Bring on May...

(Note, this was written three months ago, but I wanted it on my blog so I could remember it. Sorry for the confusion)

Wow. Blogger got all fancy on me.

This month has zoomed by. Pretty crazy. Jordan and I have been super busy this month. We half-jokingly tell each other "I'll see you this weekend" when one of us leaves the house because it feels as though our schedules just are NOT colliding well.

 Jordan gets up at 4:00 am so he can be on time for his surgery rotation that starts at 5:00 am (yuck). This leads him to get home around 5:00 pm and go to bed around 8:00. Meanwhile, I have taken on a temporary second job at work which makes me have to stay late most days. On Wednesdays, I have mutual so I just work until 7, head straight to church, and then come home at 8:30 to find poor Jordan asleep on the couch. This is usually the case on Thursday too, as I have had some auxiliary training and RS activities. The GOOD news is Jordan never has to go to work on weekends with this rotation, where on his last rotation, he had to work at least one weekend day for four weeks straight.

Like I had mentioned before, I have been doing a second job for my agency. It was originally an agreement for 6 hours a week for 5 weeks...but has morphed into 7-8 hours a week for 6 weeks. Blah. The job itself is not so bad, but it sure makes for long days. I'm usually the first one in my office, which creeps me out a little (since I usually come into work early as well for the job). Luckily, I am getting paid separately for this gig, and Jordan agreed that since this was a bonus job, the money is MY money to play with...I certainly didn't argue with that. So far, I have purchased a Silhouette cutting machine *cue the angelic chorus*. I am so excited! I've wanted one for about 18 months and finally feel justified in buying it. I also can't decide if I want to get a camcorder or a fancy camera with the rest of the money. Any ideas/suggestions??

Another cool thing about this month was our trip to Oklahoma City last weekend to see Cake in concert! I have liked that band for a long time. Jordan and I made a day of it. We ate cupcakes in honor of the band, and walked around the botanical garden in OKC. The concert was pretty awesome too.

So, yeah. April had some nice moments as well, I s'pose. I'm just looking forward to getting some vacation time!! In May, Jordan and I will celebrate our THREE year anniversary (say whaaaat?) by going to Dallas (at least that is the current plan). In June, my sister and her family are coming to visit and Jordan will get two weeks off! Can't wait!
