Wow, it’s been longer than I had planned since I last posted. Sorry!! You’d think being unemployed and all I’d be posting up a storm, but sadly, that doesn’t seem to have been the case. Here’s what I’ve been up to lately:
- job applying (temp places for the summer and teaching jobs for the fall)
- taking trips to Ankeny to first see my very pregnant sister, and then my new baby niece!!
- cleaning my room and bathroom at home from top to bottom, and donating tons of stuff
- sorting, organizing, and backing up the millions of photos I took this year
- enjoying living 25 miles from my boyfriend instead of 5000
- eating delicious meals at my grandparents’
- catching up with friends that I haven’t seen for nearly eight months
- playing my dad in backgammon, and mostly losing
- trying to catch our five baby kittens that live under the front steps
- feeding our four bucket calves (and chasing them when moving them to a different field…)
- hanging out with my cousins that both live right up the road
- eating delicious food like colby jack cheese, peanut butter, Kraft mac n cheese, my mom’s lemon chicken, my grandma’s spaghetti, Jamaican seasoned pork patties, Mexican food (particularly Chipotle and Diamond Dave’s), and homegrown asparagus
