"Who invited Boss-Lady?"

In anticipation of my big move up north, I think you all should do your homework!  One of my favorite movies is "New in Town" featuring Renee Zellweger and Harry Connick, Jr. along with a host of other fantastic actors!  If you haven't seen it, it's about a woman from Miami who has to move up to Minnesota to run a factory.  Obviously it is a change of pace for her and she has a lot of new experiences ahead of her.  


Scrapbooking, ice fishing, and learning to cope with the frigid temperatures!  Little did she know what remarkable people she would find when she arrived.  I have begun to think that my experience could be something like this movie - both from the crazy hi-jinx to the unexpected people I will meet!  Granted I'm not moving to Minnesota, but I think the idea still applies. :)


If you haven't seen this movie, go rent it!  You won't regret it!

A New Adventure is About to Begin!

Welcome everyone!  As many of you have probably heard by now, I got a job!  I am very excited about the opportunity and look forward to all of the challenges it will bring.  What is even more exciting though is the prospect of moving somewhere new--without the purpose of going to school!  I cannot wait to make my first "big kid" move to Aberdeen, South Dakota this summer.


I decided in order to keep my family and friends updated on the experience that I would start this blog, not to mention, it will give me something to do once I no longer have homework to keep me busy!  I won't move until this summer, so until then I will have to keep you entertained with tales of apartment hunting and packing blunders and everything in between!!  For a while my time will be preoccupied with studying and making sure graduation happens, but I promise to keep you updated as best I can along the way!!
