Things are beginning to fall into place. First off, I have a job. Yay! I was hired as a content writer for Allied Trade Group (an e-commerce company that sells lighting fixtures). I'll be inputing product information and writing descriptions for the website and maybe doing some image processing as well. I'm actually excited about going back to work now. :-) I begin on July 16 (assuming I have child care secured by then).

We also have a place to live now. We're renting a 3 bedroom townhouse in Shoreline (just north of Seattle). It's a nice place... not our ideal location, but at least it's in a safe part of town. After our exhaustive search for rentals we finally realized we just can't afford to live in the desirable parts of Seattle (which was why we had to rent in Shoreline instead). The only thing we can afford in Seattle right now is a tiny apartment, a piece of crap house or something in the sketchy parts of town (none of which were exciting options for us). So we settled for Shoreline (again), but we do like the place and at least we'll have the space we really wanted. I'll send out a mass e-mail soon with our new address in it.

We're moving tomorrow (July 2) and I'm not sure when we'll have internet access again. Hopefully I won't be offline too long, so check back to hear more :-)

Thanks for all of your well wishes!! Knowing I have support (even virtually) in this stressful (yet excited) time in our lives means the world to us. I'll get back to you all soon.
