…and Christmas in July. That first, I suppose.

It’s been a really good month for us all around. My brother-in-law is an official deputy now. I’m an official sales assistant, and today I got the books (the thick – dear god very thick – books) to study for my securities tests. Last week (exactly) Mel and Travis closed on their first home, which is beautiful beautiful. Moving sucked big time, but I’m mostly healed from it now, and I’m very excited for them.

The July in Christmas:

I’m going to snowbird it for a couple weeks just after Christmas, news of which is also part of the astoundingly good July I’ve been having. I heart Abe. :D And my new job, where even though I’m taking ten days off next month (road triiiip!) they let me have another nine (eight if we get the third off) in Dec/Jan.
