A sign



Wow! Can't believe how long it has been since I last blogged. I have been so busy keeping up with FB changes, work, and 1/2 marathon training. Each week life here in Tucson tends to get busier. Weekends are spent with our friends, golf, and chores. It has been tough keeping up with the yard. With all the recent rain, our weeds have been growing out of control.

Well on another note, my last blog focused on how I gave up my dream job. This week that same job with a different company popped right back on the job internet sites. I just happened to be home that day and decided what the heck, I am going to apply. Monday, I applied, went in for an interview that afternoon and all sounded really good. I had a really good feeling about this one. It was a smaller clinic, and my gut instinct immediately told me not to let this one go. On Wednesday I had a second interview with a panel of seven people. It still looked positive. On Friday, I was called with a job offer. I couldn't believe it. These jobs never surfaced our first year here. After touring the clinic, I knew I had to brush up on my Spanish, and quickly. Was this a sign? I contemplated on my last decision asking myself how I could turn down such a good job, and here I was given a second chance at that very same job. I felt ready at that very moment. Working full time again and doing what I love doing suddenly felt right. So starting October 12th, I will officially start my new job as a WIC Director. I will also be the RD consultant for the medical clinic. I will miss my PRN position and all the people I have met and worked with these past few months. At the end of the day, my heart is with public health and helping to make a difference in the lifes of those who truly need my help.
