I am horrible at this!

So, with the busy life I have and the random funny things that happen while traveling all the time, combined with baseball making me crazy and our weekend excitement, you would think I would have lots to talk about.  Of course, as you know, I am never someone short on words anyway, but I guess time just gets away from me.

It's been a very busy recent few months - from traveling almost weekly (the weeks I am not are the weeks Jason is traveling) to enjoying a little down time and just this week starting school back up for the semester. 

Here's a quick brief update:
The Cardinals have decided to make a strong downward spiral out of playoff contention... boo - BUT my boyfriend Skip had his major league pitching debut this past week which was both exciting (with 2 SO) and disappointing (giving up a homerun to former teammate Aaron Miles).  But all in all, not to shabby for someone that hasn't pitched since college!  Of course the other funny thing that happened was the moth that flew into Matt Holliday's ear and once they finally got it out, he kept it!  Wow - what is going on with these boys of summer?!

Work is going awesome - I have been with Academy for over 5 months now and it has been AMAZING!  In those 5 months I have gotten to go to many cities all over, to name a few... New Orleans, LA, Lafayette, LA, Springfield, MO, Fort Worth, TX, Austin, TX, San Antonio, TX, McAllen, TX, Midland, TX and there are more to go with that!  It's been great though and I have already gotten to start reaping the benefits of my travels, quickly progressing through elite statuses with airline and hotel points.  Can't wait for that trip one day that will be free courtesy of rewards points... :-)

My brother left for Korea about 3 weeks ago now for his 1 year assignment.  I will be e-mailing, writing and sending care packages to try to help time pass and keep him updated on anything I hear going on around here.  Also - keep the prayers coming for my Grandma Haselhorst, she is doing better than before but she has been having some rough times recently with her health.  I appreciate it!

I am happy to announce that my life will change in about 8.5 months... I WILL GRADUATE!  Get your heads out of the gutter... you know me better than to have a child without finishing school... sheesh!  I started school back up this week to complete the first of my last 2 semesters.  Very exciting!!!  I find myself longing for November when I can apply for graduation.  I also find myself thinking... what am I going to do after I graduate?  What will I do with my extra time?  Will one masters be enough?  Do I go back again for another?  Do I get my PhD?  Do I sit back and enjoy just traveling and hanging out with my hubby?  Do we consider starting a family?  What will this mean for me and my job?  Will I get a promotion?  Will I get an increase?  Will it matter at all? 

Way too many questions cross my mind about the land of the unknown in May... but at least I am trying to think about those things so when May comes there won't be near as many questions to answer.

Anyway - there is my brief update - thanks for reading and I won't promise anything about when my next post will be, just know I will be glad for you to read it when I do... :-)
