i love my sister...



We have so much fun together, and I'm convinced I wouldn't like living in Moscow so much if she weren't here.

NEW POST! FINALLY!

So sorry it's been such a long time since my last post! I got a terrible head cold on the second to last day of our trip, and finally feel like a normal human again. The head cold wasn't just the normal "change of seasons" cold that I usually get - no, this one involved fevers and fainting... no good. But I'm on the mend, and just in time, too!

Because of going on vacation last week, Bran and I needed to scrounge up some extra bill money. In a crazy effort to do so, I'm working two shifts today - I went in at 7:00 this morning and worked until 1:30pm, and go back in at 5pm and will probably work until 9ish. Crazy! But lots of hours = lots of tips!

I'm so glad I was smart last night and this morning - it made work a breeze. I went to bed at 10, and got up at 6 to take a shower and eat breakfast before I went to work. It was so nice to have some extra time to get ready rather than trying to get up and run out the door!

Alright time to take a nap and maybe watch some Grey's Anatomy with Jen before my next shift.

post later?

This is another one of those "I'll post later" posts.

I know that you hate them (mom and Karen, I apologize!) but i'm way too tired to post right now. When I do, I'll include pictures from our trip, and some I took of Bran and I with our dogs.

Love!

Why the bad rep for in-laws?

Mine are fantastic. Bran's computer died a few weeks ago, and not only did Jeff get it fixed, he's also giving us a new one to replace mine. Karen surprised me today with a copy of "Mrs. Beeton's Book of Household Management" which I mentioned in a post a few weeks ago. And on top of it all, they're giving us an excuse to have Spring Break! I'm so blessed to have such wonderful people in my life. I love you all! :)

In-laws, trips to the coast, and making our own Spring Break

Bran's family gets in today, which means that I don't think I'll have much time to post this next week. They're all on Spring Break, and so Bran and I decided to make our own Spring Break to hang with them. We're taking off work next week to go on a 3 day road trip with Jeff, Ty, and the girls (Karen will be in NC at a basket weaving convention). We're super excited about the trip, which might include staying in Seattle the first night, then driving down to Oregon, and possibly hitting Portland - I'm glad I'm spontaneous and easy going when it comes to travel, or the trip might drive me insane!

I hope everyone has a great week!
