Well, I made it through my first week on my own. In the office, I have been doing a lot of work with recruiting and getting all of our prospective athletes entered into a database that we can use to send them questionnaires and other good stuff like that for next year. Crazy to think that we haven't even started our season this year and are already trying to get ready for next!
This weekend was pretty slow, but I kept busy by getting some work done in the office and watching lots of movies. I still don't have cable yet, so much of my time is spent watching House in DVD and many many movies! I haven't met many people yet, but the students moved in this weekend and so the other coaches should be making it into the office this week or next. So, hopefully I will be making some new friends soon!
I still have a lot of work to do with getting my workout programs and weightlifting designed. The first Cross meeting is tomorrow, but I'm not sure if I will have to go to that or not. Otherwise, our first Track team meeting is Sept. 2 and I would love to have my workouts in order by then. Or at least have a preseason conditioning routine put together for the athletes to prepare for the season. Hopefully they've been working out this summer though!
Official work starts tomorrow.. Wish me Luck!
Love,
Amy

Welcome Home!
There was much worry about my move out to Bismarck. My nephew was due on Aug. 6 and had not yet arrived, and I was bound and determined not to leave Ohio until I saw him. So, on Aug. 11 he finally came into the world (and was cute as a button!!), and I headed out West on Aug. 12. I finally arrived on Thursday, August 17, and let me tell you, was it hot! It was roughly 98degrees out here.. perfect weather for carrying numerous large objects into a building!
The weekend was pretty nice. My parents were here and the weather was great. I finally got everything unpacked and situated into my new home, and my parents hit some of the sites here. We went to this grill and bar called Buck's Roadhouse, of course.. and my dad had never been to Buffalo Wild Wings, so we ate there as well. On Saturday, we went to mass at the Cathedral, which happened to be a bit short of an actual Cathedral. Then we ate supper at a restaurant along the Missouri River. Sunday we had planned on going to the "beach" at the park across the street from my apartment that we were told about.. Well, more like Riverbed. It was slightly disappointing. So, we went to the Zoo instead, which was pretty fun!
This morning my parents headed home, and I had my first day of work in the office. My head coach basically just showed me the ropes and got me set up for recruiting, so it was not too overwhelming I hope. Tonight will be my first night alone in my apartment, so hopefully I survive and don't get too freaked out about all of those new little noises and such.
Wish me luck!!
