Yes I am Alive

So much has been going on that I don’t know where to begin.

We have finally started hitting our slow time at work. The leads have started slowing down and yet I still don’t have any down time. I have so many little projects to take care of before things pick up again. I’m still back on forth on whether I should stay here when I am done with school. I think I am ready for a change but at the same time with the way the economy is the smart choice would be to stay here where I have some stability.

I’ve decided to take 3 classes this module since two of them are simple. Why they are making me take a class for people just starting college is beyond me. I kept telling them that I am almost done but they say it s a required class so I guess I will just go along with it. Our assignment this week is to spell check a paper and then to write about our favorite vacation. Sounds hard doesn’t it. I also am taking a critical thinking class and then my general accounting class.
I

found out that if I can get all the classes that I need to (there is one that they are not sure when it is going to be offered) I will be done with school 3 days before my birthday. Woohoo. That would be the best birthday present ever.

I kept saying when I graduate I was going to restore a car. However, the cars I want to restore are a little on the pricey side. I haven’t looked a whole lot into it though. Maybe I will be able to find a really good deal on one.

Camille and I have decided to put aside the café for now since the economy is going to pot. We are going to see about opening it next year if the economy is doing better. We are however going to start working on sandboards. We were telling my dad about it and he was all gun ho to help up out. Very odd for him because he is usually so pessimistic about all of our ventures. We are planning on starting really small and he wants us to start bigger than we are planning on which is really weird. I think we were both pretty stunned when he was taking out ideas and expanding on them. This will probably be a good bonding experience for us all.

Camille was telling me about this African ritual to get a man. It sounds quite interesting and the lady at her work who gave it to her said it has a 100% success rate. I thought about doing it. In fact, I have the paper sitting on my desk. I’ve decided though that I don’t want to find my soul mate right now. Maybe I am scared but for right now I think there are other things that I want to focus on. There are dreams and ambitions that I want to do before I settle down. Maybe I will do it when I get done with school and I actually have time to devote to finding Mr. Right. I know I know procrastination is a tool of the devil. :o)

Oh Wait I have hard things (first times) to report on:

1) Ate shrimp for the first time…not a fan of the texture and I am still supporting my theory that things that started out grey should not be eaten.
2) Actually got some money back.
3) Went to several functions with my single’s ward
4) My first niece was born!

There were more but I can’t remember what they were.
