Updates updates (and a thought)

Update one (about jobs)- there is no updates. I haven't heard anything. But the position that (I hope) my name was put in for closes on the 31st, and I'm taking the certification exam for deaf education next weekend, so crossing fingers, I'll have a job soon. Because...

Update two Kerry and I decided to start house hunting, because our lease is up in August. We found a great house that's a foreclosure, for a great price. We looked at it twice last week, and Kerry's going to see what kind of loan he can be pre-approved for, and we may put in an offer! We could definitely afford it on just his salary, but my having a job too would definitely help! It's a three bed, two bath, in a really great area. The house has great resale value, and it's a tiny bit closer to the main highway to get to Savannah. So if we did get the house, I wouldn't have as long a commute.

Update three We have almost everything done with wedding planning. We went to Florida early this month to figure stuff out. In one week, we booked a florist, a cake baker, the officiant, ordered a ketubah (Jewish wedding contract), set our menu and booked a room block. I think that's it, but I can't remember off hand.

Not much else going on. I'm working on CPH, finished a Sheldon for one of Kerry's coworkers (who had a baby March 9), and I'm taking a brief hiatus from CPH to work on Juno Regina a bit.

Oh, and that thought...I don't know what made me think of this, but I had a strange thought the other day. Vegans (at least those for political/ethical reasons) believe that wearing any animal fiber is wrong because they're treated inhumanely, right? I wonder how many of them realize that not shearing a sheep (or any other animal that's shorn regularly) is inhumane, because the matting can become painful and the heat could become very uncomfortable...

Oh yeah!!! And I forgot- Kerry and I are going to Disney World in June. His friend and his friend's girlfriend are also coming. We haven't seen his friend in a year and a half, so that's awesome. AND we're staying in the Animal Kingdom Villas! I'll be working a day (obviously), but we'll be spending a weekend together. Kerry's friend hasn't been to Disney World since 1999, so a lot has changed.
