Hello!

Long time no write :) My computer has been on the fritz, hopefully I'll get it fixed tonight so for now I'm using my friend's computer. The trip home was good, but so quick! Friday night I went out with some friends, Saturday I had the wedding, Sunday was my nephew's birthday party and then I came back here on Monday.

The weather has been nice, actually it rained yesterday for about the first time in like 4 months or something. It was great!! I miss rain! It's been around 70 I think lately.

Work is good. I'm beginning to wonder where I will be in the fall. If the need was there I think I would stay where I am right now. I'd like the opportunity to move closer to the coast but if I can't, I'd stay here. I'm enjoying my job more lately, I think because I have been putting more effort into it.

Ivan's good. He might be looking for a new job soon though. He's getting frustrated with his because of his co-workers. As you know, he works with some trouble-making kids and he doesn't feel like his co-workers are helping the kids at all, he feels like he's the only one who's really doing anything, and that's not enough...hopefully he finds something better or finds a way to be happy with his job. We'll be car shopping for him here pretty soon. His car is about to give out, I can't believe it's made it this long, so wish us luck with that. Hopefully the car will last until we find the car & money for a new one!

What else...oh yeah, I've got my personal trainer and she's kicking my butt into shape. It's been about 2 weeks and I'm already starting to see some subtle differences. I probably won't post any pictures of me for awhile because I want to surprise everyone when I come home (if there's a big change!) ha!!!

Oh, Megan, my friend who lives with us now started her job yesterday. She's working as a personal assistant for an internet porn star!!!!!!! How fun!! So she just does whatever the woman needs her to do-- run errands, take other porn stars home to L.A. after a shoot (crazy!) and answer fan mail!! I'm so jealous just because I think it would be fun.

Alrighty, talk to you all later! Oh yeah, I think I won't be home again until the summer...will keep you posted :)

I'll Be Home Tomorrow!

So here's the agenda, arrive in Bloomington around 8:30, head to Pit Row, Saturday is a wedding, Sunday is Clayton's birthday party and I leave on Monday...hope to see you all!

Valentine's Day

So instead of going out to eat or anything I told Ivan to make me dinner...and since I'm trying to eat healthy I told him to just pick something with chicken, turkey or fish out of my friend Breigh's "light cooking" cook books. So last night, Breigh & Ivan made dinner-- we had honey glazed salmon, brown rice, and broccoli with champagne. Later we had this mint pie that Breigh made. It was all very yummy! And I'd never tried salmon, rice or broccoli (pretty pathetic I know) so I was little scared but it was all really good :) So here's some pics!

First Meal...

Ok, you all know me, you know that I don't cook anything at all...never have, besides like pizza, mac & cheese...anything microwaveable...things like that :) Well anyway, I'm trying to eat better so tonight I made me first meal ever. Well Ivan really had to tell me what to do every step of the way but I did it... so I had chicken tenderloins and threw some cut up red potato on there and covered it in lemon paper-- very delish I must say. So anyway, here's a pic of it! And I swear it's better & more filling than it looks!
