Life with the Blakeman's

So to start out, Thursday is my Birthday!!!! Happy Birthday to me!!! 21, oh yeah! So we have been super busy with school, work and life all together. We have all of our stuff and the house is almost all set up. Andrew finally got his fish. Britain is as stubborn as ever, now she is refusing to come. Making us both mad, but it takse patience. We went to London with a friend yesterday, it was a relativly short trip, only an hour and a half. Then Saturday I went to Ely with Kaye, we had fun. We went to Market and Cathedral. I had an interview with the Child Care center West on Wendnesday, cross your fingers I got the job. I am ready to get out of the house. We had a Pig Roast on Wendnesday for the people leaving in Andrew's squadron. Britain goes to her 2nd puppy appointment tomorrow, so wish us luck. Andrew is finally getting into the working groove and enjoying it. I am getting our house together and not enjoying that, lol. I am but it gets old very quickly. School is keeping me busy, I am attending University of Maryland online, majoring in Human Resources Management, no one offers Education over here, so I took my second choice, I am taking intro to business right now, the book is interesting, but you know me, it takes forever to read it. Well speaking of school, i better start working on it. Love you all and miss you too!!

sorry its been so long...

Hey our wonderful followers. I am so sorry it has been so long since we have updated this thing, we have had SO MANY things doing on. Well we got our unaccompanied stuff on Friday. So our kitchen was chaos then Saturday we went to London. I rode the tube for the first time; all I can say is CROWDED!!!!! We literally went from one end of the Tube to the other. Oh I am sorry, it’s not the Tube it is the UNDERGROUND. Goodness me. Lol. It did say “Mind the Gap” like Dave warned me, they said it at EVERY stop. Oh my. It was hot. We went too united about our broken Laptop, got nowhere, a lady (not a claims agent) came over took some notes and copied our paperwork again and said someone will contact us. So that was pointless. Then that afternoon we got lost walking around London, finally we got back on the Underground and rode to the Theater where we got to see the PHANTOM OF THE OPERA!!!! Yes I said it. It was amazing. Such wonderful scenery and just wonderful!!! I got like everything at the souvenir shop. Lol. I am actually wearing the T-Shirt right now. I will put pictures on Facebook when the computer will let me. So we went home after that.
Sunday we went to our wonderful little church and then had to get our house together and cleared up so we could get our household goods on Monday. We have FMO, the loaner furniture in our corner waiting for FMO to come pick it up today. Monday was crazy, I had my wonderful friends helping me put things away and together. Unpacking is coming along, slowly!!! I just have to keep moving. Yesterday we got Andrews car, it is at the shop getting fixed for England and will be done today at around 4:30 or so. That brings us to today, we got internet at home so I will be on more often. Well I better go and unpack, I am procrastinating. Lol. Talk to you all soon.
