Hurray, it's the last day

Today is the last day after 5.5 years for Ashley at Disneyland. It was her first job ever, and she began it right out of high school. While it was a better paying job than most, and the hours were plentiful during the many school breaks and overtime plentiful during the summers. It was a bit demanding during the school schedule as well for her, but it was her bulldog determination to accomplished them both well. She was able to make her private school tuition and so that is a great feat and she worked very hard. But it's only the happiest place on earth for those who visit it a day or two at a time, not for the employees as it's a tough crowd to work amongst. So I took a picture of her in her uniform as she embarked on the last day. This will give her the last semester of nursing school to be just about excelling and finishing well. Not having the distraction of work will be a great relief. She has made plans for post graduation and should be hearing shortly as to whether those are to be realized, with the Army nursing corps application currently under review and anticipated answer in mid January. More later when we know.

the pinning ceremony will be May 8, and graduation will be May 9th
