I would do anything for love...

Well, after a fairly long, though unintentional, hiatus I have returned to posting something. Life has been pretty full. It's strange, now that Dan is finished with school, it seems like we are busier than we were when he was still in classes. I think it has to do with the fact that we feel like we have more freedom to do things because there is no homework or required reading to fuss with. Whatever the reason, it's been fun. Granted, it isn't always fun because, while this freedom allows us to be more social, it also means that Dan isn't working yet and that does have somewhat of a sobering effect at times. It's not awful, but still a reminder that we are in a period of waiting.

I'm back working again. Next week will be my first 5 day week since coming back from Christmas break. Wonder how that will go. I'm going to be starting a CNA class next month which is exciting. It marks the beginning of a whole new career direction for me. It also means that we will be in Chicago at least until the end of February. Or at least I will be for sure. I love Dan and all, but I would be glad to send him some place else and be without him for a few weeks if it meant he had a call.

Otherwise, things are good, I think. We've both been sick over the last few days but it seems to be getting better. I also think we might have new neighbors downstairs but we're not sure since they seemed to be moving in last night at about 9:00. They could have just been looking around too but again, we're not sure. I suppose we'll probably figure it out sometime during the next few days. Or at least I hope we will!

One final thing that I did not know before this morning: the song "I would do anything for Love (but I won't do that)" by Meatloaf is 12 minutes long! Who knew?
