Three Months of Silence

I'm ready to emerge from my blog silence now. I blame the lack of internet as the #1 culprit behind my absence. Gary and I have served our time in San Antonio and are just about to come home. That's not to say that it was an unpleasant experience, but we're ready for Utah again.
Things have been a little crazy lately, unlike the rest of the summer which was pretty mellow. We decided to buy a truck a couple weeks ago. We haven't got it yet, but we have it all picked out and we're just waiting for the seller to get in contact with our credit union. It's our first big purchase as a couple. It's my very first loan. Being a grown-up can be pretty scary. Assuming everything goes according to plan, we're getting 2008 Toyota Tacoma. Wahoo!
In conjunction with the truck, we've been trying to sell our current car: the Malibu. We've gotten a few offers lower than we wanted to go but we're flexible. We're kind of on a deadline, so we might have to skimp on the price a little.
Gary's last day of work was yesterday. Hallelujah! I could not be happier for him. He has worked so hard this summer, putting in 75-hour weeks and working 6 days a week. He deserves to be done. My last day of work was today. I'm actually a little sad to go. The jewelry store I worked at was so good to me. They even threw me a little party for my last day, complete with a cake and gifts. I love the Hernandez family!
Our days here in San Antonio are numbered...3. Come Sunday, we're outta here. So get ready, Utah. Hip, hip, hooray!
