Nearly a quarter of the way

Well, the first week of Nick's month-long training is coming to a close. Since he now gives me less details about things, it's harder to come up with posts. So today's post is just going to sum things up.

Things I've learned this week:

Lesson: High school never ends
Explanation: Some of the "friends" that Nick made earlier in the week are now alienating him. If you know him, you know he's not the type of person to force his presence on anyone. So he's having some lonely lunches and dinners every now and then. I'm hoping that he can make friends with some of the more mature people that are there. Girls are so cliquey!

Lesson: It really is like the movies.
Explanation: I'm not at liberty to elaborate.

Lesson: Everyone has an opinion
Explanation: I've asked many people where we should try to live. At first I had it figured out. But now I keep changing my mind, and I'm getting mixed information on the "best" places to look for housing. It's very difficult when I've never been to DC, so hopefully my visit will help.

Lesson: 3 cats don't equal one person
Explanation: I miss him.

Thanks to everyone who has offered to help in any way, whether it be packing, plane tickets, finding housing, or just keeping me from feeling so lonely. I just keep telling myself how he'll be done with this soon, and then we can start a brand new life! Don't worry, we won't forget about anyone.

I'm sorry you're feeling lonely! And Nick is feeling lonely too! It just means you guys are meant for each other (as if you didn't already know that)! Wish we could come visit you guys and use up some of that great apartment. Good luck with apartment hunting. It will work out...you'll see. We keep praying for you guys!
