So much has happened since the last time I blogged. We have been having issues with electricity and internet, so now that I have both, I can get you all caught up…

From Pendleton, OR
I think I mentioned a couple days ago that Mark was coming down with a cold. I’ve been trying to doctor him up, but it’s taking its course. This morning before we left Burley, Idaho, Mark went into Walmart and got himself some appropriate gear for the outdoors… Continue reading
From Rock Springs, WY
I admit that we killed some time in Cheyenne this morning, and then again at the Lincoln monument this afternoon, but we thought we’d make it all the way across the state anyway. Continue reading
The infestation
When I was a kid, my friends and I used to sing a spoof on the National Anthem:
O say can you see any bed bugs on me?
If you can, pick a few, for I got them from you!
Mark’s hand, part 2
When I wrote about Mark being electrocuted last night, we had not yet tried to give Kimba a flea bath. Poor Mark is taking a beating! Continue reading
An interesting turn of events
Tuesday and Wednesday were my days off, and that’s when I did all the job hunting I wrote about in my last post. I believe I have been hired at Tea Thyme In Door County which is owned by the women that live across the street from us. I’m to meet with Karen on Monday morning at 10:00 to firm that up a bit.

Last week they thought they had a couple more people hired to work in stock, but the people never showed up and didn’t even call. Continue reading
First day on the job
Yesterday I had orientation at Williams-Sonoma and I came out with the worst migraine I’ve had in a long time. Today I was nervous about whether the headache would come back while I was working, but thankfully it didn’t. It’s a good thing, because the rest of me is sore. Continue reading
New glasses
Today Mark took me to Sturgeon Bay to pick up my new glasses. You may recall that my old glasses got badly scratched when I had my bicycle accident several weeks ago. I’ve been using my long distance glasses for the last several weeks, but I’ve been going nuts and getting headaches trying to see anything around the distance of my laptop screen. Mark took pictures of this momentous occasion:
