Crazy!

So it has been quite the week. Last Friday the furnace in our house went out (we manage some houses and we live in the attic of one of them. There are two other apartments in the house besides ours) so it was freezing in our apartment! Since the furnace went out Alex and I had to go get space heaters for all three apartments. A total of 14 space heaters! So the heaters were going all Saturday and then on Sunday when everyone is trying to get ready for church the lights start to flicker and then out they go! We tried to flip the breakers, but nothing. Then we started smell a slight burning smell. So we tried calling our boss, but he was at church and didn't get back to us until like 2:00. So he called the electrician and he came out and apparently we fried the meter outside, it caused the metal siding on our house to get really hot and the electricity was arcing from the siding on our house. We are really lucky the house didn't burn down! So our house had no power and no heat so we had to move the girls in the apartments below us to the dorms and Alex and I have been in a hotel for the last week and a half. They had to go in and rewire the whole house. They went through our floor to get to the girl's apartment below us so our carpet is all torn up and I have about an inch and a half of dust over all of our furniture. It has been kinda crazy but on the upside we are get all new outlets (plus a couple new ones), new light switches, new light fixtures and new linoleum in the bathroom! So my bathroom is going to look awesome! I will have to get some pictures of our apartment in the disaster stage.

Alex is really enjoying his internship. It started out a little slow, but things are starting to pick up. He is using his Spanish skills too! I can't believe that Alex is going to be graduating in July! We can actually see the light at the end of the tunnel. It will be crazy to see where we end up!
