A long time coming!

I know it's been forever. I've been missing blogging, but have a pretty jam packed schedule. After my summer of camp finished, I was offered a permanent position with the Girl Scouts. I accepted the job and for the past 5 months I've been working with underprivileged girls ranging from elementary schools to girls in juvenile hall. It's an amazing job and have fallen in love with what this organization stands for. I love it so much that I sacrifice time at home for commuting. I have to drive an hour just to our office and then to which ever site I'm at that day, so I spend 3 hours driving a day. Because of this I had to get a second job at a bridal chain store. It's not my favorite job, but it's a means to a better life. I also went back to school. I have found a calling in working with less privileged kids and because of that I'm now a psychology major! Jim and I are doing good. We try to spend time together have little dates when we can. Today we went thrift store shopping and had lunch before I had to leave for work. We find time and like always, we make it work. I really love that man! Oh since my last post, I chopped all my hair off. It was so fried from all the processing and crazy colors. I miss the purple, but I'm glad my hair is starting to feel healthy again. Maybe I'll try something fun this summer again. I bought a new car. It makes me feel like a grown up, I know I am one, but certain tasks (such as buying a car) really make you feel like an adult. Well I better get back to homework, I just wanted to check in with everyone and I'll be back soon to post something fun. 

Here are a few recent photos:
