Yay for Weekends

This past spring I quit the job I had been working at for the past 3 1/2 years. So thankful another job opportunity came up and I was able to quit! There were many different reasons why I felt that way but a major one was that I had to work Saturdays and Sundays pretty much every week. This got pretty darn tiring after awhile. (Especially on Sundays because I would practically have to run out of church). Fortunately the office I'm at now is only open Mon-Fri.

This leaves my weekends wide open now and I love it! Almost every Saturday I wake up and am grateful to have a full day ahead of me without any work in sight. Today was no different and I had a fantastic day with my sister, Lydia. She made an omelet for me :), we went on a nice, long walk, made a peach pound cake together, and did a little shopping.

...and of course I had to end the day with a piece of cake.

Changing Seasons

Um oops...I suppose now that I have a blog I should use it. Anyway...over the past 5 weeks or so I have been taking an online class for college and just finished it up today. It was an anatomy class and without a doubt my favorite classes to take are anything related to the medical field and how our body works. It's sort of unbelievable how intricately we were created!

Summer is quickly coming to a close and I actually could not be more excited. I've always been ready for school to start and anxiously look forward to it most years. I'm strange that way I suppose. Actually just yesterday my dad asked me, "You aren't going to become one of those forever student, are you? Always continuing on in school and never getting a job." Ha, no I'm not going to be a "forever student". Don't tempt me though ;)

Also, the weather these past few days has been amazing after an extremely hot July. It is like a little preview for the cooler months that are coming. Fall, please come soon!

Oh yeah...I got to meet this cute little guy this week:

Finally!

So...I finally took the plunge and created my own blog! I've been reading them for over two years now and am quite excited to have my very own. I hope to use this space to share what I find beautiful, inspirational and enjoyable in my life. I think it will include a bit of everything :) There is way too much negativity in this world and I am slowly learning that if you want to enjoy life you have to make an active effort to find the positivity and joy. I hope my blog will reflect that.

At the moment I'm simply trying to figure out how everything works on here! It could take me a little while...anyways, if anyone happens to stumble across this...hello!
