Phone Pictures

I took a picture of Zoe today and realized I've taken a couple of pictures lately I should share with everyone  else.  I hope some of these make you smile!

I had a coupon to a pet store around here that allowed Zoe to get her nails clipped for free.  Zoe's grandma (my mom) usually clips her nails since I'm too scared to, but since she's half way across the country it's not a viable option.  While at the pet place, I couldn't help but notice they had the CUTESTTTTT puppies!  I would never buy a pet from a pet store, especially around here since there are so many puppy mills in Kansas and Missouri :( I did spend a lot of time with this little pup and my heart melted.  I texted Ryan asking if we could get Zoe a wiener dog brother, and his response was "not if you still want a husband."  Sigh.

I feel like we have gotten a LOT of snow here the last couple of months.  One day it is 65, and the next we have 4 inches of snow and it doesn't melt for weeks.  The kids that live near us made these cute snowmen a couple of weeks ago.  Don't you love the sunglasses??

It was sleeting one day while driving to work, and as I'm driving 70 mph on the highway in this mess, my driver side windshield wiper decides to completely flop over and make it almost impossible to see.  It actually made me laugh because my wiper was literally flopping in the wind, but I soon realized I could no longer see and I had a problem.  I managed to make it to work by leaning over and driving very slow while looking out the passenger side window.  Ryan came and fixed it at my store when he get off of work, but it broke the next day. And the day after.  New. car. please.

When I get home from work, I like to plop down on the couch for a few minutes, not talk to anyone, check out Facebook and just relax after a long day.  Zoe often isn't okay with this, and will poke her long nose over my computer screen to get attention.  This little face always wins my attention! 

Notice all of the stuffing on the ground?  Zoe does this to all of her toys, about 5 minutes after getting it.  

Radford

I ran across a friend's Facebook page today where it made me start thinking about my years in college.

I miss them.

I can still remember showing up to Bolling Hall the first day to start unpacking my things.  I had no clue Kendall and I would become good friends, and I also had NO idea what kind of fun I would have the next 4 years.  I found out a lot about myself, and I will ALWAYS think of Radford as one of the happiest times of my life.

However, I will never miss the late nights and many trips to McDonnell Library.  I won't miss being broke all of the time.

When I was at the College of Business and Economics,  I spent the last two years of school in a tiny, old building called Whitt Hall.  Pretty, but small.  And old.

Whitt Hall came my home not only for classes, but for all of the time I spent with the American Marketing Association.

NOW, RU has received $34 million from the state and will raise another $10 to complete THIS College of Business and Economics building:

Woah, woah and WOAH.  This building is HUGE!!! I wonder if this one will have air conditioning? :)

I'm happy for all of the business students that will get to study in this building.  In a way, seeing the soon to be construction of this building makes me feel older.  Once it's completed, us business students from the class of '06 will have to say "I remember when...." rather then "It feels like yesterday...".  Sigh.

College, I miss you!
