So, we've been back for almost a month now. It almost feels like we've never been gone. Everything is the same... or almost... Almost because the weather is colder and wetter, our friends' kids are bigger, the trees have little to no leaves and we don't have our own place to live in. We've been staying at David's parents' condo in Midway and have been commuting to Provo but are really hoping to find stable work so that we could commit to paying rent every month.
Speaking of work, I'm doing some babysitting in Midway and I just started a new job selling nuts at the University Mall. I was nervous about the nuts job because I don't like dealing with money, but I enjoyed my first day and I think I'll do just fine. The babysitting is not that bad either. I care for a 1.5 year old little girl who is very nice and pretty easy and once a week I send the older sister off to school in the morning. The family I work for is nice and they are happy to have me work for them.
David has been looking for work too and he filled out tons of applications. So far he got a couple of interviews but we're hoping that he'll get more and hopefully a full time job. He will be working for the Borders bookstore for the holidays but we don't know if that will become a full time position or not... We're happy that he found some work though...
Being back it's been a good experience for us. We are happy to be back and to see our friends that we love. It's also nice to just go see familiar places. It somehow makes us feel safe and happy even though our life is still tough and we don't have much enjoyment going on right now. Being back in Utah feels good and we are happy to be here and to continue building our life together.
