I'm not unemployed anymore - I actually have a very fabulous job as a preschool teacher with the University of Michigan child care centers. But I'm still posting, albeit a little more irregularly, and I don't want to ignore the personal progress I've made since starting this blog by renaming it.

Blog inspiration: I read 48 States in 48 Days by Paul Jury in the summer of 2011. It was fabulous...although he planned way less for his roadtrip than I would have. And at the same time, my lovely Anna was constantly reminding me that our lives were awesome, despite the fact that we didn't have job prospects, new cars, boyfriends/husbands, houses, etc., like so many people we knew. So, in an effort to appreciate my life and the crazy uncertainty that it is, I started writing this blog about the little adventures I have. (And by "writing a blog," I mean "making a list" because I make lists, not narratives.) Even if there isn't a BIG adventure that happens every day, I try to find at least one thing to list :)

Sugar, Sugar

  • Finished painting the house! We are awesome painters.
  • Uncle Gene likes to talk so we listened to him tell us about his new John Deere and his 12 other tractors. Also, we chatted about gas prices...he said that when he was little, his dad couldn't even put a dollar worth of gas in the car, because it only had a 10-gallon tank and gas was only $.10/gallon!
  • Ice cream at Paw Paw's Sugar Bear, followed by X-Men with Carlee and my dad.
