Feel Good Inc.

*Sigh*Lets see. Visited Denver with mom start of the month to see JWU- it's pretty awesome. Did a general campus tour, then a few days later was able to do a class shadow- artisan breads and something else- again pretty amazing. They made zuchinni and banana bread, walnut curant (sp?) bread, honey wheat rolls, and focaccia bread with herbs, spinach, onions, and tomatoes- amazingly delicious. Look forward to going there for the next two years- hopefully finances will allow it. Please God :) We were there six days, so the other four we bummed around that area of colorado and perused downtown denver.

Started and finished what was supposed to be a six hour afghan, took five days due to work and school. Size 50 needles, and four strands of bulky knitted at the same time, and 2.5 skeins of each yarn color. Turned out pretty cool so I'm excited for winter, yes winter, to use it to stay warm.

Last weekend, headed down to ohio to take bekah to Winter Jam in Cincinnati. We arrived with plenty of time, but I made a wrong turn and we ended parking across the bridge in Kentucky- lucky us parking was only $3 as opposed to $20 on ohio side and it was fun to walk in the nice weather. So we waited in line for bout 30 to 45 minutes. Got to the door and had to finish off almost my entire water bottle- bout 28 oz.- but I snuck in a starbucks canned drink and some gold fish :) We got in and headed to the nose bleed area, but looking at the stage the area on the left had almost no one in it. We ended up being three rows away from the stage and right by all the equipment and pyro stuff for Skillet :D It ended up being a pretty awesome night. We got out of cinci pretty good, until I stopped in Xenia to get gas. Well, xenia's about 10 miles outside where we needed to be. I got us lost and wandered around that area for bout 30 minutes. Thank goodness bekah had picked up a map at a gas station earlier, and she got back to school 3 minutes before her 1am curfew :P phew.

Bombed a nutrition test last week, but besides that school is going well. Work is crazy as usual, but we're short staffed and some people are just being real idiots at the moments :( so we sane people have to deal with it and life goes on, but not in the way we had hoped. The weather has been in the mid 70s to high 80s the past couple days and then the weather channel says it's supposed to be mid 40 tomorrow, oh joy :)
