The End of an Era

Other working title: Pro's and Con's

Today marks the beginning of the end of an era. Last night Jameson and I slept in the same bed at the same time and it was night outside. He has officially quit Target and is moving on to bigger and more responsible things. He, as I am sure will post about soon, is now a Psych Tech at a hospital up in West Valley. It takes an hour to get there from our current home so we are moving August 1st to Holladay. Where his drive will only be 16 minutes.

Did I fail to mention the best part? Oh... he is working a day shift :)

Our move would make my commute to work 40 minutes. And even though that is very do-able and Jameson made to sure let me know he would support me no matter what my decision, I have decided my services are better at home right now. We are playing with the idea of me picking up a serving job again if I want to earn some mad money and to get out of the house on occasion. Jameson has been so awesome through my constant "i'm quitting. no i cant. i'm quitting! no.... I really cant". I have loved this job more than any other job (Mother excluded) and I am incredibly sad to be leaving it. I put in my two weeks yesterday so I have 4 more left.

As sad as I am though, it doesn't compare to how happy I'll be to be sleeping with Jameson again.

That said, graves have been an incredible blessing for us. I know we've complained and y'all have called us crazy for doing them and our health has been a constant worry for everyone (including us) but really, these jobs have been amazing. Working graves has given us amazing gifts. We have spent more time together than any other couple in Provo I know because we have all day together. When I had Chloe he was here to help me all day (I seriously believe that is why I didnt get baby blues). It enabled him to continue going to school full time. It allowed me to make more in less time. And countless other blessings.

Graves, you have been fun. We will miss you in some ways I'm sure. But, like Jameson told me the other day, "You could tell you felt better about life after being on maternity leave because you were getting sleep".

Here is to getting a good night's sleep and feeling better about life.
