Well, a bigger city that is. Yes, our very few followers, we have moved. And yes, we are attempting yet again to update this blog. Apparently we're uber busy.
Let's sum up the recent events, we were still facing unemployment and dealing with everyday life and our volunteer efforts like Relay For Life. We had our Relay on July 9th and 10th, and I have to say that Nerds For A Cure kicked butt! We raised over $5,000 overall and over $1,000 at Relay alone! We ended up a Team Trailblazer (one of only three teams) and we were the overall #10 team! Way to go Nerds! After Relay we decided to take a nice relaxing camping trip for my upcoming birthday. The day before the camping trip, TJ had a job interview down in Orange County. We were thinking, "Wow, this would be quite a move, but it's nice down here!" I remember telling TJ that maybe this was the job, that the others weren't right and this was the "one." While we were fishing Rock Creek on Saturday, he got the call. He got the job!
So we were left the task of moving within a week and half, and on Monday the 18th (my actual birthday) we checked out nine apartments and found the perfect one. We spent the next week coming down to the OC for paperwork and packing our townhouse at home. It was a hasty move, but it got done and we're now OC residents! And we have even more good news! Our first full day here was Thursday and guess who got a job interview that very same day? Me! It's looking like I have a good shot at it, and we should know by Monday!
Now you may be wondering, what about the kids? Well, we are eight miles from Disneyland, six miles from the beach, and have tons of fun things to do all around us, what do you think? Needless to say, they are happy, which makes this so much easier on TJ and I.
So far we are loving life down here, we love the marine layer, the close proximity to everything, and a little store a few miles away that I like to call IKEA. Look to us in the future as we yet try and keep this darn thing updated!
