passed the one year mark //

well, I totally missed it - cause yeah, between my horse hurting her leg, us looking at houses up north and my husband off to Bootcamp for BCAS... yep, I forgot about the one year, but I'm only 4 days late! Haha!

last year when I started this blog we were sort of blindly going in. my husband was still working for transit but things were getting bad. he started his EMR (basic entry level paramedic course) and completed it mid August. By then he was off work and would never return, of course - we did not really know that at the time. he then enrolled in the PCP (Primary Care Paramedic - which it the next level and what most paramedic's are) program as he knew he may never have the chance in his life to do it again, and if he did go back to work - he could make this "one" course work around his work schedule. so we came up with $6,000 and he started that in November last year. we were cut off our benefits and we started the dumb fight with the insurance company and his work, which is still not resolved. he then finished PCP in April of this year. And since we were completely tapped dry, he applied for BC Ambulance and got in just a month ago. Money at this point is imperative to survival lol, and he got the station right where we wanted to move to!

but I do remember hub's saying one goal that he really wanted ... by August be a licensed PCP, well yesterday he found out he passed all the licensing and is now a Licensed PCP :D yay, hunies!! So basically one year later my hubby is finally what he always wanted to be! and i've never really seen him happier but i do think it's true - if you believe it, see it, want it - you can have it. I know we'll have everything we ever wanted very soon.

HAPPY ONE YEAR! I guess I'm not really an EMRwife anymore... haha PCPwife... I'll stick with EMR lol

thank you for those who read, i know we've had some crazy times but you know - what dosn't kill you makes you stronger!
