So you know the girl I started training with? Ashley?

She quit.

I think someone in her family died.

So today I went out with Jackie and Lindsey, who is another trainee. She started about a week before me. We only did one house, and supposedly it would have taken an experienced team only a couple hours to do, but come on. This house had 17 rooms, including a game room, a rec room, a family room, and a sun room. Aren't game rooms and rec rooms about the same thing?

I feel like I'm going really slow, but I'm just trying to be thorough.

The best part about this house (other than it was absolutely gorgeous with a huge backyard) was the dog, a chocolate lab named Euro. He was SO SWEET and I wanted to steal him and take him home with me. Also there was a lizard of some sort. I liiiiike lizards.

And now, a meme from foresthouse.
