Governors, Birthdays and Challenges

So first off I am sorry for the hassle of having to make my blog private! I was actually super bummed about it and liked the fact that anyone could read my blog... however I now work for a state agency where I have to be super careful with what I post so better to be safe than sorry... at least for right now. 

It’s been kind of an up and down past few weeks. From work drama, to traveling, personal drama, and just an all around crazy time adjusting to my new life. Work hasn't been super busy the last week I haven’t had a ton going on at work other than doing a few stories for the UDOT blog. My first story done all by myself is up on it now! The link to it is here:http://blog.udot.utah.gov/. 

Yesterday was quite the eventful day however, I went with a girl named Kristen from my work, she is the Policy and Stakeholder Assistant so in simplified terms, she works with complicated bills and the legislature. Anyway we went to the state capitol for a bill that was being signed by the Governor. Democratic Senator Mayne helped pass a bill establishing Workplace Safety Week and another bill dealing with Worker's compensation. I wasn't entirely sure what all was going on but I was in the pictures! Which are here!   

You can see the tip of my head in the back and that's Gov. Herbert signing the bill. 

Well today is my Dad's 56th Birthday! Yup I called you out on it Dad. And I just wanted to let him know how grateful for him I am! He has been so encouraging and helpful whenever I have needed him and I am grateful to have him as a dad! LOVE YOU!!!!

It's been a challenging week for me but I am so grateful I have such a wonderful family that supports me and is there for me, and that's all I have to say about this week for now! :)
