Disjointed Update

Sorry I haven't updated in quite some time. This summer has been incredible busy. With groups coming and going I never have time to sit down and breathe it seems, let alone write.

I am really loving my new job. I feel that I am really getting back into the groove of facilitating on a regular basis. I am able to fully engage all of my students most of the time, which is an accomplishment, while I too am having a good time! It's like a win-win! I am desperately missing my friends back in Columbia, which is compounded by all the fabulous Twitter updates and texts from 3Crown! Which isn't to say I don't appreciate them whole-heartedly, but makes me wish I had stayed another year.

I have also discovered how much of that E in ENFP I truly am. I have come to really not like my days off here as I don't really do anything with anyone. I forgot how much I have not having a large group of folks in my general age range to be social with. It was a problem when I was in Chicago and it is here as well. I must figure out how to over-come this negative aspect of my situation. I completely love everything else, but the lack of other people around here is difficult for me.

I am very much looking forward to the AEE conference in Vegas in November, where I will be presenting. It's also kind of cool that 2 other people affiliated with my organization will also be presenting which is pretty cool!

Even more than that I am looking forward to a very special wedding in Jackson in October. It will really cool to get away for a weekend and see some beautiful faces.

I am also trying to find a time, maybe for a football game to return to Carolina. This would be the last year I really know anyone there, so if I am ever going to go back this would be the time. Any suggestions?

Sorry for this disjoined updated. They will get back on schedule from this point and much more coherent. Sorry for keeping you all holding your breath for no valid reason!
