We made our official move to the 406 on April 2nd and then I dropped M off at the airport on April 6th. So I spent most of April unpacking boxes and getting services established. When M came home in May, we unpacked more boxes and organized more rooms and hung some pictures. We also managed to wing our way to Lost Wages for a couple days to celebrate our 10yr wedding Anniversary a little early, since M would be on his AK rotation for all three of our June/July celebrations until his return on July 7th. (His bday, our Anniv. and my bday). That was a nice little get away for us that didn't have anything to do with selling/packing/moving a house.
Included in June was Daddy-O's 70th bday... in which we celebrated that with throwing him a surprise party. Good news...we pulled it off! He had no idea.
We
had quite a busy last half of July. My
parents came over with GJAB and my Aunt and Uncle followed them over. We showed them some of Montana that even I hadn’t
seen yet. It was a lot of fun. Then Mark talked me into going camping with
his sisters and their husbands. They are
really into Gold Panning and stuff…but I just enjoyed the sun and
relaxing. We took the dogs with us as
well. I was really nervous about doing
that since we were going to be staying in a fifth wheel with one sister-in-law
and her hubby and the whole sleeping situation.
But Maggie and Stella were really good and we didn’t have any problems
with them or the two other dogs there either. Once we got home (7/28) the girls crashed from having so much free room to roam for three days. We made it back in time for my friend JAZ and her
two boys to come stay with us for a few days.
Grayson really wanted to
love on Stella, but she wasn’t quite sure about him. I felt a little bad because we don’t really
have a fun yard that we could’ve sent them out to play in. However, I was told they had fun anyway. To continue with the Roberts’ B&B
reservations, we had the Oregon Hoffman's here for one night
while our two nieces and their families from Oregon blew into town and needed a place to crash for
one night until their vacation rental house was ready. When all was said and done, we only had two
nights alone before I sent M back up to Alaska on Sunday August 3rd
Then
I hit the job hunting pavement again.
The good news there is I have had five interviews in the last three
weeks. Three of them would be state
and/or city jobs. One was here in Hamilton
and the rest were in Missoula. I feel I've had some really good interview last Friday and Monday. One was for the Dept. of Public Health and
Human Services, then Missoula Correctional Services. At least I am getting some great interviewing
experience, which I really needed. The
one I am most excited about though? I
had a phone interview for an administrative aide at the University of Montana
Football Athletic Dept.!!!!!! Today I got a call inviting me to come for an
on-campus interview, to meet the coach and do a walk thru of the campus. Eeeeeekkkkkkk!!!! (Insert clapping hands here). All the most recent interviews indicated that
they would be making a decision soon, possibly by end of this week or early
next.
OK…that’s about all the
scoop I have for ya! |
