Geeez Time Flies!

So, I am back! Sorry for such a long absence, I have been busy enjoying life and job hunting. I have a job now here in MN, and I like it. Hopefully I will be getting more hours soon, but for now it at least pays the bills!!! I have been keeping myself busy here. I am living at home so I help keep this place clean. Which is not fun at all... I would rather have my own place to clean, but someday... I have a lot of projects going on to keep me busy also. I planted a cute little herb garden last month and everything has finally popped up!! So far the basil and cilantro are growing the best. I have also been crocheting away! I finished a plarn tote bag and a pair of slippers. I have also started a baby blanket for a friend in Chile that just found out she is having a baby and a cute little new born cocoon for my aunt who is having her first baby this year as well. I have been spending a lot of time with family and friends and just enjoying myself. I went up to Lake of the Woods fishing with my brother and 2 of his friends and his girlfriend. We had a good time! The last day we were up there we were caught in a blizzard on the lake, it was pretty scary! Driving a truck 4 miles out onto a lake in a white out is not on my to do list! We also had a nice blizzard around here 2 days ago! I love all the snow on the ground, but with the temp at 40 degrees it will be gone soon. Other than that I don't really have anything too interesting going on in my life. Ro and I celebrated our first Valentine's Day apart, he sent me a box with a cute little teddy bear in it, I sent him enough candy to give him a mouthful of cavities! I am starting to plan our next vacation, but can't decide where to go. All I know is that I am NOT going back to Chile. I am not ready to go back to visit. I also would rather go to a neutral place because then we don't have to feel obligated to go visit every single person we know within a 50 mile radius. I want the time to be spent just Ro and I. NO sharing with anyone else!!! Yes, I am a little bit selfish, I know this already. Other than that I don't have anything to report. My next blog should be a bit more exciting, I will try to share pics and patterns of my projects I am working on! Hope all is well with everyone reading this!!! Chauuuu!!!
