Home Sweet Guate

I am going through crazy Guatemala withdrawals today. I got to skype with Olivia in Guate today and that just  made me miss it so much more. It was so nice to hear her voice again though! I have been so busy the last couple weeks that I haven't been able to talk to her really.

The other day I was walking through the mall and I saw this little girl who was probably 3 years old with a HUGE bow on top of her head talking to her mama in Spanish, it just about made my heart jump out of my body. I wanted to scoop her up and take her home. She reminded me of all my babies in Guate.

The boys that I nanny for are crazy and so busy that they keep me on my feet all day and usually I am dead tired when I get home but I enjoy it, and it is helping me save to get back to where my heart is. I am planning on heading to UBCO in Sept. for my Social Work degree and I hope that goes by fast. I am sure I will enjoy it though.

I'm Back

I have been away from this blog for quite awhile! If you want to catch up on what I have been up to check out my travel blog at: http://twisteroffate.blogspot.ca/
Now that I am back at home it is time to get back into the swing of things... school, work, rehearsals, pets, family, responsibilities, blah blah blah. Who doesn't enjoy a good long vacation? And who doesn't wish they were still there when they back to all this stuff they need to do! I sure do.

My grandma moved in with my mom a little while ago and is adjusting well, but now my mom has decided to up and run off to Europe for a month mid May, leaving me in charge of my Grandma who is ailing and needs a lot of help and reassurance. So with throwing another full time job on top of everything makes it just crazy..I will need all the help and patience I can get.

Wednesday is the opening for my theater production, "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", so things have been crazy with that, A few long long nights of rehearsal coming up.
Also, tomorrow I am going to meet up with a great old friend I had when I was a kid, we both have changed a lot but I am looking forward to seeing her and spending some time getting to know each other again!

So, that's all for now, but I will be on this blog much more often now, so stay tuned!
