hola.  well it's been an interesting week so far and it's only tuesday.  saturday we went back to pittsburgh for a memorial service for a man who died at our church.  that was very sad.  then sunday we went back for church and then we went to the bank to put me on brett's checking account instead of me and him both having one with the same bank.  then yesterday i took gramma to pittsburgh to go to the liver doctor.  she has to go every three months since her transplant eight years ago.

today was pretty crazy too.  first i went and took the written driving test to transfer my pennsylvania drivers license to an ohio drivers license.  then i had to go to the bmv(thats bureau of motor vechicles)to get my actual license.  then  i had to go to the court house to transfer my car's title from pennsylvania to ohio.  then i had to go back to the bmv to transfer my license plate and registration from pennsylvania to ohio.  then i went and did laundry.  then i came home and attempted to fashion my new license plates to my car, with some luck.  then i cooked dinner.  and now i am here.  crazy day.

i hope tomorrow is a little more relaxing.  i do have to clean the bathroom and kitchen.  and i need to sweep and vaccum.  we'll see if all of that gets done.  normally i sweep and do laundry on mondays, but i was with gramma in pittsburgh all day.  and normally i vaccum and clean the bathroom on tuesdays but i was out doing car stuff and laundry all day today.  then on wednesdays i usually clean the kitchen and dust and clean the windows.  dusting and cleaning the windows can be pushed back to whenever though.  it's not a big deal.  i need to dust everyday in this old house but it just isn't going to happen.  oh well.  i don't have allergies so it doesn't bother me any at all.

well, i think that's about all for now.  i miss katie a lot.  stupid minnesota.  i hate that place.  yargh.

So, it has been an absurdly long time since i have written anything.  it's been a really busy few months.  i got engaged in late march i think.  and i've been married for eighteen days now.

my husband, Brett, and i moved to steubenville, ohio for his job.  he's a reliabilty engineer for arcelormittal steel in weirton, west virginia.  i am a house wife.  which is actually a lot of work.  keeping a house is harder and more time consuming than i thought it would be.  but i wouldn't trade it for the world.  i love it.  and i love being married.  i waited so long and it finally happened.

so besides that my parents are buying a house in toronto, ohio about twenty minutes away from Brett and me.  that should be nice.  someone just needs to buy their house now.  so be praying for that.  the bid they put in on the house they want was accepted and they something like thirty days for someone to put a bid down on their house.  my mom isn't worried but zeek is.  he's good at worrying though.

well anyway, that's about all that's going on.  i need to get back to cleaning the hallway, it's a disaster. the joys of being a house wife.  i'm just kidding, it is a joy.  do all as unto the Lord, right?
