...drumroll please....

I found out last night that I will be switching to the day shift starting our next work set (Monday). I'm feeling mixed emotions about it, but really glad that I'll get to be back on a regular (and more normal) sleep schedule so that's what I will focus on and not the other stuff that makes me wish I wasn't being switched. I will be working with different people too so I will have to adjust to that. I'm glad that my friend was able to switch too so we can keep carpooling together, and I'll have someone to talk to too :]

Anyway, that's my news for the week. We are "lucky" enough to be having a formation bright and early this Saturday morning in our Full Service Dress (the blue uniform aka Blues). This is possibly due to the chance that someone in our Squadron got a DUI and we were warned that the next time that happened that we would have this formation. Now let me just say that the weather has been crappy these last 2 days with winds up to 60mph and rainy and such. Almost everything is closed today (schools, government offices, etc) because of the severity, so if that means anything to you you will know that that is what we might also be dealing with tomorrow. I am so not looking forward to that, but crap happens. And then we volunteered to work at a car wash to raise money for Squadron functions (aka the Holiday party every year). We'll see what the weather does to this plan too...

Anyway, I can't fall asleep (been up since 3pm yesterday) and I blame the 5-6 sips of Redbull that I had at 3 am today...or the fact that I'm cold too and I can never fall asleep when I'm cold. Warming me up takes a while too :/ But yeah, I'm going to go get ready for the day since there is no way I'm gonna fall asleep when I'm this wide awake. I'm sure I'll be taking a nap later.

Big News!

So yesterday I was told by my friend Debi (whom I'm staying with right now) that I have until the 15th to move out since they will be on leave and their landlord doesn't feel comfortable with me staying here in their house while they are gone (cuz I'm not on the lease). That's 2 weeks to find a place, sign the lease and move out...can we say PANIC!!
However...I found one that same day!!! I was at a different friend's house ( Stephanie and her bf Justin) who just happens to know of a place going up for rent..on the 15th!! I told them I was interested (her bf helped me with talking to the owner) and filled out the application for the place and found out this afternoon that I get to move in!!! So over the next two weekends I'll be packing and getting ready to moove out! The place is a 3 bedroom and 1 bathroom home ( with an outdoor shower and toilet too...kinda weird I know) and is on the coast in North Shore, Hawaii!! I'm so totally excited about this place you have no idea! I'll post pics later for sure! And the rent is really good too...especially for the location and the number of rooms it has! So yeah, just thought I'd share my excitement! Ttyl!
