summer job & loving dog

I've had a pretty great week!
Things are settling in with Remington; he's a wonderful dog, and I have no regrets about adopting him. Ry & Rem are best buds too :) He's very active, so we are taking more walks (a good thing), and throwing tennis balls and his Kong about a million times a day. :) Although the kong we got is already breaking apart; so much for indestructible! His teeth are just too powerful. So we'll have to buy a bigger one. And he's learning to not be afraid of the hard floor (he doesn't like the sound of his nails on the tile), although it's a work in progress!
Craigslist is really turning out to be great. I was contacted about a summer nanny job for a family in GB. We talked terms, and agreed to them, and today had a meet & greet. They seem like a great family; 2 boys ages almost 4 & 6, and in a verrrry nice neighborhood. We agreed on $10/hr, and its Wed/Thur/Fri about 10 hrs a day. It'll be a niiice paycheck, close by, & hopefully fun summer! It fits perfectly with my schedule of summers off from school June-Sept, and I'll be able to bank some money. :) A BIG thanks to Michelle for getting me hooked to craigslist and meeting some great families in GB!
The weather has been crazy; my CPR class via Baker was cancelled Wed, and my classes were cancelled Thurs as well! As nice (and strange) as it was, I would have rather had class, so we don't have to jam more info into a short amount of time.
Time to go to petsmart, then some babysitting tonite. :) Then off to Alma tomorrow for Kaylas Third Birthday party!
