We made it

Last night was Jason's first night on call. He has been on a rotation for the last 2 weeks that didn't have a call schedule but that changed yesterday and he was lucky enough to get to be on call. The normal hours are from 6:30 am to 5:00 pm but when they are on call they have to be there until 9:00 or 10:00 pm.
We made it through the night and Jason made it through his. The kids did have a bit of a hard time understanding that they wouldn't get to see dad for a couple of days though. Dyson handled it well and Ridge was only sad about it for a minute but Rori spent a good portion of this morning being extremely upset that she hadn't seen daddy.
We managed to keep ourselves plenty busy yesterday and are going out for walk today so hopefully I can distract daddy's little girl until he returns this afternoon. Jas is supposed to follow the schedule of the resident that he is assigned to and his resident is on his Post Call schedule and is off at 1:00 so Jas is hoping to be done around 3:00. I'm not holding my breath though because they can always just assign him to a new resident.

We are slowly getting used to being in NJ and we get around OK as long as we have a working GPS. Without it we would be so lost all the time that I think I stay home. haha.

We are all adjusting to our new life and are excited about what the future holds for us. I am trying to stay positive about life here and it seems to be helping my attitude. Maybe there is hope for NJ after all.... maybe.
