Day 158-161

So I didn't exactly take this picture, but it is this or nothing because I'm lazy. I'm in the middle of a huge project so my camera had been tied up taking pictures of the progress, and all will be revealed later! :)

My thoughts are going wild today, so I'm going to list them to separate them out:

• THE PACKERS WON!!!!!! I'm sooo excited! And during the Packer game I biked 44.5 miles. That puts me at 167.3 miles in 2011 so far! So awesome!

• I've been working quite a bit lately. Put in my first catheter and my first death. I'm sure I will have many other firsts as time goes on. Work is going good so far. I'm just coming off a three day weekend and will be working 5 days this week. $$$ :)

• Things are being put together all over the house: my crafting project, my baker's rack, my jewelry box. Our house is becoming much more of a home and I love it!

• Which brings me to the realization that now that we are married we need to sort out the next steps... houses? babies? or sitting on cruise control? I think we finally have a lead on sorting out the housing situation and how to pay off student loans while saving up for a house. The big blur in the future is slowly taking shape.

I also feel like I'm at such a different place than many of my friends. I have a lot of family and a few friends who are married and settled down, but for the most part all of my friends are single. A couple have serious boyfriends, but are not so serious as to be living with them. I've seen it happen numerous times where after you start to have a family the non-committed friends drift away. I have a pretty strong feeling about the people who are in for the long haul, but it is hard to know which of the others will drift. When you are different places in life common ground is often hard to find. But many of you reading this, probably know this and are sick of my rambling.... I digress. Just some of the many things I think about when I look toward the future and what it might hold.

On the other hand,.... my future starts tomorrow! I can't wait! Bring it on!
