Move to Bismarck

    Anyone can agree that moving has its own combination of petty struggles and simple joys.  For example when you finally win hide-and-seak against your favorite pair of socks and can’t help but snapchat it to everyone; or when the bottom of a box decides to bust open half way up three flights of stairs and still you snapchat it to all your friends.  Contrary to my lack of snapchats, I did move to Bismarck a few weeks ago and to complain would be nothing less than irrational!
​     Classes have started and they are not what I expected in the least.  It’s as if I was expecting to be served little educational horderves, but when I arrived I realized it was actually an entire feast of information that needed to be eaten in half the time I would have prefered.  Does that make sense?  I guess what I’m trying to say is that there is a ton of content in such a small amount of time that I feel a little overwhelmed, but word on the street is that’s just how it goes in Paramedic school.
     I started working the night shift at a facility for humans who struggle to live on their own.  Although I have a lot to learn about working in such an environment as that, the experience has been delightful so far.  The schedule has been an adjustment for sure!  Anyone who knows me knows that I am an early to bed early to rise type of gal, but I’d say I’m adapting the best I can.
     I have to thank the Lord for all He has provided as far as availability to worship and serve Him here in the community.  It is a blessing to be so overwhelmed with school, work, and moving further from home, but at the same time have unquestionable peace that can only come from Jesus.  I am continually reminded by the news and social media that there is so much going wrong here in North Dakota and around the globe, but the same Jesus who brought peace to my tiny life brings peace to the whole world too!
     I don’t have too much else to share for right now, but I want to thank you for visiting Casual Leigh and reading this post!  Take it easy out there friends, and call me anytime!
