Since I last wrote many things have happened, including:
- Moving rooms in the apartment (my new roommate's name is Sam)
- Family visiting for a weekend earlier in the month. It was wonderful seeing them and showing them around my new world.
- Saying goodbye to my dear friend Nick. His program ended so he went back home to Michigan. I have yet to find a "replacement friend".
- Flying home for Landon's first birthday! He's growing up to be such a character!
- Creating a guest magical moment by explaining the whole pin trading process and then giving them a pin to get started in the craze themselves.
I'm sure more has happened, but those are the things that are standing out at the moment. Today was very busy in itself. I learned how to make water art (

I had a little girl start up a conversation with me while I was closing a restroom. She was in a stall and just randomly asked if I was the cleaning lady. I said yes I was and we ended up talking for about 10 minutes. I'm sure her parents were a bit worried that she had been in the restroom for so long, but I made sure she got back to her family safe and sound after our conversation was done. Then I had a lady approach me and tell me I have a very strong positive energy. She gave me her card and said to give her a call if I wanted her to do a psychic reading. Personally, I think all that stuff is pretty sketch, but it put me in a good mood to be told that. Then I dealt with my first unattended bag situation. I suppose to most people, that's not very exciting, but custodians get excited about the small things.
Well I hope everyone had a wonderful summer and is ready to head back to school! Have a magical day!
