Big surprise, November somehow snuck up on me and I'm behind on updating this blog- per usual!
I'm officially one of those crazy night-shift nurses! I have loved working at Rose so far, and despite the occasional lack of sleep to function like a normal person, nights are not too bad at all. I have converted my bedroom into a dark sleeping cave and absolutely love my new mattress so things are working out.
In other news, we found an apartment! Kaela and I are living within the city limits of Denver- so much for getting out of the city, but the 15 minute drive to work is nice and it only takes a bit for me to get to my horses for a break... I have been trail riding in Conifer with Jamie, riding Duke with Brittany, and working with Lucian with Rose so there is no lack of equine in my life!

As an alternate to four-legged transportation, I finally sold Ralphie the cr-v and purchased my first new car, Bentley the rav-4. I have been cruising around town and love the new-car feel!

Social life has been booming, despite the silly night schedule. A group of 12 or so of my friends and I are doing rotating weekly dinners to keep in touch and just have fun playing games. So far they have all been really tasty and a ton of fun! I went boating with Maria and Kay, to my cousin Katie's wedding in St. Louis, shopping with Brittany, and to the Notre Dame vs USAFA game with Maggie, Megan, Katie, and Reid. All in all life after graduation is great, now go put on your pajama pants inside out and tuck a spoon under your pillow in hopes that there will soon be snow on the mountains for ski season!

Hope all is well with you and that you are enjoying equally wonderful fall weather!
