Holiday Crazy

I am so pumped to see Chrissy on Tuesday, but I am even more excited to have the day off of work.

I love my job, don't get me wrong, but recently people have been a certain type of crazy. They've been holiday crazy, the I need to get my child the toy they dream of crazy. Honestly, I can't handle it anymore. I need the time off. One more screaming parent might just break my spirit. Luckily the season is almost over now. There is only about a week left in the return period and then things will go back to normal.

Any by normal I mean cut hours and no guests... Oh well, the grass is always green on the other side. Right now a couple of days off seems like a gift and I am not thinking of anything else.

Seven Months Later....

It's been seven months and some odd days since I graduated from college. I suppose it's time for a life update. I am about to finish my last week working as the site director for the YMCA after school program at Sardis...and I have no idea how I'm going to say goodbye to these kids. They have completely stolen my heart. I'm leaving them to finish out the school year as a long term sub for a special education resource teacher! I'm so excited to get back into the classroom!

I never dreamed that I'd be where I am now; and I especially never dreamed that I would meet a man like Michael. He treats me better than I ever thought I deserved to be treated, and I have never been so happy with my life.

The only thing that would make my life better (which is hard to imagine) would be to see Ash Lamp more than once every three months. I haven't seen her since I turned ancient...but I get to see her Tuesday!!!!!

The Times They Are A-Changin'

It seems like forever since we have seen each other and that's because it has been months. Literally, months. The amount of changes that have occurred in the past few months baffles me. Never in a million years would I have dreamed I would be where I am now.

There is nothing wrong with straying from the planned path though. I am so completely happy in my life at this moment in time. The only thing that could possibly make it better would be to see Chrissy more regularly. Hopefully now that my busiest part of the year is over we can make that happen. Really though, other than that I love my life. I love my job, I love that I am almost done with school, and I love the excitement of not knowing what is next. Real world here I come ready to embrace you.

Even though nothing in my life is the same as it was 6 months ago, I am open to the change. In fact I am waiting with my arms open for all the changes that are still to come.

On another note, this is what I am looking at right now.
