unfortunate and fortunate

{ top: JCrew; skirt: Target; clutch/watch: Nordstrom; necklace: F21; heels: Jessica Simpson }


Unfortunate

1. I didn't realize how dependent I was on coffee until I couldn't have it at school. Luckily, my cooperating teacher says I can keep a coffee pot in the classroom, AND there is a cafe in the high school. Thank you, Jesus!
2. Barely seeing my hubs during the week. Even on the days that we're both in Corvallis, we still have to drive two separate cars. However, making faces on the drive home Tuesday nights on the freeway is a lot of fun.
3. Not having enough hours in the day. I'm already wishing I had more time and it's only week one.
4. Having most of our friends in Corvallis. I miss my friends. I especially miss my girls!
5. People with road rage. I'm sorry woman in the car who I accidently cut-off. You don't need to flip me off to get your point across... You just look mean and ridiculous when you do that.
6. I keep forgetting about my online classes... This could be a problem.


Fortunate

1. I have a new baby nephew... Wallace {AKA baby Wally}. I desperately wanna see the little guy, but he's in Utah. We're crossing our fingers that we can go out to visit this summer. He is the cutest little human on the planet. I bought him baby clothes this week. I died. I can't believe how itty bitty babies are. I bought him lots of dinosaur and striped things. 
2. Another baby thing... Our dear friends Jenna and Ryan had their baby girl yesterday! Sweet Taylor Grace. I can't wait to visit her today at the hospital. I'm sure she's quite the babe already.
3. Being back on a schedule. As much as I love sleeping in until 10 everyday, it is nice waking up at 5:30 again, and feeling so accomplished by noon. I'm a morning person, so waking up early isn't too hard for me.
4. I've been reading lots this week, even though I've been so incredibly busy. I love to read. It's so rewarding.
5. Tuesdays. Tuesdays are going to be great days for me this term. Why you ask? Because Tuesdays I get to drive down to Corvallis early in the morning, meet with my dear friend Kelley, have 5 hours to myself [meaning studying in library], class, and girls group. I already know Tuesdays are going to my retreat this winter.
6. One of my best friends, Laura, asked me to be a bridesmaid in her wedding!
7. It's a 3 day weekend... Yessss.

It's not too late to enter the bracelet giveaway from yesterday!!!
