Long overdue Update

I think i emailed most about my move, but here is just a bit more. :-D

I found out in Late March that I had gotten the "TAO" Trainee Ambulance Officer position with the NSW Ambulance Service. So once i finally received the contract from them i handed in my resignation to Rural Ambulance Victoria (RAV). Yesterday was my final day working at RAV. I am sad in some ways to be leaving behind a good job and good friends, but at the same time very excited to be finally starting on the journey to become a fully qualified paramedic. YIPPEE.

I am spending this week finalizing things with the house and cleaning and packing for the move. I am having to put all my furniture into storage for 8 weeks+ while i am in Sydney training as i still don't know what training branch i am being posted to. YIPES.

My mum is coming up today (should be here in a hour or so actually) to help me with a few things and to also drive me back from my Oral Surgeon appointment. Double Yipes.... :-( Tomorrow i have to have one of my front teeth removed as it is "resorbing" and falling apart and has big holes in it. Not a nice thing to have happen. So it looks like i will be starting my new job with either a gappy smile or a plate... hee hee. No laughter permitted thank you very much. :-) So now i can sing once more that "all i want for Christmas is my ONE front tooth?" :-D.

Banjo will be heading off with mum when she heads home, so i know he is going to be upset with me. And then he will have to have another long journey up into some unknown town in NSW. He is pretty good with the 6+ hour journed to mum's but i could be living over 13 hours away this time.. I don't think he is going to like that journey. :-) His leg has healed very nicely and he only has a very slight limp now. Although when he decides that he wants to jump up on the window ledges and then down again is becomes more pronounced, but his spring is coming back and it is great to see.

If you are interested in checked out my new employer here is the web site link to ASNSW (Ambulance Service of New South Wales).

Well the packing is calling again. - I abandoned it in favour of updating my blog. :-) Priorities right? :-)
