Update!

Okay, So for those of you who don't know. Ryan and I have had a lot going on lately in life and I just wanted to provide an update for anyone interested.

1. Ryan got a new job back in March at the Cheesecake Factory and is no longer working at TGI Fridays. This is a great thing because he doubled our income put together.

2. I am no longer working at TGI Fridays either. I now work at Ann Taylor Loft, a ritzy clothing store for people with lots of money. At least more that I can spend on clothes. It isn't the best of the best of course but it is definitely for people who are financially stable. I am pretty darn lucky though because I get a 50% discount!! Woo hoo!! So it is affordable for me with that. I just have to budget and not get everything I want. Oh and both of our jobs now provide us with benefits, which is wonderful!!!

3. Molly, our corgi, is now 20 pounds and is probably going to stay that weight. We love her so much and she is definitely a part of our family. The best dog i've ever had!

4. Ryan and I are moving!! We are upgrading to a two bedroom apartment. It is 1000 sq. feet. We have our own entryway, and a patio, oh and there are two bathrooms too. We really like it and will move in in three weeks. Im sooo excited!!

5. Ryan is starting a candy vending machine business with the little 25 cent candy machines. My bedroom is full of vending machines, which is not cool, but is one of the reasons our new apartment has 2 bedrooms, so the other bedroom can partly be for his business. He is really really excited about this and figures he can make us enough money over time that neither of us will have to work in our 30's. That would be nice!!! I believe he can do whatever he puts his mind to, and statistics say that this is one of the best business to get into. So im for it!

6. We are out of school for the summer and have been for about a month now. It has been really nice being able to have some extra time. No homework is a blessing indeed.

Well if I think of more, I will definitely let everyone know. I should be able to keep up with the blog more now that it is summer. Yay!

Yay, another post :)

More money is always good, and not working in your 30's even better :) I know a family here that does the vending machine thing, I have no idea what they make but she seems to like it :)

Glad you get some time off from school.
