FYI- I'm a little late in posting that I got the job at Allied Waste, I started last week. Yes, I work at a landfill. Eewwww!! Not really. I'm in the office with other ladies in the air conditioning and it's not smelly. The occasional fly does sneak in, but that's about it. It's nice to be working again and learning all of the "lingo." A box, roll-off, pull-off, and dump truck were all greek to me, but now I'm catching on. This is my second week, wish me luck!!
My mom will be visiting us here in Oklahoma this Tuesday before Ed & I head out of town for the weekend. Ed and I leave this weekend to Colorado for a friends wedding. It's will be nice to enjoy cooler weather and the beautiful scenery. I'll post pictures of our trip there.

Job Possiblity
We've been living in Oklahoma going on two months now, and I haven't been working. Ed told me to take a break and I've really enjoyed my break so far, but now I think it's time for me to stop hanging around the house and bring in some extra money for our household. Since I have no little ones to take care of at the moment, it seems like the perfect time. I have had several job offers since I have been here, but they were not the pay I wanted. It's nice to pick and choose which job to take. :) The other day, I applied for a position at Ed's old company Allied Waste in their office. They called me back today for a second interview tomorrow. Everyone there seems to be very nice. I met them once before at Ed's Christmas party before we got married, but I don't remember any of them. We'll see how that works out. I have plenty of applications out at other places as well, so it's just a matter of who else calls me back.

Recent Events
Our trip to Texas was great! We enjoyed hanging out with friends and family. It was a bit of a shocker to get back to the hustle of getting around in Dallas. Remembering the 10 different ways to get to one place after being gone only one month! I don't miss that at all, though. I'll take the occasional grandma and grandpa here that take it a bit slow down the road or don't realize the light has turned green, verses the Dallas traffic any day.-lol Ed & I did enjoy a Chili's dessert "Chocolate Molten Lava" for our anniversary treat while there in Texas. It's our favorite dessert! (That's not the actual desserts name, we just can't ever remember it's real name, so if you go to Chili's you won't find "our" name for it on the menu.)
The Castle Muskogee, OKAfter our "Trip to Texas", Memorial Day, Ed & I enjoyed a day at the Renaissance Festival at the Castle in Muskogee, OK. Plenty of sword fights, fancy dresses/cleavage, huge Turkey Legs and Funnel Cakes for everyone. It was pretty hot and humid though, but neither one of us got too toasty from being out there. After attending they also gave us free tickets to the "Haunted Castle and Maze" for Halloween. Ed's been before and said it was really fun. I totally see how that would be scary and we look forward to going together.
