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 :)

All The Kids In Michigan

  • Today was a busy day at work, which was nice, because I was dreading going back and starting with a 10-hour day. I was in Evergreen most of the day but we listened to Gemini (a guitarist who comes in once a month) and then went on a walk around the park. We had tacos for lunch and there was lots of extras because the kids didn't really like them. Then I got to go into Willow for about 30 min before heading to Sycamore to join their walk to a Michigan Marching Band rehearsal :D THAT was really fun! Almost all the classrooms take a trip to a rehearsal in the fall and I've been hoping to go with one of them, but no luck til today. It was so fun to walk with the kids down there and then be there with them. Plus, it's way less creepy to attend a rehearsal with 20 children in tow than by yourself. AND (best part) I got to see Alex and Baron, and give/get big hugs :) It was also very cool to watch an MMB rehearsal. Maybe someday I'll coach college guard...
