Sisters
Today I was reading this, and I thought about these ladies.
I have been thinking about how wonderful life is with my sisters. They have truly been one of the greatest blessings in my life. Despite the fact that they have been "angels" in my life on several occasions, they are also my best friends. I can't imagine my life without them.
I just want to say thank you. Thank you to Susan and Becca who helped me get through my last semester of school with little newborn Grayson. Thank you for watching him without any question. I appreciated your help so so so much. And thank you for inviting me to dinner and bringing me dinner when we were scraping for pennies. And thank you for hanging out with me on the days that I was bored at home with nothing to do.
And thank you to Liz. Oh Liz, what would I do without you? I appreciate your help with Grayson too--with this new job life has been so crazy, and you have been right beside me willing to help when you can. And thank you for always being a friend and laughing at my ridiculousness.
I feel like I have had so much help and not helped each of you out enough. So I propose this. Becca, Susan and Liz, let me watch your kids one night so you and your sweet husbands can have a night out. Call me and we'll set it up!

This Week
The past two weeks have been pretty crazy for me. I started my orientation at Utah Valley Regional Medical Center last week. I have to work at three different hospitals for my job, and I have to be oriented at each place. Utah Valley was the last place I needed to go, and now I am done orienting there--done orienting completely and I am so relieved.
Last week I had to orient to the night shift. I worked Tuesday, Thursday and Friday night. Then I had to orient to days this week and work Sunday, Monday and Thursday. The transition was killer. I came home Saturday morning last week and slept until about 3:30 in the afternoon. When it came time to go to bed that night, I couldn't go to bed of course. So I ended up laying in bed awake most of the night and had to get up to go to work the next morning. I was exhausted. I worked all day and then came home to pretty much go to bed and wake up and go right back to work.
I was so excited for Tuesday to come because I didn't have to go to work, but I was dreading it at the same time because I had to get my wisdom teeth out. I went to the dentists office and we got started. They were just going to give me local anesthetic and I initially thought I could handle it without the gas to help me relax. As getting my wisdom teeth yanked out came closer, I decided I wanted the gas. Wow. I love that stuff. During the extraction I felt like I was totally asleep but completely awake at the same time. I could feel my dentist yanking around, and I didn't care one bit. On one side, my wisdom teeth came out easy. The other side was a bit more extensive than they thought it would be. I guess I have curved canals and it made it really difficult. My dentist said it was the hardest extraction he's done in years. He was able to get the bottom one (on the right side) out completely, but the upper one on the same side didn't come all the way. He had to leave pieces of my roots in because they were too close to my sinuses and he didn't want to go there. Apparently they will either dissolve or my body will extract them sometime...? He sent me home with pain killers and antibiotics.
Wednesday I was SO swollen and SO sore. I would post pictures, but it is completely embarrassing. And Thursday...I had to work the night shift. I made it until about 3 o'clock in the morning, and then I came home. It was really slow and I wasn't doing anything anyways. Everyone said I should go and just rest my mouth. I agreed.
So...I actually got a little more sleep last night than I planned.
I have a week off now and I'm so so so so glad. I feel like I've lived at work this week and haven't been able to spend time with my family. Don't have any plans yet this week, but I'm sure it will be bliss.
And here are some pictures from Christmas and then some...
