Settled In...

I know I can't blame almost 6 months of not posting on here completely on moving... but I'm going to try! Nick and I have been in the fabulous town of Fort Wayne for just over three months now, and have been loving every minute of it. I can't say I don't miss Traverse City, because I do, but we are making new friends and settling in just fine down here. The downfall to the summer here is that there is no water! One of our favorite things in Michigan was to spend our afternoons at the lake, and there is just no water here to enjoy!

When we moved here, I had three job offers all at once. I could manage a brand new Sprint store, work full time at another, or take a part time position at Radioshack selling cell phones there. I chose to take the part time position at Radioshack. Knowing that when school started back up I was going to have to be part time anyway, I didn't want to have to look for another part time position down the road. Nick was going to transfer his job at Best Buy, but when I turned down the management position at Sprint I recommended they interview him. They did and they loved him. He has been store manager since we moved here and is really loving what he does. I recently decided that I just don't love what I'm doing here at Radioshack and quite frankly I'm not a big fan of my manager. So, I talked to Nick's boss (who hired me once already) and asked if he would take me on part time back at Sprint. Nobody can turn down a beautiful red head, so I just put my two week notice in at Radioshack and will be back selling Sprint and doing what I loved to do back in Traverse City!! Nick and I will be working for the same company, but they are opening up two more stores next week, so we won't be working side by side. Which I'm sure is for the best!! :)

I know it sounds crazy, but I am actually really excited and ready for school to start back up. I think that because I have finally planned out my next two years of classes and know exactly what my degree will be, I'm just ready to get it over with! My degree by the way, will be a bachelors in Biology with a minor in Chemistry and will come from Purdue! Don't ask what comes after that, because I still have to figure that part out! Nick is in his last semester right now, just a couple of credits away from his bachelors in business administration.

Other than that, not a whole lot has been going on here. But, just in case anyone has forgotten... my birthday is coming up right around the corner!! :)

Until next time...
Nick and Sierra
