a quick update

So I haven't written a blog for awhile and the main reason is that my camera is nearing retirement and I haven't had many pictures to share. I dropped it on our visit to Holland and although it's not completely shot, it's seen better days. The batteries don't quite stay put anymore and it turns of randomly. Mikel does have a camera too but I'm kind of a creature of habit and I haven't embraced it yet.

Since I last posted it finally snowed...very sad. It wasn't much snow and it has only happened the one time so we still can't complain! We have been told that the worst part of winter is in January so we have awhile to wait.

Also, Mikel got a job working in the tools department at Sears at least for the holidays. Although it is definitely not his dream job it's not too bad and he's getting a paycheck! We still looking for something else in sports or something but a job's a job right now!!

As for school, things are still going well. There are only three weeks left before finals which means that I have three weeks to write 2 LONG papers-- but I'll get the done! My teaching is still going well; I'm enjoying my classes and my students (for the most part)! I have a lot of grading to do this weekend but I'm enjoying it!

That's an update on our life in a nutshell! We miss our family and friends but are still having a lot of fun here!
