The Mass Exodus

While we were house-sitting, I drove down a bunch of streets I don't normally go down. And, I realized there are tons and tons of houses for sale and rent in our little O.B. Tons. There is some kind of mass exodus inland going on, probably because it is way cheaper to be an inlander. This is the opposite of how it normally is though - normally people flock to live near the beach come summer.

So, I seriously need to get someone to hire me. If I had a job, we could afford to rent a tiny little house with a yard and dog privileges. Our dream come true. Minus the part about the dog, which is just my dream come true. I need to get a job before the mass exodus is over and they all flock back!

I miss the dogs we sat so much. Especially the yellow one. No, the brown one. I can't pick, I love them both so so much. No, I pick the yellow one because the brown one accidentally stepped on my toe and cut it and it still hurts. I finally was getting to be a good dog trainer (the Gentle Leader IS God) and then we had to leave. If I didn't have all this studying going on, I'd offer to take them to the beach everyday still, but I just can't fit that into my sched now.
