Merry Christmas, everyone! This has been such a relaxing Christmas this year! Last weekend Jennifer and Brad had Christmas and had a huge dinner. We played dirty Santa and it was fun because I have never played that game before. I came out of the game with a snow man candle, and was glad for it because some of the gag gifts, well were just not ( Read more... )

February 17, 2007, Columbus Ohio, whatever arina! I will be watching, the man! I wasn't sure if I was going to get to go, but I called my cousin's best friend's fiancé and she wants to go! Columbus is about 2 hours, and that is too far for a lot of people for a concert, but she's almost as obsessed as I am, though I admit I don't know if anyone ( Read more... )

I wanted to let everyone know that I did it. I chopped 12 inches off of my hair and donated it to locks of love. My hair was pretty far down the middle of my back, and 12 inches made it a couple of inches above my shoulders, but at the moment I really like it. When she cut it off in a ponytail and pulled it away this huge weight was just lifted ( Read more... )

Today I got to work and overheard a conversation about Mark interviewing Richard Paul Evans the author of The Christmas Box, one of my favorite books. So naturally I got all star crazy and begged Mark to let me meet him. I got to meet him and got his autograph. He seems to be a really nice guy, you never know how they are really going to be.

So it's only my third week of work and I am already sick. Luckily I was able to make it through the week, though for most of it with no voice. Mom got me a Dr. appointment at 4:45 yesterday afternoon because I couldn't talk. Thank goodness it was my favorite doctor. She took one listen of my chest and said it's bronchitis early pneumonia.

I started my job on Monday. So far I am still in training with the previous volunteer coordinator, but I am learning a lot. I am really going to enjoy it, though it is going to take a lot of work to organize the files in a way that I can understand. I have met some of my volunteers and they are very nice. Monday was lots of fun! It rained all ( Read more... )

Tomorrow I begin my new job as Volunteer Coordinator. I am excited and a bit nervous. Today I went to a Volunteer Appreciation luncheon, and while it felt overwhelming because the room was huge and the acoustics were awful and I really didn't know that many people I also had a wonderful feeling in my heart that I am finally where I need to be for ( Read more... )
