So it's been awhile since I've updated. Figured I do something to that effect.
I thoroughly enjoyed my two weeks stay at home. It was great to see the family after a session of summer school. Alaska is as grand as ever, and I love being from there. I mean, the pictures I was able to take of just the views from my house were awesome. The dogs are good. Tucker is still a diva and Molly is still an idiot. Its trips like those that make me wonder if I could really work up there.
After the visit, I got to drive down through Canada in the new Honda CRV, so I have a car now! If anyone wants a reasonable ride, I will be happy to oblige. My ex-coworker/friend Tina and I made it down in three days from Anchorage to Redmond. We only stopped once for a hotel in Whitehorse, and from then on we switched on and off driving and sleeping. The drive is beautiful and I recommend it to anyone. Got to see the Northern Lights in the Yukon too. Nice green ones.
Now I'm back at school. Training for RAs is going well. I really enjoy my staff team, and we're having a blast. We actually made our supervisor cry yesterday twice...........from laughter. Sue Lombard is going to be amazing once they complete the work on it. I can't wait for school to get started.
