finally.

wow! it's august 25th already? i can't believe how fast time flies. i've been home from florida for almost two months and i finally have a possible job. today both employers (home depot and amcore) that i had interviews with already called me to set up second interviews. i have one tomorrow at six in the evening and one on friday morning at 11. sooooo pumped. i pray for the the bank one, but i guess home depot would at least be a pay check till i found something else.

this summer is been great. again, i can't believe it's almost over. the beginning of the summer josh and i were still in florida. he had lots of studying to do for his medical board exams so i took that time to try to pack and do some last minute things. we left bradenton on the 26th of june and drove straight through the night, only stopping for a couple hours worth of sleep somewhere just outside of macon, georgia. after lots of coffee and some mcdonald's breakfast we were off again. i really love road trips, but when they are rushed like the last couple trips we've taken to illinois and back, they are just plain annoying.

but we made it home late on the 27th of june and we've taken advantage of as much as we could. taste of chicago, gino's east pizzeria, family parties, my family's pool, friend's houses and cabins. overall i'd say successful. :)

i'm looking forward to autumn. i haven't really felt that type of relaxing cool weather in a few years. (and at least josh, petey and i will have a gradual change into the dreadful winter!) i hope to go to the richardson cornmaze soon. such an awesome place and for anyone who doesn't know anything about it - click here! and if you're anywhere in the area i highly recommend it! so much fun for all ages (and, no, i'm not just saying that because i used to work/practically live there. it's tons of fun!)

if anyone would like to get together please let me know! i haven't had a chance to see everyone yet but would love to set something up.

hope everyone enjoys that last bit of summer!

Great to hear an update from you. So is Josh officially done with school or is he just finishing up somewhere in IL? I'm so glad you can be back in this soon-to-be fall weather, spending time with friends and family. I would love to meet up for dinner in the city over the next month or so.

josh is done with his classroom part of med. school. that's what the two years in florida was for. now for his last two years of actual med. school, before he graduates, he does his rotations. every month he follows a different doctor around so he gets exposure in different fields. (this month he is doing ob/gyn and i think he's going to help deliver a baby today! how exciting!) in 2011 he will have the dr. title - after that he'll have 3-5 more years of residency. ug! it never ends. haha!

(sorry for the long-winded explination. not sure how much you knew.)

but, dinner in the city sounds wonderful! once i find out what's going on with these possible jobs, i'll be able to put something in writing. i'll keep you updated! :)
