Long time, no blog

Hey everybody! I've just realized that I haven't blogged in a super long time, so I'm going to try and make up for it. Hopefully there are still a few people who haven't given up on us! I am STILL looking for a job. My friend has just found her third job since moving here in August (she quit the first 2), so I am a little discouraged by the fact that I haven't been able to get even one. I'll be starting school on March 2 and next week is Orientation Week. I am still trying to figure out all the loans, but it is very hard for an international student to get loans now because of the economy. I've pretty much only got one option now, so I'm working on that currently. I am excited to start school, although I'm also a little nervouse because I've been out of school for so long. I'm not sure how much I remember! I should be pretty busy once school starts. I'll be taking four classes this semester, which means that I'll be at the uni Monday through Friday. Some days I will go from 9 A.M. to 4 P.M., but other days will only be 4 or 5 hours long. That's about all the updates from me. Amy and Caleb are doing alright and I think they mostly enjoy school (except for the homework). Mom is still keeping busy with the birds. She especially likes the butcher birds. I think that once I am in school again she would like to either volunteer somewhere or get a part time job. She's not used to having so much off time! Hope everyone's doing well and enjoying winter. We're almost done with summer!
