Heading to Chicago

I just made a flight reservation to head to Chicago in March. Clay is happy, because he gets to go home. It will be nice. Our apartment lease is up at the beginning of April, and since we seem to be staying in North Carolina for the time being, it's time to get rid of the apartment. That's right, if you have read past entries, I have a house in Los Angeles, an apartment in Chicago, and a rental house in North Carolina. How am I not eating cat food? Who knows really. It will be nice to head back to a large city, I miss being in a city. It's time to move forward though, and getting rid of the apartment is one of the requirements for that. My tenant in L.A. has been handed down the ultimatum, and we'll see what happens there. He has until the end of the week to come up with all the back rent or he has to move out. If he has to move out, then I'll sell the house and be done with it. Woohoo!! 2008 is starting out in a pretty interesting way. I really think by the end of this year I'll have a long term plan worked out, and it will be in full swing.

My job is changing, I will no longer be an ICU Nurse. I'm moving to the surgery department next week. I'm a little nervouse about this, it's like starting a whole new job. I'm excited though, to learn new things. It gets me a Monday through Friday schedule, except the weekends that I'll be on cal. That won't happen for a few months, I have to be trained first. This year is full of all kinds of changes that I'm enjoying.

My new car is working out pretty well. I like having a car that starts on the first try. Plus the heated seats are quite a bonus. Defrost is nice too. It's very weird for me to have a new car, it's one of things I never thought would happen to me. I know that may be silly, it's pretty easy to get financing for a car. But still, just something I never thought about doing.

So I hope all is well for whatever random person is reading this. I know I don't have the most exciting life. I enjoy it, and I'm happy. So that's what counts.
