A list of updates

:: Our move was surprisingly smooth. We were miraculously able to pack up our entire house (including the composter) and after a quick stop at Target (because somebody {me} accidentally packed all of Z-cakes' DVDs making her portable DVD player virtually useless) we were on the road. We made it to Green River, WY the first night and rolled into town around 2:00 the second day.

:: We still don't have anywhere to live. We are currently staying with my parents. Z-cakes is loving being spoiled by her grandparents.

:: N8tr0n is commuting to work (To work! As in, he has a job!). He is excited to find somewhere to live in the actual town he is working it.

:: My irrational fear of N8tr0n going to his first day of work only to find that he did NOT have a job was fortunately just that--an irrational fear. I am happy to say that we did not accidentally move to Idaho without having a job.

:: I spend the day checking Craigslist and the newspaper for apartments/duplexes/houses that have three bedrooms, a private fenced backyard, and allow pets.

:: I have been really itching to sew lately. I suspect this is because my sewing machine is boxed up in the dark depths of a storage unit.

:: All of our stuff is in a storage unit.

:: My two best friends both had their babies after I left. One the same night that I left and the other two days later. I do not think this is one bit fair.

:: I have been really itching to do some paper crafting lately. I suspect this is because my paper crafts are boxed up in the dark depths of a storage unit.

:: Z-cakes has been watching a lot of Curious George lately. She prefers the one about the birthday with the pinata.

:: Was there anything else I was supposed to give you an update about?

:: I will be spending most of the day finishing up reports for my old job, updating my Ravelry, and answering questions on formspring (read: I will be online all day). Enjoy your Thursday!

Hey lady, I did the best I could to get him out before you left!

Do you know what would be great? If while you were updating your Ravelry, you took a picture of Z in the dress I knit, so that I can update MY Ravelry!

I don't think it's one bit fair either! I know Rachel and Jack and Ella and I are both missing you!! I'm glad things are settling in nicely.
BTW, I hope to see a pair of those adorable booties in the mail soon! :)

I hope you find a home soon so you can get to your sewing machine and other crafting supplies! Good luck with that.

Oh, how I wish we were in your shoes; a new job and looking for a house. Maybe we'll get there in 10 years.

Hello, love! Anticipating seeing you in the near future because, well, I know where you live...for now. :) How exciting for you. Also, if you are wondering about houses in Brad and Heather's new neighborhood, I can give you Heather's number--if you recall she is also a SLP, so she may have some hookups for you there. :) HUGS!

I miss you. I'm glad Nate really has a job though. ;) Haven't seen Jack in person, but Ella is to die for. I visited her once for you. ;)

Did I mention I miss you? *sigh*

You make me smile! Glad you are getting somewhat settled and that you didn't move without an actual job. Hah! Loved that one!
