The WeekendS 5 (past month)

The top 5 things that has happened me since I last wrote on July 4th :)) Enjoy. Back to the weekend 5 next week!!!!
1. We spent our last week in TN mostly getting job apps worked out. Then we got the truck on Saturday July 10th. The 26' truck was HUGE!! Very scary seeing last truck was 24'. Needless to say we dont have that much stuff so it was too big for us, we had to rope it down at the end and stuff kinda flew all over the place.

2. Rain was our worst enemny as we packed up our truck. We began packing it on Sunday July 11th and finished on Tuesday July 13th. We got the car on the truck just before they closed and finished up late Tuesday night. We began our trip to AZ at 3am on Wednesday July 14th.

3. Drove 27hrs till we hit New Mexico. Its all a blurr but it was crazy too. The animals didnt like it. None of the cats would pee in their box and thought we were insane. Rainbow went along with it. In NM I had to mail back 2 books and a dvd we'd kept from our library by accident. Our fines at the library in the Boro between Mel and me reach almost $15. Yikes!! Oh well never going back there so why does it matter?

4. Got our truck and us moved in barely by time they closed on July 16th. Unfortunetly the truck took too long to unload so we had to drop it off LATE on July 18th and it cost us $64 :(( But it was done and we were glad. Of course us getting complaints cause the truck blocking cars was lame as our new apts have NO place for a moving truck of ANY kind! Wth? Yeah unfair of them. In the end it was how we had to deal with it.

5. Since then we have applied at jobs at 4 malls. I have had 1 interview, Mel none. But I have my second one tomorrow. We have more places to apply. I'm trying to not get discouraged as time is running out. God has been faithful to us and I doubt he will let us down but still I am a bit nervous now. But we are trying and not giving up. Otherwise enjoying fast foods places, mostly sunny days (but some rain due to monsoons of the season) and even our tv is plugged in. Lots to unpack, dealing with bugs that snuck in with us isnt fun but we are getting them all slowly, and just learning to live here. We love it here otherwise and TN and our former lives are fading in our minds piece by piece.
