I feel like I have to confess why my blog is so empty of any adventure or good news. It's been a long time since I've felt like posting. I'm over that now so even though I haven't got anything amazing to blog about I'm still gonna blog.
Joe and I are living with Nicole, Jakob and Cooper in their apartment in Burbank. They have gone out of their way to make us feel at home and part of their little family in California. We take care of Cooper on Monday and Tuesday and take him to day care the rest of the week. This keeps us on our toes and we are loving every minute of it.
Our job prospects are slim to none. In the two years since moving here this is the first time we have not had a call for an interview for any job. Times are tough for everyone.
We miss Danielle, Owen and Joseph deeply. I never dreamed we would all be so far apart for so long a time. Danielle is doing a great job keeping us up to date with Joseph on her blog and both Owen and Danielle call us often. I love that they do that. Joe has yet to hold and meet Joseph Fletcher. In April he will finally go to New Jersey for a visit. Hopefully I will have a job by then. I pray to the craigslist gods everyday before going on line for the right job.
We celebrated two birthdays in February. Jakob turned 32 and I turned 52. We celebrated quietly but Nicole and Jakob made sure we Celebrated.
I'm missing friends and family but have promised Joe I would try to smile more. He gave me a gift he couldn't buy anywhere. Since February 28 he hasn't had a stinking cigar! I'm so proud of him. It's still very difficult for him I know. When times are this stressful he wants to smoke so much. I love this guy! He smells nice now and we're saving money not buying tobacco. Horray!
