| There are probably a million things that I would rather be doing right now. I could be swimming with sea turtles off in Hawaii, I could be running through puddles in seattle, but here I sit working the night shift. I have brought 2 of the 6 dics for Gilmore girls and have finished them both. I ate two popsicles and a bowl of spaghetti at 3am. Such excitement, I know. I have also searched the net for potential colleges. I have decided that I want to get my teaching degree. Some fun facts about that. I love kids and don't know why I didn't think of this while I was out in Virginia. Now to go to school there at the college that was close to me will cost 3 times as much to go now because of out of state tuition. Oh the irony. On a good note...I am thankful that I have been on track this whole time at ozark, so I am not losing anytime now with declaring a major. It has always been in the back of my mind to teach. I am looking into other schools now trying to see if I could graduate sooner. Something on the beach would be nice. It would be amazing to say that I lived really near the beach for at least two years of my life. Started a new job last week. Lets just say I will be practicing a lot of patience. I am taking care of a disabled man in his home about 20 hours a week. He likes to tell me how to do everything, well of course he would have to remind me how to vacuum...I have only been doing it for like 13 or so years. | | |
| Hi friends in Joplin!! I am coming back soon and look forward to seeing you all. Also, I will be looking for a job so please let me know if you hear of anything you think may interest me, and keep me in your prayers. Love to all, | | |
| Va is great....although it didn't start out that way. The job that brought me out here didn't work out. I don't think the family meant to be so dishonest but once I got here the job wasn't anything like they said it would be like. I was very disappointed and struggled a lot with whether or not I should stay with this family, but ultimately I decided that I really needed to take this time while being in VA to be happy and relaxed rather then miserable. So, I left.
I'm now living with the family that I previously nannied for before moving to Mo for school. This is home to me so I love it! This is where I really found myself some 4 years ago and it is nice to be here. I get to see my little girls almost everyday...I don't think there is anything that makes me happier than their laughter and love. They are precious!
I'm now nannying for a 7 year old little boy. He is so great. He is very charming and funny. So fun to be around. I just love being a nanny. I think that it is the second best job in the world. The first being a mother. Ever since I was a little girl I always dreamed about how fun and great it would be to be a mom...and although these children aren't mine, they are very close to my heart. I am having so much fun. Seriously who gets paid to spend all day at the pool and be able to show up in your pjs to work? It is great!
My friends and I haven't missed a beat. That is always relieving when you get to see the ones you love and you can pick up right where you left off. I am so blessed by so much love. Whether I'm in VA, MO or my home state of OR the memories are in my heart and I so blessed by the love, generosity, and graciousness of you all. God is wonderful and how great it is that he knows better then myself what I need.
Well...back to work....need to get ready for the pool :) | | |

| UGH! Is what I say right now. I am moving out of my apartment this weekend and finishing up school for the semester. Needless to say, it's busy time. Stress, pretty high....but God always provides a way for me to slow for a moment and enjoy Him. I went to the falls yesterday and had a relaxing time sipping coffee with Abby and getting sunburned. During this time of the year I am always reminded of how lazy I can be at times. Having a whole semester to do reading, now crammed into three days....what's that about? Anyway, just saying hi. | | |
