old books, financial aid, and a bottle of wine

As things begin to slow down a bit after the holidays, I'm beginning to realize how quickly time goes by! I started this blog with the intention of having it fully furnished with pictures and an update on life...before the end of the year. As you can see, it is now the 10th of January and i don't have much accomplished. But anyway... life goes on.

Last week Scott and two of his buddies made a trip to southern California for an interview he had at Loma Linda University, all the while taking advantage of a night at Joshua Tree NP and a couple visits to In 'n Out Burger. We now wait for a letter to come...

So in the meantime, Scott and i are starting to look into Financial Aid for a spendy 3 yr Doctorate Program. Thoughts of finding a new job, a new church, new relationships, and new places to shop often fill my mind along with how nice it will be to have warmer weather year round and beaches only an hour away... ahhh.. it's all very exciting. But we wait...

This weekend we decided we might as well start going through our stuff to begin the packing process... just in case :) So we're going to start with our bins of old books. We also makes lists of potential things we want to sell if we move, and things we want to look for in an apartment... hhmmmm....

But, of course, life still goes on here, and we aren't sure where we'll be in 6 months... so we'll step away from dreaming for awhile, and probably enjoy a nice dinner by our fire and a nice bottle of wine... a typical weekend evening for us...

If only I were half as organized as you... maybe I wouldn't still have boxes of who-knows-what sitting in my closet from when I moved 5 months ago! (I think they are just going to get dropped off at goodwill soon)
