I miss Nanny.

Well, I'm back at school. Not quite sure how I feel about it. I was basically alone all weekend because my parents went to Ocean Shores and my brother was busy with stuff. But I was glad to stay and take care of the dogs so my parents could have a weekend away. I kind of feel like I need another week of spring break. I didn't feel like I had much of a break. And I'm ok with it because the things that were done during break were worth it. Bridal shower for Angela turned out really fun, and although stressful, worth it. And honestly, I don't know what happened to half my week. I don't feel like I felt it with my family but I didn't really do anything. And then the weekend I spent chilling with the dogs and watching the first season of Arrested Development. (Hilarious show by the way...)

I did start my new diet of no dairy. And also my running. That was productive. :-) It's going well. Running is easy (besides my knee hurting after about a mile...at first it hurt after 1/2 mile, but I've gotten it up to a mile now!) and no dairy...well my stomach is having a hard time adjusting but I think it'll turn out well.

So like previously stated, I'm back at school. I wish I could spend more time with my family. Go to a movie with my mom and out to lunch (we didn't get to do that last week...) and stuff like that. Have a family dinner together. Maybe next week. But I'm excited. I only have class two days a week (tues/thurs) for four hours. Mon/Wed/Fri will be spent studying and doing a photography internship at the Redmond Reporter. That will be 15 hours a week. I'm really excited for it! Should be fun and also a learning experience. I'm getting 5 credits for it and they pay for my gas milage. :-)

So...it is ten years today since Nanny died (my grandma) from ASL, or otherwise known as Lou Gherig's disease. And I find it ironic that my family found out that my grandparent's old house in woodinvile is for sale. It is worth $800,000 but is being sold for $480,000 because it is now in foreclosure. I looked through the pictures of the house and I remember it SO well. Just looking at the pictures of the empty rooms made me cry because I have so many memories in them with Nanny and my family. If I had the money to, I would buy that house in a second. We're all trying to convince someone in my family to buy it. :-) Wouldn't that be nice?

Anyways, check it out...its a beautiful house! http://windermere.com/lid35049231
