One Week Down....

....and about 40 ish more to go.

I survived my first week at my new job :)

I say 'survived,' but it really wasn't bad at all.  The hardest part is figuring out schedules and boundaries, oh and then the part where I have to train my body not to sleep in until 10:00am.  That part kinda bites.

I now work as a one-on-one aide at a Jr. High.  Never thought I'd willing go back to Jr. high.  The girl I work with was described to me as a 'diva' and has some interesting opinions.  She's awesome.  We'll see how long the 'Honeymoon' period lasts... The day goes by pretty quick, and I get to re-learn all of the stuff that was supposed to stick in my head back when I was an awkward eighth-grader.  I miss having a whole hour for lunch, now I only have a half hour, which is ok, I just don't have time to read :) Mostly I miss my lunch group from GPA. But so far, so good.

The commute takes a while, but once we move into our new apartment it will only take about five minutes.  So yeah, we found a place to live! We are just waiting for our unit to finish being re-modeled.  I'm completely alright with waiting a little longer for new carpet and whatever else the land-lord decides to replace :)  It's a two bedroom with a giant closet and a large kitchen; which I am super excited about. I'm really, really excited about not being on the hunt for apartments anymore. BLEH!

Steven's job is going well.  He was getting the hang of it nicely, but now that school has started it's changing and getting a bit more hectic.  I think he's keeping up rather well :) He had to go around to different schools and take pictures on the first day, so he came to my school and surprised me.  I only got to see him for a minute, but it was a welcome surprise on my first day :)

We eat out a lot more than usual 

(mostly nice people taking us to dinner);  I've enjoyed almost more curry and Leatherby's ice cream than my little heart could desire (almost!).  And we discovered the joy that is Zupas.  We've also spent a lot of time in Downtown Salt Lake.

That's pretty much the update on this end :)
