Hello again!

Hello again everyone! Long time no chat!!! I realize it seems I've fallen off the face of the earth...I haven't posted since last year! Eeek! I have been keeping super busy with work and classes. This semester is turning out to be really stressful. All of my classes require a steady (and huge) amount of work. Last semester, I took 3 classes as well, but only one required a ton of work all the time, and for the other 2 the workload varied over the semester. Sometimes I had a ton of stuff to do, but other times I had pretty much nothing to do. So this semester is turning out to be a lot more stressful in terms of the amount of coursework I need to do. Work is also really busy right now. And I joined the Easter Triduum choir at my church, and have been volunteering with Michigan Youth Leadership quite a bit. Plus I'm helping my best friend Jenny with her wedding plans (I printed up 200 wedding invitations this past weekend) so that has been keeping me busy too! Her wedding is April 16th, and it is going to be a lot of fun. :) My husband David & I took a much-needed 6-day vacation down to Port Aransas, Texas last week during my spring break. We got to see the whooping cranes, and tons of other really neat birds. We spent a lot of time lounging around (even though it wasn't as warm as I was hoping it would be), and just relaxing. Usually our vacations consist of us getting up super early and running around all day, seeing and doing as much as we possibly can. So this vacation was a lot more relaxing, which is just what I needed right now. As you've probably noticed due to my lack of posting and updating of my website/Ebay, I have had to put a lot of things on the back burner lately, which I'm not too happy about but I don't have much of a choice right now. Today I added a few new pairs of really neat lampwork earrings. I have plenty more beads just waiting to be made into lovely creations, but there are simply not enough hours in each day for me to get everything done!! I will try to post more often in the future and get back into the swing of things with my website. :)
