These aren't FL pics, but they're just before the move. Sand Diego and some other stuff.
We made it! It's been awhile, and there's a ton of stuff I can say in here. If I get long 'keyboarded' just read it anyways.
Me and Mike made the drive in 4 days. No events other than a few beggars trying to ask for our money (hahahaha). We made it with no problems though. Mike even gained 3 lbs. I was expecting him to have to crap all the time, and mess my car, but seems I got lucky.
The area we're in is pretty nice. Good calm, quiet family neighborhood. The house is decent, but it was a grungy ass place when we were handed the keys. The landlord seems like a decent guy, willing to fix it up a little for us, so we'll deal with it I guess. I was pretty P.O.d for awhile though, thinking of all the scrubbing this place needs. There's a good cake of DNA on the shower walls I'm sure. He's hiring a maid service cuz I seriously have better ways to humiliate myself other than to scrub that grime off his shower.
Bradyn is getting so damn smart! I taught him how to say 'They took our jobs!', only like they do on south park... 'de too dur djobs' (if you haven't seen it you wont get it.) It's freaking hilarious. Also, he likes to give 'taco flavored kisses'. When you ask for a regular kiss, he may or may not ignore you. If you ask for taco flavored kisses, he giggles and comes running for a kiss. Freaking hilarious. Brylee is trying to make sounds, but she's still pretty little.
Jeanann had an interview for an ER tech at the UF vet hospital. It sounds pretty good. She has a working interview on Friday. Hopefully she'll get it, if she likes it. It works fri-sun though. 7am to 9:30pm. It'll be nice cuz she can be with the kids most of the week, and we can avoid daycare. We both like daycare, since Bradyn learned so much and had so much fun in his... BUT, it's nice having the option not to pay if we can avoid the expense.
I've gone down to the community college. I swear, I better be done with community level garbage soon. I need to go down to UF to see why I've been denied 2 times. If I can take a few classes to get into a BS program there, I'll do it. If they tell me it's gonna take another year or more, I'll seriously be considering some tech school or certificate cuz I'd feel like I was wasting life time and brain power to spend any more time in a community college. I should be good though, we'll see what UF says tomorrow. I've applied to some jobs, but I'm holding out for VA Work Study. It pays crap, but it works around schooling. I just need to work out my school schedule first. Also, one of my goals of this relocation, is to get more involved with veterans, so taking a job working with the VA while going to school would be a good way to get started I think.
New phone number and address, if you need it, let us know. If we like you we'll tell you what it is. j/k

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Jeanann! They'd be lucky to have her :). Thanks for the update!
I'm glad you guys made it safely. We'll have to get out there and see the place! Florida is a fun place and the gramps condo rocks! When we get some money saved up for the next vacation we'll have to come that way!
