to make it easy on ourselves we could've just traveled with our dogs and our suitcases and been just fine. Going with this new company has definitely been a learning curve. I'll cover the pros and cons of large/small travel agencies in another post. I'm definitely likin' the way things are going so far,  but my momma didn't raise no dummy so I'm cautiously optimistic. We spent our first two days here getting to know our a
