into the routine

I've been so bad at updating this. I fail! Aside from the A/C breaking down there hasn't been anything much exciting than that going on here to update about. Unfortunately Danny and I still haven't been able to explore town very much aside from driving past businesses on our runs to wal-mart. There's a park a few blocks away...but who wants to go on a bike ride when its 115 degrees outside?! Not us!! So for now our bikes and fishing poles will continue to gather dust..we've been told that this 110 degree weather will finally break in November..god I hope not! Maybe if I just keep telling myself that it will be nice and warm here when its -20 back in Iowa this winter it won't seem as bad?

I was offered the job at the veterinary clinic! Although its only part time right now which is kinda sucky, I LOVE it!! It's a lot of bitch work, cleaning cages, restocking supplies, ect, but I do also get to play with the cute puppies when I take them outside during the day. I also got to stand in on a surgery last week too! Probably one of the coolest but more gross surgeries I've seen (I don't really like doing stuff with eyes..) but it was so cool to be in there and observe. I've just got to work my butt off and try to absorb all I can from what the doctors are willing to teach. The vet techs say that they worked for about a year in my position before the vet moved them up to tech, so I'm hoping that by working super hard that I'll get there in under a year. I do have a degree after all...either way its great experience for my resume!

Danny had his first grad school orientation today. He's pretty nervous about it all, but excited too. He's going to be such a great teaching assistant :) He starts classes on the 26th so he'll find out today what his schedule will look like and what days he'll be at the university. I'm hoping maybe our schedules will line up so he has days off when I have days off too. It's kinda lonely being here by myself instead of having breakfast together and watching tv or playing video games together. Married life has been simply wonderful <3 I love waking up next to him, going to sleep next to him, making dinner together (and he even does the dishes! what more could you want?! hehe) it's been better than I ever would have thought :) The only down side...I'm still sick :( Been sick for over 2 weeks now...its getting old...and frustrating. *sigh* and we still have no health insurance. Not until September anyway. I sound like I'm coughing up everything inside of me..ugh! 2 weeks is long enough! I want to be better now darn it!!!

I suppose I better go and be productive..there's one last box of picture frames that I have left to unpack. Maybe I should do that today :) We are still waiting to order prints from the wedding to put in the picture frames we got from the wedding..so we just have a bunch of empty picture frames sitting around. LAME! I'll just have to use some of the ones packed away that have old pictures in them already until then :)

Love,
Mrs. Goodding <3
