turnover


What a week we've had!

Just got back from San Diego on Thursday evening. Ben sold his Honda 450 motorcycle the day before you flew home. We went up to Salem to check out a few bikes, and came home with a 1985 Suzuki 550. It's a nice little upgrade. The owner knocked down the price by $200, without us even saying a word. 

We are also in the market for a puppy. Ben and I stopped by a house where there were two male border collie puppies. They are 6 months old and both are brownish red and white. They will grow up to look something like this:


I'm very excited to get a puppy. I really like one of the males we saw today, but we still have one more border collie from craigslist to visit. 

Some of you may be asking, where will she keep it?
Good question, and good thing I have an answer. 

Ben and I are moving to his parents house. Ben's father will be leaving for a long time to do some contracting work in Afghanistan, so Ben and I volunteered to keep his mom company. It looks like we may be there for the next school year. After that, since we will have paid off the car and my wedding ring, we'll be able to afford a apartment that accepts dogs. We're thinking THIS place. It's not much more than what we are paying now.

We're going through a lot of changes right now. So much to plan for and look forward to!
