It's been almost a month since we posted already?!?!? Time flies!!!

Jesse is officially done with classes, and I think most of his finals as well. On Sunday night, his professor of his research writing class had that whole class over to her house to celebrate the end of the semester. I was reluctant to go along because I didn't know anyone and would be the only spouse there, but it ended up being a pretty good time! His professor, Dr. deRosset, is a really awesome lady, I could tell that after only spending one evening with her! Jesse is going to continue working at the help desk this summer. We thought he was going to be able to work full time, but it turns out that more of the staff are staying for the summer than they orginally thought, so Jesse's only going to be able to get about 20 hours a week. He wants to get a second job so that he's working full time, so please keep him in your prayers as he's looking for another job!

I received news from my DL last week that in about a month, she is going to be transferring me to another salon. She told me when I got the promotion that this would probably happen, but I guess I was still hoping that it wouldn't! She's always felt like when you promote someone within a salon, it's harder for them to gain the respect that their new position brings, that it's easier for them to go into a new salon with their new position already, and I see what she means. I never want to confront the girls because I don't want them to hate me or think I'm on some kind of power trip when I was one of them for a while and almost all of them have been there longer than me. My DL also feels like the Salon Leader at the new salon will train and develop me better, and she wants to see that happen because she eventually wants to make me an SL!!! While I think it will be a good change for me, I don't want to leave my clients behind and being able to work with Danielle has been just awesome! Also, we were planning on taking a vacation for a week at the end of July/beginning of August to celebrate our 22nd birthdays and second anniversary, but my new SL will be gone in Buglaria (where she's from) for the entire month of July, which might mess our plans up. So please just keep me in your prayers as all of this happens!!!

We will be home in about a week for Tyler's wedding, and after that, we aren't 100% sure of when we'll be home this summer, so we will try to keep you posted!

Thanks for the update. It sounds like you might be the big boss of a salon while the real boss lady is in Bulgaria. I have never been there, but it sounds like a nice place to be from. I'll have to google it and see if Bulgaria might be anice place to visit sometime.
