Very uninteresting life!

One of my friends, who is a great blogger, keeps teasing me about updating my blog!  I guess that I just always feel like I don't really have anything to talk about!  Basically my life is work job #1, work job #2, sleep, and repeat.  But for Chelsea, I'll attempt to think of some things to talk about! 

First off I just realized that I still have never talked about Hawaii!  It's been 7 months since we got home, so I really need to get on that!  But that'll have to be a different post, too much to say!

What else has happened in the last 7 months? 

We completely redid the living room/kitchen at my parents house.  Finally tore down the wall between the two rooms!  My mom has wanted that done for years!  I love how open it makes everything.  Now when we have people over, we aren't so cramped in either the living room or the kitchen.  Good thing that dad's really good with electrical things!  Otherwise we could have had a real mess with the plugs and light switches in that wall!  About a week after we pulled out the wall, we had a family dinner with the 5 of us, plus Grandma.  And you can't forget Trinity, and Scott and Kelli brought Ali too!  We had a big crowd for us!  Even though none of the remodel was done other than the wall coming down, we could already tell that it was going to be great!  I took some mid-project pics but I'm not sure where they are right now!  And I've never taken any after ones.  So I'll have to post those later, but it looks great!

Work at JetBlue was beyond crazy for the first 5-6 months of the year, but luckily since then things have finally calmed down and somewhat gotten back to normal!  Thank goodness!  I just about wanted to die during those months!

Hmmm...anything else?  Oh, I completely chopped most of my hair off!  I've had pretty long hair for a VERY long time.  I have extremely thick hair and it takes forever to do!  I finally just got fed up with all of it!  I had basically been wearing it in a ponytail for about a year and I figured that short had to be better than that!  Turns out that I love it short!  It's so much quicker to get done!  The only hard part is that I can't just roll out of bed, throw it back, and run to the store!  Yeah, don't have any pics of the hair either!  I'm really bad right now!  But I'll be taking pics at X-Mas and will post them so you'll see the short hair.

Also, my parents finally bought a camp trailer!  My dad loves to camp but since before I was born all that my parents have had is an old pop-up camper.  My mom just isn't a fan!  She put up with it for a number of years while Scott and I were growing up and then she just told dad that she wasn't camping any more until they got a real trailer!  It's really nice!  They bought it towards the end of the summer and still managed to use it 3 or 4 times.  I'm happy for them!  Of course, I have yet to go camping with them in it.  I keep getting stuck at home taking care of Trin!

Speaking of Trin, back in March (on my birthday of all days!) she was diagnosed with diabetes.  It's been really tough on all of us, her the worst I'm sure.  You can't explain to a dog why it is that they no longer get all of the treats that they are used to, or that they don't get bits and pieces of whatever we are eating, and that 2 times a day she has to lay down and let us jab her with a needle, and let's not forget the weekly visits to the vet to check her levels.  Amazingly enough, she has been lots better about all of this than I had expected.  I think that she'd been sick for a very long time before it got bad enough for us to realize that there was a real issue.  So maybe she understands that what we are doing is making her feel better.  She certainly acts better!  Sometimes I think that she acts like she's a puppy again!  It's been pretty fun!

Well, I think that's all the big stuff that's happened!  See, I told you, I have a very uninteresting lfe!
