Update!

Dut Dut Du Duuuuuu!

I am pleased to announce that I, Tara Andrus, am a proud recipient of an Associates Degree!

Yay! I am so happy to have finished this, it means that I am officially half way done with my degree (actually only a year away!).

My mom and sisters all have their associates and its nice to say that although I may not have their equivalent in life experiences, I do have their equivalent in education, this is definitely a boost to my "Little Sister Self-Esteem"





In other news....

Check out those SWEET pink spots on my hand! Yesterday morning I was browning stew meat to put in the crock pot for dinner and the hot oil sloshed onto my hand when I dropped it in. OUCH! Its actually a pretty neat battle wound, I'd say. If you look closely to the one in the middle and the one on the right side of my wrist you can actually see drip marks from the oil, kinda cool. It burned for a while, I put ice and ointment on it but it just wouldn't stop burning. So at my Dad's suggestion I made an online search for home remedies. I found two I tried. The first was vinegar, it wasn't too successful. The second was honey. I put the honey on and within a minute the burn- or pain I should say- was absolutely gone! I couldn't believe it! Honey is the new miracle drug, tell your friends! :)
