I have been meaning to post a new entry for a few days now, but things have been crazy! I have been trying to change my blog template several times lately, but I keep getting error messages. So for now I have a boring template until I get some help from the experts.
So I have some great news! I was offered a job on Thursday! And now just any job, mind you--a full time dietitian position in a long term care company! I was not looking for a job, as I was so sure that nothing was going to turn up in this area for a while. A lady in my ward told me about this opening in Twin, and I thoughtI would be stupid not to at least look into it. I felt pretty confident after the first interview, but when I found out I was going to be the only dietitian for two very busy care centers/nursing homes owned by the same company, and that they were offering way better compensation than the hospital dietitian positions in the area, I knew I did not have a prayer? Why would they hire me when I am fresh out of school?
Well, I have learned over the last few days that God has a plan for me, and this is something I am supposed to do. Everything has just fallen into place, and I feel so humble and greatful. This is not what I planned for this stage in my life, but here I am and I am trying to have faith.
My manager and coworkers at Wells Fargo are shocked that I am leaving after only working here for two months, but they understand and I hope there will be no ill feelings.
As a side subject, my sister, Brianna, is getting married next Saturday, and her reception is Friday night from 5-7 p.m. in my parent's backyard. It is the homecoming football game that night, and if any of you are planning on beig in Firth that weekend, please stop by my parent's house so I can say hi. Hopefully the weather will be good for my sister that day!

Congrats on the new job! I think it is awesome you were inspired to apply for this job in Twin...doing exactly what you are qualified for. I loved my teaching job at I.S.U. and I know it was inspired from Heavenly Father!
