More posts to come

I was going to do another post about my new classroom- pictures and all, but I cannot get the pictures to upload. I don't know what's up... and I don't have time to really wait...

Just got off the phone with the hubby... and boy do I miss him. He's doing pretty well over in the "cooler" state of Colorado! Poor guy has had quite a few issues with "the puppas" (Gus). He seriously is having some separation anxiety, which I would have never anticipated. Gus always was drawn towards Josh and seemed to PREFER him more, but Josh tells me that Gus has had a really hard time with me not being there. Who said dogs were dumb? I mean, who wouldn't miss me? HA. I think it's so funny when Josh is talking to me on the phone and Gus gets all weird- like whining and barking at Josh if he can hear my voice! He's so dang cute!

Josh and I are praying that Glendale Police Department gives us a call for the official start date for the Academy. Josh has been in contact with them almost everyday these past few days, which is GREAT NEWS. Last we heard it was going to be August 31, which is a little sooner than we thought, praise God :) They are just finishing up the background check, so however much longer that takes, is how long until he gets to join me out here! We've done this whole "distance" thing before, and folks, it's the same no matter the circumstances. It is no fun. The only way I can describe it is kinda cheesy- it's like I don't feel whole. Part of me is missing, and I am just floating around. It's especially hard that I am in a new state, new school, new job, NEW... It's adding a bit more of the "floating" feeling! I am somewhat thankful for the all the work that it takes to get ready for a school year. I know that we'll get through it, and we'll be so happy that we did it, in the long run. I already see the fruits of our labor with my job- it has been great so far!
