Time Flies

Whew! Half a year has slipped away from me as my husband and I are growing accustomed to the Pacific Northwest. Figured it was time to blog again.

Lots has happened. Still at my newspaper job. Don't ride the bus anymore, 3 hours and 3 transfers are too much! I work 4 days a week to make up for not riding the bus. My car was broken into once and the tires stolen off of it. We moved to a new apartment shortly after. One of my good friends left on his deployment with the Navy, won't get to see him again until October but his wife is moving out here next week. It'll be great having another Nebraskan out here.

My in-laws came to visit in the beginning of June. My husband and I tripled our knowledge of Seattle and the surrounding area showing them around. We had no idea where to take them, but they came prepared with places they wanted to see.

I found a wonderful church and have started to go to the small group study for young adults to meet more people my age. Ummm....

I got to go to my first dog show since moving out here. I wasn't competing because I don't have a dog out here, but it was still nice to go. A couple people I knew were there and I got to make a few new contacts. It was strange going to a dog show and not knowing anyone. It was one of the largest shows I've ever been to, about 2500 dogs. I plan on heading home in October for the Samoyed National. It's in Kansas and hardly ever in the Midwest, so I figured I should go because Mom will be able to go too. I can't wait to get a dog out here and start showing 'em.

My husband has decided to change careers and he is aiming to be a Washington State Patrolman. It's exciting and scary at the same time but I support him. Don't like the idea of him being shot at but I would rather he be happy at his job. He goes for testing in September.

That covers the big stuff, I think. Oh, the kitties got fleas :(
