Summertime

I knew that I would never be good at this blogging thing as this is only my second post in 6 months but hey 2 are better than one. Dave and I just got back from Seattle, Portland, and Vancouver. It was an amazing vacation and I really hope that we end up there soon. Just something about the place just fit us so much. We both agreed that we just felt so relaxed and at peace there. Hopefully we will be there eventually.

I told my job that I was quitting. It was a relief to finally tell them as I have known for about 2 months. This does mean though that I am really going to be a teacher! It's crazy as this is something I have wanted for a while and now finally have. I am glad I have waited though. For a while so much of who I was, was tied up in being a teacher. I know that I will never be identified by that and that I am now okay with just being Nickie. I think I have finally realized that jobs are jobs and that they come and go and that while I am really excited about this job it is just a job. There are more important things in life.

So that is life in general for me. Dave and I are still loving each other:) The first year just flew by. Now it's time to figure out our lives:) Hopefully we can do that eventually.
