Today is my last day without Mike as he will be home tomorrow, which I am very excited about. I miss him very much. Anyways, we were talking about dates for a wedding last night. I think were either going for a date in November or December of 2010. It would be a good opportunity for the family to also spend a holiday with us.
Other than mike being gone though this week has been pretty good. I have just been very busy with my AmeriCorps stuff. I have been doing arts & some activities in the gym and whatnot. I think the kids are really liking it. Then tomorrow I will be doing a community clean-up here, and then heading off to pick up Mike.
Other than that I think I am going to be working on moving to my parents house they have down below theirs, because we found out we couldn’t get the house through first bank either becuase there are no papers saying that it is built up to Alaska Housing Standards. Yeah how retarded. I think these loan people are stupid! Anyways, so yeah were just going to move down there for now, but oh well I guess maybe thats for the better.

So, Last night while Sheffie was throwing up ham bone and we were cussing my mom for giving it him Mike proposed to me. Romantic eh? Well, that was kinda my fault, I begged for what he had bought me until he gave it to me. But no matter how he did it, I love the ring, and I am happy that he has finally made the step forward:)
So then this morning Mike left for Sitka. He made it there fine and everything, but I am going to be worried all week and on top of that be completely lonely. This is his first time traveling alone.
Well, thats about all that happened today besides us going to Craig. I was wanting to pick out some fireworks but we didnt get a chance to, so we will have to do it another day.
Well, anyways, off to bed the computer is dying, and I have no charger in the bedroom. Hope you all had a good Monday!

So, Mike is leaving in the morning for Sitka. I really wish I could go with him. I love Sitka, and I haven’t been there in awhile. However, I am stuck with working this week. So Mike is going to leave in the morning to go over to the ferry with my dad. Then he will be back on Friday night on the ferry. So until then I will be at home, lonely, with my mom but oh well. This trip to Sitka should open up more opportunities for Mike which is good.
So this week you will be seeing more blogs from me because I promised Mike a blog every day while he was gone.
I also wanted to post on here tonight that I found the picture of Mike, Bryce, Me, and Dick on Anchorage Daily News with Mike’s first Halibut. It was very interesting. I am guessing Bryce must have submitted it. You can view it at
I also ran across this old site of Sam’s that had our old Romania stuff on it… The journal from our group, and some photos and whatnot. I plan to do something with my Romania stuff, and my photos here in a few weeks. It is at I bought Ilife 09 and it sounds like it will have a lot of great options for designing a webpage with that stuff on it. So you can look forward to seeing that. Anyways, I think I am going to head off to bed. Hope you all had a great weekend, and a great week ahead of you. Oh yeah, and we also had two people die this past month in Coffman Cove. Very unusual. It’s kinda sad, as everyone here kinda seems like family because you know them so well.
