well, we are back from Colorado and just in time cause now Colorado and western kansas are now covered in snow and ice. I was supposed to be in garden city this morning for a clinical, but Jon didn't think it was safe, so I had to reschedule.
We had an awesome time and know what we are getting eachother for our 1st anniversary- snow shoes!! we were the only dorks hiking the mountain without snow shoes. I had planned to take my snow boots but they got left by the door. Colorado is so beautiful in the winter, all snow covered!
I really liked the hospital in Sterling, but Jon hated the town. It doesn't really look like the wealthiest town, that's for sure. Size is comparable to emporia or great bend I'd say, but I'm not very good comparisons, so that may not be accurate. Not very many job options for Jon. We went to Greenley and they have a nice looking hospital and a university that is on the National exchange program with Fort hays. but they don't have a radiology program. There is one college on the program with radiology program, but it is in grand junction and thats all the way on the western side of colorado.
I passed my NET on monday in hutchinson so i'm going to apply for their radiology program for a back up option. I don't need anymore courses outside of the radiology courses so I don't know what I will do if I'm not selected for this year. Waste money on classes i don't need or take a year off, but they's rather select people who are currently in school. anyways..
Jon is going to get the kids after work on Friday and then we are going to Jon's grandma's for dinner on Christmas eve and then will head out east to the Thomas home for christmas day after dropping off the kids. can t wait to see you for the holidays and hope you all have a wonderful Christmas!
