Update

So I really think my last post is hilarious. Because with all that's been going on recently, all those goals have totally gone by the wayside! So much for being more on top of it in 2010! Living in a different state than my husband, and not knowing when I'm going to join him, just makes for a crazy life. I have been getting more organized, since packing is a great way to de-junk. But yeah, working on the goals - not so much.

Anyways, they're keeping Jack really busy in Prescott, which is great. And he reached a big milestone yesterday - 1000 hours flight time! He still needs 1000 hours PIC (pilot-in-command) before he can apply for jobs, but he's hoping to get there in the next month or so with how much he's flying.

He's staying with a friend right now, which is great because it's cheap, but not-so-great because it's not a cool situation. He's definitely experiencing some stuff that will be funny to look back on one day, like how the guy and his girlfriend kiss on the couch with Jack right there, how the guy thought his previous girlfriend might be pregnant, how Jack fell asleep on the kitchen floor because he was so tired but his bed (aka the couch) was not available (seriously, face on the linoleum - he must have been so tired!), oh, and the time he got back from Vegas and the house smelled horrible because...the guy and his girlfriend had cooked all weekend and not done dishes or cleaned up the chicken blood they spilled. Oh, good times. But he's hoping to get into his own place within the next week.

I gave notice at my job that my last day would be March 4th, but then plans changed because Jack's getting his hours so fast, so I'll be at work another month or so longer than that. And it's great that I work where I do, where I can say I'm leaving one day, then extend it and everyone's stoked. It is kind of a nice experience to leave a job, because you get such great positive feedback. When one of the docs you work with says it makes her sick to her stomach when she thinks about you leaving, that's one of the best compliments you can get, right? I am sad to be leaving all my friends there, and such a great job. I really don't know if I'll ever have a job again that I like so much.

My super awesome parents are going to let me stay with them for a little while, so I won't be all by my lonesome self. I'm here pretty much every night anyways (yes, I'm posting this while at my parents' house), so pretty soon I'll be able to just hop in bed instead of driving home at night. I've already started moving my stuff over, and it is hard work! But it's nice that I can move it gradually. But next time I'll let Jack pack the whole house (I wish!)

Well, that pretty much covers it. Just playing life by ear, that's what we're doing these days... but glad to be making progress towards Jack's future as a med evac pilot. Only 1,000 more hours to go! :)
