MIA

so sorry, blog world.

it's been quite some time since i last posted.

life has gotten crazy, let me tell you.

some basic updates and excuses as to why i've been away:

i got moved to a new department (I think that's when i disappeared)

i worked in said department for a month.

then i got hired on at pinnacle again part time in the evenings.

then APT laid me off.

then they hired me again back in Triage for the permanent position.

previously i was working through a temp agency.

and now (hopefully) in two months, i'll be hired on at APT.

which equals health benefits, two weeks paid vacation, just plain goodness.

so now i am working at APT from 6am-2:30pm

and then at Pinnacle from 3pm-8pm (hopefully switching to 7pm)

then it's off to bed at 9:30pm.

aka: no room to do anything.

fortunately i have saturday off at APT and only work 10-3 at pinnacle.

and then i get a day off (usually monday) at pinnacle.

So Sunday is pretty much the best day ever.

so that basically sums up the chaos in my life.

i fortunately still get to see b.

and if he moves into the 'bugalow'

(the little house on his dad's company's property, also where b works)

he'll be a 5 minute drive from APT.

In addition to work chaos,

my brother and sister-in-law moved to Seattle this weekend.

I will miss them so incredibly much.

in a nutshell:

they're obviously top 10 cutest family material.

Seattle is really lucky to have them.

And I'm so excited for this new chapter in their lives.

But I will miss them dearly.

I love you, Jor, Marie, Matt, Lucy & Anna.

And that concludes all the prominent changes in my life.

i promise i'll be better at posting.

photography giveway!

k, so i know i've disappeared for awhile. but i just entered this giveaway and out of thousands of people, i SO totally hope i win.

(i hope you're reading this, crave photography)

:)

anywho.

i know i've been horrible at posting, 

and i'm sorry!

life's been busy busy.

because i just started in a new position!

i now no longer have access to idle internet time, and am instead doing something i love!

i work in a more technical department now, performing upgrades and whatnot,

and it's so much fun!

also, i got a $2 raise AND i work from 6am - 2:30pm

i've never ever been a morning person,

but this is totally working out.

i love love love it.

i shall update soon with more blogs!

pinky swear.

spring!

...is not here.

yet.

what is with this snow, utah?

i mean, i guess the answer's in the question.

it is utah, after all.

soon enough i'll be basking in sunshine.

until then, i just have to hold out.

so here's a news update!

i changed my business name from

kelli renee photography

to

kelli lebaron photography.

i feel it's a bit more professional, among other reasons.

so, due to this change, i also created a new facebook page.

i'm making a big effort to get this one out there.

so please please please like my page.

thank you :)

click here for my page.

and if you know of anyone who is in need of a photographer, please let me know!

thank you, thank you!

good times!

announcement!

for the first time since september..

i was able to fill up my gas tank!

horray!

this is how kelli's gas tank looks when it's

FULL

as you can see, it's a very happy gas tank.

(and a very dusty one, at that.)

and THIS, is how much is costs to have a happy gas tank.

 in case you can't see that, it's roughly 50 bones.

yuck.

but well worth it.

no one likes a sad gas tank.

snow?

tomorrow's the festival of colors and it's...

SNOWING?

let's just go ahead and cross THAT off our to do list for tomorrow.

what a bummer.

sometimes, utah, you suck.

okay, so remember how i sliced my finger open a few weeks ago?

WELL,

i have officially lost some nerve endings in my finger.

what a downer, right?

i actually feel kind of cool saying that i'm numb in one finger.

but it's still kind of sad, right?

oh. i gave up on no blogging.

cause whit was right.

it's my blog, by jingo!

thank you, readers, for staying ever so faithful. :)

blogging fanatic.

i think i need to take a break from blogger.

i feel as though i'm reflecting my facebook addiction onto blogger.

it's been a whole week off facebook.

proud?

i am.

but now i'm addicted to blogger and it's

bad. bad. bad.

i now have 19 followers (thank you very much)

and i would like to hear from you.

do i post too much?

be honest.

thank you :)

input.

do you think it's super weird that

in my spare time, 

i get myself completely sucked into celebrity twitter(s)?
(what exactly IS the plural of 'twitter' anyway?)

i don't really use twitter all that often

(like, at all)

but i love creeping on other's.

to be more specific,

i'm basically in love with zooey deschanel.

and i have a pretty good feeling that

if she had never become a celebrity,
and by some small chance (try microscopic)
we had grown up in the same neighborhood

we could have become best friends.
and spent afternoons braiding each other's hair.

i know, it's totally silly and unfathomable,

but really.
look at her.

 

celebrity crush?

i think maybe a little, yes.
