So it's once again been two months since I have updated this thing. I wish I had some good excuse, but the honest truth is, its easier to just log in and read about all of your lives, then to spend time writing.
A few holidays have come and gone. New Years (which I stayed home and was boring), Valentines Day (don't even ask… dumb holiday) and Presidents day (a great excuse for having a three day weekend), maybe for St Patrick's Day, I will actually go out for a change.
Job is stressful. I find myself leaving the house at the unheard of hour of 6:30 am and rarely getting home before 7:30 pm. I have learned the horrors of traffic, and scouted out alternatives around the dreaded freeway. Friday mornings I have a 4-hour class, which accounts for a little bit of the crazy work hours the rest of the week. Time sheets claim I work 9-hour days M-Th and 4 hours on Friday. Actual time spent at work - add 10 or more hours to that.
To counteract some of the frustration and annoyance of the JOB, I joined the GYM (another three letter word for Hell). My endurance is picking up… too bad the weight isn't falling off faster. I would love to actually spend a Saturday shopping for clothes in smaller sizes.
My dad is coming to visit for Easter. I asked the boss for tickets to a couple of basketball games that weekend. He was very obliging. Nice thing about working in Radio, there is very little you can't find tickets for. Speaking of, I went to the Supernova concert. Eh, maybe in a year, after they figure out how to perform as a band, they will be better. Good sound, lousy stage presence.
My brother called this weekend, and I am expecting another niece or nephew in September. I am so excited. Being an aunt is the most favorite part of my life. Looks like I am going to put off my May vacation for September and go home for the arrival of the littlest family member. Hopefully this one will be on the due date. I have tried to be around for the other three, but either they decided to arrive a week early, or two weeks late. Typical. :)
Other than that, things are pretty normal. The cats have grown into full size terrors, and while I hate the hours, the job is by far better than it has been in a year. School is easy, so maintaining the GPA isn't a problem and the family is healthy and happy. Even my grandmother has been declared cancer free.
The neighbor and his cute friends are knocking on the glass door. Guess its time to bar-b-que and flirt a little. I love single neighbors with single friends *evil grin*
Looks like 2007 is shaping up to be much better than '06.
Love ya all,
Kisses Kittens.
