New year, new energy.

Hm, how to start off today's blog... 
2011 has already had it's ups and downs for me.  It started off with an amazing couple of new years parties and my ability to black out after 1:30.  On the 2nd we took a semi-family vacation to Green Bay to watch the Packers successfully beat the Bears (the Bears still suck). And I say semi-family vacation because it was my dad, brother and one of my sisters.  We asked Mom why she didn't want to go and she said she's not much of an outdoor football fan when it's cold out and she's not a Packer fan. But it's LAMBEAU FIELD!! A phenomenal experience no matter if you're a Packer Backer.  I went snowboarding with a few friends which was awesome....until I ended up in ER because I severely sprain my neck and back. (my bad luck continues). 

I have come to love both of my jobs.  They are on completely opposite ends of the spectrum though when it comes to human resources, one working a group home with six mentally retarded adults and the other working as a cashier/hostess at Buffalo Wild Wings in downtown Mankato.  Working with Living Links the clients become your family and just this past weekend one was admitted to the hospital and unfortunately never came back out.  So here's to Sara, I love you and I miss you.  The house just isn't the same without you, I'm so glad you are no longer feeling any pain, may your angel wings carry you to far out places you can now see again. You are our shining star.

I have some of the greatest friends in the world here in Mankato and I'm truly glad that I am taking time  off from school for a couple semesters, life is too crazy to not give yourself a break sometimes especially when you  really have no idea what you want to do with your life anymore.  So for now ces't la vie.
