Great Weekend

Saturday:
Congratulations to Sarah and Eric - proud homeowners!!! I got to spend some time with them Saturday getting things moved and organized in their new home. It is a great house in a beautiful neighborhood. (Same phone number if wish to call and congratulate!)

Sunday:
All the Bartons headed to the farm to celebrate Cori's birthday and of course, do some work. It was a beautiful day! (Just call Craig "The animal whisperer")

Spring fix

Random flower pics that I have taken over the past year or so...just needed a spring fix. This spring has been chilly and wet. I'm ready for some sunshine and warmth!

Remembering Mini 08

I came across some old pictures and found some of last year's mini marathon.

Eric and I got to start in the same corral last year (we are standing under the F.) I remember the weather being a little chilly at the start, but knew it was going to be warm enough to wear light clothing for the rest of the 13 miles as it warmed up. The sun came out half way through the morning and really made it sunny and hot. My goal last year was to beat my time from 2007. Craig also teased me that if I didn't get under 2 hours, he wasn't taking me home. Thank goodness I was 7 seconds under 2 hours! With no training this year, the goal is to finish and have a great time doing it!

This is the starting line for the wheelchairs. They get a 5 minute head-start.

Front of the line for the elites

Many people participate in the mini for different reasons. These firemen made quite a statement in their full gear. I am looking forward to this year's race in a couple of weeks!

Ellettsville/Bloomington visit

Quick update: Interview went well...It lasted an hour and half! My impression of the office is that it would be a GREAT place to work. Supposed to hear something in the next week or two.

This is us at a Starbucks in Bloomington. We aimlessly drove around for a while looking for "For Rent" signs and decided we weren't making much progress. We stopped and bought a couple newspapers for some listings. The one that was listed as a "cute yard" was a total dump. The only two that we are interested in we found by just driving around. It was the slow start of trying to find somewhere to live!

Good Friday

Yay for a day off! I have been able to enjoy the day by spending time with Craig! Too bad he has so much school work to do.

We finally broke down and decided to hire the work out on our house that we could do ourselves...if only we had the time. The same guy who worked on the walls is doing a lot of finishing work. He only worked 4 hours yesterday and got soooo much done! Hopefully I get the chance to post some pictures later. The goal is to get all the supplies ready tonight to install the living room floor tomorrow!

Some exciting news: I have an interview with a dental office near Bloomington!! I got a call yesterday and could barely contain my excitement. The doctor was very easy to talk with over the phone and was willing to accommodate my schedule for an interview! The information I obtained from their website makes this seem like a great opportunity and great office to work for. Please pray that I am a good match for this office.

More good news: Taxes are done....and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be!
