...I'm sitting here trying to think of some amazing events to tell you about, and I can't think of anything. Life has been pretty normal lately I guess. I am LOVING my job, there are so many good feelings that come when you're making better days every day. I don't think I ever really disclosed what i'm doing for work now, so I'll tell you. I'm working as the Director of HR for a place called Sandalwood Manor. Sandalwood is a long term care and rehab facility so yes, I work with the elderly on a daily basis. Now let me just clarify, this is NOT your regular nursing home. This is a place that truly is home, no fluorescent lights no telling residents what and when to eat or get out of bed it's truly a GREAT place! Heck, they even have happy hour every day where residents get to munch on munchies with a glass of wine or a beer or for some their daily gin martini! I'm telling you, this place is incredible and if I ever need to be in a home, this is where I'd want to be. I could ramble on forever but I won't because not everyone cares. Just know that I love my job and I love interacting with the residents, they make me laugh and that's a great thing on those tough days!
Five months until we're in Jamaica, WHAT!? Where in the world did time go? I'm not going to lie, i've been a little stressed out about the wedding and I have NO reason to be stressed the resort does everything for us! The hardest part about the destination wedding is that we do not decide on ALOT of stuff until we get there which makes it kinda tough. I'm a huge planner and game day decisions don't allow for me to "see" things and envision what the day will be like but heck this has been the easiest wedding planning ever. We're working on some small details that will make the day just a little better but besides that we get to sit back and watch time fly by.
I'll also admit that I have been VERY family sick lately. That's right not homesick, but family sick. There are days I wish I could just go laugh with my mom and sister over a few too many glasses of wine and make the worlds problems go away. There are days I wish that I could sit around a table with Jack and Carol and play cards for hours on end while having a few too many CC and Gingers. Watching Diddy cry from laughing so hard and some joke he played on most likely Mom. There are days it would just be nice to have my family around. I wish that all of us kids, my sister Kitina included could all just be together. But, this is what happens right? Family members and siblings go their own way and create their own lives? But what if it breaks my heart to think about having kids and them not knowing the GREAT family they have in VT? Not everyone can have such a perfect disaster of a family. Not everyone gets to have that family that can all get along even if there is ten "steps" and five "halves" in the family explanation. My family makes me happy. So here I sit with the best life ever in Colorado but the best family ever in Vermont--torn.
Just some pictures that I enjoyed looking at of some good times!
Anyways, long story short life is good! Just busy and looking forward to Vermont for Christmas!!!!! Hope all is well for you :)
