Update - Job and Life

ON THE JOB FRONT
So I actually didn't start my job until last Tuesday (July 7th). So far it's going really well. I really like the other women in the office. It's a bit overwhelming because I'm used to being the person that knows everything so not knowing anything is a little hard. But hey, I can't always know everything and I'm learning. :)

I'm super busy and have been thrown right into everything because my first event is in 3 weeks! One of the fundraisers I coordinate is a bike ride. It's a 2-day event that people ride either 20, 45, 75 or 100 miles each day. There is a good amount of stuff setup but there is still A LOT that needs to be organized and I have to learn a whole bunch of different things. Don't get me wrong - I'd rather be busy and learn by rapid fire than taking it slow. Then it just takes too long to learn everything.

ON LIFE
Shaun has been super busy at work. He's always so popular with the guests that he's always in demand. He complains about the hours but loves being so popular. :)

I am hoping to make it to Michigan next month but I'm having the hardest time finding a flight I can afford. I'm so bummed. I thought I had more airline miles than I do so that was a sad realization. I thought about driving but it's about 15 hours each way so I'd be driving for two days to only be there for 2 days. Oh well. I'm just hoping something works out.

Other than work, we haven't done much. We think we may have finally found a shade of green we like to paint the kitchen/living room area. Now we just need to get it painted. Don't be surprised if a year from now our walls still white. Hahahaha.
