Well, Unfornutely about a month ago Torrey lost his job due to lay offs. I should have expected it when he would tell me that he had NOTHING to do at work. For atleast 2 or 3 weeks he was just going into the office to be there if anything came up.
He has had 1 interview for a position in Salt Lake. Two more interviews are coming up, one in Lincoln, Nebraska and the other in Denver, Colorado. Any job will do, although we will be sad to move. BUT we're always up for some adventure! (secretly I've been wanting to move back to Colorado, so we'll just have to see what happens!)
Pleas keep us in your prayers! This is such a stressful situation.

Salem Springs Triathlon COMPLETED!!!
Well, I am very excited to share that I just completed my very first triathlon! It was SO FUN to do it with my Dad!
Don't I just look FABULOUS in my wetsuit!?!
The swim was my favorite! Yes, I still had a small freak out, it's WIERD swimming with goggles in a lake (you see green stuff floating by)! So I did a lot of breast stroke, my time was still around 15minutes!
That wetsuit even looks better when I'm wet!
I have a fabulous friend that let me borrow her bike (Thanks Nadine!) It made a huge difference in the bike portion! For instance, this bike has clips (your feet are attached to the peddles), which is great untill I came to a really steep hill and I couldn't down shift fast enough. I know you know what happened and yes it did, I just fell right over. The bike stopped moving and I hit my side. It was quite embarassing! I walked the rest of the hill and then continued my ride. We did 2 loops and the second time up the hill, I made it! Oddly enough I CAN learn from my mistakes!
Have you ever tried to run after you bike hard...it's horrible! I could hardly move. And actually, I mostly walked. I tried to run, but I was TIRED and my legs felt like wet noodles. Yes, I will be working on the running part a little bit more before the next one,but this time, I was toast!

Yes, you read (heard) me right, I do believe I will be doing more tirathlons! It was a BLAST! Even with falling on the bike and walking the run, I had a great time. Anyone want to join me?!
