Since I was last here - so much has changed. Rick and I moved to Tucson...I arrived FridayJuly 9 after a 2 days haul ass trek through WA, OR, CA and AZ in 113 degree heat...to start a job on Monday July 13.
That job was a night mare! I was hired by a temp agency as an admissions recruiter for The Art Center Design college here in Tucson...I was on the job a total of 7 working days before I contemplated socking the president in the jaw. What a mean-sprited, passive-aggressive, down right frightening human. (Although human may be a generous term.) Succubus is more accurate!
Any way, I am now back on the hunt for gainful employment...I know everything happens for a reason, so i am trying to remain positive and keep pluggin' away.
Tucson is so very different from the Pacific Northwest. It is beautiful in its own rugged way...
A drive up into the Catalina mountains to arrive at Mt. Lemmon was very impressive. what landscapes, and the higher we went the more the the vegetation changed! We started out in cactus land and ended up in the Ponderosa Pine forest. There is a ski resort up there too! Ski Valley, at 9000 feet! We move into our new house this friday...stay tuned for that report!
