Here's what you've missed...

Well, I haven't blogged in a long while but I have a good excuse. I have never been SO busy in my ENTIRE life. I'm exhausted ALL the time. Here's a brief run-through of what you've missed.

1. I started my internship. In fact, its a 75 day internship and I've only got 21 days left! :) It's going well but its been VERY overwhelming. Let's just say I've had to do my fair share of soul-searching AND reminding myself that I have endured 5 LONG years of college to get to this point and this is REALLY what I want to do with my life.

2. Cheerleading has taken on a life of its own and have hardly had a day go by where I didn't spend hours with my girls. I LOVE them. I LOVE the job. I'm VERY tired. It's great though. We have an AMAZING routine that we are taking to Regionals on November 6th. West Blocton has NEVER competed before and we are currently $6,000 into our $11,000 Nationals Fund-raising goal. It's been ALOT of hard work but our girls are AWESOME and its ALL going to be worth it when we get there! Regionals are in a couple of weeks at Sparkman High School in Huntsville and Nationals are in Disney World in February. :))

3. Josh got a new car a few weeks ago. It's a 2009 Honda Civic. It's white and really cute and sporty. He is loving it and I am SO happy for him. No one has ever deserved a new car like that man did. He's the best husband in the world. I'm VERY blessed and couldn't be more appreciative of that blessing from God.

4. Unfortunately there are NO history jobs posted in the state of Alabama for December that are remotely close to home. :( I was truly hoping for someone to retire just in time HOWEVER I have a back-up plan. When I left the bookstore in August for my internship, I remained on the payroll so that I could come back when I was done. I am going to start back to work at BAM the week of Thanksgiving and I am moving up to a managment position which will pay more and give me more hours. I have kind of missed the bookstore so I'm looking forward to being back before Christmas this year. I am just going to PRAY my heart out that a history job will come open here at the high school for next year and that I will get the job. I wouldn't mind if you want to drop a prayer for me too! :)

--That's really all that is new with us right now. I am graduating on December 18th at 2:00. I have NEVER been more excited in my life! It is a feeling like I've never had before. I will update you again soon! :))
