OK, I'll have more to post when I get down there... photos and such but Bryan just had dinner at the Lake Kiowa Lodge and Tavern. Well, I don't think he made it past the bar to the dining room area actually. He said it was pretty good - he had a reuben sandwich and a beer or two - $1 beers at that! I guess every Friday night they have a buffet of some sort - tonight was seafood, I think next Friday is Asian. Saturday nights is half-price steak fajitas and margaritas!!!
He did say lots of 'blue hairs' were in the dining room and lots of wine and "pink" wine was being served. And lots and lots of golf carts.
I can't wait to get there. The population of LK seems to be mostly people over 55, which in a way is quite all right with Bryan and I. Hopefully it will be QUIET. There's even a curfew for kids under 17 - I LOVE it!!!! When did I become old?!?!?!
There's a quilting club I hope to join once I get moved. I've always wanted to join one but never have had the chance... now maybe I will.
Can you tell I'm bored?

Not Too Much To Say
Well, another week closer to Bryan coming back for a visit. Not much has happened since he left - homework, clinicals and packing a little. Boredom has set in... Big time. Oh, there's things I could be doing: my new Zumba DVD's, cleaning/packing more, studying for my board exams (which, by the way, I say I will do every night when I go to bed - "tomorrow, I'll study for my boards, I WILL". Then tomorrow comes and goes with no studying getting done. Maybe tomorrow.
The past three semesters seemed to have flown by, but this one - oivee! It is DRAGGING. We still have six months to go and the whole class is already has short-timers. Nerves are frayed and tolerance is low. NOT a good sign. I hope my clinical instructor gets a move on and gets my Texas affiliations set up so I can do clinicals down there in Nov/Dec.
I have decided... because I know you all care... to move just as soon as I graduate (Jan 21) and take my exams in TX. I just don't think I can stand being here another month and I think I'll be less stressed if I move first and then take the boards. So the plan is to be 'home' Jan 23. That's better, a date I can look forward to and plan for.

The Backyard
Bryan sent a few more photos of the house - the back yard. It's rather quite large, especially since he'll have to mow it. HAHA Too bad it isn't fenced and we couldn't get the landlords to agree to fence it. They did agree to a 20x30+ dog kennel for Hannah & Maggie.
Bryan says there's quite a bit of open space around so we will certainly start taking them on walks to burn up energy. He's even met some neighbor's and they want to set up play dates between their over-active Blue Heeler and our two - and they have a fenced yard!!
