In Limbo

Well, I have submitted my revised thesis to my committee and now it is the waiting game for a week or so to see what they say. Andrew has been offered a temporary job with Merit Medical in SLC and also has interviews with Caterpillar and Ford later this month. I really think he has a great shot at all of them, but for now we are in limbo and can't really make plans too far in advance since we don't know where we will be! On another, more exciting note, I have just started selling Avon. I am really excited about it and I have always been a mark representative so now I am beefing up the business so to speak. In the future, I will be starting a "product of the week" category which will feature one of the products that I have tried and my review of it! I am really excited to wrap up all of our loose ends here in Utah and start out on the next chapter of our lives together. :)

Thesis

I am currently working like a madwoman to get my thesis revised and sent to my committee so that I can actually graduate in August. Andrew has had quite a few interviews and we have two really promising ones. Of course, they are across the country. I am also really bad at figuring out how all this blogging works. How do I get a cute design on my page? How do I add blogs to the list I am following? This newbie blogger needs help! :)

First Post

This blog is going to be all about the Gaarder family. Right now Andrew is done with school and we are looking for a job that uses his degree in Mechanical Engineering. I am just finishing up my thesis and will hopefully be done in August. It is an important transition in our lives and we can't wait to see where we will end up!
