A few new 'things'

So another week down. Work went well, we had 4 days of computer training- 2 days on AutoCAD and then 2 days of this program called Sketchup where we worked with 3D spaces. I've never worked in 3D before so I found it pretty fascinating!

I've started jogging again, trying to get healthier and with the beautiful scenery nearby it's not too hard to get myself out there most days. I love being there at sunset. I think I found my Redondo Beach replacement! That was my de-stress jogging boardwalk back home, nothing like being near the ocean to calm you down! Here are a couple photos of the area...

I also found a bicycle this week! I bought it at a store across the street from IKEA. The people in the store were nice enough to help me adjust the seat and put my basket on since I don't have the tools at home to do it. But I love my new bike! I've figured out the route to and from work (takes about 40 minutes to work since it has a slight incline and 30 minutes home). I'm sure I can knock 10 minutes off of each of those once I get used to biking more. If I mapped it out right it's aprox. 4 1/2 miles each way. Not bad! I don't have many more good weather days to bike, but if I see no rain in the forecast I'm definitely going to take it to work! Here is my new bike! This picture was taken yesterday after my roundtrip trek to work!
I also finally broke down and got my Swedish phone and kissed my old American number of many years goodbye. So sad! But here is my handy dandy new iphone! I was excited to finally get a white one! If you have 3G and want to download an App called Viber you can call and text me for free! Just ask me for my number!

Well, that wraps up this past week. I've been hearing a lot of rumors online about tomorrow, being that it's the 10 year anniversary to 9/11. So be safe everyone. Until next time...

Weather: 63*F Cloudy (feels like home)
