a busy week and a half...

Well, since its been about a week and a half since I last posted, I figured it was about time! BIG NEWS: I have moved into my new apartment! A big shout out to Mom and Tracy who helped big time, and carried lots of heavy things up the stairs! I absolutely LOVE my new place, and I really would love to show it to you all, so if you are ever in Tacoma please call. I will post new pictures soon, but I am not as slick at posting pictures as Kara, so we'll see...

I also am now full swing into my classes. I turned in my first paper last thursday (yikes!) and I have another one due next week. I am a little nervous to get my first once back, because I just don't know how my writing measures up to what they are expecting.

Work is going alright... my program STILL hasn't started, and i'm starting to get pretty frustrated. I am doing a bunch of stuff for NLF and ProTeen, but I have yet to actually go out to Mt. Tahoma. I guess the school district is taking forever to finalize the contract, so I am very eagerly awating the day when that happens. I just don't really feel like I am doing anything that substantive, which kind of sucks because that's what I signed up for. After more than a month, I am pretty ready to get going... That's why I can sit here at work and write my blog, because I don't really have anything better to do! :-)

I really like all of the people i'm working with, and tomorrow we are going on a little ProTeen retreat. We're going out to SoundView and we're going to do the ropes course. I'm excited, because I haven't been out there in over 2 years, which is so sad because I spent the majority of my life from ages 8 and 20 out there! I can't wait to take my coworkers out to a place that is really special in my life.

That's it for now... off to drink some (more) coffee... :-)

Well we can't all be as good at posting pictures as I am ;-)
I'm sorry to hear you're frustrated with work, but hang in there I'm sure things will heat up! Sounds like you're keeping quite busy anyway. That's always good. I love you and miss you my friend. Keep updating!
