Good changes are coming this way!

I was definitely right with "having a good feeling." Long story short I was offered a social work position at one of the local hospitals. Knowing that I will be paying my rent with my new income instead of my savings is such a relieving feeling. Also, this job will be a great foot in the door and hopefully a great start for my career. It has been a bumpy road but I am starting to see the finish line and it feels really good. I am mostly looking forward to meeting new people and to have a place to bring the foods I want to make that I have been eying from Pinterest.

After reflecting back on my long weeks of unemployment, I learned that you can't come out of college and expect to find your dream job. Unemployment has allowed me to become more humble and realize that I need to start from the bottom if I want to have the career of my dreams. Honestly, my new job wasn't my dream job, actually I swore to myself I would never have a job like this but I think the big man upstairs new that this was exactly what I needed. Funny how that works...

Also! I almost forgot to mention that we have a new addition! I really wanted another kitty to "keep Zeke company" and was thinking of a kitten but we ended up taking in my friend's 3 1/2 year old cat, Biggie. 

Biggie has lived in the same apartment his whole life and still had his mom and sister so I could only imagine how hard it was for him to adapt from a 7 cat house hold to just him and Zeke.

It was really tough at first, Zeke was really aggressive and a downright bully but like everyone told me, I finally believed them that time is the only thing that helps. Biggie has found his place in the family and also in my closet. I think he loves my purses more than me.

Thankfully, this new change hasn't affected Zeke's sleeping schedule and he continues to fit in his 15 hour naps.
