Time Flies...

...When you're having fun!!

Adam and I have been busy enjoying our summer.  Our 4th of July camping trip went really good.  We had some rainy weather, but nothing that hindered our ability to play cards under the tent.
Our dining tent

mmm breakfast

Adam chopped wood like a pro.

Jordan and Bruiser enjoyed it as well.  Unfortunately, they were the only downfall-we couldn't leave them alone, so it was difficult for us to do things together where dogs weren't allowed-like the spring.  Which is a constant 72 degrees. After the initial shock to your system it's quite nice...took Adam two days to get in. :)

Manatee Springs

I Jumped right in....

Took adam unitl day two!



Adam and Jordan in Cedar Key on the 4th of July.

All in all though-we'd like to go back with a group of friends and try again! I survived.

Last weekend we spent some time with my old friend Jared who is down from Boston for cancer treatments.  I know, sad reason for a visit, but hopefully  it will kick it's butt and he'll be as good as new.  Anyway, before he began treatments we loaded up and drove 2.5 hours North to Ginney Springs to float down the river.

It rained.

Hard.




So we got out and waited.....



Got back in....and it rained again-so we floated down the river anyway.

Then the sun came out.



Then.... it rained some more.



It was definitely a day to remember and despite the fact that we were soaked, we had a blast.

Our work has been interesting. 

Adam's not getting paid.
I'm getting all sorts of tid bit jobs to work on, but nothing big or exciting to say the least.

Adam got offered a new job.
I got offered a teaching position.

So our life is going to get even more chaotic.

Adam's new job is kind of a experiment.  He'll be working towards a management position that will put him in the position to be relocated-YA! and make a lot more money-double Ya!
However, it's commission based sales....6 days a week....from noon to 7.
He gets off Wednesdays. 
He also wants to try and stay on, in the mornings, at his current location-you know the one that can't afford to pay their employees.  And he's still playing Frisbee Tue/Thur nights until 11:00 p.m.

My new position is at a dance studio in Lutz (north of Tampa) one night a week (Monday's) 3 ballet classes.
I'm excited to get back into shape and back in the studio.  More so excited to work at a new studio and with new students.  I start on August 9th!

So let's do the math....Adam works Thurs-Tues. I work M-F
Adam is gone Tues/Thurs nights. I'm gone Monday nights.  Not a lot of together time...but we need to do this now, when opportunities arise.  Hopefully after 4 months Adam will work up to Manager and it will all be worth it.  God has a plan, we're just along for the ride...guess this is the bumpy part.

This weekend we head up to Michigan for a friends wedding.  I'm looking forward to seeing my family and a bunch of friends.  We'll be back for work on Monday-Adam starting his new job.

We hope all are enjoying their summer.  Stay healthy, happy and positive!
