San Diego here we come...

Just a quick update... Abby and I interviewed for a jobby job in San Diego Monday morning. By Monday afternoon we were offered a position working the night shift at a Kaiser Hospital in San Diego. We are both extremely excited to be heading there for the winter. We start October 20th and work there through the beginning of February. Having said that, we had to sign on for another 2 months in Phoenix putting us here until October 4th. In October we are heading to NYC to watch the NY football Giants take on the Seattle Seahawks on the 5th of October, then we are heading upstate NY for a week. After returning from NY we are going to take a few days to get settled into San Diego. We are not sure where we will be living, but hopefully we will know before long. Don't worry, we are travelling with a queen size air mattress in hopes of having visitors! The housing stipend for San Diego is $1600 a month, so we are hoping to both take the stipend and try to find a place to live for cheaper than that. Craigslist didn't seem to promising as San Diego is very expensive to live. Worse case scenario, one of us takes the free housing and the other takes the stipend. We will be taking a pay cut, but well worth it to live in perfect weather for the winter. Keep checking for updates on our San Diego move. Our night shift is almost up. Promise to write more later!
Much Love to all...
In His peace,
Michael and Abby
