My Oh My, So much to catch you up on...

Well, as the title suggests, there is a lot to catch everyone up on.
Number 1- yes, I am still alive and well, and have not posted on here in close to a month. Lots has happened...I ended up almost totally losing my travel journal on the side of a Denver highway, spent an awesome time out west, classically I missed my flight leaving Vegas (which was actually great fun), climbed a few peaks and saw the beautiful Rockies, had an interview at a modeling agency (we will have to see how that goes), gotton my haircut, suprisingly didn't overstuff myself at thanksgiving for once although there was more than enough food for me to get super uncomfortably feeling like I need to never eat again if I had pushed it, went Black friday shopping all night literally (went to the mall at midnight and didn't return until 705am), got a yorkie to finally like me and find the motivation I need for the month I will be home in December to get my butt in a routine that I cannot break for I now have a "super motivation" not to be revealed unless it comes true, and if it doesn't there are always second chances and other things to substitute in for my superior motivation...yes, some of it is more entertaining than other things, but enough to keep me on my toes and definitely enough that my adventures are not at all near a hault and my spirits are still soaring high.

I do miss my water crew and homerites, but I will indeed see them all soon!

I will have to catch you up skipping along, touching here and there...where was the last place I left off? I will have to check, but I can at least tell you about Atlanta so far.

I got here the night before Thanksgiving, and my aunt picked me up from the airport- it is a little wierd to think that I haven't seen her part of the family in a few years...my how time flies! The "kids" as I still call them are all grown up (I know, what am I- 45?) haha. Coty's already 19 and going into the Navy next week, and Shelby is 13 alread- homeschooling and in grade 7... We had a delicious feast full of turkey, potatoes, rutabega (one of my favorites now), cranberry sauce, stuffing, green bean cassarole...I know I am forgetting a few items....pumpkin pie :)

The next day consisted of sleeping in, watching movies... Friday night Elana picked me up and I got to see more towards downtown Atlanta. Went out and hung out all weekend- had a blast, met some cool people...also met a dog that I absolutely love and if it wasn't illegal I would totally love to take him home with me...or maybe I could just ask to borrow him for a while lol.

When I got home sunday I don't think I have slept this much after such a short period of time in forever (aka in Vegas I was up a lot but my energy pushed through and I didnt catch up on sleep I felt until I was in Colorado a week later..but one weekend and I was out). I slept 2 1/2 hours in the afternoon, fell asleep after dinner for about 2 hours, then was in bed by 1100 and then didn't get up until 1230 the next morning! Hahah. I guess I really needed it- maybe to catch up on the last 3 months of my life finally i just crashed :)

I'd rather though live my life with little sleep especially while I am traveling and in areas that i haven't been before- fully enjoyong them and not sleeping my time there away, and I am in GA for a few weeks so a day or two to fully catch up and recouperate is but a small sacrifice and a well deserved "treat" even.

I have had an interview here, I will see if I get booked for an event, but I have a feeling it went well and I got a good vibe from the agency.  Also, I found a rec position I am applying for, and also am planning on making some lesson plans to see if I would be able to teach a few rec classes as well!  I would love it!

Out west is absolutely beautiful by the way.. the mountains, the skylines, the think elevation air- in which it is quite a new experience to have a tasty brew being a mile or more up from sealevel/ where I am used to!

Ok, I will def be catching this lovely blog up soon...but tonite, after the battle I had with the employment history page and not being able to move the order, having to erase and retype the sequence twice and having the website decide it would be appropriate to play a practical joke on me and switch all the dates I put in on me, I have pretty much had all I can take with typing tonite. I know right, I wrote kinda a lot for being tired of computers- I just decided that I couldn't wait any longer to post a little something for "all of my followers" (Which I finally found out why no one can post on here...you need to sign up for a google account- I know, it's kinda stupid- another marketing ploy to gain more members I'm assuming....but if you have an extra 5 minutes and are bored at work, make one just so you can leave me some love please :) *Hint!!
