Job? Meh.. who needs a job?!

Well.. I DO! I've been on the hunt for a job before we even left Sheppard and it has proven much harder than I thought. Of course I've applied for jobs that I had little hope in getting because I'm sure there is a better candidate out there, but things like Target, Starbucks, BofA and various department stores don't exactly require much education or training and yet.. NO LUCK! I had an interview with Starbucks yesterday and I should see within a week if I'm hired. I'm just going to give up and be a housewife forever! ;)

The Air Force messed up on our DLA (Dislocation allowance) again, for the 2nd time. So now we have to wait another 7-10 business days before we'll see that money. We've been here a month and a half and should have had this money in our account before we left Sheppard. But what can you do when you have to wait for the military?

Eric got a new tattoo on his right shoulder blade and he said it was quite painful! Haha! It's healing nicely and is starting to look normal (color wise).

As always here are a few pictures..
Eric's new tattoo


Obviously I've been replaced! ;)


He stubbed his toe! Haha!

Bentley on the trip to FL

He had to be right in the middle of us!



Ya he was a little drugged up! :)

Finally

I've finally decided to update this thing. Well, we are finally in FL! Woohoo! We found an apartment right off base. It takes Eric 10 minutes 'door to door' to get to work. It's not exactly what we were looking for and it's a little small (Bentley lives in the dining room), but we can't beat how close it is to the base. Here are a few pictures of our apartment..

This should be our dining room, but as you can see Eric's tool box, a bookshelf, my sewing table and Bentley's kennel took over. Good thing we have a coffee table.



Don't mind that one couch is lighter and has mismatched blankets all over it.. it's Bentley's couch. Yes he has a whole couch to himself.

Eric has been off more than he's been working since we got here and it's been wonderful! He just had Christmas Eve through yesterday off. We had a great Christmas at his Aunt Jaci's house and a wonderful uneventful New Years Eve. We also went to Busch Gardens on New Years Day and had a complete blast! It was an overcast day and rained for about an hour in the morning so it wasn't busy at all! We got to ride every ride at least 3-4 times without a wait. All in all it's been a good process of checking out the new area and settling into the new place. Here are a few more pictures..
