First Night

It's finally here: our first night in our new house! So far we've moved out of the apartment and one storage unit. Tomorrow we'll empty out the second unit and then we'll finally have all our things in one place again. It's been over a year since we've had everything together so it should prove exciting to see what I have (or have not) been missing these past months. :)

I wish this post were longer but I'm EXHAUSTED and I must go to bed. Now if only I could find my sheets.....

In Case You're Wondering

We haven't closed on our house yet. Some extra papers had to be signed, delaying our closing by two weeks, but we're hoping and praying we will close this Wednesday or Thursday. We have to be out of our apartment by Saturday so regardless of our closing date, we're renting a moving truck and heading out.

Most everything else is the same around here. We do have George again. Since we expected to close so much sooner the lady he was staying with went on vacation so we had to go pick him up. We're sneaking him around the apartemnt, but he's doing well with it, and it should be over soon.

Anyhow, I know it's not much, but that's it for now.

Happy Sunday!

Coming out of hiding

I'm sorry I haven't updated in a while. It's been so hot outside I've been unable (or unwilling, whichever way you look at it) to sit poolside and connect to the interent.

Here is what's been going on around here:

*Our closing is still set for the 16th. There have been a few set backs and a lot of time spent on the phone tracking people down. We had a few days when we thought we'd lose the house due to our broker's lack of motivation, but hopefully that's all behind us.

*George is staying with one of my co-workers now, and I'm not sure I'll get him back. They love him. They have four other dogs at their house, but that doesn't seem to matter. He fits right in. Even the original plans of keeping him in his crate have fallen away and now he's roaming around when he wants to, and sleeping in their bed. Ahh....George- what a lovable guy. :)

*We put in our notice at the apartment, so we're starting the process of moving (again). Hopefully this move won't be too hard since we have two weeks to get everything out of the apartment and the storage unit.

*I'm working entirely at the vet now and it's wonderful. I work Monday- Thursday and I love my schedule. I'm still running a room for clinic on Wednesday and Thursdays, but now that I'm there more frequently I've been able to assist with surgeries again. Last week I was able to do a dental on a military dog for the first time. It was great, and I'm looking forward to learning new things.

*Dan was finally able to go try out the MMA gym he's been dying to go to. He really enjoyed it, so once we get settled in the house I think he'll start going regularly.

*Zelda is still her regular ol' crazy self. It's been a lot of fun having only her, but I think deep down even she is ready to see the other dogs again. Well.....maybe deep deep down.

*I'm sorry for any birthday's or anniversarys I have missed or forgotten. I've been very absent-minded lately with everything going on, and I hate to forget things like that!

Well that's it for now. Happy Friday, everyone!

And in case I don't get to post again- HAPPY 4th OF JULY!
