I know this post is overdue! Things are good here, Ryan is busy with his training, and I try to stay busy doing whatever I can! I am still searching for a job, but there are three that I applied to that I really want to get, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. One is for an assistant position in the high school media center, and the other two are office assistant positions at two different county offices. I really hope one of them comes through, the hours and benefits would be perfect!

Ryan is working very hard at his training. Almost every night he has a quiz to study for, and yesterday he had to do a presentation too. I try to help him study by quizzing him from his notes, but it doesn't always work out...Next week he has a midterm that will be very intensive, so I'll just try to stay out of his way when he's studying!

We have met some really nice people who are also here for Federated. Last Friday night we got together with three other couples for dinner, and then played a very heated game of Cranium. It was really fun, and we're all getting together again tonight. I'm supposed to make an appetizer to take over there, and I can't decide what to do. Any ideas?

Oh, and I just want to note that the Coke up here is not very good at all! It's very disappointing, especially for a Coke enthusiast like me. I really miss Willy's, La Parilla, Chik Fil-a...the list goes on. There is just not much up here at all. I guess the Atlanta area has really spoiled me...

Anyway, we miss everyone very much! I can't believe Christmas is next month already!
