Random Randoms

Its been awhile since I updated last.  My apologies.  I have no idea what I accomplished in the time since I've written last.  How is it already June 24?  Does anyone realize that on the other side of 6 months from now, it'll be Christmas EVE!?!?!

Work is insane and tedious and exciting and busy and slow all at the same time.  I can't believe I've been at my new branch for almost 2 months now.  I guess time flies when you're still trying to figure out what happened at your branch for the prior 8 months since your predecessor did NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING.  Seriously - still paying salt and snow invoices.  Fortunately, I ADORE my boss and (98% of) my new co-workers.  There's always that ONE PERSON.....

Lots of things are being discussed and decided and figured out and planned in the King household right now.  Our apartment, which we've lived in since October of 2009, 's lease ends 10/31 of this year and we won't be renewing our lease.  Not that we don't like our apartment.....we don't LOVE it, but it just doesn't have enough space.  Whether we rent another apartment, rent a house, build a house (although I think that's now the bottom possibility) or buy a house, we'll definitely be moving later this fall.  I actually lined up an appointment for us to talk to a mortgage lender the week of 4th of July to see what our options are.  Surprisingly enough (ha), we don't just have 5% of house sitting around, so we'll have to get creative with a down payment.  And from my brief discussion with the lender on Wednesday night, we probably make too much money (insert rolling laughter here) to get any help from the government.  We'll see.

Our 3rd anniversary (?!??!??) is coming up in a few short months, and with that, EVERYbody (and I mean EVERYbody) is interested in our baby plans.   Trust me, folks, it is almost a daily discussion, and it doesn't seem like we really know when a little King will make its way into the world.  We are in that mode of talking about it but then taking a step back and panicking at everything that would change, at everything that would be different.  I know everyone says that you just adapt and your life only changes for the better, but I admit that I know Chris is scared, and so am I.  I feel like I should still be in college.  How did I get to be almost 28?!?!???  At any rate, plans are in the works.  I don't know how concrete they are, but we're already thinking ahead.  I'll leave it at that.

Thank God it's Friday!!!  We get to go see Billy Gardell (Mike off of Mike & Molly) tomorrow night in downtown Columbus, and I'm stoked.  Not only is he HILARIOUS (we've seen him live before), but Chris and I have been working such long and hard hours it'll be nice to do something a little different than dinner out and then in bed by 10 on Saturday night.

Oh the exciting life we lead..................
