Ok, it's for real this time

Hi friends,

It's time for a life update.  Let's just dive right in, shall we?

Work:  Going great.  I love the people I work with - never a dull moment.  I'm learning a lot about finances and quite enjoy a job that stays at the job site and doesn't spill over.  I miss teaching; I really do - I miss cute little kids, seeing them learn something new, laughing with them, crying at times - but I know this was a change for the better.  I'm happy, not overwhelmed and stretched to my very limit as I was before.  Maybe there will come a time where I will find myself again in the school system, but it won't be anytime terribly soon.

Play:  I'm working on some of those goals I mentioned a few posts ago and so far I'm doing well (on a few of them, anyway):  Two books to go in the Chronicles of Narnia read-a-thon, made a new friend this month, have a road trip planned in a few weeks (Disneyland, here I come!), discovered Mint.com - which is an extremely useful budgeting website, and the most exciting one......have a boyfriend.  Eek!

Personal:  I'm dating someone.  He's fantastic.  I like him.  And I think he likes me. 

Ok!  That's it for today's update on the life of a former school teacher/financial assistant extraordinaire!  Tune in next time for more exciting updates. 

Love,  Jeanette

I ate two chocolate cheesecakes.....

Oh, hey guys.  It's been far too long since I've posted anything.  And sorry to do this to you, but I'm not really in the mood to post right now, either.  Just wanted to leave you all with a little video that I think is hilarious at the moment.  Enjoy!  And you may get a for real post from me in the next week or so.  Maybe.
