We Made It

Well, we made it to Idaho without any problems. Our cars did great over the mountains even in the snow we passed through. Yep, there are places with snow already. But not here in Post Falls, ID. It's been very pretty looking out here but it's a bit on the cold side. However, I just checked the weather for today. 49 in Minneapolis, 54 in Post Falls, so not too bad. :)

We are living in the lower level of Jack and Dollee's house. We have a very large living room area which we separated into two parts. The first part is where the TV is, it has two couches and a lazy boy. On the other side of the room we put a desk for me to work at and I'm hoping to find a 6 foot table to add to it so I can have room for my work laptop, a second monitor and perhaps even my personal laptop. Too many computers. We are a bit sad that Dan will most likely be taking his nice computer to the church...not real sure about that yet though. We also have a "kitchen" area. Table and four chairs as well as cabinets, sink and a microwave. I'm going to try to check out a book at the library on how to cook with a microwave. We are welcome to use the kitchen upstairs any time we like but it would be nice for us to have some Independence as well. We brought our Select Comfort mattress with us so we can "sleep in our own bed". I have slept better the last two night then I have in the past 3 months. Very nice. There is a guest room down here as well that we are welcome to use if we receive any company...so come on out. :)



Dan and I both start work on Monday. I'm looking forward to working from 6:30-3:00. Which will be 8:30-5 in MN. I think it will be great, I can roll out of bed, throw some clothes on then come out to the computer. I won't need to take a shower before work, make lunch or drive! And the best part is that I will be done by 3:00 in the afternoon! Not sure what I'm going to be spending my time doing after 3:00 but it sounds fun anyway.

Dan will begin Monday morning as well. First meeting at 9:00. We don't know yet what he will be doing. I'm already looking forward to hearing how his first day goes. Dan and I both attended a really cool Spiritual Warfare class both Friday night and Saturday morning, and Dan got up early this morning to attend the 7:00 men's breakfast. It sounds like Dan might need to learn to be a morning person. hehe.
Tomorrow is Sunday, our first day at church. I'm looking forward to this. So far everyone we have met seems excited to have us here. Hopefully it won't take long to make friends. We are invited to Doug and Linda's (pastor and wife) for Monday night football. I've been told they project the HD TV onto a 22 ft screen. Go Vikes!!
