Work Update

SO, some exciting news if the word hasn't spread yet. I finally found a new job! I love my job at the Online Bookstore, but its a very negative atmosphere and I'm constantly getting yelled at or cursed at, so even though It's my dream job; I decided I'd leave. SO, things just went really well with life for me, and I got promoted to be Manager at Bath and Body works, after being there only 2 1/2 months! Isn't that incredible?! I'm sooo excited, I started my training tonight (its like 1230am! YAWN) and I go back at 9 tomorrow, and then work everday for the rest of my life! I'm excited to be able to pay all of my bills and not have to stress so much; and i get to be in a more positive environment. I think I'm going to work several hours a week at the Bookstore just to keep the reference, the free books coming in, and the extra paycheck. So theres my happy update! Lifes looking pretty good. OH, and Chads doing good, just studying his heart out everyday and night long, I'm soo proud of him. He just turned 27 yesterday! WOWZERS OLD! Haha, We are going Rockclimbing this Friday in Sacramento so I will put pictures up this weekend from that! Night!

Moms Surprise Birthday

Alright, so, I took a week vacation and went to Nebraska to visit my family and to surprise my mom for her Birthday. Thankfully my oh so gracious father paid for the ticket, without him it wouldn't have been possible. We all know I don't have that much money in the bank! (Unfortunately)... I had a blast, I hate visiting because It feels like I never left, and makes me not want to leave. I miss my family so much and I hate that Im missing my brothers growing up. Landon is almost 18, and Nic just turned 16. They both have cars, girlfriends and lives! I only remember them being 14 and 12! I feel like I'm missing out on so much, but I guess thats inevitable. Well, bottom line; I miss them sooo much! Mom has lost TONS of weight and looks absolutely incredible. Shes the prettiest person I've ever laid eyes on and I'm soooo lucky to call her my mother. Dad is doing good as always, still thinking hes 22 and running around like crazy, breaking bones and getting cuts! I also miss my friends, I met some amazing people during my stay in Nebraska and I miss them dearly. My best friend Stephanie lives there, and even though I've begged her to move her, and shes begged me to stay. We are still 3000 miles apart. I love this girl more than she could ever imagine; and I don't think she knows the positive HUGE impact shes had on my life. We just mesh me and Steph. Its something else.

Of Course, heres the silly one :
