Crazy Weather, Sick Family, and Other Oddities

Well,  I now have successfully posted twice in a row again.  I think my longest streak was like 4 in a row. I wonder if I can beat that now.  I'm getting back on track with my classes. I have worked my tail off the past two weekends on assignments that needed turned in. I'm still very backed up on the reading but with not worrying about the assignments as much, then I can concentrate on my homework. Once I finish these two classes, then I will only have 6 more to go to finish my Bachelor's :).   Oh Happy Day!  Then I continue on for my Master's.  FML

But enough about school, you can read more about it at My Journey Into the Accounting World .  I love to know that people are reading, and would love to have some comments check it out.

For the last month or so that is supposed to be winter, the weather has been a topic of discussion.  Here in central VA, we can quite literally see all four seasons in a week. It's CRAZY!  We are currently in a cold spell right now, I truly believe that it could snow. I just checked the weather and it's calling for potential snow Tuesday/Wednesday. (Doesn't it figure I'm off on both of those days)

The family are a various stages of illness. Alyson is mostly over the flu. Jenna and I are feeling much better. And then today Dre wakes up feeling like crap.  She has only recently ran a fever, she took medicine for it. However, she also says that she has a sore throat.  Keep us all in your thoughts.

The 10th marked the day that I resigned from my last job at Quest Diagnostics. I will celebrate one year with Capital One on the 14th. I'm glad that I decided to leave Quest. I have really enjoyed the last year at Cap One and look forward to working for them for as long as they will have me or I change directions.

Also, tomorrow the 13th marks one year for Jenna to be a Process Coordinator.  Yeah!

Well, I hope that you have enjoyed this bird's eye view of our life.

Stay warm and healthy!

First Snow of the Year in the Richmond Area

Well, my kids are happy.  They get to sleep in tomorrow since they have a snow day. We got our first snow of the year this weekend with any real accumulation.   We probably got around 3-6 inches, I'm not real great as measuring the amount. On an exciting note, we finally got to use the snow blower that we purchased last year. Yeah!!!!  We got it last year and then it never snowed again, doesn't that figure. LOL.  Well, Jenna and I took it out and dug out the driveway and front walkway in under 3 hours. Which is a vast improvement from the 6+ hours last year that Keith, Jenna and I worked to get the cars out. Alyson went out to play in the snow and lasted maybe 1/2 hour. She came in and told me she was done with it. She said that "you can't get anything done outside because it so cold".  That made me laugh. Dre didn't want anything to do with the weather. She has been closed up in her room as teenage-dom requires. LOL They called off work on Saturday bu...

Catching up yet again

I haven't been on here in so long. I have had a busy few months. I was working for a while but then our sitter quit. So I'm now staying at home with Aly and Andi. Aly is growing really fast and is talking up a storm. Some words are really distinguishable and some just sound like a new language. We are trying to potty train her and she is resisting. Maybe she's not ready. Andrea is in the middle of her own battle, her weight. For those of you who know us, she has always been little. Well, after speaking with the doctor about this issue, we were trying pedia sure. (That stuff is expensive.) Almost a year later she has only really gained like a pound. So now the doctor wants to have her blood checked for a thyroid problem. She may have hyperthyroidism, or that is what he is thinking. well, any thoughts are appreciated.
