A little news...just a tidbit...

Just as we're making plans to move and drive down south after moose hunting season in September our best-laid plans seem to be changing...maybe.


We had pretty much given up hope of Customs ever calling us and then a few weeks ago they sent an email asking applicants in TSU (Training and Scheduling Unit - basically means that we have passed all pre-employment steps and are now awaiting a position to open up in our desired geographic location - which for us is Washington, Northern Border) to fill out some paperwork to update our files.  Well, they accidentally showed everyone's email addresses and there weren't as many people as we thought there would be.  So, at the time, we thought maybe we are higher up on the top of the waiting list.  Then, this past week, we were sent an email by the hiring center asking Robert to update his medical history and then today they called to schedule a drug test.  Lately, people who have been getting called for a drug test and medical update have been contacted within a few weeks for a place in the Academy.


Now, we're not holding our breath, but it's a little more hopeful now at least.  Guess we'll hold off (for now) on buying that 5th wheel.  :)


Here's a cute picture I took of Cheyenne right after I got my birthday present - a new camera!!

    I CANNOT get over that picture of Cheyenne, by the way. She looks SO grown-up...so different than the last time I saw her...sniff-sniff...
