Soooooooo Long!

It's been sooooo long since I've been on here! Like almost a year. That's pretty horrible. I blame working retail. I know that only makes sense for like October 08 - January 09, but still, its too blame.

So much stuff is changing right now and I came on here tonight to look at someone else's blog and decided, hmmmmmm maybe it time for an update!

So here we go...

I'm still working part time at Sears in the receiving department. I love my job but I am applying for a position that would get me more hours and better pay. I've been at Sears a year now exactly. It's a really good place to work and I'm very grateful to have a job in this economy!

I'm currently living down in Clovis, CA with my parents soon but I will be moving back to Sacramento as soon as my right shoulder will allow me to. I got hurt 4 and a half months ago at work and I'm waiting to find out if I'm going to have surgery. Just another week or so and I should know something (finally!). The whole workman's comp thing has been a nightmare but my store has been really good about the whole thing.

I'm also changing my major in school. I am looking into going into the Police Academy next July so teaching is kind of out the window. I went on my first ride along last week and it was a great experience. I really can see myself as a police officer and loving it. A family friend is an officer down in Visalia and he's offered to take me again and also set me up with a female officer for a ride along so I can get her perspective on things. I'm really excited about this decision and am doing what I can at this point to get myself ready for it.

Speaking of getting myself ready, I started back at the gym today. Wow, that was an experience. I spent my time on an elliptical because with my shoulder, weights are not really an option last night. I was only on it for a half an hour, but my legs still feel like they're doing that motion! LOL.

Time for bed for me, but I'll leave you with a few pics...

This pic is from last summer, but its my brothers and I being our true selves and I love it!

My adorable twin nieces with no front teeth! They're getting so big!

The little one (as I refer to her) on her first day of Kindergarten 2 weeks ago! That is one kid happy to FINALLY be in school!

Oh and that Santa Cruz trip I was waiting to go on, well I finally went a few weeks after my last post and had an amazing time with one of my best friends.

I LOVE the beach!

The boardwalk

Ty relaxing on the "jacks" by the lighthouse as I took pictures.

Under the pier there were tons and tons of sea lions. We watched them for quite a while and even picked ourselves out...

Nothing is more beautiful than a sunset on the beach!
