- I got a new job. It's amazing and I love going to work every day. I work with wonderful people that save lives. Losing my previous job was a HUGE blessing in disguise. I am busy, but not traveling near as much, and HAPPY. And I love surgery. Even if they make me late/miss things because I can't "break scrub". I almost wish I would've gone to med school... and then I remember how hard biology was for me. :)
- Sam and I celebrated our one year anniversary. I should probably write a one year reflection post, but I'll just acknowledge it here in this quick update for now... I love him more and more every day. Seriously, words can't describe it.
- I repainted our kitchen! Hubby wasn't thrilled but I think my com paining got to him (seriously it was way to dark. It was a man cave color) and now it's in-your-face-bright. Pics to come -- there is one on my Instagram if you just can't wait...
- I made my first paid window treatment for a friend and it was gorgeous... so if this marketing thing doesn't work, I'll just make custom window treatments. Okay, just kidding. But it's still fun to do on the side.
- My Panera billboards I have been laying out are actually on billboards! I saw one on the way to Cleveland, on the way home from Knoxville, and Sam saw one outside of Nashville. Pretty awesome.
- My Grandmother turned 86 in March but she doesn't act her age at all, she is so feisty!
- Kali graduated fifth grade today and sang a solo at graduation! AND got the good Samaritan Award. I am so proud of her!
- Will got the "Most likely to say something nice" award and also the "Most Cheerful" award. I'm not surprised. He's precious and I am proud of him, too!
- We booked a vacation to Florida in July! WOOHOO!
- My friend gave me a BEAUTIFUL, registered, sweet, persian cat with a mashed in face for my Mom and she is SO happy. I love that kitten, too. And glad she wasn't for sale :) {Pics on Instagram}
- I'm obsessed with the song "22". No joke. My birthday weekend theme for the ATL celebration at the end of June. Get. Ready.
- I'll be 27 next month. HOLY. COW. Where does time go? I feel like I am still 22 (hence obsession with aforementioned song).
- I am so behind in my Project Life album. There. I said it. I'm going to to work on it and will show you the cute layouts that are stored up in my head right now. :)
- I've been working out like crazy and after I saw that wasn't cutting through the jiggle (literally) I started making healthier choices (most of the time). I am really seeing results now and it's great.
- I've run 3.25 miles in the last week (not all at a once, in one-mile intervals, usually) and didn't stop. My ankle swelled for two days after the 1.25 mile run but I made it, at least!
Basically, I am super blessed, busy, and happy. The Lord has been so good to me and I cannot thank Him enough for all of the blessings I have received in this season of my life. Yes, there have been some snags, but there's way too much good going on to get hung up on the little snags. God is good, all the time and I am so thankful.
