Still trying to love NJ...

It sure has been awhile since I've updated this.

Since the last update I have started a new job at Lighthouse Pregnancy Resource Center. It's a crisis pregnancy center for women who may be considering abortion. We help them understand their options, perform ultrasounds so they can see their babies progress, and counsel them along the way. My title is Development Coordinator. I help/assist the Director with all the fundraising that we do and the events that go a long with it. Our most recent fundraiser is our Baby Bottle Boomerang, (kind of like the Peter Fish idea for my midwestern CRC friends:)). We distribute bottles with hopes of them coming back filled with change:).

So far I'm liking this job, but I'm still considering if I want to get my masters and to really find what makes me happy in life. I honestly wish I could be a full-time/year round coach. Sports/athletics make me the most happy and there's nothing I would love more than to be able to wear work out clothes every day!

I'm working out about 3 times a week at my friend Mandy's underground fitness. It is SUPER challenging, but she makes it so much fun I can't resist driving the 20 minutes to get there and work up a sweat! Andrew and I are still in the midst of our beach body competition--but I'm pretty sure I already crushed him by # of workouts completed!

I am traveling back to the homestead next Friday for about a week- first stop- my bff Kelsey's Bachelorette party!!! Can't even wait to see her and people I've missed so dearly and to celebrate her. Then to Munster to see family and back up to Mich for Kelsey's big day! Can't wait to be with people I've missed so much! Not really looking forward to the drive BY MYSELF but I am excited to listen to the audio book I bought- Bossy Pants by Tina Fey.. hopefully that'll help the drive go by!


Later Days
