Life.

No pictures. I just feel like blogging. Mainly because I feel disgusted when my blog reaches the 5 week unupdated status. So it's all changing here and now. After reading the following, consider yourself updated on the life of the Mr. and Mrs. Steve Jensen family.

-The school teaching year is close to half way through. For this I am happy and sad... but lately, mostly happy.
-We are 26 weeks along- 14 more to go. Wahoo! Baby is happy, healthy and kicking like a jalepeno. I am and have been perfectly fine through out the 26 weeks (...aside from the overwhelming emotional stampedes that take over my soul every now and then. Just had one tonight. I was distraught over the idea of ever being divorced from Steve. I called him at work sobbing. I am now okay and all is well. No divorce in our future. I am reassured :) We are seriously considering a small list of names now- to be mentioned and voted on in a future entry. I can still bend over with out falling, most of the time.
-Steve finished a month long training in november, and another week long training after that. We are so proud of him. More certifications under his belt is a good thing.
-I accompanied my sistah, her little family and my dad and moving truck on an excursion to Gridley last month.
-I saw my family for 1.5 days. This was a short but sweet fix I definitely needed.
-As of last wednesday night, I have completely finished any and all classes required for my teaching certificate. I now can teach any secondary level class (kinda scary). I think I'll stick with art.
-Finished one commission (oil painting) for Christmas for my dear friend Melanie.
-Working on one more Christmas commission I want done by the 12th. Sorry for anti-socialness. These last two updates are the reason.
-I seriously need to update my website for all those of you who want to see pics.
-Steve's been a sweet brother and uncle and has been babysitting his two nephews for the last week afternoons to evenings, and will continue to this week. awww :)
-Had Steve's work party last night. Was really nice to see the Rays and all the brotherhoodness of firefighters there with their wives... and eat the most lovely chocolate cake I've ever experienced. I don't love cake either. mmmm.
-Our house is in the process of "being sold". No new updates, we're ready for it to take around 3-6 more months-ish. That's just our gut instincts speaking.
-We are freezing our booties off in the -50 degree weather. Spring is just around the corner...... just...around...the... we can hope it comes early.
- We also are enjoying the Christmas season. It just feels nice. The world feels nice. It's because everybody innately, truly believes in Jesus, even if they deny it. It's ingrained in the truth of the world. Don't fight me on this. The earth speaks truth. It's truth is felt during Christmas.
-We are happy, well, and hope you all are too.
