Relaxing Summer

Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. Life has been a little crazy but I think it's finally starting to calm down. I'm looking forward to a nice relaxing summer (famous last words, heehee). This year has been so crazy that I decided to take a break this summer from school. For one, I needed a little down time and for two, I am reconsidering my school plans. I love my job, so I am considering doing something like that instead of speech-language pathology. The company I work for, Dyslexia Institute, is actually a franchise, so I could one day do that and own my own business (something I have always wanted to do), although I think I would need to get a teaching credential or an MA in education first. And it's not something I want to do right now, but I think it would be a good fit for me. I already know I do it well and enjoy it, and it's a pretty good set up. The office I work for now is only open Mon-Wed, mostly in the afternoon and evening and the company provides all the lessons and tests and everything. Even if I get an MA in education, it would still be less school, which also means less money and time. So anyway, that's what I'm leaning towards.

We haven't been up to too much that is interesting. Ben has been busy at work and we haven't even been able to work on the house much. I did have lunch with a new friend on Friday and it was so much fun, we really hit it off. And we found a new church that I think may really work for us. It has four services on Sat night or Sun morning, it's only about 10 minutes away and it has a young marrieds group that meets every other Friday. We're going to try out the young marrieds group Friday, I really hope we like it. Other than that, we've just been watching episodes of 24. We never watched it, so we started from season 1 (now we're on season 2), and we both like it. It's a pretty good show. We get the videos from the library, yea for free entertainment.

Haha, I just thought of a funny story. Brooke discovered that doggie door (from the previous owner) that goes from the yard to the garage. Not only did she get into the trash, but she got out yesterday and ran circles on our front lawn and around our culdesac. She was so happy and proud of herself, it was the funniest thing. We had to block the door so she can't do it again, but hey, at least she enjoyed herself. You should have seen the look on her little doggie face! I wish I had gotten a picture.

Hope you are all doing well.
