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 :)

I Slipped, I Stumbled, I Fell

  • Happy March!
  • Today, I slipped on ice and fell onto my right side. Twice. I scraped and re-scraped my right hand and will most certainly have bruises and/or sore spots on my elbow, hip and knee for the next several days. Ouch. (Oh and the first time, I was carrying my lunch, which had my yogurt in it, which had an unbeknownst-to-me-loose lid...so that exploded all over my lunch box.) The kids were very interested in my bandaged hand. Will (the one that calls me "Eh-moo") told me that it's alright, he'd make it feel better and then blew on my hand several times :) Eden told me her dad could fix it :) Jeremy asked me "Why did you fall?" so many times that eventually I just wanted to shout, "BECAUSE GRAVITY HATES ME!" I didn't though. Don't worry. Ah well. The best remedy for all this pain and suffering? A weekend with/at the Eischeids, where I'll get to see Krystle and which will be concluded with a visit from my dad :)
