School's Out For The Summer! (well kinda)

So I, (Jeff), just finished a 19 unit semester. It may seem like bragging, because it is, but I'm pleased with my results. I should have 3 or 4 A's depending on some last minute stuff. The other 2 or 3 will be B's. I can live with a 3.5 gpa.

So, now I'm one semester closer to being done with Sierra College. It's a cool place, but not good for being there too long. I'm lucky to live so close to a good school though. It's about 5 minutes and it's not nearly as expensive as some schools.

This summer I'm signed up for 3 units but I may seek out another class. Still debating on how much I want to suffer. It's likely I'll stick with one class though.

Hooray Dimple!

So, I took my weekly trip to Dimple... my addiction is real. This time I was looking to enhance my Beatles collection. If you read anything I write on facebook or my other blog I've already mentioned this but I'm so excited. I got Sgt. Peppers! What a great album.

So anyways....

This winter Genna and I are headed to Disneyland with some great friends. I called the park today to ask about that time of year and get information on good deals. It looks like we're in fomr some crowded days. All the same I'm excited and anxious for the end of the year to come. This is in addition to our busy summer of fun. Life is rough huh? We're doing a lot to enjoy this time of life since it seems that life complicates itself the further we get into it. Next year will be a big one with Genna trying to get into law school and me trying to decide what I want to be when I grow up. (That's another post in itself.) So for now, Genna and I are loving life and trying to save money, get debt free, and have great times.

Exciting Summer Stuff

So we just packed our summer full of fun stuff!!! Time to share:

We are going to see Conan's live stage show.

We are going to see Ben Folds.

We are going to a Muse concert.

We've got tickets to a Giants game versus the Cubs.

We're going to see the A's play the White Sox.

We'll be camping in Yosemite.

San Francisco trip with friends is in the works.

Genna is going to see John Mayer. (Jeff... not a fan.)

Jeff is going to: Scout Camp, Deacon's Hike, Camping, and taking a Photo class!!!

We're excited and would love to hear what everyone else has planned. We did need to brag a little.

Summer is on the way!

So school is almost over for the Spring Semester for me. Genna, on the other hand, is on the way to more school soon. June will be LSAT time and then it will be a question of what comes next for both of us. I'm probably sticking around Sierra for another semester or three and then I'll try to transfer.

Life at home is good too. Well, life at someone else's home anyhow. We're at the year mark with Genna's parents and doing well. We've been fortunate to be here and have a chance to reset life. Right now we're all alone with the dogs for a few days. We tend to take turns being gone and leaving the dogs with the other couple in the home. It's worked out good. I wonder if the dogs will be depressed when we don't live together anymore. Maybe we'll just give Indy to Craig and Linda as a thank you gift.

Well, lots to look forward to. Conan show in a week. Camping this summer. Baseball games in the bay area.

Life for Us

So life is crazy. We're loving Gennas new job and my school scedule. We're also looking at a fun and exciting year.

I, (Jeff) am excited about the baseball season this year. Genna has agreed to go to games in SF and Oakland with me "as long as she gets some garlic fries." We're also preparing for Genna to take the LSAT, further proof that I married above my intelligence level. She's doing a great job studying and will be taking the test later this summer.

I hope that we can follow through with our plans. This could be a great 2010.

I'm blogging like crazy now!

Back for the family blog! We need to keep in touch but when we can't I hope to keep at this to make sure family and friends know what's new in my life.

Job Search

So Genna and I are hoping and praying for a few good opportunities to come our way. We are working hard on getting back out on our own.

This month I'll be on my way to San Diego as part of the testing process for the San Diego Police Department. I'm hoping that it goes well since they have given me a worst case time frame of January to begin their academy if I am selected.

Genna is supportive of my goal and I am also trying to help her. Once we can nail down a city to call home we can focus on getting her in a career. We're both lucky to have work but we also know what we desire for the future.

If all else fails we've decided to train Indy and do a dog show with a traveling circus. We can work as carnies... what a life.
