Courtney- I have been super busy in school as far as clients go since becoming an advanced student. It has pushed me to do better and speed up my timing. I have a good request clientele now and I enjoy seeing them every so often. It's amazing the connections we make with people and just how much they open up when they are in my chair. As fun as it has been, I am very ready to be out of school. I don't have to go the full 2000 hours and I am burnt out! I see the light at the end of the tunnel though :) I only have 22 school days left. We have a few school closures in the month of July so that is putting me back a little bit more than I thought. It works out good though that way. I'm super ready for a break, and although I don't want to go back to school after the break, It makes my last day of school August 2nd (I only have to go for like an hour) then my graduation day is August 5th at 4:15. The reason it's so lucky is because my whole family can make it to support me. My first cosmetology school graduation went like this....Jared was in Iraq, my family couldn't come, and my friends' mom was nice enough to be there for me. I was an emotional wreck! I'm happy that everyone wants to come so I can change that sad memory a bit :)
Jared- Jared has been busy with work now that "summer" is in effect. He has been working 6 days a week and is feeling a little burnt out as well. He likes his job, but he has been getting prepared to go back to college and is playing with the idea of going to North Dakota to run semi up at the rigs for a bit. So far it's still an idea and no plan is set in motion. He is now clean shaven and you can tell he feels better. He never liked the long hair and beard, but he loved the reactions that people gave him while he was growing it. As soon as it was cut off you could see that he felt more confident. That brings me back to why I do my job: When you look good, you feel good.
Jared & Courtney- We celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary on June 2nd. I can't believe it's been that long already! A lot of stuff happened before our anniversary so we just had a quiet celebration at home. Jared sent me roses at school....they were so beautiful!!! That night we went to Montana Ale Works for dinner, Jared had a ribeye steak, and I had ribs. It was so AMAZING! We purchased some new bikes so we could get some active fun in together. For our first ride, Jared thought it would be a great idea to go 14 freakin miles. I about died hahaha! I am so out of shape it's ridiculous! Unfortunately it has rained every single day since we made our purchase, so we have only been able to go one time. At least we made it count I guess.
Tico & Kiwi- Kiwi is still recovering from her injury, but she is doing so much better and you can tell that she is happier too. I felt bad that she has been living in the mobile home since last October so we upgraded her into a slightly larger recovery cage. It's still a downgrade from the mansion, but an upgrade from the mobile home. We call it the townhouse, She seems to like it :) Tico has learned how to make a wooing noise that kiwi does. it's pretty cute when they do it together. He does it much quieter than she does though. He also learned how to make the sound of a magpie. The darn things hang out in the tree's in the backyard so he hears it a lot. We don't love that sound so much.
That is pretty much what has been happening here. We are happy, healthy, and getting by day by day. Hope all is well for everyone else
