Week two!

So far, week two has been off to a pretty good start, well I guess more than a start because today is thursday, but you know what i mean.... I'm remembering where things are and starting to feel more like a "real" employee rather than feeling like I'm still in student mode. I've been with mostly itty bittys for the past few days, but today I got to see some of the older rehab kids which i love doing. As much as I am completely happy feeding a baby, I really really love working with teenagers. I love being able to ask them how they are feeling, joke around with them, make them laugh. Its so fun and I feel like when I help them out of bed, or teach them a new way to do something it really matters and makes their life easier amongst so much stress and suckiness of being sick. Anyways, it was a fun day which is pretty great to get to say about working. I'm starting to feel like I'm really going to enjoy my work most days which is such a good feeling. Oh! And I found out that one day per week I'll be doing therapy in the pool which I'm excited about! I've never done this before, so I have a lot to learn, but I think that it will be a great way to break up the week and try something different. I'm all set with my new navy and red one piece TYR swimsuit and I start next wednesday with training... I'll let you know how it goes.

In other news, Ryan and I have been busily seeing free movie screenings lately. We have a system down and its amazingly efficient. In fact, we usually have free tickets to 2-3 movies per week if we would like, its just a matter of choosing which ones to go to! This week we have seen "The Watchmen" which was LONG!!! Super LONG!!! And sort of comic bookie with a weak plot, but lots of blowing people up and pouring hot oil on their faces sort of stuff (I was not a fan... ryan and pat enjoyed it i think, maybe its a guy thing), but last night we went to see "Sunshine Cleaning" with Amy Adams (who I love!) and Emily Blunt (who I also love!), and I LOVED it! Cute indy movie about two sisters down on their luck and their biohazard/crime scene cleaning business... oh yes, it is good, definitely go see it when its out in theaters! We have tickets to a third screening tonight, but I think we may have had enough for one week.

Sooo... i'm settling into this new pace and schedule and doing pretty well for the most part. I'm missing my morning walk with the doggers and ryan to the bagel shop, followed by leisurely days of reading, movies, blogging and fun, but I'm happy to finally join the world of working adults. More to come... love amb
