Sweet Home Alabama

November 18, 2005

I have to admit, Alabama is growing on me. It is really nice to be around family, you forget how nice that can be after 8 years away from home. Speaking of family, I had a nice visit with Adam and got to see Aunt Pam and Uncle John as well.

I went on a job interview today that I thought went really well. It’s working with kids, which I don’t have much experience with, but hopefully I’ll get the job. I really liked the woman I interviewed with and she was from Alexandria, so not being a local shouldn’t count against me. Keep your fingers crossed, I really want this one.

Setting up house is going well. I’ve stalled out somewhat because I have to get through a knitting project to start a cross-stitch I’m entirely too excited about. Cable is coming tomorrow, which also endlessly excites me. Life is full of small pleasures.

Elizabeth, Chris’s little sister, and I have been running around together having lots of fun. She has a five month old Shelby who keeps us laughing because she thinks she is a baby dinosaur. She growls as her primary means of communication. It’s hysterical. I’ll post some pictures once we have internet at our house up and running.
