My new job!!!

So awhile ago I figured out that my old job at the Bone Marrow Transplant wasn't fitting in our life anymore so I decided to go out and find a new one.....and that I did. I have always known that I wanted my career to eventually end up in the Hospice realm but I don't think I am quite there yet so I found a job in the Home Health~Palliative Care at Evergreen Hospital. I am working 100% of the time from home or in patients home and I am loving it. Since I have never been great with authority, this jobs gives me the freedom to set my own schedule and on top of all of it.....NO MORE WEEKENDS OR CRAZY NIGHTSHIFTS!!!!! I have been working in this position for almost a month now and I can say I have no complaints!

Stay tuned for other life updates including becoming an Aunt and Uncle for the first time!!!!

795 damn its fine

Well..... lots of changes around the Friedrich household!! Hence the lack of blog updates.....sorry avid readers!! One of the biggest changes has been our change in living arrangements. We moved from our wonderful 1300 sq ft 2 bedroom place in Belltown to a very cozy 795 sq ft one bedroom house on Lake Union. Our reason for downsizing: we wanted to save money so we can buy our dream house. Our new house, although really tiny, is SOOO fun.

Reasons I love our new house:

1. Its brand new and PRETTY: although that's probably not #1 on Scott's list if you asked him
2. The amazing 500 sq ft deck out onto the lake
3. The very cozy home office for me to work out of for my new job: Ill expand on that in another post
4. How fun it is to enjoy this pretty house with my husband
5. Finally knowing for the first time in 2 years what it is like to sleep through the night and not wake up to "traffic" noises
6. How quiet the neighborhood is
7. LuLu, the 7 year old socialite who lives next door
8. Our view of the lake
9. Its a good trial run for home ownership
10. How perfect it fits our life right now!! ( Okay Maybe that was cheesy!!!)

So stay tuned and we will keep you more filled in our life......We promise (its the Lenten season after all!!)
