New and interesting facts about myself...

I really didn't have an idea for this post, so I thought I'd just bullet point some recent happenings in my life.
  • I recently started taking guitar lessons. Did you know that learning guitar hurts? Literally. I have nasty calluses on my left hand fingers. So far, I've learned five songs and three strum patterns. I'm a rock star.

  • My sister came home for Christmas with her husband and two kids. My nephew, Sawyer, loves cars, and has seen it too many times to count. He has like seven cars from the movie, and when you watch the movie, you have to watch through the credits to the "real end" of the movie. He's smart and his smile can melt your heart. My niece, Lucy, instantly warmed up to me, and is amazingly cute. Especially when she's saying mamamamama and dadadadada over and over again. *sigh* I think a trip to Kansas is in order for the Spring. I just don't see these kids enough.

  • I turned 31 December 22. I had the best birthday. I got birthday cards at work. Birthday cards in the mail. That night, all my friends gathered to have a birthday dinner with me at 84 East. We ate great food, reminisced about old times, and had so much fun. I couldn't help but spend the whole night smiling. I've been missing my friends who are married, and that night was a great way to reconnect with them. They are fun, they care about me, and they really helped make my night very special.
 
  • I am looking at going back to school for Web Development/Design. I've really wanted to go back to school for a really long time, and it looks like it might happen soon! Just waiting to see which program works the best with my schedule and budget. I'm really excited about it, but also really nervous. So many things to do...and it might take me forever. However, I'm excited about going back to school, and actually getting a degree in something I'm really interested in and will use in my job. 
So, that's what's been going on with me. So much going on! I love being busy, but hate not being able to keep up with blogging about it all!!!
