 1.This week on Totes Awesome Channel, the other girls seem to be recouping from VEDA but Nicole and I thought we’d still upload videos. Youtube Link For those without video capabilities, I talk about how this week I feel particularly old for two reasons. My high school ten year reunion is this weekend and as a child I thought only old people went to their high school reunion. The second reason: I received an unexpected lecture from a new doctor about how I should start planning for kids soon since after the age of 35, it gets biologically much more difficult for women. The verbal assault lasted up to 5 minutes and was neatly closed with a, “7 years will pass really quickly!” Thanks, doctor! P.S. Please subscribe to our channel or my personal one! 2.Speaking of high school reunions, it’s not going to be so crazy to see the bunch of girls (I went to a private all girl’s school) who can make it this weekend. For starters, most of us are friends on Facebook and still close friends with a handful of each other. When I stalk them on Facebook, it’s so refreshing to see other classmates in their wedding photos or vacation photos. My BFF is a HS classmate.

So far I haven’t met quota on my week nights, but averaging 5 hours a night is still better than the recent average of 4 hours. Still working hard at this. 5. Bob has opened up and is such a mischievous puppy now! I find that I break out in hives when he licks or scratches me and they only happen at areas of contact. I don’t want to give him up so I’ve been wearing jeans when I remember to at home and trying to train him not to lick me or jump on me. He’s just too cute! 6.It’s almost been a full month of living with a boyfriend. It was a bit rough adjusting at first and I found that I’m a little bit of a control freak. It’s starting to feel comfortable and I like it.
