#9 The Sock Monkey

 I think this speaks for itself......

 

Thanks to the best mom in the world for making this a reality!

Keep checking the blog for pics of the sock monkey around the Upstate.

Update on the Sock Monkey:  For those of you that don't know, I went along for the Metromix/Link 2010 Halloween Pub Crawl and won Overall Best Costume. The experience was as close to celeb status as I hope to ever get. Click here for the link to the pub crawl photo gallery.

My monkey days are far from over so be on the lookout!

#8 Join a Young Professionals Group

While I still can....(just kidding)

It has been a long week so I can't muster up enough strength to be my normal charming and funny self. My apologies.

Now on to the topic at hand.

I held out for as long as I could and now I have finally joined PULSE, Greenville's young professional's group. My reasons for never doing so are part stupid and part lazy but with my new found love of being involved in the community, I thought I was a great idea. Two events down and I'm already on a committee. But I didn't stop there and why would I? I am now also officially involved with the Southern Economic Development Council's (SEDC) young professionals group as well. And you guessed it, on a committee and chairing an event.

The old (actually younger) me got a lot more sleep and had a lot more free time. Do I miss her?
