Dear Mandy,

I'm sorry for not blogging more often, but as you know, life happens!

Flynn got back in town today. He was out of town on a work trip for the past two weeks. It was a long two weeks. I am so happy he is back home. It had been so quiet around the apartment with him gone.

I did my best to keep busy while he was gone... I played kickball, worked as a personal trainer, went kayaking in Lake Union, had a Ladies Wine Night, had two job interviews, had dinner with Flynn's family, and spent a lot of time hanging out at home. I had a lot of fun, but I'm so happy Flynn is home.

This past week I took a bunch of classes at my gym. It felt great! I took a kick butt yoga class. I've never sweat during a yoga class before. It was fun. I also took a spin class and a pilates class. My work schedule is so crazy this summer (early mornings and evenings with nothing during the day) I have my days all to myself, so I'm going to try to take as many of those classes as I can on a regular basis.

I should take some pictures of our Magnolia apartment. I love our apartment. It is really the home I've been looking forward to for a long time! I'll try to take some pictures this week and get them posted before too long.

The other big news is that Flynn and I are going to get a dog soon! First Flynn has to get checked out by an allergist, but after he gets the all clear (fingers crossed) we'll get our very own Boston Terrier puppy. We have all the supplies we need (crate, dishes, toys, food etc) and have even puppy proofed the balconies. Now all we need is the puppy! We are hoping to get her in early July. It'll be good because I have the time during the day to make sure she can get outside and work on training. We are painfully optimistic (I know we think it'll be easier than it really will be), but it's fun.

All in all, Life is good! Yep. Life is good.
