Things That Are Good

I'm trying to be a more positive person for Lent. If you know me, well, you know that there are times that I can be down or a bit angry, even. I try to contain my feelings, but at a certain point, things just boil over. One of the most helpful things that anyone ever told me was that I have a terrible poker face! I always thought I was holding in my feelings, but in reality, my face was telling on me!

Anyway.. Right now, I'm focusing on the positives. I really enjoy my classes, much more than I ever imagined that I would.

Stacey and I WILL be going to the UK this summer, and that's not the University of Kentucky, baby! We are going to ENGLAND! I am so excited that I can't even explain.

Between all the good things going on, it's really tough to focus on such meaningless stuff when I watch the pictures from the earthquake in Chile. What can you do about an 8.8 earthquake? Nothing!

Hope everyone has a good day! I'm going to have a great dinner with my hubby, watch some basketball, and snuggle with my puppy!

Well..

Today was a pretty good day, honestly. I think this new job could be great. I hope he decides I'm worth the effort. I was really tired and had a headache, but I felt like I was able to converse with him fairly easily about regulatory even! I felt good about it!

Fingers crossed... This will work out! :)

Not wanting to get ahead of myself, but....

Some good things might be coming my way soon. I don't want to be disappointed, but depending on what I hear on Wednesday, I might be changing jobs and leaving the lab. How do I feel about that? Well, this is tough for me. I really do like my job right now. But, I started school because I wanted a career change. Something that will advance my career and also give me the opportunity to make more money. I think Regulatory Affairs is extremely interesting, but I'm so scared about leaving the lab!

All I can think is...

What if I hate this? What if I am TERRIBLE at this? What if the job bores me to tears?

Anyway.. I have a lot of decisions to make in the next week or two. We'll see what happens.

As far as weather goes, we've warmed up a bit, but I think winter will be making it's last stand in the next coming week or two. The temperature is supposed to drop again, and perhaps we might see some more snow. I think by mid-March we should start seeing some severe, and I can go on my first spotting/chasing expedition! I can't wait! I hope it happens on a day when I can go outside and play in the weather!

Been a long time, been a long time!

Well, it has been awhile. I promised not to ignore my little bloggy blog, but, alas, it has happened. Let's see here.. Last time, I was talking snow! We've had TWO significant snowfalls since that last event! One added up to be around 3.5 inches! Amazing!

I attended spotter training class. That was all kinds of fun. I wish Stacey could have been there, because the people watching was better than going to Walmart at 2am. The people were generally nice, though, and I learned a lot more than I thought I would. I thought I knew it all! HA!

School is getting tough, as it tends to do in the middle of the semester. I'm sure my posts will be few and far between.

I'm ready for spring time so I can get out there for real instead of just talking about a chase. If I hate it, at least I tried. I hope I love it!
