Update:

These are some photos from last quarter:






Thankfully Jon's car wasn't as bad as we thought it would be. It ended up to need a mighty tune up and fixing of a leak from the coolant. The amount was $586 which was much better than predicted, like I said. So we aren't as bad off.

We had burgers last night. The meat tasted sooo good! It had been a while. Pay day = grocery shopping wohoo

long time, rough times

it has been a while since I have posted. Lots of things happening here. Jon is graduating from Regis University in less than a month. His car is now not running as of yesterday. I borrowed my work van and towed his car to the shop. The shop called us this morning saying that they don't fix German cars. So now what? We are either going to push it across the street to Meineke or else tow it to a place that the first shop told us fixes German cars. I guess, who do we rely more? I don't even know.

Because of the car troubles, Jon drove me to school today at 7:00am. My class doesn't start until 12:30 and then he will pick me up after he is done tutoring at Arupe (a high school affiliated with Regis). I got some homework done this morning, that is always a good thing. I am quite tired now though.

Do you like Ramon and Mac n' Cheese, cause that is pretty much all that is in our cupboards with the exceptions of tortillas, cheese, bread, water, milk, and jelly.

We are looking at new apartments closer to my school so I don't have to pay $5 a day for parking. Jon is going away to grad school in Fargo, ND next year and I have talked to Jenny and she is cool with moving down here if everything goes all well. So we would split rent making it less than Jon and I are paying now. It's just the trouble of getting the down payment/deposit. Along with fixing Jon's car, paying our bills, getting the money to drive back to MN for Erin's graduation, and so on.... It goes on and on. Can you tell I am stressed! Add to that, that my job will be ending in a month or so for the summer season. Money, money, money!
