Well, I am now about four months into my job and still enjoying it. Like anything in life, it has its "pros" and "cons," but nothing that is deal breaking. I really enjoy the work that I am doing and the flexibility I have with my schedule. It's my GDI home away from! As much as I miss working/seeing Scott and Nancy, and of course the entire GDI crew, I know this was the right decision to move here [Anchorage, AK]. It's been a wonderful adventure so far and I haven't thought about looking back yet. My friend said she didn't miss California until about 3 years later when she even thought about going back to visit because she wanted to, aside from obligatory visits with friends and family. We'll see how it goes for me.
Winter is approaching and I can hardly wait! This is the last weekend of the State Fair up in Palmer and I have opted out of going this year. It was a sacrifice I chose when I decided to get my own place. Next year, there is always next year. Besides, I am more interested in getting myself squared away on homework so that I will have a few weeks off school when hockey starts! Grace, you know how worthless I was after the clinic each day! No homework, or housework got done! I'm just lucky I clean up after myself on the regular, or else my flat would have been a disaster area!
I am still trying to transition into my new ward. Sunday our start time will change to 11 and that will make my life a lot easier. The buses don't run until much later on Sundays, so I won't have to depend on my bike (I don't plan on spending money on studded tires this winter), or having to ask for rides. I would rather get there on my own, so a later start time allows me more freedom and ease to get to and from church without having to depend on others. This also means I will have to finally buy myself a legitimate winter coat. I was able to borrow Jimi's last winter, but now it's time to spend the money and get my own. I don't want to freeze to death! LOL!
