If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

Today was a regular kind of day. I went to work, ran a few errands afterwards, and then stopped by the library, where I proceeded to hand the librarian my Visa card instead of my library card. :anxious: Oops! I realized it just as I was handing it to her. Apparently my brain was ready for the weekend already. ;)

I've had a cold this week and I feel way too busy.

That said, Tea Ess reminded me that at least I don't have any exams to write anymore! \:D/

I'm sorry to hear that, Catspaw. :( I hope you get better soon.

Soon I won't have any more college exams either, so I guess I can't complain too much. \:D/

Thanks, Tea Ess. I actually do feel a little better today!

My sister's husband is away for a few days on a business trip, so I went to visit her after work today for some sister time! It was nice to have a chance to visit. She lives an hour away, so we don't get to do that as much as we would like.

Let's see, where to begin...
School will be done in a couple of weeks, so I'm doing quite a bit of homework for that.

I quit working at the lawn care company the first week of November and started working at Jimmy John's. (I know, quite a switch right?)

Oh but I'm going to be quitting that job soon to work at a tire shop. Lord willing, I'll be there for a lengthy period of time instead just a few months!

Wow, Brad, you sound busy! I hope you enjoy your new job, and then your new job after that!

Marvin, you are making me not miss being in university at all! \:D/ Hey, at least you started in the afternoon instead of the evening!

I helped in the three-year-old room at church this morning, which was mostly fun. We had our busy moments but I do love being with the kids! Playdough is a lifesaver. ;) This evening there was a prayer event, so that was a really great way to end the day!

I did two of those my senior year of high school. The first one was really boring. The second one was really easy because it was all about me! I read it now and go "man how I have changed".

I'm settling into my new apartment in Denver, CO and cuddling my cats. I start a new nursing position on Monday with blood and marrow transplant patients and I am SO SO EXCITED! Once there isn't any snow, I hope to explore and hike a lot. I know Colorado Springs is just down south, so maybe I can get info on the Blackgaard Chronicles Books ;) Man I wish. But it is nice to finally be back in a blue state. Living in North Dakota was brutal politically.

Yeah, I'm moving from Indiana to Michigan, and I'm quite excited for the political change. Even though it leaned red during the election, it's considerably more blue than Indiana is.

I never get snow. :( But I don't like the cold either so I'm good. :P

In other news, I finished my essay! :D It ended up not needing to be 10 pages so I didn't go all the way to 10 pages. :P I also got a 75 in my last test before the final in one of my classes. :( It's fine though because the lowest test grade is dropped. :wacky: Still wounds me to see a 75 :( I also finished a course project today so now I have no more assignments this semester! \:D/ I just need to study for my finals and ace them.

I haven't done an update in forever.

I finally got a new job at a Casey's General Store (gas station). I've been there almost 4 months and love it. Casey's has a kitchen so we sell pizza, donuts, salads, cookies, brownies :inlove:, fudge (during holidays), hot wings, and much more. It feels like an extended family to me. I run the cash register, make coffee, clean the store, and stock the cooler/shelves.

I also got my first apartment over the weekend and Im settling in nicely
