yesterday i only had an evening shift, so i met up wth sarah at her lunch time and we bought giant lounge-y sweaters for only five quid each. they are heavenly. they're way too big for us, but that's what makes them so lovely. they're cozy, comfy, "it's fall and i'm sitting on the couch with a blanket drinking tea and reading" sweaters.
so, this is not for sure, but i think i've found a babysitting job! one of dominique's friends brought her three year old by the restaurant last night and when she heard that i had worked with kids and loved them she said that they were looking for someone to babysit about every other week and that if i was free next wednesday she'd love to have me! i really hope this works out. her daughter is precious. we sat on the floor and put on lip gloss and read a book about a guinea pig last night. i think i'm in love. i probably can't count anymore the number of children i've fallen in love with, but that doesn't make it any less sincere this time around.
i've got more exciting things coming up soon, but this is just to let you know that i haven't fallen off the face of the earth. :) love, love, love.

I have fallen in love with too many kids, too... Oh, I'd say about 2500 just this summer plus a new kid every week in church. There are so many Tilikum-aged boys and girls at the church I go to in Tacoma, and it's fun to see them (no babysitting jobs yet, though).
Glad to hear you are still alive and kickin'!
I've started to look at studying abroad for next fall or spring. Exciting!! I'm mostly looking at England (Lancaster U.) or Scotland (Aberdeen and Edinburgh), although Ireland is not entirely out of the picture, either. :-) We will have to talk about all things Britain before I leave!!
Think about it.
This time next week, I'll be there with you.
OMG
I CAN'T WAIT
xoxoxoxoxoxo
the other day the grandkids (i think) of the people funding the job i'm working on came onsite wearing reflective orange vests and hard hats that were way too big for them :)
