1. Scott officially has a new job!! While in the float pool, he started working on the 7th floor of the Murray hospital a few times in a row. He started talking to the manager on that floor who told him about a position and to put in an application. Scott then started figuring things out with his contract with the float pool (he was under contract to work there a year) and got it changed to where he could transfer to another floor. On Tuesday, Scott got a call from the HR department saying that he was a top candidate for the position. On Wednesday, he checked his e-mail and got a message saying that everything was good to go with his contract and when can he start (the message was actually sent Monday, but he didn't see it until Wednesday). Scott called and asked about it and found out that the job was already his when he was putting in an application. He starts December 9th and we are so excited for him to have a job with guaranteed hours!! The float pool job was a blessing, but he definitely need something more constant with the money. Anyways, basic idea of this long paragraph is, Scott has a new job on the Orthopedics floor at the Murray hospital working day shifts (7am-7pm) with guaranteed full-time hours. Woo-hoo!
2. Our new T.V. is working great! It is still crazy to think that we own this, but it is fun to have. We moved our other T.V. and stand downstairs and is the start to making Scott's "man cave".
3. Thanks to Kristene I don't have to make a Christmas wreath for our door! It's not a wreath, but it's cute!
4. Speaking of Christmas, there are only 3 weeks left of school until Christmas break! It's going to sneak up on us just like Thanksgiving did. I need to get out and do some Christmas shopping and decorate the house.
5. I'm taking on Scott's challenge of only spending $10 for dinner meals for the week. This doesn't include things like Scott's beloved fruit and other basic things like milk, eggs, bread, etc. While planning, it has really helped me look at what we already have and using that rather than buying extra, which is what I've done before. Hopefully doing this maybe twice a month will help us save some money!
6. I'm going to add a sixth one today and say that Scott made chocolate chip cookies all by himself. Now this is a feat if you know Scott and how much he cooks (never). He really wanted them, but I didn't want to make them so he followed a recipe on the back of a bag of chocolate chips. Of course, I was yelling to the kitchen of things he should do or where stuff was, but they are pretty yummy! Good job husband!
