A Senior Moment....

This happened a few years ago, but I still laugh every time I walk down the yogurt isle in the grocery store. A few years ago my Dad was on a big yogurt kick. Eating healthy, lots of yogurt, blah blah blah. So one day we were in the grocery store and all of a sudden my Mom started busting out laughing. Apparently my Dad was looking at the yogurt selection and said "Oh look. nosugaradded 

(pronounced nah-soor-grah-dead), must be a new kind of Greek Yogurt".

Wow, No Sugar Added, Dad. Now I can't look at Yogurt and not smile.

New Job!

I got a job! Yay! I am now part of the wonderful admissions team at USC Salkehatchie. It has been a little overwhelming, okay a lot of overwhelming, at first. There is a lot, and I mean A LOT, of information I have had to learn. But I am slowly getting the hang of things and I am actually starting to kinda like it. I am so happy to have a job. This came at the right time too. I've still been having a really hard time dealing with the death of Jeremy's father and this job really helps keep me focused on things other than being sad all the time. Some days I still feel like just lying in bed all day but having a job makes me get up and interact with other people. So this job has been a big blessing. Most of the time I will be hanging out in Allendale, SC but they have another campus in Walterboro, SC, so I will be helping out there too. All of my co-workers are awesome. They are all so nice...I love making new friends.

My Double

I think I found my double...you know how they say everyone has a double in the world? Well I think I found mine...and her name is Sue Carol Ladd. Sue Carol was a Hollywood star in the 1920s/1930s.

Here is Sue and then below is a picture of me.

What do you think? Uncanny right? I mean look at that! That is crazy!
