Plan A

So, in embarking on my journey through the world of “blog”, I decided to begin with a general introduction with a little information about me!

-This is me and my husband Adam

Adam is now a 2nd year dental student at the Medical College of GA (MCG), and I am also in my 2nd year of school @ Augusta State University (ASU).  We were previously residents of Athens, GA (go Dawgs) but will be staying in Augusta for at least three more years, maybe more if Adam decides to specialize (orthodontia, oral surgery).  It’s about a three hour drive from Atlanta and seems to be out in the middle of nowhere…but we are slowly adjusting and I think we can do it!  I guess time will tell!

-These are our “kids”

The pup on the left is “Pepper” or “Pep” as we all call her.  She is a little shepherd mutt that we found last August.  She had been living under a house one street over and was apparently raised by cats (obvious cat traits).  We found her when she was about 4 weeks old when we first saw her.  We were told by the guy that lived in the house that she was abandoned and needed a home.  So, with a Chik-fil-a in hand we lured her out and called her our own.  She can still be a little skiddish but has grown to love us and now allows us to love her in return.  The stinker, yes I said stinker, on the right is Biscuit.  He is our adopted little pride and joy.  We needed a little playmate for our Pep and when we saw him at the adoption spot in front of a pet store we couldn’t resist.  He used to look like he was part dachshund part yellow lab but has grown into a strange combo of short legs and long stocky body.  We love him regardless!  He was recently hit by a car and underwent invasive surgery, but after a few weeks of rehabilitation he is back to his rascally little self.  Pepper is so glad he can get back to wrestling!

-Here is our current home in Augusta, GA

This was actually one of the first places we found when looking for a home in Augusta.  We had recently come home from an excursion in Thailand and were desperate for a place to live.  It turned out to be a sweet little abode that has suited us well.  Unfortunately there are still trains in our little downtown area that have a tendency to slow us down from our regular routine so we will hopefully be relocating on “the hill” away from the train tracks!
