Headed to Idaho

So a lot of stuff has been happening this week. At work on Tuesday we had employee evaluations and I had a good chat with one of the therapists, then after that my supervisor let me know that my position was being eliminated and that my last day would be Friday. It came as a huge shock, mostly because they had not said any thing about closing down the home I worked in. So after processing for a couple of minutes I had to go back and work with the kids and not let them know anything. The kids didn't even find out until yesterday what was going on. I had a hard time at first, I have only been laid off once before in my entire life, so this was hard for me.
After talking to my parents, and praying a lot, I decided that my best bet would be to move home and see where life takes me from there. So on next Friday, March 13, I will be moving back to Idaho. I am actually really excited to move back home, mostly because I really am not that fond of Utah. The things that I will miss the most are the new friends that I have made and my institute class. I was a class representative and so it is really hard to just have to walk away from it, but hopefully I will be able to get enrolled in a class back home.
So now for the good news. I have a job, for the summer at least. I called up my old boss out at the Bar J and they said that I had a job waiting for me starting Memorial Day weekend. I am super excited for this, I loved working out at the Bar J, and the person who caused most of the drama last year will not be coming back this year. In fact, I will be living in her spot at the camp site. Dad and I get to fix up my grandparent's old trailer from the 70s and that will be my home from May till October. I don't mind living in such a small space, I handled it fairly well last year and I am excited to see how the summer goes.

This is me and my favorite person at the Bar J,
Donny!

Plus, I get to be home when Dylan gets home from his mission. His release date is May 15, so we will have about a week together and then I take off. Luckily Jackson is only about an hour and a half from home, so I will get to go home quite a bit and visit everyone.
I am also applying for grad school at Idaho State University. They have the exact same program as the one I was looking at at Boise State and it is about $2000 cheaper than if I went to Boise. So cross your fingers and pray that I get accepted.
All in all I am actually really happy to be going home. I didn't even cry at my last night working with the girls last night. I will really miss some of them, but for the most part, I will be glad going back to working with adults and not having to baby sit people with extreme issues. So wish me luck on my last week in Utah, and I will be seeing all of my Idaho friends again in about a week!
