busy busy busy...

Life without Miami is moving along pretty normally. By the grace of God, I'm coping quite well. Although, sometimes things happen that make me wonder... if it's hard losing my hamster, how much more difficult must it be to lose a friend? a sibling? a parent? a spouse? For example, I'll open the refrigerator and notice a bag full of lettuce... and I'll think, just yesterday (two days ago, three days ago) I was feeding that lettuce to Miami. And it's just a pang - just, like, a moment. By the grace of God, I can still get what I need and close the refrigerator door. But all the little reminders like that - how many more reminders would there be if I had lost a friend or a spouse?

I've picked up again on the job hunt. I actually feel very confident about getting a job at my mom's school - I'm in the process of setting up an interview there for subbing. I have also called my number-one public school district. Hopefully I can be employed soon.

I've been searching for another hamster to adopt. There is a male and a female black bear hamster available for adoption in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The only downside to that adoption is the distance - I live in Kansas City and the hamsters are in Tulsa. I wish there was an adoptable hamster closer to Kansas City. I'm not sure if my parents will let my drive to Tulsa for the hamster. But oh well. I'll figure out a way to make this work out.

I'm terribly behind in my classes. I really should be working on that right now, instead of blogging. But I'm not. (shame on me!) So, okay, I'll go do that now. I'm gonna catch up. Not to mention I have TONS of cleaning to do. Later...
