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 :)

Last Leaf

  • Today we woke up very lazily, watched a funny spy movie with Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz in it, called Knight and Day, and ate toast with peanut butter :)
  • Then, we dropped Julie at the terminal and headed to church for Amos’ last service. It was sad to see him go, both as a friend and as a big part of the church. It was also the last time that I was able to see Cordelle, as he is going home to Missouri for the summer and won't return until after I leave. I’m praying it's "See you soon" and not “Goodbye” for both of them.



  • And I played with Lynn, which is always fun.
 



 
Oh, and I have beautiful friends :)

  • After church, we went to a fabulously hidden Italian place downtown to celebrate Ingrid’s birthday. It was ADORABLE! And the food was really good. Too expensive for every day dining but great for a celebration.
