So I ended up being sick for pretty much the whole 2 weeks that I had off. I started coming down with a cough the week before x-mas and then it got really bad on 12/23. It was one of those coughs where it keeps you up at night and is one of those deep, loud ones that feels like you are going to cough up a lung. Around January 1st I ended up ( Read more... )

I'm not a huge sports fan, but each year I'm always excited for early May when it's Derby time! Some years there are not that many horses that I know of or are excited about, but this year there are a few for each race that I'm hoping will win. Below are my favorites and picks (in no particular order).

Oaks:

• Untapable - Sire is Tapit and three ( Read more... )

2013 in a nutshell has been a great year. I haven't updated as much as I have wanted to, mostly because of how busy I have been. Work has been going well and this past year we have hired three new staffing team members. One of the best things about our team is how well everyone gets along. We have a great vibe in the office and it feels like we are ( Read more... )

Last week my company celebrated 20 years in business. It was a big event, as we held an open house for all of our local clients, candidates, and friends one night. Plus we also flew in all of the remote employees for a couple of days.

Thursday 4/25From 5:00-7:30PM we held an open house at our office. We spent about a month planning the event, ( Read more... )

Yesterday I drove up to Davis for their Spring Career Fair. I've been taking the lead at work with career and job fairs, so I decided to check out the one at UCD since I never went during my actual time at college. I was planning to go up with a co-worker, however the fair is only for current students and alumni so I had to go by myself. I left ( Read more... )

This year has pretty much been flying by. I can't believe it's already April. Work has been super busy, pretty much since December last year, but it's the "good" kind of busy. A lot of changes have happened with the company in terms of structure, dynamics, and business. We are also making a lot of revenue now since the direct hire side of the ( Read more... )

I got my Kindle about one year ago, however I didn't really use it for reading in the beginning. It was more of something to browse the internet with and watch movies or TV shows on. However, in the last few months I have started to download Kindle books from Amazon because ( Read more... )

Today is pretty much the same as any other day... Go to work and then come home in the evening. Since it's a weekday and I don't like being out late when I have work the next day, I will be having dinner with my parents tonight. It's actually a good thing, since I know restaurants are very busy on V-Day. Don and I are planning a nice dinner ( Read more... )

Wow. It's hard to believe how much my life has changed this past year ( Read more... )

This past weekend I had another successful shopping trip at the Old Navy at the Great Mall. They have this flannel lounge pant that I've had my eye on for some time in this cute sheep pattern. Each time I'm at an Old Navy they never have it in my size! So this past trip I looked through the rack as I always do and didn't see anything in an XS. As I ( Read more... )
