Sitting in English class. We just did an evaluation for our teacher which is weird seeing as how it is only halfway through the semester. I have nothing bad to say though because I have an A! I just got a B on my second Anthropology test, so I'll have to focus on that more. English is super easy though so that's awesome!!
Two weeks ago, Jess's friend got shot and killed because of a bar fight. Jess had known him since forever. He didn't have a gun and was talking crap and the guy who was fighting with him did have a gun. I hope that guy gets life in prison. Still praying for Wade Reader's friends and family as well as Krysta and her family.
My thoughts and prayers go out to all that are struggling with losing a loved one.
On a happier note,we've gotten to go to a few Komets hockey games lately..pretty cool. Our team is really good actually. They've won every game we've gone to and we've also gotten to witness a few really good fights! I can't wait until the Tin Caps baseball starts again. That's always so much fun and now Jess has Sundays off so maybe he can join Jack and I at more games!!!
Well, about to start class again. Thanks for reasing and stay tuned for more AmAzInG aDvEnTuReS form my life!!! (I know, it's so exciting, right?!)

Sad:(
I am sad because my best friend's mom just passed away. Not only does this suck for her and her family but I've known her mom for 12 years, so it sucks for me too. I may have to take her some wine to drown her sorrows with...I have no other way to make her feel better. This feels like a dream. Like it's not even real.
Please pray for her and her family. This has to be a horribly difficult time for them.
I wish I could make them feel better/happier. I am praying for them as well.
Thanks,
Sarah

Not really an update I guess
School, Work, Husband, Kid....don't know how I do it when I stop and think....so I don't normally.
I have been very busy lately so I haven't had a lot of time to type...and we don't have the internet at home either so I have to find time at school or on lunch at work. Still don't have a computer at work so I would have to find a computer to use too. Lots of extra energy goes into blogging for me!
I am so excited for all the pregnant people I know. It must be my age, but it seems like I always know so many pregnant people!!! I am not one of them...yet!:)
Just wanted to say hi really...
And...I love my life! Never to busy for enjoying what you're doing!
Stay tuned....

Happy (belated) New Year!
Hello all! Happy New Year!
Not much going on lately...lots of changes for the new year at work, but that's about it. Jack is turning 3 this Wednesday!! Oh my goodness, how time flies! I am excited to have friends and family at Chuck E Cheese to celebrate. It should be fun. Right now, Jack is recovering from broncitus (sp?) and he has a really bad ear infection. The doctor said it was the worst she had seen in years and if an adult had it they would be complaining non-stop. Jack never complains but has a little that the inside of his ear hurts. I am very blessed to have such a tough child.
Jess and I are headed to Detroit tomorrow for the weekend for my annual conference for work. It's a "work hard" year, so we have to do lots of work stuff but Jess is looking forward to getting a lot of writing done and I am looking forward to spending a lot of alone time with Jess!!
Oh yeah, I am in 2 college courses this semester. Anthropology and English. They are very interesting and lots of fun. I like both classes a lot. I think I am changing my major back to Speech Language Pathology (but don't quote me on that)! I really enjoy being in school and hope to attend 4 classes a semester starting in the fall. I view school as my alone time every week. It keeps me sane and is my thing that doesn't involve anyone but myself!
I have also started attending a Zumba class every week and I love it! Zumba is an exercise class that is aerobics and salsa-y dancing all in one. It really works for my schedule and fitness! I think I may start going more often!
Jess just got switched over to the Maysville store and is opening so we get nights off together! Yay! For so long I have wanted him to be at home with us at night...it is quite different and will definitely take some adjusting, but it will be great! I didn't realize how much of a homebody I was until Jess started making all these plans with people on week nights. I do not like that at all, but am willing to compromise I guess. That's what marriage is all about!!!
That's about it for now I guess. I'll keep y'all updated!
Stay tuned for more AmAzInG aDvEnTuReS!!!

Updates
Once again, I have been told to update my blog...so, Mom, this one's for you!!!
Hmm...where do I start? Well, I am working this week and was just told that since the boss isn't here, I am the boss and not to be afraid to make changes or step on people's toes! It's a good thing seeing as how I want to move up in the company & I feel like I am getting a chance to shine right now. Although now I have to come up with ways to be more effective within a week! It's ok, I like challenges!!!
Christmas was wonderful at the Voirol household. This was the first year Jess & I actually got each other gifts, so that was fun. I got him a bunch of boxers (among other things) which he laughed at and said was "such a Dad gift". Jack said he liked his presents and LOVES Christmas, so I think he's happy. He's currently obsessed with his new Bumblebee arm, his automatic Nerf guns and his Monster truck. The other day when we got home he said he had missed his Bumblebee arm! It was so cute!
Christmas at the In-laws and my parents' house was also good. Lots of good presents and especially good company!!! I love spending time with the family!!!
Jack and I went to Brownstown on Saturday with my parents to visit my grandparents. They seemed to be doing well, except I'm not sure they knew Friday was Christmas!! I guess it's just another day for some! Visiting with them was great and Jack was SUPER good at their house and at the 2 restaurants we went to that day, so I was a happy camper! (Bribery works wonders with small children!)
My brother turned 27 today! I feel like we're all getting so old!! I still don't feel like I'm 25!! More like 21....minus the partying! I am glad that he is fairly untouched from his accident a couple weeks ago (considering it could've been MUCH worse). It's good to have him around. Meddling in his personal life is also fun for me!
Tomorrow we are having another Voirol Christmas at our house just for fun. A few more presents (I still have to get!) and fun times with our cousin, Allen. We like to stretch the holiday out for as long as possible!!!
I'll try to blog more often, but as you all know, life gets in the way!!!
For now, those are my AmAzInG aDvEnTuReS!!!
Stay tuned & Merry Christmas!!!

My Hangover Cure
For those who have a hangover at work....(the 2 people that I know read this probably never have a hangover at work, but just in case....):
Here's what I do, actually I did it today becaues I was severely hungover from having fun last night!
~Even though you won't want to get up..DO IT! If you don't, you will just end up laying in bed worrying about work and feeling crappy all day.
~Immediately down atleast 1 glass of water and (only) 2 excedrin (or whatever you take) extra strength.
~Take a shower. You won't want to, but trust me, it helps a lot. Cold showers are better than hot, but whatever strikes your fancy. If you fail to shower, you will reek like you were out drinking all night and even though you were, you DO NOT want your boss and co-workers to know.
~Brush you teeth, but if you're feeling nauseaus (sp?) abstain from brushing your tongue (that is, if you normally brush it). Your gag reflex is not ready for that so early in the day after such a night!
~Take the time to get ready for work like you do every other day. If you do not take this time, it will be noticed and your cover will be blown.
~If you do not feel ANY better or perky by now, when you get to work (as long as all the steps have been taken), tell everyone you simply do not feel good. This works as a cover in case later in the day you are caught with your head on your desk or you end up puking.
~Drink another glass/bottle of water when you arrive at work.
~After said glass/bottle, drink whatever you choose (coffee, pop, etc...)
~At lunch, if you tan or aren't against tanning, go. This always helps me feel better. I feel as though I sweat out some more alcohol & you can nap while getting nice & bronzed!!! (Make sure you bring deodorant, lotion, etc...so you don't smell sweaty when you get back to work).
~For lunch, eat whatever you can stomach, but make sure it's some sort of fast food. The greasier the better and by lunchtime you should be able to stomach something. I like a Subway sub and cherry coke or a nice double cheeseburger meal with a diet coke. (I ate the latter today for lunch and I feel great!)
~after you wat lunch and finish whatever your drink was for lunch, drink more water.
~By now you should feel somewhat normal & probably just a bit tired. If you don't, you probably already gave up and went home sick.
~Finish your work day staying hydrated and always lean on the not feeling good thing.
~After work, go home and chill out. Drink water. Go to bed early. And next time you want to drink or go out on a night when you have to work the next morning, remember today and how crappy you felt. It'll stop you for atleast a week from doing it again!
Hope this helped!

What would it cost to make the world a better place?
Question:
When you are stuck in a work environment with a negative person who is not ever nice to anyone in the workplace and you must work with this person to get the job done, what do you do?
In my life, I typically avoid negative people. The problem is: I have to work with a negative person on a daily basis to get my job done accurately. So, what do I do? I do not know the answer to this question. I have been avoiding this person unless I have to work with them or ask them a question. Just today I asked him a question and he immediately snapped at me because he was working on something. Ok, we were on an intercom from my office to his office from which we cannot see each other, so how am I supposed to know he is working on something he cannot get away from at that moment? If he had not snapped at me and just told me he was busy please give him a minute, I would have been happy to comply. Alas, he did not, he just snapped at me for bugging him when in fact I had a question about the exact thing he happened to be working on at the time. hmmm...
I always reply to his negativity with positivity because I believe it is contagious. I am coming to the end of my rope however of being nice and cordial with him because he pisses me off every time I speak with him!
I sit here and bitch and moan about it and say "I won't put up with it" and yet I am also sitting here thinking, "yes, I will. I will put up with it to get the job done & I am going to continue to be cordial and yes, even positive because that is who I am."
I guess I just don't understand why some people are so negative all the time. Ok, so you hate your life or current life situation or maybe even your job. 1: Is this MY fault? 2: If you don't like your current situation; CHANGE IT!
Easier said than done, I know, but this is what I struggle with on a daily basis whether it be about some big issue in my life or something small like always having a dirty house. I, along with all other people in the universe deal with many uncomfortable, not-so-perfect situations in our lives on a daily basis. Wouldn't the world be such a better place if we could all be nice to one another? I think it would. And what would it hurt?...NOTHING! And what would it cost?... NOTHING!
Maybe I am delusional, but I truely believe everyone could be nice to each other and more understanding and we could all live in a better world! Oh well, I can't change everyone, so I guess I'll just work on myself!!
Thanks for reading!
