Monday Musings

Wow! It's been a week since I wrote, but in my defense I was on vacation and went right back to work as soon as I came back. Nonetheless....it's time to write today!

Here a few of my Monday Musings.

1. Tiny Water Blisters

I'm not going to provide a picture for this because it's really strange and gross. I have heard of many people who get them, but no one can tell me how to get rid of them. I have them only on one finger and they appeared on my first day back to work last week. It has caused my finger to be swollen and puffy and I hate it! Anyone know how to get rid of them?

2. Money Matters

I am finding it hard to trust the Lord to provide for us. This is so silly because every time I don't think we are going to make it, we do. Dave is seeing the possibility of promotion and that is great for him, but we aren't married or anything so really it doesn't matter when it comes to me and money. I just really want to pay off my school loans sooner rather than later. If you are praying person, please pray that I can put all my money worries on the Lord and that He will show me that I have nothing to fear when it comes to Him providing for me.

3. Pack Your Bags!

Dave and I have 3 vacations planned for next year! Can you believe it? We never get to take vacations!

Our first one is in February when we will head up to Penn State University and spend the weekend at THON. THON is a 46 hr dance marathon for kids with pediatric cancer. I have been involved in THON since I was a Freshman in college and I still am a part of it today (even though I'm so far away).

Everyone throwing their diamonds in the air

Then in April my cousin is getting married in VA.
Then in September my baby bro is getting married back at home in PA. Those wedding bells are def ringing. I wonder who will be next?


That's all for today. I have to work 5:15pm until 1:45 am tonight then I can finally have two days off! Yay!!! Be sure to check back tomorrow for my post about the Bloggy Bracelet Swap!

Light at the end of the tunnel

Well it's been no shocker that I have been working 6/7 day work weeks with the opening of the new attraction. I am worn out, exhausted, and surprised that I never caught any of the bugs that went around. Big YAY!

I'm just not sure how much longer I can keep up with this routine.

A few weeks ago I found out my vacation time got approved! I basically ran around the apartment screaming and jumping up and down. I am finally going to spend some time with my family and get out of this state and lay on a beach! The only sad part is that Dave can't come with me because he didn't get this time approved. (This is typical for our work schedules)

I'm not super sad for him though. He was on vacation this past weekend and he had a blast. Not only did he visit his family, but he stopped by my house one night and had BBQ and drinks with my parents and neighbors. Can you imagine how surprised I was when this picture was texted to me:


Yup. I was surprised!

I can totally see my light at the end of the tunnel. It is only 9 short days away. It just stinks that 8 of those days are work days.

Are you guys excited for your vacation? Where are you all heading this summer?
