it's me and rick

Rick was gone for all of June. While he is often on the road working, every time he gets home, we are very happy to be together again.

As always, the future is not a clear shot. Rick's work is changing again. Which could mean more time at home...or more time away.

I am in the process of finishing my MFA and applying to PhD programs, none of which are local. Which means I may be away from home for long stretches of school.

Who knows what will happen next.

So to stay in the moment, I'm still working full-time, writing my thesis, studying for the GRE tests (general in August; subject in October). Rick is working in Boston sometime soon, and I will (hopefully) join him on the road. Never been to Boston before.

Minor setback with that pesky Achilles tendon tear in my right ankle that we thought had healed....apparently it is not. So I am also back in physical therapy for a bit. It is not as painful as it was back in February, and they did not slam me into a boot this time. Grateful for small favors. PT starts this Friday.

Next Monday: Mariners vs Yankees game in Seattle!

Life is good.
