A Wee Little Update...

Now, a little about what's going on in the Gossmeyer's lives..



Carson and I are getting excited for the Fall season, as we both love this time of the year.. but I might be equally excited for the Winter season and all that comes with that as well! (A certain trip to MD may be in mind... :))

Other than being sick off and on, I've been doing great!
Let's start with school... As of right now I have only one more week of our "essentials", (the first 11 weeks of actual classroom time). Next week we are learning to do the nail painting procedures and all that goes with that! The following week (week of Oct. 17th), my class will be testing. These tests are all practicals, where we actually do the procedures. The testing will determine if we are ready to go to "the floor" or not. If we are, which I better be!, then we will begin to perform services on clients!! I'm very excited and ready to get out there! :)

I've made some incredible friends as well. I was tested when we first moved here, and failed miserably. I wanted to believe that I wouldn't make any friends and that anyone that was nice to me "had" to because they were Carson's friend. That is totally not it at all. These girls are real. I've found that I'm able to be myself around them, and know that they truly do care. We're all in or around the same season as life (young and married) and are able to relate to one another in ways I've never had before. The other night, even though Carson was working, I went to a cookout with a mixed group of Carson's (and now mine:)) friends. It was so refreshing to get to hang out!

And speaking of friends... In one week from today I will be in VA with my best friend since 4th grade, spending time with her for the last night of her unmarried life :) Though I'm flying by myself (Carson isn't able to go) it is SO worth it!! Tabby has been an incredible friend throughout these several years.. She's the one person that when we are around each other, we pick up right where we left off last time. I love her so much and am so so so excited for her and Lee!
Not to mention, I'll get to spend some time with my amazing family as well that weekend! YAY!

Enough about me... Carson has a new job! Two nights ago was his last night at Sears. He now, with the same hours and same pay, is working less than a minute away from home at Subway! There were several reasons for his switch, but one of the main reasons is: he will have Sunday and Monday always off!! (for those that don't know or don't remember, my days off from school are these days) A couple Sunday's ago, we were able to (for the first time since the summer, I believe) spend the entire day together. I am definately looking forward to spending these days with him each week :)

Until next time.... Adios!

P.S. Don't worry... I'm giving Carson a haircut.... SOON! :)
