Montana

I have a few new exciting things going on...

First of all, I got the job in Billings, which is exciting. I have a real, grown up job. It's exciting. I'm excited about the opportunities that come with this. While it's not paying the most, it's a great place to begin. The current trick is finding an apartment that's dog friendly very quickly.

Speaking of my doggy, she's come down with a staph infection. She's on some crazy medicine, but seems to be doing ok with love and yogurt to supplement her diet to help the good bacterias return to her otherwise seemingly empty tummy. She's struggling to eat her kibble, but it might be the heat as well as her infection... I haven't been feeling so good, either, but it's super warm (like 100 degrees), so I'm trying to stay comfy as well as help my hound recover. Oh, the life.

edit 30 June: I'd also like to note that I'm excited about the Billings move, if not slightly intimidated. There are a few VISTAs remaining in that area, which will be cool. But, my time and "weekends" are completely different than the rest of the world, or so it seems. It's ok, though. I would eventually like to apply to MSU- Billings for a Masters in Mental Health and Rehab consoling. Seems interesting, and would probably result in promotions or a better job. The cool thing is that they offer online courses and classroom courses. I hope my life plan works out, and that this grown up thing really isn't as scary as it seems to be. So far, I've had someone else around to help make decisions for me or walk me through the processes that I needed to take. And now, well, I'm trying to do things myself. And really, it doesn't seem so bad. Yet.
