Football!!

Today, nachos and football. I think there's like three games. I probably will finish laundry and whatever else because I can't sit and watch 15 hours of football, but it makes interesting background noise.

Last night, we put Sebastian to bed at his normal bedtime. He was wearing his fullbody, zip up the front, footy jammies. He did not want to go to bed obviously because he was up there crying for hours. So finally, I went up to check on him and he was standing there bare assed! He's NEVER taken his clothes off himself. In fact, we've been trying to teach him to do it in preparation for potty training, but he just won't. Well, now we know he CAN! Little turkey!

I have got to find some way to exercise. Maybe I'll have to start running or something. I'm feeling very unhealthy right now and I don't like it. At least when the band was playing I was engaging in something that made me sweat for 4 hours at a time, 3 days a week. Ugh. I feel like poo poo. I know it's bad because today I tried to pick up Sebastian to put him on the potty and pulled something in my back and now I can hardly move. I'm turning into a big pile of mush and it sucks.

Anyway, back to football. Maybe I'll run to the grocery store to get the stuff for nachos. Maybe I'll just eat lettuce all day.

I'll let you know how that all works out.

I think I fixed the setting that was stopping people from commenting on the blog... Let me know if it's still a problem.

Life Update

Twinkle gets here tomorrow... We are very excited to see her as are Sage and Colt who seem to think that something's going to happen to her like what happened to Black Jack. They were so distraught when I told them that they cried and cried. Very hard loss.

I've been out on 4 interviews, a couple of very promising feeling ones today. Hoping a good one comes along soon, like Monday.

Our things still haven't arrived, although we were told they would be here this week and they took the money out of the account for it. Now they're saying maybe next week... I really would like to see our stuff. Especially the music gear - we need to get playing!

Tony and Tracy had their closing today, so went over and did a little housebreaking with them this evening. It's such a cute place, perfect for them!

Tomorrow we're going to go for a fall colors drive, then pick up Twinkie at the airport in the early evening. Our practice run at the airport for picking up Meme next weekend.

Other than that, not a whole lot going on. Have TV and internet finally, so we're not bored totally to tears, although things would be a lot better IF WE HAD OUR STUFF!

Pretty late now and Robby wants to get up for an early start tomorrow, so signing off for bed. I'll try to get some newer pics on soon. A lot easier to do now with super fast internet (well ANY internet!)

Good night,
Heather

Seabass at the Zoo!

A few days after we got here, we had to go check out the Denver zoo. Sebastian loved it. Here are the pictures from that day.

Internet YAY!

Got our internet on Tuesday, and after some gentle reminding from mom, I think I posted some new pictures.

Getting Settled In.

We got into Colorado Monday, and after unpacking at Mikey's house, we went and hung out with Tony and Tracy - I would say we caught up, but since Tracy and I text each other once every 2.5 seconds, there was pretty much just hanging out and wine drinking to be done. The moon that night was SO red from the smoke from the California fires.



The next day, we woke up and started househunting. We probably looked at about 9 houses or so, but as we were looking, a lady that I had emailed before we left Alaska emailed me and said that their house was still available if we wanted to take a look - so we headed over to it and checked out the back yard and immediately fell in love!

We called her back and set up a time to look at the inside and then continued driving all over the entire town - we put 150 miles on the truck that day.


Once we got into the house, we knew it was the one for us. It has everything - the perfect gardening yard, the perfect party yard, the perfect deck, the perfect fire pit, the perfect amount of rooms and three living spaces - a kitchen we can all fit in, the right number of bathrooms in the right locations, a place to brew our beer, right next to a school with a playground and a baseball field, a swimming pool a couple blocks away... The only thing the house doesn't have is the master bathroom that I wanted with the big garden tub, or the granite and stainless in the kitchen - but the yard... oh the yard...

So, we filled out an application and crossed our fingers since we don't have jobs yet. And amazingly after a couple of days and some negotiating, they said "YES"! I guess they liked us (or actually, it was probably Sebastian and Lamb that won them over).

Next weekend we get to move in - they even offered to loan us a couple pieces of furniture (like beds) until we get ours. They are such nice people.

I have an interview on Thursday with a legal placement firm, so hopefully a job is not far behind. Meme will be here soon, and I asked the movers to deliver our things sooner rather than later - it all is falling into place.

So today, since we didn't have to look at houses, we spent the morning job hunting and then took Sebastian to the zoo.

Just relaxing tonight after a FANTASTIC dinner at Red Lobster - my first time there. It was everything I hoped it would be and more. Then I got to drive home (my only driving experience except for going up the road right here by where we're staying to get my haircut).

Well, signing off now to post photos.
