I really appreciate the reaching out I've experienced from this blog. Many of you have commented or emailed me to ask what happened to me. This is some blog lovin' and I appreciate it! I've been here but not on the internet. I've been living my life and not writing about it. It's been pretty hard to get home and blog since my work schedule goes so late every night.
After my California trip I had my wisdom teeth pulled then I began a new job.

Then I had a week in Boston.

Then I graduated from college after 8 or 9 years.
This meant that my friends and family were in town.
Parties; my sister in law graduated, my aunt graduated and some other kids I know are graduating from high school.
Last weekend I ran/walked a ½ marathon.
It's been a VERY busy two months.
My goal is to write at least 3 times per week, I may have to tell you all about life in the suburbs on the weekends and then post them throughout the week so forgive me. Also, I haven't really been able to look at anyone else's blogs so I felt it wasn't really fair to keep expecting you all to be here reading mine. I'll try because I love this blog and I love you all!

 I know that I haven't update at all in two weeks but my life has been a whirlwind! I think that after you get a brief synopsis of my life you will forgive me.

Two weeks ago I finished up at my job at the High School and said "sayonara"! I am thankful for that job because it provided much needed income and when it wasn't enough, it forced me to work at the Retail Store. At the Retail Store I met a man who spoke of his wonderful job at the Dot Com. This man answered my questions and ultimately referred me to the Dot Com. After clawing my way into an interview, I had 2 more and then found myself hired (this process actually began in January).

After my final day at the High School, my husband and I hosted a party and then I boarded an airplane to California to visit my family. While in California, not only did I see my family, but I spent time with every person I have ever met, well, not really. I wish I had more time to see everyone but I did not have a moment to breath.

After I returned from California, my husband and I drove 9+ hours to Virginia to spend a weekend with my grandparents. Following our return from Virginia, I had four teeth removed from my mouth (wisdom teeth) and spent good parts of the next week in bed. The rest of the time I was working on taxes and paying (well, organizing) bills, hence the need for a job. When I wasn't in bed or working on paper work, I was visiting all of my other doctors (I decided to get as much out of the way while I could so that I didn't have to take time off of work for a while). Did I mention that 3 days after my teeth were pulled I had 2 fillings taken care of in the teeth that remained in my mouth?

Monday I started my new job at the Dot Com.

So, this is why I haven't updated. Can you find it in your heart to forgive me? If you do, perhaps there will be more details later…
