Hello All,
Not much has been going on with us lately which is why there has been a lack of blog posts. For the past week and few days we've been staying with some of our new friends here on the island. We're still waiting for a house and the hotel we were staying at wasn't available anymore so they opened their home to us. It's been a lot of fun staying with them and I'm so glad I've had someone to hangout with. We're actually going to change houses today though, we're going to be staying with some other friends for about a week until the hotel is available for us. We're so thankful that other families are being so helpful and nice to us while we're still trying to figure this place out.
As for housing we have received a house, however we cannot move in until December 28-January 3 (sometime between those dates, hopefully December 28)! It's also only a few blocks away from our friends so I'll be able to visit whenever Michael is at work. Our personal belongings that were packed up and shipped have already arrived here in Hawaii (about 2 weeks early), however we won't be able to have them delivered until we have a house. We also still don't have our car, which stinks, however Michael bought himself a bike so he's been able to bike to work. Hopefully our car gets here sooner because we wanna start going to the beach more!
Michael is also really enjoying work. He says the people are awesome, he still gets to work on KC10's every now and then, and he likes learning about the new planes that he is working on. As for video games he still finds the time to sit on his laptop and play games, so don't worry I'm not depriving him of them, he plays just as much as ever.
Tony isn't such a big fan of Hawaii, but that's mainly because he's trapped in rooms most of the time. He can't roam free like he's used to in our old apartment, but soon he'll be able to be as hyper as he wants to be. He's just as cuddly as ever and is still eating like a fatty.
As for me I'm really enjoying our time here. Making friends fast has definitely made this stressful move much more fun. I'm just really looking forward to getting our house and getting all settled in. Once we get everything moved in and things start to settle down I plan on getting a job and starting school. I'm going to try to get a job somewhere on base and will be taking Vet Tech classes online, hopefully I'll be able to finish my classes quickly!
For Christmas we'll be keeping it very low key since this move has made a very big dent for us financially, so don't be surprised if you don't get Christmas presents until January or February when things have settled. We will also be setting up a P.O. Box soon (Michael's had that job for about a month now but it hasn't happened, tomorrow the meanie wife will come out) so if you have anything to send us let me know and I'll get you the address!
That's it for now, hopefully this wasn't too much to take it. Things haven't been too hectic here and if anything changes we'll be sure to update everyone.
