The weekend’s over, and along comes the work week….again. I’m excited though, because my travel season starts today! I used to think that being on the road visiting colleges and doing college fairs would get old…but it doesn’t…and I love it! I’m off to Champaign/Urbana this week. Jennifer Hanon and I are visiting quite a few high schools and community colleges and we have several fairs. I hate being away from Jared, but being out of the office is a welcomed break. Being in Champaign also means another thing….KARYN! Yay…I get to see my bestest buddy Karyn! Man, I wish I lived closer to her…or vice versa. I hate not getting to see her as much anymore, but I love that when I do get to see her…it’s like no time’s passed at all.

This weekend was good too. My fair on Saturday got cancelled (I was supposed to stay with my parents), but I ended up going to visit Emden anyway. I already had my mind set on visiting, so I did. I got to Emden Friday just in time for yummy supper. Mom made roast beef, mashed potatoes, gravy, corn, rolls and apple crisp. Yummmmm….mom food. Why is food always better when your mom makes it?! Anyway, mom and I stayed up late talking, which was good fun. The next morning I slept in for a bit and went over to visit my grandma. I hung out with her for like 4 hours. We went to lunch at the diner and had a really good time. I have an amazing grandma, and I really enjoy spending time with her….especially now. I think I appreciate it more as an adult now. Anyway, after that I went back to mom and dad’s. Mom and I went to Lincoln to shop a little bit. I bought some Cub’s fleece to make a blanket for Jared and a great new outfit for work. (Mom and I got matching brown leather jackets…they’re great!) We went back to Emden and visited some more before supper. After supper we made time for watching a new Veggie Tale, and then I had to hit the road. I made it back to greenville by 10:30, just in time to visit with Jared a bit and then sleep.

Yesterday we went to church and then had a great day of relaxing. I cleaned a bit and then we watched “Best in Show”. Awesome movie! (It’s by the creators of Spinal Tap.) It’s so silly! Anyway, I better finish this entry. I have a visit coming soon and I need to get a file ready. More later!
