Surprises

So this week was pretty long like all the others. It was a good week and taught me that I do not want to work in an office staring at a computer all day. I also got to work in the production area at the Houston Independent School district. This was 4 hours in the bakery where I helped package yellow cake and make extremely big batches of brownies. I was covered in brownie mix by lunch time...luckily they gave me an apron and gloves. Then after lunch we were sent to cold foods for 2 hours. This was basically a room set to the temperature of a freezer. I know my hands were freezing so I'm not sure how these workers do it everyday. The rest of the week was standard with going to schools and doing work in the office.

At work I got my first pay check which made my whole Friday. I also got a star because the hosts got perfect scores. I was very excited and really enjoyed working in the fast pace Friday night. I had to work again this morning and decided to wake up early to run. A few friends and I are running a 5K next Saturday so I am getting back into running. Then I went to work and it was a pretty normal morning shift. I got home and had a package waiting for me...one dozen AMAZING red roses from Eric. Yesterday was our 16 month anniversary and he made my whole day.

Now I am going out with some of the girls tonight and then back to work tomorrow morning. The next few weeks are going to fly by and in 27 days I will be picking Eric up from the airport for his Houston vacation. I can't wait!
