Jobs, Driving and other Adventures

Things are working out well enough here in Minnesota for us. I have a job working at a local bank, and Tim is in the process of getting a job at a retail chain store that doesn't deal with books.

I'm really enjoying my job, which is something I'm really happy to be able to say. I work roughly 20 hours a week, and I really love it. I have some cool coworkers and I'm starting to have my own social life and social circle. This is a wonderfully good thing for me.

This week was fun for us, as we have been working harder at figuring out our lives. Tim got his learner's permit this week, so yesterday I took him out driving for the first time. I drove to an empty parking lot and parked the car, then moved to the passenger seat. I let Tim basically drive around in circles for about 20 minutes, which was all I decided he needed to just dip his feet in the pool.

In a few weeks we are flying into Grand Rapids for a wedding (which we are pretty excited about) and to have some R&R, which I think we really need. Not too much else is going on with us, as we've been trying so hard to get our lives in order. Also, hanging out with family is good too.

Will update again in a few days/weeks.
