Cody's New Job, Wedding, Break, Birthday & Studying!

It has been a busy but exciting few weeks! First, Cody is officially the newest employee of the Anchorage Golf Club! He was hired as the Head Professional, so he'll be in charge of the pro shop, scheduling, interns, and day-to-day operations. He's been in contact with the Golf Operations Manager (who worked this winter in Florida as well) and he had his interview last week. His compensation package just came in, which was just what he expected so he happily accepted the position! They wanted him to start April 1, however, his current employer, Mountain Lake, requested he stay until April 15. Cody's looking into flights from Orlando to Anchorage (now, THAT's a long journey) for April 16 or so. He'll most likely have to stay in a hotel/rent a car for a week or so, before I hope to get up there. Now, we're trying to coordinate travel, moving, and organizing what we will need for our apartment.

New Year's found me in O'Neill, NE for my roommate's winter wedding. It ended up blizzarding all weekend, but the wedding still went on (although they considered postponing it). It was literally the winter wonderland that she had pictured.

This holiday season found me enjoying a long, leisurely time at home (probably the last time I'll ever spend 3 weeks at home again!). Erin and I did some coffee-shop studying, and we had numerous nights of game-playing: pinochle, nerts, aggravation, and 10,000 :( ... we also spent some quality time trying new recipes, including a cream puff tower and spinach-articoke dip!

I celebrated my 23rd birthday yesterday in just my style: low-key. Thank you to all that sent well wishes, cards, or gifts. I'm very grateful, although 23 isn't all that exciting... much like 22 (and I heard they only get worse!). I look forward to spending my next birthday with Cody!

Lastly, I'm now only 1 week away from taking the NCLEX, my nursing boards. Please send a quick prayer when you have a minute this week and especially at 8:00am January 14th!

Now, obviously my study break to update the blog is through... back to the books!
