I'm still looking for a job this spring. Know anyone who's hiring for teaching positions? There's got to be someone! I need to fix up my resume. Mine is no good- I have the info, but the layout is bo-RING. No one will pull it out of a pile of 398 and decide mine is the one they want to look at. no way.

I don't have school today or yesterday- teachers' convention. I went yesterday and picked up many new pens and free things like that. Ah the joys of being a teacher!

I do hope you're well. I miss you so much. Lets chat soon.....

love you,
H

love.

Love the pictures, lady. I can imagine the tears that were a-flowin' after Nate left. I hope that you are comforted somehow. You're almost done, though! Soon you'll be back! It's gone so quickly! I am happy you aren't staying there forever. I miss you! Ooohhh, we need to go to coffee soon. And yes, the Haymarket is an enchanting place to be on a fall morning. Just this morning I went to Crescent Moon to get some of my fave hot chocolate. Like you said, everyone should be able to invest in the drink of their choice--and enjoy it on a regular basis. I concure whole-heartidly!

Best go. I need to clean up the house. Or not. haha.

understand that it's all understood

Hi Dame. Here are a few pics for you....

here's a collage of our photos from the weekend.....
guess who.... :)
Here we are by lake michigan....we coaxed a seagull into taking this for us...
It was such a great weekend, Leslie. I cried and cried after he left. I can't even tell you how badly I wanted to get on that plane with him. I miss home terribly. I want to be there for the pre-Christmas season. I want to sit in Scooters downtown and watch the fall rain turn the roads icy and black- i want to see the streetlamps lighting up areas of the haymarket with their orangy glow....

Sittin' on top of the cosmetic counter?

Hey girl,

Sounds like the weekend with Nate was going quite well. Man,oh, man it has been a long time since we've talked. I've been a busy beaver. Are you serious that there are only 3 more weeks of school for you?? That's crazy. My practicum is giving me anxiety. I have fall break this week, so that's good, but yes. Anxiety. Not excited about it, really.

It is cool and blustery here. Yesterday I went out to Pawnee Lake and went hiking around. I hope I can do that again sometime soon. It was really pretty and nice. This weekend the parents are coming to town to go to Hairspray!!! Hurrah! I'm excited. Should be a good show and a good time with the parentals.

Tell me more. When are you actually coming home? Yessssss.

I feel like I'm there right now. Nate's here this weekend and I'm happy as a clam. (is that what they say?) Life is just....better. There's no question, Dame. It's better with him.

We're into my favorite part of year- and there will be pumpkin carving this afternoon, which will be quite fun, I'm sure. How are you? What's happening in your life? I feel like I haven't talked to you forever. School is good- I only have 3 weeks left at the school I'm in....actually 2 1/2 because we don't have school next Thursday and Friday. So....I'm moving right along. Before you know it, I'll be packed and cruising south and west.....ready for my hug from you.

I think I broke my pinkie in August. I crushed it in a really heavy door at the surgery center in N-town....and it hasn't bent the same since. .....just thought you should know.

Miss you lots, love. Take care.
