...whoops...

I haven't updated since last week.  Whoopsies.  I'll give you a quick update:

I finished working at the old job on Wednesday.  It was hard to leave, but definitely a good thing to get out of there.  Christmas eve was spent helping boyfriend take care of the deer he and a friend got the night before.  Never thought I'd be doing THAT on christmas eve.  I got a good anatomy lesson.  We had a quiet Christmas at home, both bro's were home of course and boyfriend came over in the middle of the day to hang out.  Aunt & Uncle and fam came over for dessert.  Always a good time when everyone can get together.  Saturday & Sunday were spent hanging out with boyfriend's mom, my best friend, and the boys(not all at the same time).  Sidenote - Boyfriend and boyfriend's mom were way too good for me for Christmas(my fam was great too, but that's to be expected).  Boyfriend and I had decided not to exchange gifts.  He didn't keep his promise and got me a diamond necklace and a gift certificate to my favorite salon for a mani/pedi.  His mom got me a Vera Bradley purse, mittens, coffee mug, and bracelet.  They spoiled me that's for sure. 

That brings us to today.  I started the new job, working at a company that registers dog & dog breeds and hosts most of the dog events held across the country.  I won't say the company name, but you can probably guess :)  I'm working in their publications department, creating ad and page layouts for their 3 national magazines.  Anyways, it's always interesting to start at a new place.  This office is bigger than most of the places I've worked(when I say bigger, I mean about 50 employees).  The most overwhelming thing can be just getting used to the office dynamics and getting to know everyone.  First days suck too...do I take my lunch or go buy?  Where do I go when I first get there?  Where's the bathroom?!  I survived though.  Everyone in my department is nice and very welcoming.  It was a good first day!

...she's back...

After about a year, I've decided to start blogging again(L I know you are jumping for joy right now). My life has become a little more interesting than boring old college. A lot has changed in a year. One sentence summary? I graduated from college(finally), met boyfriend over the summer, recently got a puppy and a new job. That's my life in a nutshell right now. New puppy will be the source of many great stories..the boyfriend and new job might add some fun to the mix too!! So, that's it for now..I'll post pics of my little boy(the puppy) later :)
