Save the cheerleader, save the world.

Wow. It has been another one of those times that so much is going on and I don't want to update unless I can do a good job. And then things get busy and I have more things to update on and put it off again and again...vicious cycle here.

I started work on Monday and am very thankful. My job is pretty great so far. Again, I am the Communications Analyst for a health care company and I do a lot of writing and maintaining processes that ensure our benefit plans get out in the right time. It just blows my mind how "in my field" I am working. In my first week alone I had to come up with a slogan for and approve a flyer, and draft a letter and meet with our publishing representative (as well as a lot of training.) I feel very fulfilled being in the health care industry and knowing that I am contributing to people getting medical treatments that they need. Now I just can't wait for a paycheck!! It is hard actually having a job and not being able to celebrate!

As for a few more minor tidbits:
Allen and I are becoming more active as a couple in the youth group, which is super great. I love my kids and I love sharing that with him.
I want to buy a car that I actually like. That I research and pick out and test drive and finance myself. I have decided I want to get a 2007 Nissan Versa and am now on the hunt for well-priced ones.
Allen and I have discovered Netflix, and thus discovered Heroes the t.v. show. It is nothing short of addiction. We watch about three episodes a day and just can't get enough. We are already on season 2 after one week.
I have also developed an affinity for string cheese and diet soda, several times a day, to keep me from snacking on carby things. Unfortunately I am out of both, and am not quite sure what I am going to do about it.
I have successfully learned how to cook Indian food. My specialty is coconut curry chicken. MMMMMM.

Well I guess that is all for now. Peace out.
