oops!

What am I doing?!?!?! I have looked at my blog a hundred times over the last two weeks and not once did I actually write something!? Sorry!

In my defense, we have been busy, but not doing too much worth writing about.  I have moved up to working almost fulltime at the chocolate shop and Ryan is traveling for work as I write.  This week he is in Virginia--which is a new experience for him for a few reasons.  First of all, they have an opening at the plant he in visiting so he is scoping out all the good areas around Richmond and Williamsburg and getting a feel for the people he would be working with if he got relocated there.  We still do not know where we are going, but if he likes this place and they find it a good fit, we could end up there.  We are not getting our hopes up too much, but I am starting to get pretty anxious to find out where we are moving!
Second, Ryan has been traveling to the South since he started this job and, while he got to see some cool things (Mardi Gras, Hot Springs) he has confirmed that this is a region we are not dying to move to anytime soon.  He has never traveled out East like my family so he is getting a lot of enjoyment out of this trip.  He flew into Baltimore early on Saturday and spent the day with friends from the football team.  Then he spent yesterday with my cousin watching some hockey.  He is getting quite the vacation out of this trip! 

I am working more hours as I mentioned and still training for the half marathon.  I am running in a 10k this weekend to prepare a little more (and to get out of the house!) The weather has been yucky for a few days so I am hoping to be able to enjoy the weekend outside.  We only have a limited amount of weekends left here so we are trying to cross things off our list of things to do before we leave!

Something I didn't get to blog about was our last visitor! Grampa Bill came for a visit and made my homesickness go away for a whole weekend! He needed to get out of the house and I needed a taste of home so it worked out very well.  We went out to a new restaurant Ryan and I had wanted to try, took Grampa to a war museum, and I made my first holiday dinner for Easter.  It was very relaxing and so nice to have our first family visitor. 

Other than ALL THAT...we have not been doing anything! We got rid of our cable and internet (I am using a neightbors wireless--thanks random neighbor) and hope to get outside more to just enjoy our time here.  I promise to write again soon to tell you all about Ryan's trip (and if we find out a new location!)
