I love May!


Hola! So it's been kinda busy around here. Although work for the second job is at a stand still pretty much; budget cuts and activities slowing down for the summer so I haven't been working. Which has been kind of nice to have time to just be a total bum.


This past weekend was my birthday, big 2-7! I might be able to handle 28, but after that I would like to stop time. I'm pretty happy with life and don't wanna mess it up! haha Anyway, Ivan got me a new camera since I lost mine in Chicago and a new purse. We went out to eat at my favorite place, Yard House, and then out for drinks at Brookside, the regular place in Surprise (there's not many choices here!) But it's always a good time. We had about 25 people out between Jeff & I (Jeff's birthday was May 6th so we celebrate together). Great times.


Yesterday I also got to meet 2 of my teens that I've been paired with for River Rampage. They're sweet and seem like they are ready to do the work to earn this trip. I have one more to meet who couldn't make it yesterday. So now me & the other "sidekicks" are busy trying to come up with volunteer opportunities for the teens. A busy & exciting time, the trip is only a month away!


Ivan & I are off to New York on Friday to meet up with Heather & Stephanie who I met in Africa. So excited! I'm done with work on Thursday, yay summer!


No good news on the house front. Our house we've been waiting and waiting on, well the banks have now decided to just foreclose on it rather than accept a short sale! So stupid, they have nothing to gain, and thousands to lose by doing this. So we'll just continue to bid and look. We can always try to catch that house when it forecloses but hopefully we'll have something else by the time that happens!


Alrighty, check in after New York!


P.S.-- The pic is from my birthday night out last night :)
