Checking In

Hi friends! I just wanted to do a quick check-in with you today. Blake and I are trying to figure out when we’ll be heading back to Oregon. We’re thinking Wednesday or Thursday? It all depends on how many more jobs he has up here and Alaska Airlines flight schedule. The flights with the lowest airline miles have ridiculous times. The one’s that we are looking at include overnight layovers in Seattle. We’d either have to sleep at the airport (hard to do with Layla) or rent a hotel room for a few hours. We’ll see how it all works out. I’ve learned not to worry or stress about these things because they’ll work out eventually.

I have been freezing my buns off up here! The other night on our way home from dinner, a thermostat read 5 degrees. I haven’t seen it above 20 degrees for the past week or so. Layla and I have been going for walks whenever it’s not snowing. I don’t think that I’ll take her for longer than 20 minutes anymore because her little paws were so cold after our long walk around the lake today. I bundled her up in a blankie afterwards and she’s sleeping peacefully now.

Sorry that I don’t have more exciting news or any health advice today. I’m just focusing on getting us ready to go: doing laundry, packing, cleaning the cabin, getting tickets booked, etc.

I’ll be back in a few days with a post about what I’ve learned during my stay up in Alaska.

Love,

Kilee
