Lately

So a lot has been going on lately so I thought I would fill you all in :)

Ben and I worked together at Sprint, I was manager. I loved it but had another job opportunity at Rise. Rise is an organization that support children and adults with a wide range of disabilities. Most of them are minor. All of these kids have quite the past. They grew up in horrible environments, and are now in foster care. Each has a unique situation and I feel blessed to be apart of their lives, and to work there. I am a Resource Specialist and Administrative Assistant. I wish I could tell you exactly what my job description is, but it is so much! I don't work directly with our kids, I am the office part of it. I am a administrative assistant for their social works, I do payroll for our employee's, I help with employment like trainings and applications, I handle files, ETC. haha I would go it on but you would have no idea what I am talking about! It is BUSY, and I am still trying to learn stuff but I am getting the hang of it. I love it so far look forward to making more friends and having a good time.

Ben is still working at Sprint and is now manager. He likes it. He is training people right now, which I think is fun for him. He recently got a raise and some other awesome things. We love the owner. He is a very laid back, fun guy. I like those kind of bosses cause you still do the things you need to do but also have fun. They are opening up another in the mall, which is exciting! He is starting school like in a couple of days! Werrrrid? Yes. It is good for him to get back. I am all set to start school in the Fall.

Oh guess WHAT!!!! We are getting a Honda Element! Yes, I said a Honda Element. They are my FAVORITE cars EVER. And I am getting one in September. :)

I have been trying to lose weight and so far I have lost 7 pounds. And on my way to lose much more :) I am thinking about doing weight watchers with a friend from work. I have heard a lot of good things about that program so I may or may not try it!

So this is random but I love it. Lately ben and I have started staying up till midnight every Sunday night and then going to get diet cokes! And maybe some Mcdonalds fries…. sometimes ;) I have the hardest time staying up and sometimes I will fall asleep at like 10 and ben will wake me up at 12, gotta keep tradition!

So in small words that is what has been going on lately. :)

  1. I read your posts out loud to Jared and he laughed at that tradition thing cause he would be the one to fall asleep. So glad all is going well. Are you buying a new car?! Or just a used?
