I got a job


This was James last week rushing through his lunch between interviews.

Yes that's right, I Have a Job!!!! I was officially hired today. I start next Tuesday bright and early. I have crossed over to the adult world. I am a chemo infusion nurse in an outpatient cancer center. It is 10 hours a day, 4 days a week (the day off rotates). I am so excited for no more weekends or holidays or night shifts. I can be a normal person :P.

And I owe it all to my wonderful brother Jeff Koning! Thanks for lookin' out Family.

Hey Alyssa,

I'm so glad to hear that you got the job! And that schedule sounds amazing too! I remember you mentioning that you wanted a 10 hour/4 days a week schedule years ago when you started nursing. It is great to see things working out for you guys and I hope you really enjoy your work at your new job. Ev and I think about you guys daily and we are amazed at your ability to persevere! We hope to see you soon!

Jeff
