I haven't posted in a while (OK, I DID post yesterday but it's been a while since before that... sheesh people!).

This is what I've been up to lately:

Sewing by hand ~ My sewing machine broke. I can't find a replacement part but I can't afford to buy a new one yet either. I had really wanted to surprise my mom with a dress I was making, and had designed, but she walked in on me while I was trying it on. To be fair, she did knock. I just didn't have time to change before she got suspicious and opened the door. I probably deserve that...lol.

Working ~ It's not a huge job BUT it is about the only time I can afford to be away from school work and home so it works perfect for me... just enough money for some shopping. What else can a girl want? Plus, I like it so it's fun! I'm helping a lady at our church with some house work. Ms. GG is pretty cool! 

School ~ Yeah, that... I'm trying to finish up two years at once. I can do it. I just want to be done already. Two cousins have taken their GED. I'm wondering if I should go that route, too. It'd be so easy just to be finished! I'm looking forward to hopefully starting college in the fall.

Reading ~ I like reading so I'm reading lots... school books, books for fun, Bible, and everything else in between. I borrowed a book that is about being a good wife in the 18th and 19th century. It's been a good read with lots of laughs. The author definitely knew her stuff and how to write to keep your attention. I would say many things have changed since then, though. Some good. Some bad. But, all in all, there are many things that have stayed the same.

Cooking ~ Once a month, my mom and I put together a menu and cook a Wednesday night dinner for our church. This week is our week and we are making pork medallions w/ gravy, egg noodles, steamed veggies, and dessert. It's hard work cooking for about 50 people but we like it. Besides, my husband won't have to worry about me knowing how to cook when we get married...lol.

That's about it. I'll try to post more often instead of making you wait for EVER for an update. I know you just can't wait to read what I write.. HA! HA HA HA!

Until next time,

Victoria
