Week three

Maybe it is just because I started work this week, but it seems longer. On Saturday I made my first bike ride into the downtown. Bob has been making it to get to the University, but I had not had a chance yet. I think I did ok and we made it to the Saturday Market and back. Also this weekend we headed towards Santa Cruz to visit some friends from Bob's time at U of O. It was great. We had a wonderful meal where we talked about how unbelievably difficult it was to find housing and move to California. It turns out Bob and I probably had the easiest time of all (out of three couples), boy were we surprised to hear that. The next day we had a great breakfast together before heading to the boardwalk. Although it was pretty cool, we couldn't take Lulu so we left there hoping to go back soon. We then started our drive north and continued to look for beaches to stop at, but it turns out they also don't allow dogs!! So we stopped for lunch in Half Moon Bay before heading east for home. Next time we'll take our dog friendly places book with us.
Last night we had dinner with Bob's cohort. It was interesting to look around the table and be able to point out who we'd like to hang out with more and who we hope to not be seeing very often. One of the guys looks like "Jim" on the office!
My work is going ok although between working at home 2 days a week and not going in until 10am others, means I really have to work at getting 40 hours in. Plus we still don't know if she can keep me longer than 10 weeks.
In other news our streets and carports are being repaved and it is a bit of a pain! Friday we can park our car next to our place again, thank goodness.
