Getting ready to go... intro

So here is our blog page, a way to stay connected to our friends and family and new friends we meet on the way! We leave for a travel nursing adventure next week. Amy is a nurse and will be working with travel nursing agencies for three month contracts all over the United States. Matt is currently without a steady job, but is so excited about our new business Reliv. Where he will be helping people we meet along the way, with their health and finances!

Next Thursday we leave for Wisconsin where we will be for the summer. Friday I found out that my nursing license has been issued for WI, which was sort of an ordeal and all the paperwork is complete, so we are ready to go and work! The amount of paper work needed to be ready feels enormous for the first travel assignment, so it is a relief to have it all complete. I will be working in Menomonee Falls, WI, which is a suburb of Milwaukee. I will be at Community Memorial Hospital in the step down unit, working nights for the first time ever! Which should be interesting. I guess I can at least give it a try, right?

Well this last week is full of hanging out with people one last time, packing everything we need into our CRV, getting rid of all the !junk! life piles up and hitting the road. Will keep in touch!

It didn't sink in until last night (Thurs)...when Jesse said, "Matt & Amy are probably to St. Louis by now..." and my heart broke a little because we are going to miss you more than you know! I wish you the best on your journey... I need details because I am going to live vicariously through you both!

-Amy & Jesse- :o)
