It's been a busy two weeks since I last posted. We went on vacation to Missouri and spent time with family. We especially enjoyed time with the nieces and nephews.
When we got back, Matt's parents stayed with us a few days. On Wednesday, we went to Abraham Lincoln's birthplace, which is about half an hour away. We also went to the Lincoln museum in Hodginville. I learned that Mary Todd Lincoln, who was from Lexington, had siblings who fought for the Confederacy. I plan to look for books to learn more about this. Her home in Lexington can be toured, and Jefferson Davis's birthplace is also in Kentucky. If we check out those sites and the nearby Civil War battlefield, we could put together a historic tour for visiting family. Grandma would love it.
Matt's parents left early this morning, and this evening I had a job interview at a church that needs a part-time secretary. As soon as I got home, I changed into my swimming suit and went to water aerobics. A few minutes after I left, they called to (essentially) offer me the job. They're going to recommend me at a business meeting in early August. As long as things go as expected, I'll be employed in August. I'm still waiting to hear about adjunct teaching at the university.
Now I'm ready for bed.
