I've been super busy with work and getting over some kind of sickness. I'm not sure what I have but it hasn't keep me from going to work (except I did go home early on Friday I could barely keep a convo going). I just finished training so I'm official "on the floor" I am very worried because I haven't had a application yet, but then again I've done the enrollment job before so I know it will take a while.
In other news, we got a chocolate lab and he is extremely difficult. He chews everything and when we took him to get discount vaccinations yesterday he acted a straight fool at Petsmart, jumping on people, braking, pulling his leash, nipping at me. The vet actually told us out of all the labs the chocolate ones are the worst. The plus is that a trainer at petsmart saw his whole episode and we went to talk with her and she said training would be best. I'm just glad she got to see him in action because when we were talking he just sat beside my husband like he was the best dog ever. I'm really hoping the training helps, because if it doesn't we won't be able to keep him because he jumps on people and other dogs, and there are a lot of dogs in our apartment complex...so wish me luck with that.
Another plus, Matt got a job!!! at Whole Foods!!! some people wouldn't be excited about working at whole foods but he gets a 20% discount...I told him he will have that job for a long time.
Also we decided to get a second car, of course I was the one who got the new car. It was a Mazda 3...Matt wanted a truck so we made a decision to get a truck later because it's more expensive (plus drinks gas like crazy and he just got his US license so he needs a little more experience with crazy US drivers).
Well that's about it for now. I promise to update more often, especially since I'm looking at a place to got for 2 weeks I have to take before June or I lose :) plus another 2 weeks I have to use before December. I'm really hoping to get out of the US for one of them..but if not maybe somewhere nice in the US.
