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 :)

Change Is Gonna Come (Aug 11)

  • Finished teaching my girls the opener today! They like the work a lot and I think it will look good on the field :) Also, I put in a super cute arm thing at the end of the 2nd number, which I love.
  • I left my dumb computer at the school and didn't realize it until I got to my apartment. GAH!!! I need to stop doing this! I drove back and got it. It was really frustrating and I think I was in the car for 2.5 hours instead of 40 min...but I did get gas, vinegar for my coffee maker and a jamocha shake.
  • I'm frustrated about not being able to find someone to help/replace me at Farmington. I don't want to leave my girls with just anyone.
  • I wish I had lots and lots of money to buy flags.
  • Today was the last time that I drove from the apartment to Farmington. It was a lot sadder than I would have expected.
  • I'm tired of change.
