Things going on in my life.

This is a tell all post. I feel like there is so much that I have wanted to post for the past three months and just have not had the time to do it. Life is so busy when you teach kindergarten! So, here is a random list of things that have happened in my life or thoughts that have trickled through my brain. Hope you enjoy. Sorry there are no pictures. I am seriously going to try and get back to regular updates with quality photos.

1. I moved with Annie and we had this great idea to paint before we settled in. Did I mention there is still painters tape up. Ha ha
2. I got caught in a two hour delay one morning on the freeway on the way to work and my cell died in route due to over texting. Whoopsie!
3. Went to three concerts! They Might Be Giants, BareNaked Ladies, Five For Fighting with Matt Wertz...heart him!
4. Did five a lot of laminating and had some great friends volunteer to help out with the cutting.
5. Feel like I got all my friends addicted to saying "five a lot". Heart!
6. Had a rocky time in the relationship field when I thought I was done with all that mess.
7. Realized just how much I love love love chickens and ducks and hope to have some of my own some day.
8. Went to Lancaster, PA and spent some good quality time with people that truly love me.
9. Lost 35 lbs and counting. Wearing a size I wore in high school...what the heck???
10. Got called as a relief society committee member and have been lacking in fulfilling my duties thanks to locking my keys in the car and having a cell phone die.
11. Ate a philly cheese steak and loved every bite of it till about 30 minutes later and then next 12 hours!
12. Made some financial goals.
13. Still having ankle problems since I rode it down the stairs twice in the snow like a wild stallion.
14. Have been loving the connection with an old friend in depths of California and how much he really supports and believes in me.
15. Killing myself looking for a summer job.
16. Prepping out the wazoo for a job interview.
17. Wowing everyone at the job interview...and I quote, "you are a very, very strong candidate." Heart!
18. Getting a phone call before I was even home with two squealing teachers telling me that they are offering me the job! me- "Shut up, I am not even home yet!"
19. Two instant friends at a new job that I look so forward to and all summer to prepare for.
20. Feeling like I really am getting to know Katy on/since our trip and loving her for her and what a great person she is!
21. Seeing a cousin that always makes me happy and feel good about myself.
22. Looking forward to a concert with friends this month. Yes please. I can't get enough live music in my life.

I am so grateful to my Father in heaven who looks out for me and constantly lets me know that He is there and loves me. I know that at times I feel insignificant when I think of everything that He has going on, but I love that He still takes the time to help me out with my little situations and let's me know that He has everything under control.

Do you think you can love me as much as you love chickens and ducks?

I'm so happy for you and your new job! Maybe being in a smaller town will give you the opportunity to get some poultry on your property.

My fowl fetish would certainly be satisfied with some poultry on my property!
