blogger is not playing tricks on your eyes

I finally am sitting down for a new post. This life thing keeps happening and really isn't slowing down. On to the updates:

Work
The new job is going well but is still extremely busy. I'm still doing the 50+ hour work week. It will probably continue through the end of April. However, I really like the women I'm working with...it makes the long weeks pretty easy. The more I work with them, the better I think we mesh. I hope it keeps going this well. We're all beyond the normal amount of tired and stressed so I think we're seeing the truest versions of each other.

This upcoming weekend marks my first full weekend off since I got back from vacation at the end of January. I'm traveling to see my parents. I haven't been down for a visit since Christmas and that was for less than 24 hours.

Dawn, to answer a question of yours from a long time ago: yes, I am working in the same office that most of my Minnetonka peeps went to. My old bosses aren't at this office which is sad but the management team in the Bloomington office is fantastic.

Home
I don't see it as often as I'd like to. When I am here, I'm normally having dinner, or sleeping. I found out on Monday that my lease ends May 31st. This is news to me. I thought I had until the end of June. So now apartment hunting is in full swing. I want to move closer to work (22 miles one way is about 12 miles too many for me). I have something that I hope works out but I won't know for a few days. Needless to say, there will be a moving party at the end of May. I may be reaching out for some help with this one. I'll keep you posted :)

Family
My brother got a new job and will be staying in Colorado Springs - yay for him! Mom still continues to do pretty well. Her lungs are taking very well. She's having some issues with kidney function that the doctors are trying to straighten out. Keep your fingers crossed.

Last weekend I found out that my 25 year old cousin is having a total hysterectomy due to ovarian cancer. No, 25 is not a typo. I can't imagine what she is going through. A couple of years ago we lost her mom to breast cancer. I am happy that she has had the chance to have a baby so she won't miss out on that completely. Please send some happy good thoughts her way.

Friends
I don't see any of you as often as I'd like. Hopefully by the time summer rolls around that will change. There's always a chance we could meet up to catch some...

Baseball

Season opener is just around the corner. Only one more year of indoor baseball! I have to admit that I wasn't super excited about the upcoming season - just the normal amount of excited. Then I was gifted a Flex 40 plan. Now I'm uber excited. Who doesn't love free baseball?

Funny
Claussen prompted this with his comment on the banana phone video. Here's another random video. You might have to watch it a few times to find it funny. I did. Due to language - probably not good to watch at work.



I think that's it.

I'm at school, so I'll skip the video for now :)

I miss you. I like the way this post is written. Where is the "new place" you're looking at?

An update! I love T updates!

I'm glad things are going mostly well for you--hope your mom continues to improve. (And sympathy to your cousin!)
