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 :)

We Wish You A Merry Christmas (Dec 25)

  • Today was filled with a lot of love and happiness. This should be expected but I have come to enjoy the time leading up to Christmas more than the day itself over the past several years (or at least, that's how I feel until the day of). I was surprised (yet again) with a fantastic day with all of my family and some really fantastic presents. Mom got me a Kindle! Ben got me HIMYM 1 & 2 and Bananagrams! And there were lots of other great things from Erin, Collin, Dad and Barbara. I'm so so glad it was such a good day.
