Snuggle Buddy

            I have been dog/house sitting for my aunt and uncle. It's weird to have a house all to myself, well except for my snuggle buddy Cassidy (or Peanut that's her nickname). The first few days I felt bad for her you could tell she knew her owners were gone and her eyes were always sad. But its been getting better. I never have to worry about being cold at night or alone she has to be touching you all night and sometimes she dreams that she is running (that's always fun).  She is a very good dog and a love bug at that, unless there is a rabbit or squirrel near by then she has to save you from the horror they could bring!! :)

           In China news I now have my towels and a new pair of shoes since they don't carry my size over there and their towels aren't as good as ours. I also officially bought my ticket for China...its going to be a long flight (Like 30 some hours) I will be in an airport or on a plane for two days...not looking forward to that. I am hoping that I can get good sleep while flying so I am not a zombie by the time I reach China. We are arriving on their Monday morning and I am hoping not to scare everyone.

          I am excited about everything except that VERY long flight and the fact that my Chinese is terrible...it might be a interesting 10 months of my life. I also found out that I will be sharing my apartment with he other Elementary teach Amber, I hope we get along I need to email her actually it might help the process of getting along better. Normally I don't have a problem I only every had one roommate in college that I really didn't get along with so it should be ok. I guess for now this is it my next adventure on my way to China is my trip to Chicago next month to get my visa. I will tell you all about it right after it actually happens. In the mean time Adios amigos and amigas (if only I could just speak Spanish in China instead of Chinese).
