A quick post to catch you up on my wild life!

Since spending a bit over 2 months in Peru so much has happened. I’m a working registered nurse now: from adolescent in-patient psych, to critical-stabilization unit adult psych, to orthopedics, to telemetry, and now adult out-patient oncology. I’m married, I’ll have to tell you that amazing story sometime in another post. Quick preview: I came back from Peru finding out my then boyfriend had cheated on me while I was away, leading me to immediately meet my next boyfriend while he was 1,541 miles away, marrying him in secret, then renewing our vows in celebration! Because of the new come-together, Jolie and I gained my husband Michael and his 2 fur babies Cami and Buddy, adorable basset hounds. We picked up a bearded dragon named Chino and a previously homeless boxer named Bailey along the way. As I write this update from what this blog knows to now, I must point out all of those family members have died since, husband included. More about my husband dying in my next post: spoiler alert, the hospital revived him many times! I’m the bread-winner of my household due to life changing circumstances that made me figure out how to make enough money to continue to reach out goals: thank you options trading. I’m a semi-crunchy mom to an amazing almost 2 year old. I’m a co-host to a podcast. I’m an out of shape, exhausted, no-longer-a-runner woman in my 30s… where did the time go?! Today my family consists of my husband Mike, my daughter Mac, Mikes hearing dog Tracy, and our newest rescue dog Bear. It’s been a wild ride and I cannot wait to keep you all up to date again!
