We are moving!

We are so excited, we found a place to move to. A much BIGGER place then where we are now. Today we are giving our current landlord our 30 day notice and the other place is already being held for us! The new place is about 3 miles away from here and outside of the main Twin Falls area. We even have a small (OK very small) patch of grass to our own out back. We will have two bedrooms, a much roomier bathroom (for those of you who have been here, you know how ridiculously small our bathroom is), and a place for a washer and dryer-which I am so excited about. No more packing up dirty clothes and driving them somewhere just to get them clean!! Right now the plan is to move around Thanksgiving or the first of December.



On another note, we are both doing pretty good. Mike is putting in for a different position at Coke. It is the route supervisor. He would be working more hours and would be on call on some weekends. He would run the routes of people who are sick or on vacation. He would also be training new employees. And, he would get a company pickup and a big pay raise. He is anxiously awaiting for the announcement of who got it.



As for me, school is going ok. I'm ready for this semester to be over although I am not looking forward to finals. I will be talking to me advisor soon to get my classes scheduled for next semester. Hopefully, if everything works out just right, I will be graduating from CSI next December!!



That is the good news, as for the other news-I have to have a lot of dental work that needs to be done. I have issues with going to the dentist (bad childhood experiences) and because of that I have not gone to the dentist for a while. Even if I can tell I have a cavity or something, I still refuse to go. Well it got really bad, where I can barley chew food and so I decided I better get in and have them looked at. I went to one dentist and he did an evaluation and because there is so much work to be done and because I am apprehensive about dental work, he recommended that I do I.V. sedation dentistry. So I went to a different dentist who is qualified to do that kind of work. He also did an evaluation and said that I have to have two root canals, about 7-10 cavities to be filled, and a crown needs to be replaced. Ya, I know lots of work. (For all you kids reading this, listen to your parents and make sure you brush and floss everyday!!) So this appointment is scheduled for Tuesday the 18th. My mom will be with me, because I will not be able to drive afterwards. I will be on some pain meds for a bit and really wont be able to do much the next day so Mike said he would stay with me.

The weather is getting colder and up in Ketchum (where Mike's route is) it has already snowed. If he gets this new position it would mean he would not have to drive to Ketchum everyday which would be so nice. There have been a lot of accidents on that road and I know he is a very good driver, but you just don't know what the other drivers on the road will do. Anyways, I better get going and get to class.
