I will be working in Muscatine at a hospital as one of two dietitians. I was told that my main roles will be menu planning, working with the inpatient population, and the dietary component of the cardiac rehab program. I also heard that once I get more settled, I will be able to get involved in the community more with various projects and corporate wellness opportunities, since the area is saturated with large factories and many industrial companies.
If "Muscatine" looks familiar to you, that's because it's the same town Josh works in. Can you believe it?! It couldn't be more perfect.
To all my worries and fears from my last post-- what if I can't find a job in Iowa? What if signing that lease was a huge mistake? What if Josh and I can't live together when we get married because we'll always have jobs in different areas? What if I have to give up the dream??-- I get to say "See ya later!"
It just goes to show that prayer really and truly does make a difference. Now more than ever I believe that God is listening, and that He has a greater plan for me than I had for myself. I'm not sure what He has planned for me in Muscatine, or why I am meant to go there. I never, ever, in my wildest dreams believed that I would have a job with three months left of my internship, let alone be able to carpool with my sweetie to work everyday! I'm excited to see where this opportunity takes me.
In other news, I got to spend time with a bunch of friends and family in the past few weeks! I haven't been putting pictures up on here lately, so here is what you missed:
Allie turned one!

| And she can walk, talk, and wear skinny jeans! |
 |
| Luanne made this beautiful cake. |
 |
| She can ride motorcycles, while telling Papa John to keep his hands off her toys... |
 |
| And she's just so darn cute! I got to see my friends! |
