Honestly, I can't believe how fast time has gone by. When you are looking forward to something, it goes by sooo slow, and then all the sudden it's right around the corner. I can't believe our wedding is only 5 weeks away. There is SO much to do in the mean time - almost gives me anxiety thinking about it! I just pray that I can be diligent in my time and get this sucker completely planned!
Our move to Arizona is also in the back of our minds...well the front of Chase's. We already have literally 20 boxes of awesome gifts to pack up. That doesn't include any of our individual possessions - actually now I am really starting to hope the truck is big enough. By the way, if you are moving and need a "u-haul", don't actually get a U-Haul, try Budget truck rental. Uhaul was going to charge us $1500, Budget wanted to beat their competition and gave us the same truck, same size and same car carrier, for 900...wowzaaaa. Anyway, so we have furniture and a king size bed, a dresser, and a million boxes to put in this sucker. Hopefully my brosefs will help load the truck while Chase and I are on our honeymoon cause we have to LEAVE the night we get back from Aruba. Insane right, I know. Chase's job says the latest he can start is that Weds morning (we get back Sunday around 4pm) and they can't really budge because he is actually already starting later than their latest start date. So, we just gotta make it happen! The drive out to Phoenix is 28 hours. Possibly more with a big truck, I'm not sure. We aren't exactly sure how we are going to break down the drive yet. We have to arrive in Phoenix with enough time to at least unload the bed and few essentials!
On a slightly less complicated note, I sent in my application for licensure in Arizona. It was $230 all together, but well worth it. Gotta have a license to practice as an RN. Hopefully the process of getting licensed will be quick and I can apply for jobs. I have been looking online and seeing things I like. The next step is actually calling nurse recruiters and speaking to them. But man, with everything else going on, on top of grueling 14 hour days at the hospital, I have no idea when that's going to happen.
Let's just say this week long vacay to Aruba is going to be SO needed!
