Been so busy lately I have been barely able to keep up reading my friends' journals, nevermind writing in my own. I am really loving work, even the hard stuff to deal with (like cranky clients and euthanasias and long days). I'm learning a lot at work and I love the people, it's really great.
Yesterday and today are my days off right now and between babysitting going to work for manditory weekly meeting shopping seeing my uncle and going to the docotr (yay I'm mono free! and next week i'll have the tests to prove it) I've been having baking fits. We have a bunch of lemons so I made lemon squares last night (I had to leave them on time bake in the oven while I went babysitting so there a little more done then I would like but still look good. Today I experimented with lemon merangue pie. I made a dozen mini ones and they seem to have coem out ok, except that i scorched the filling a little so they have lemon flavored caramel bits throughout, oh well. Both sets of lemon treats will be making an appearance with me at dance practice tonight (if I don't forget to bring them like I did with the last batch of lemon squares). I also made pansy comfits today, just cause. I feel productive.
Yeseterday I babysat, it was fun. Took the triplets (with there mom) and went to the pool for a few hours. It was nice to hang out in the sun, though I had an awful headache that put a bit of a damper on my day). My uncle had dinner with us last night (he's out from Malibu), Chad came too, the first long amount of time he's spent with my family, it went well. It was a really nice dinner and my family all likes Chad. It was a great way to spend the evening.
All and all things are going quite well. i'll try to write a bit more often, but no promises.
