UPDATE CORNER!  Updated: Jan 16

Happy New Year!!
Hello again everyone!

Sorry updates are so far between... But, good news!  My computer is back and healthy once again!  And my hard drive space was doubled.  I don't think they make 20 gig drives for laptops anymore... heh.

Thursday, January 14th marked my FIRST day as a SUBSTITUTE!  Weee!  I worked in a first grade classroom and.... well, had SOME fun.  Hehe.  The teacher was gone again Friday, so I got TWO days!  Yay!  Money!  Experience! ^_^

Mom is on a cruise at the moment.  Lucky her!  She, her mom and her three sisters are all enjoying themselves (hopefully!) on a Royal Carribean Cruise!  I'm quite jealous. >.<  But, very happy for her and I hope she is having a blast!

Jeremy and I spent our winter break 'touring America'...  We drove about 3000 miles!  From Kansas to Missouri, to Ohio, to Michigan, to Iowa... then back to Kansas. ^_^  It was quite a trip--but very  nice because we got to see so many friends and family. ^_^  And we got lots of wedding planning done, too!

Well, that's about it for now.  I'll try to get more done soon!
Thanks again for stopping by!!
