Adjusting

Well, July flew by in a blink of an eye for us. i can't even remember what happened last month! just kidding but seriously it went fast. Jared has been in school and i have been getting our home put together. We also adopted a cat to keep me company. We went to PetSmart to get me a Beta fish because i got a free fishbowl and one of the workers there would not let us leave with a fish because we didn't have a tank with a heater, filter, or vacuum to clean the rocks and blah blah blah.( she would probably let us leave but i felt awkward because she was so adamant about the bowl) so we scratched the fish idea and decided to just look around and unfortunately they had a display of about 6 cats from the Shelter in the PetSmart. I HATE these displays because I always cry because they look so sad in the tiny boxes and I want to take them all home! Anyways these cute cat seemed pretty friendly and we went in and played with him and he was SUPER Lovey and Cuddly. Jared hates cats because they shed and scratch things and don't play fetch. But after we played with this cat he asked if I wanted it. so I took advantage of the situation and was like YES!!! So here is Benny. (I find it funny that we went for a Fish and left with a Cat)

 He was pretty upset about the car ride home and camped out under the bed for a couple of days, it would take us sitting int he room for twenty minutes before he would crawl out and say hi.

He is a super cool cat, hasn't scratched anything wants to be petted and be around us and talks to us. He is awesome company for me at home. Jared was so sweet in letting me get him, he knew I was having a hard time adjusting to him being gone a lot and knew I needed something to take care of at home. He loves me! We wanted to get a dog but they are a lot of work, its just easier when they pet is already potty trained and cleans themselves. haha

We got pulled over the first week here! Crazy this state has got the weirdest traffic laws, i feel like every intersection is different with how to cross and turn and signal ugh! Thankfully the officer was nice and just told us to pay attention! THANK YOU OFFICER FOR BEING KIND TO THE SUPER POOR DENTAL STUDENT!

I guess there is a lot of things to do here but frankly when we have a day off or a night off we just want to stay in. we can explore later we will be here for awhile.

So i finished painting the living room and kitchen area thanks to the help of my parents who came for a week and worked their butts off to help me put the house in order. They are SO AWESOME!!!!!! We got the garage cleaned and shelves moved and nailed to the wall in the garage and downstairs, they painted, changed faucets, outlets and switches, fixed doors and replaced handles, cleaned carpet and painted baseboards.  I will need to invite them back when i want to paint the rooms upstairs ;) they were so great and saved me weeks of work! I will have to take some cool pictures and post them later.

Humidity is killing us here, thankfully there has only been maybe 9 days of bad humidity that we have experienced and those days are pointless to do your hair or makeup and you end up changing several times throughout the day. It is a weird thing that humidity.
Jared is loving school and has his summer finals here the next few weeks so i will be chilling and partying it up with girlfriends here and going out of town for a friends wedding to give him the study time he needs. Kind of sad because this summer is the easy ease-you-into-dental-school term and next semester is going to be super hard and busy so I definitely need to find something to do! maybe a job! haha... maybe
