Goodbye Mississippi, Hello Alabama!!

It's official....I'm moving to B'ham on Sunday, and to say that I'm excited is quite an understatement!! Sorry for the lack of updates but I have been extraordinarily busy!! Let me catch you up-to-date!

I had a sales meeting in B'ham last Monday, training on Wednesday and Thursday, and I spent Friday-Sunday in Starkville!

I spent Monday and Wednesday in B'ham again this week for another sales meeting and more training..and I have been working in Meridian in between trips!

Work has kept me extremely busy but I am absolutely loving it!! I absolutely love my co-workers, my district manager, and also my regional manager. I am so excited to actually get settled!!

Words cannot even describe (and this post could never justify) just how absolutely blessed I have been. Not only did God provide me with an amazing job, such a fun city and an amazing apartment, but also an amazing roommate! When I was looking for an apt back in September, I found one apartment complex that I absolutely fell in love with! And of course for a one bedroom, it was a little pricey. Well guess what? Not only did I find a roommate, but my roommate got an amazing move-in-special in this apartment complex, and my rent will be the same price that I paid for an apt. in Starkville!! Could things have worked out to be any more perfect??

I am absolutely blessed beyond belief and could not be any more excited about the move!! It is going to be a huge relief to get settled and not have to commute a few times a week! If you're ever in the area, please stop by and visit!!

On another note..

I may be a bit partial, but I know without a doubt that I have the most amazing friends in the world. I miss them all very much!! We had a "reunion" last weekend in Starkville and had an absolute blast!! Here are a few pics, enjoy!

Happy Birthday Sara Hall!!

Even though I am one day late posting!! I hope you had a wonderful birthday, we've got lots of celebrating to do next time I see you!! I hope you had an amazing weekend in Austin!!

On the Road Again..

I'm afraid that my days of free-time are officially over! I had my first sales meeting this morning in Birmingham and it went really well. I am going to look at an apartment early Wednesday morning, and I will be in training all of Wednesday and Thursday. I will head back to Meridian late Thursday night and onto Starkville Friday!! My friends and I decided that it would be the perfect weekend for a reunion! I couldn't be more excited, I miss them all sooo much!!

Well, if I didn't feel old enough talking about sales meetings, guess what I have been up to all afternoon?

Looking for something to log all of my expenses onto, looking to open up a "business account," and looking for files to store all of my paperwork in. I feel as if I've gotten really old really quick.

Now onto many more important topics..

I have never really been a big "t.v. watcher," but I'm convinced that I've watched more television in the past 6 months than I have in my entire life! I think I have a show or two for each night of the week! And with that being said, you know what tonight is.....

The Bachelor!! I read Reality Steve's blog and after reading who Jake picks in the end, it makes me sick that I even watch this show anymore!!

And most importantly, you cannot let me forget..

tomorrow night!!

For some reason I cannot remember American Idol each Tuesday and Wednesday night to save my life! I love watching it....when I remember it! The past few weeks I think I've caught the last five minutes of each episode!

Well, It's Official..

I have made the executive decision to stop substitute teaching. I taught third grade yesterday. I was supposed to teach again today and tomorrow but unfortunately I came home yesterday with the flu. I just don't think that words could possibly express how absolutely miserable I have felt but I'm hoping that it goes away very quickly!

There is also BIG news that I have to share! I signed a contract yesterday to work for an insurance brokerage company in Birmingham, AL. I will be in training next week and hopefully start sometime very soon after that! I am extremely excited and absolutely cannot wait to begin a new career!

Singles Awareness Day 2010

I won't delve into details, but I will tell you that this is the one day of each year that I absolutely dread the most. For lack of better words....

But today hasn't been that bad afterall. I woke up yesterday morning to beautiful red roses from my sweet dad, and to my surprise my good friend Brad sent me flowers and a cute little bear. Even the youth group at the catholic church dropped cookies off at our doorstep.
But the best news yet...

There is an 80% chance of SNOW again tonight, and that absolutely thrills me!!

Happy Singles Awareness Day to you all!

Snow Day!!

I never in one million years thought that would be the title to this post but it snowed a good 3-5 inches in Meridian!! It started snowing around 11 last night and didn't stop until about 3 this afternoon, and let me tell you that it was nothing short of amazing! We have been playing outside all day!! This was little Sophie's first snow and she absolutely LOVED it!! We built 2 (okay really 3) snowmen, had snowball fights, and made snow angels! All in all it was an absolutely amazing day. I did learn one thing though..building a snowman is a talent in which I apparently didn't acquire!! After three snowmen I decided to give up; the pic below is of the remnants that were left behind of snowman #3! Enjoy!

Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow..

There is a 40% chance of SNOW on Friday!!!!!

Oh how I wish for a really big snow storm..
