Hi, I'm Beth. I'm a physical therapist!

Hi friends and fam - I've been wanting to start a blog for some time now and told myself I would wait until I had something exciting for a first post. Well, last night after 3 agonizing days of waiting, I found out that I passed my boards and I am a licensed physical therapist! I took my 4 hour exam this past Tuesday and apparently Ohio is a little slow reporting results...my friends in Pennsylvania found out the next day! Ah well, the price I pay for living in my lovely little house with amazing friends and family in Canton :) Anyways, I passed and will be starting work hopefully Monday or Tuesday! I got a job at a rehab/skilled nursing facility called the Arbors in Canton. I was referred there by our friend Daniel and I'm very excited to start working - be a little less bored - and pay the bills with a little more certainty :)

So I'm trying to decide how to spend my final weekend of unemployment...I have been previously bored out of my mind, spending way too much time on the internet. I started reading Wally Lamb's "She's Come Undone" and am really enjoying it so far (thanks Aimee) and will need to read quickly so I can get the next book club book! I've also been sewing a diaper bag for a friend that is turning out quite cute!!

Other fun news - Our mid-remodeled bathroom now has walls and a working bathtub!! (pics to come). Our previous bathroom had original 1924 tile on walls and floor and although that is some peoples style it is not mine. We also had only a tub - no shower, a door to the outside, and a window in the area where the shower would be. So with the help of our friend Brian, we now have the door and windows closed in and a new window on the other wall. I hope that the rest comes together quickly - especially the toilet. I am sick of running downstairs in the middle of the night to go!!

Well, I want to use this blog as an outlet for my thoughts and to fill you all in on what's going on with the Joneses (the title was really a no-brainer) :) Hope it is entertaining and helps fellow internet addicts fill a little time in between checking facebook. :) Much more to come!
