Home, Sweet Home

For the last few days, we have been working on getting packed to make the move down to Granite City. To those of you who don't know, we just bought a house and we are getting ready to close on it Monday, April 28th. We just bought all new appliances and we can't wait to use the new dishwasher. It is a brand new house that is a bi-level and the downstairs isn't even finished yet. But we have really big ideas for how we are going to finish it (it gives Jeremy a little project to work on since he only works 2-3 days a week;) For right now, you can see the St. Louis Arch out of the patio doors in the kitchen! Once we get moved down there and get a reliable internet connection I will post pictures. There are a coupl spare bedrooms so anyone is welcome to come and stay a weekend.

I finally said goodbye to my friends who are also known as my co-workers last Friday night. They all took me out to eat at a really cool place called Caite Girl's in downown Springfield. It was sad at the end of the night knowing that I would not be returning to work with them the following Tuesday. But I'm sure we will keep in touch and we will never forget the many good times...and the few not so good times there at White Oaks West Animal Hospital. Everyone is still invited to the wedding, of course and they better be there!

I start my new job this Tuesday and I am really nervous about it. I hate starting new jobs. Everyone tells me that I will be fine but it still doens't keep me from being scared. For those of you who don't know, I am starting a new job as a veterinary technician at Edwardsville Pet Hospital. The three-doctor practice is only ten minutes away from Granite and they do a lot of specialty surgeries. I actually can't wait to see them. I'm told they go out every Thurdays night to eat or for drinks and I'm sure I will make a lot of new friends.

After the house is moved in to and everything settles down, I will start on the wedding again. And thistime I am going to hit it hard. I can't believe the wedding is only seven months away! There is so much to do. Keep cheching back!


...by the way, our new address is going to be:

2216 Hunter's Point
Granite City. IL 62040
