Woefully Behind

Okay, so there really is no reason that we haven't been updating...we've just been busy!

We finished off the semester quite well, especially considering how sick I'd been and how much time that took away from school. We were blessed! :-) We are now in our 3rd week of Spring term and we are so very busy! We're both taking classes, working, and trying to figure out the future. Justin is busy updating his portfolio with his "free" time (don't ask me how he has any since he is working 30+ hours a week AND going to school) and I'm just constantly tired.

My classes are very fun, though! Mainly, my water aerobics one. I thought it would be a little bit easier than what it is...but it is actually a work out! It's great! my arms are getting toned from all the swimming/weights we use and I've upgraded from using both a floaty belt and a noodle to JUST a floaty belt. My teacher is so proud. You'd be surprised how much 20 extra pounds can wear you out in the pool! There are four pregnant ladies in the class, and one day when 3 of us were there we did our perimeter warm up (no legs, just use arms to get around the pool) and after one time around, all 3 of us jumped out and grabbed our noodles. Our teacher was like, "Do you guys not have belts?" "No, we do! We just get so out of breath so easily these days!" She said that was a valid excuse.
With that class, though, we meet 4 days a week, so it's a great schedule. I'm starting to smell chlorine. After about 3 days of the class, Justin and I were having FHE and we're sitting on the couch and he says, "I'm trying to figure out why you smell like Elise." (For those who don't know, Elise is my old roommate/good friend who was on the swim team for all of college and smelled like chlorine all the time). It's a great experience! We also play water polo every Thursday, the last class of the week. Apparently I'm really aggressive. My only explanation is: I can't play soccer right now. I've gotta get my aggression out somewhere!

Um, other than classes and such, things have been going well! We're just trying to figure out job-wise what we will be doing in August, since Justin and I both graduate and therefore lose our student jobs on campus. :-)
