A boat filled weekend

Over last weekend Aaron and I became proud owners of a 1973 fish and ski boat. I have never seen Aaron smile so wide before-like a kid in a candy shop. We enjoyed loads of fishing and swimming all weekend long. Now it is Tuesday and the reality of the work week has set in- plus the sun has gone away. I am working this weekend only 2 more Orientations left for the summer. One this weekend and one next weekend. I am turning the big 28 on Monday- Crazy- I still remember 21 the summer before I left for Europe or 24 when AB proposed- like yesterday. My baby making mojo is buzzing the closer I get to the big 30, but so is my travel bug.

Aaron and I are off to Europe in 6 1/2 weeks for 10 days ya!!! 5 days in Ireland and 5 days in Germany. When I think of both of those places I think of my roomie from UNI in Hull Stephanie, who leads the coolest life ever as a traveling nurse. Right know she is a nurse on the Semester a Sea boat. She is traveling through the Mediterranean for 2 months. Sometimes I wish I would have paid more attention in Biology class. We traveled through Germany in 2002 with her sister Elizabeth. We all stayed in Ulm with Alex whose family owned an organic farm.

This time around AB and I are spending some time in Munich and Salzburg. I have never been to Austria. We hope to catch all the cool hot spots, like all of the beer gardens, castles, pretzels, the English Garden, brats and of course a little bit of the 'Sound of Music'. We are truly blessed.

I am still search for the my calling so to speak- or a dream job ya know. One where I do not have to be behind a computer 40hrs a week. I think tents, trees, bikes and berries are way cooler. This time of year I always get a little itchy when it comes to life. I am a planner and I am trying to plan the next step in our lives. AB is ready for anything, I just need to figure out what I want my next step to be...

I also, think I might be lucky enough to teach another class this fall, which made my year last year. I absolutely loved it. I am excited I am reading a book for class about Hurricane Katrina. It should make for interesting discussions.

Back to the old grindstone.
