Random updates from my world:
(1) My social life is still active on Facebook, though I did go through and delete all the friends who I didn't really know. Amazingly, that was only about 25 people.
(2) We are thinking of buying a house. Well, we have gone one step further than that and have given notice to our apartment complex that we're moving out at the end of July. This is SO exciting to me. And so scary, too. How will we know which house to pick? There are so many choices! But it will be nice to have a home that feels more permanent. Maybe I'll even decorate (ha!).
(3) We went to our first Roller Derby meet. We stood rink-side and it was awesome! We are so thankful for our friends who introduced us to this sport. I want to go again. Have you gone? It's a big time in Nashville! Sell-out crowds! Does anyone want to go roller skating with me? I promise not to slam you.
(4) I'm suffering from running injuries. It's totally annoying. I feel a million years old. I went to see an awesome doctor and it got a little better, but not completely better. Staying healthy as a runner seems to be a lot of work.
(5) I did a tiny bit of HTML work on my church website. Tricky, but hilariously fun. But not fun enough to do more. One time was all I needed to feel a great sense of accomplishment. I am still congratulating myself.
(6) We're really into playing Settlers of Catan. We are joking that we need to have two kids so that we can play this game all the time without needing to have people over. It's that addicting! People might have kids to flesh out their home team!
(7) I have a new job. Sadly, my sweet boss left our company and my position was eliminated. Happily, a new position was found for me. I am amazingly thankful and having a blast learning all sorts of new things (and new acronyms!).
(8) Summer is here. We haven't planned any vacations. It's weird. What will we do? Where will we go? Must. Have. Summer. Fun.
(9) I have an iphone, and I love it. I read lots of books on it and can't believe how much I love an ebook. Never thought I would. Proved myself wrong (again).
(10) Sparkly Wednesday is still a phenomenon. We have a group on Facebook. It's 200-members strong. Join the sparkle-ution!
(10+1) I am so proud of myself for coming up with a new screen name based on my initials: LMR. My new screen name is Elemar (for the slow among us, El = L, em = M, ar = R). I also thought of LMKR = Elemkayar, but that's long and looks like an abbreviation for Elementary Kayaker. Try it with your initials! It's fun!
I have had flashes of blog ideas in my head. What else is new? But I haven't sat down to flesh them out yet. What else is new? The ten-plus-one-point update is a start. Hope you're well. Much love. Miss you.
