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 :)

Brave and Beautiful Soul (Feb 2)

  • Being able to see Phil, Kristin, Jane, Katie, Jason AND Charlie was truly the highlight of my day. I had made plans to hang out with Phil, Kristin and Katie, but Jason and Charlie were surprises :) Katie gave me a fantastic card, we got to see Phil and Kristin’s new house (so pretty) and Jason, Charlie and I chatted and played Dance Central (hello, workout).
  • Katie, Phil and Charlie all told me tonight that I’m brave for going to Korea and that they know I’ll do really great there. It was really nice to hear that – I will definitely remember it when I’m having a bad day or feeling particularly lonely.
