We Have Internet!

(Era, Where I work)


We have internet and it feels GREAT! We actually just hooked up wireless so I am sitting in bed typing this and I have to admit it sure is nice. I have been spending a lot of time in bed these days, as my work seems to completely exhaust me. Speaking of work, I am three weeks in now and I couldn't be happier with how it is going. I really do love my job most days. This past week I was sent up on the helicopter to do the four glacier tour. That was pretty cool. I had never been in a helicopter before and although it was a bit weird at first, I found myself enjoying the ride. I have plenty of pictures to post from that.(Me on the Taku Glacier)
Also, Mom, Kelly, Aunt Tammie, Brayden, Cayden, and Kinsey were all in this past week. It was Awesome! Unfortunately, I did have to work still, but since the sun isn't setting until around 10pm, we had plenty of daylight to spend shopping and doing touristy stuff. I really enjoyed taking them to the places I love to eat at and showing them the Shrine. Sadly, we didn't see whales but it was just gorgeous out there. I have lots of pictures from that as well.
Saying goodbye was of course very hard and it took me a few days to adjust to them being gone. Hopefully this next semester will fly by pretty fast. I am heading home for a visit over Christmas break. That is super exciting. As much as I love Juneau, I do miss all the people in Richmond and it will be nice to catch up with old friends again.
Back to reality, I have early work tomorrow. I have been on bus duty all week which means my day starts earlier then usual. I can't believe it's Friday already. Sadly, Fridays are not the end of my week. I also work Saturdays. BUT that makes it one day closer to Sunday, which I plan to spend relaxing and cat napping. Okay, Okay...as much as I would love to keep writing, my eyes are telling me it is time to call it a night and "hit the sack."
Have A Happy Friday!
