Home Sweet Homewood Suites!








(Top three pics are a few of our new problems. Bottom three was our Homewood Suite)

We are officially back into our apartment as of last Thursday. So, we stayed at the Homewood Suites from April 15 'till May 20th. No, it was not like being on vacation for a month; it was more like,"Would you mind putting most of your life on hold for a bit? Thanks." Yes, the apartment management paid for the hotel, and breakfast/ dinner was provided to us most nights as well.

We are very happy to be back home, unfortunately we came home to an apartment that was not renovated well at all. So, the apartment issues will continue for a while longer until the maintenance guy fixes what the contractor "fixed."

ON TO HAPPY NEWS!

Sarah got a new job! The pay is better, shorter commute, close to zero phone calls, interesting work, nice co-workers, a boss that respects her and an excuse to buy new fancy clothes. What more could you ask for? She is now a Senior Consultant for an executive search firm. So far, she loves this new job. Thank you Carrie M. for the hook-up! :)

I finished my last full semester at American River College; I got four A's and one B! Now I have to take three classes this summer, and then I will be FINISHED! I will be taking a Photoshop class (again), an Illustrator class, and a sociology class. Unfortunately, the graduation ceremony isn't until May. So we will just have some parties with friends and families this summer, and then do the ceremony thing later. Big thanks to Nate Romo for his hours of help on my Adobe Flash projects this last semester. You rock, Nate!

Some final random things:

We loved the LOST finale; we thought it could have been better, but it was very satisfying.
We have started to watch 24 on Netflix. I think we are the last people on earth who haven't watched it yet.
We started drinking decaf coffee at night from home; it's a great way to end the day.
The kitties are doing great. Mojo and Steve play and fight with each other on a daily basis.
