My apologies to everyone for me being so neglegent...especially to Kristie!
Where have I been lately!! I'm getting really bad about coming here to actually update. The thing is I spend the ENTIRE day at my computer at work and most days I just don't feel like updating. It's been almost a month since my last post...lets see what has been going on with me...
Not a whole lot really. My sister got engaged a few weeks ago so I've been trying to get the ball rolling with that since I'm her maid of honor I really want to start the planning early so that there is less stress later on. They are planning on a November 2007 wedding so they've got a little over a year to plan.
I'm leaving for Grand Rapids, Michigan tomorrow morning. For that conference I was talking about a few posts ago. Its with work. I'm looking forward to it and dreading it at the same time. I think it will be fun though. And the big party night with the open bar is on my birthday so they told me we'll definitely be "celebrating". :) Haha...anyway, I've been running through my house like a mad person trying to get all my clothes thrown together this evening...I finally have everything packed except for what I'll use in the morning...
Earlier today Caleb and Michael and I went to Tuscola to check out their Candy Kitchen up there. It was a lot of fun. And I was CRAVING a real fountain coke. O...M....G it was sooo good. I love them. The food was not too bad. I was hoping it was going to taste a lot like what we had but it was still good. I bought a ton of candies for everyone at home, which are 500 times better than what we ever sold b/c you tell its homemade-homemade not homemade from a mix like we had...but I was so full I couldn't get any ice cream which bummed me out a little bit so we decided to go to the outlet mall and walk it off and come back later. I got a ton of deals at the mall, btw, anyway, then we went back and got some ice cream and it was AWESOME.
I actually told the women who own the place that we worked at the one here in town...kind of just wanted to let her know I thought everything was great and that they are doing such a better job than we were EVER doing and that's why she's still open. MMM mmm...We're gonna have to go back with Jeffrey and Kristie [who couldn't come b/c they had a wedding up by Chicago :'( ]!!!
My press release was finally sent out to all the papers announcing me at my new job....let me tell you it's really anoying when all the big papers in other towns publish your story but then your hometown, heck no paper in your COUNTY publishes it!! It wasn't in the Greenup Press or the Toledo Demacrat...at least I didn't see it! But I've still had a lot of people congratulate me and say they saw me in a different paper. But I'll tell you what was really cool...on the opposite page of the press release about me was an ad I had desined for the Mod 2 8-Week classes...even though no one knew I designed that its still so cool to me that I get to see that. I know I mentioned that before but I just love seeing something actually in print and not just on my computer screen. It's a great feeling...
Anywho, I think that I'm gonna go and make sure I've got everything I need for this trip!! Take care!!
