The road just forks...in Colorado!

So I'm writing a quick note to quiet the complaints. Last week was DeMolay's Conclave. I was able to travel to their Formal Opening Thursday and Installation and Dance on Saturday. Luckily, I was not alone in my travels. I drove Samantha King, Carolyn Winebar and Brittany Winebar- my GBSP. If you ever get a chance to ask her for her impression of the toothless customer in the Greenfield Burger King who gave us directions...you will not be disappointed. Congratulations to James on your election as State Master Councilor. I am looking forward to see how deserving you feel you are of your Grand Bethel title. Congratulations to Samantha Bertram the newly elected DeMolay State Sweetheart.

So now we're in Colorado Springs, CO. The flight was good. My mom made friends which is always a plus. The hotel is really nice but no wireless in the room :(. I guess Hot in Cleveland will have to wait. So far I love Colorado and am seriously considering moving here. We're going to the Air Force Academy tomorrow for a church service and breakfast at the Officer's club. I've seen some Indiana people here and there but everyone seems to still be recovering from their trips. We found the pools and gym. My goal is to lay out every day. I feel that it is a very attainable goal.

FYI- I moved last week my new address is 2040 W. 79th Street, Indianapolis, IN 46260. I love my new apartment and am almost unpacked. I love my new roommate and puppy. But I am not excited about the new job- which is the same job but at the Panera in Carmel instead of Noblesville.

Getting off here to do something fun.

About Me

My name is Elecia and I am the current GBHQ of Indiana, Job's Daughters International. It's almost been a month since Grand Session and things have fallen into place. In a week I leave for Supreme Session in Colorado Springs, CO. I'm excited for white-water rafting and Pike's Peak. I think I'm more excited to have a break from work. Maybe I'll retire after my return from Supreme. ;)

A little about me...
I'm originally from Yorktown, IN which is near Muncie if you weren't aware. I moved to Bloomington, IN for school at Indiana University. I graduated in 2009 with a BA in Criminal Justice and Psychology. I miss Bloomington a lot and can't wait for their OV so I can bring home some Mother Bear's pizza- you wouldn't judge if you knew. Now I live in Indianapolis on the northside near Meridian.

My parents are very supportive of me and my Job's endeavors. For those of you who do not know, Bonita Ramirez is my mom. I know that the different last names create a lot of confusion so I thought I would clear that up. My sister, Raquel Ray, is also on GB Exec.

I am very easy-going and like almost everything but I get distracted and lost interest easily so I keep things changing. I like music especially Carbon Leaf- a group out of Richmond, VA. I like watching ridiculous shows on TV that probably cause my IQ to drop at each episode. I love my friends. Dislikes- the color red, people with long nails who scratch their skin, the color gold, the sound of people swallowing, and teter bugs (centipedes).

I'm looking forward to a great year and I am going to try to write at least semi-regularly. Please comment on my posts. If no one reads this, there's no reason to write it.

JL,
