We're baaack!

Okay, Kevin and I are finally settled back into regular-ish life again. He went back to work officially yesterday. So now he's the assistant to the group commander of the maintenance group. His hours should be pretty decent compared to working in the AMU. He thinks he'll be working from 8:00 till 6:00 which is much better than 6:00 till 6:00. I, on the other hand, am not working so I'm trying to motivate myself to do stuff around the house. So far it's proving harder than I thought.

Anyway, Kevin and I returned from California and we had a blast hanging out with our friends out there. I totally have a crush on California. I want to plan another trip out there already. When we got back I got sick so we didn't end up going to Clearwater to see my friend (very sad about that), but hopefully we'll get to see her another time soon. My mom and I are still scheduled to go on the 600-mile yard sale trip from Aug 6-10. She's coming to visit Aug 3. I'm looking forward to that trip. It should be a lot of fun.

Among other news, Kevin bought a motorcycle. Don't ask me what type. All I know is that it's blue and white and has two wheels and handlebars. He's very excited. We got our helmets in the mail the other day. I thought I'd rather be safe than not, so despite Florida's stupid no-helmet-required law, we're wearing helmets! Kevin takes his motorcycle class this weekend and after that he'll have his endorsement and he'll be able to ride around.

In other news, we will be dog-sitting for two weeks for Katie Bell and Little Ruby so hopefully they will wear out our Ruby and she'll stop giving in to her incredibly annoying urge to dig holes that I swear go all the way to China. She's been in a distructive mood lately.

Okay, that's the life of Kevin and Cameron right now. I'll post photos of our CA trip soon...ish.

so glad kevin is home and that you guys had a blast on your california vacation. i love that state! i'm so sad about your job. i have a lot of teacher friends, and it's just so hard right now. i hope you don't go too stir crazy. i know i struggle with that! so i don't want it to be weird, but i thought i'd just make sure, i assume that kevin said no to you guys taking eerwin? that's totally fine and we understand if that's the case. just thought i'd make sure. hope you don't go crazy with all the dog sitting. have you tried putting ruby's poop in the holes she digs? it's supposed to fix the digging problem. good luck! miss you guys!

I totally know what you mean about motivation. Some days I have actual things to do, but instead of doing them I lay around the house and complain about being bored... it doesn't even make sense to me!

Your 600-mile yard sale trip sounds amazing! You must post all the details!!!! I've started yard sale-ing here, inspired by you :)
