Hi everyone.
It’s pretty here right now with the leaves turning and it’s getting freaking cold already. I’m loving it. Except not scraping the ice off my winsheild in the morning.
Things are work are fine. I got a 40 cent raise. I didn’t get the highest amount because my leadership skills are that great. I didn’t expect it. I know I’m not a good supervisor. I only took the job because I couldn’t afford to take a cut in pay, not because I was setting my sights on be GM some day. I’m trying harder though.
Went out last night for the first time since being up here. Pretty boring, but it was nice seeing people.
Weekend before last we had girl day. My sister E, Erin and myself spent the day doing things. We headed up to Mass to Yankee Candle, but stopped along the way to see other things. Was a very nice day.
The kids are doing great in school. Tomorrow the boys start REACH. It’s some free after school things. AJ is taking an hour of board games and then and hour of Karate. Matt is taking an hour of board games and then an hour of Improv. I wish he would have taken Karate also. He really needs the exercise. Still it’s great for them to be doing other things.
The hubby got a job (not sure if I’ve written about that or not). Not sure how long it will last, but it’s been about three weeks are so. I’m crossing my fingers. It’s doesn’t pay much at all, but it’s something. He also go in a wreck the other night. Now we have a big ticket to pay and our insurance will go up. Fun, fun.
I finally got to see a picture of The Friend’s new wife. He put it up on the medical site he goes to. She wasn’t what I expected and makes me wonder about a few things.
As you can see nothing really going on.
Bye
Glad things are still going good! Hey! Congrats on the raise! Any raise is better than none!

Long time & all that (as always, I rarely note because I suck in the bad way.) Congrats on the raise and *finally* having a night out! Good that the kids are doing well in school and are taking up some activities. Good that the hubby got a gig, but way-bummer ’bout the accident :-/ Please try to be good to you when you can…wish I could be a better cheerleader. ~Lys

You must be doing something right to get a raise that size. Hopefully hubs hangs on to the job for a while and you can stabilise a little. Unexpected how? better or worse?
