...wow.  There's a lot of stuff to do.  Major Foley was right....everything happens in the first week.

But it's all great, i'm beyond happy to be here and so excited with what i'm working on here at the Citadel.

Anyway, more updates once i get some time and hopefully an internet connection at home.

Happy Thursday!

In Albuquerque on vacation...so nice to just kick back for a week.  Yay!

At the airport after checking out of Crestmont....ahhh, all the boxes packed!

Today the remaining family from commissioning left.  After a long day at Seaworld and a long and tiring day at Disneyland, we're definitely ready for a break.  We just hung out and went to the mall today (read: stayed out of the sun).  Tomorrow Bob and i get to leave for a week in Phoenix.  We'll be in Flagstaff on Sunday and visiting all around the rest of the time.  We're going to my corps on Tuesday morning and we're still trying to pin down a time to check out Bob's corps.

I'm so excited--I've gotten lots of encouraging messages and notes from people that are excited about me coming to Phoenix Citadel.  I'm eager to get started, find out what my responsibilities are, and get active in the programs too (band and songsters here i come!).  Bob and i got the addresses to our quarters--actually, we each got each other's addresses originally.  Turns out they were reversed.  I'm living where i thought i would be living and Bob lives FIVE miles away (11 minutes according to mapquest).

Anyway, it's after 12:30, so technically we leave for the airport late this morning--i better get some sleep.  Happy Weekend!
