I figured after 10 years it was about time!
Oh and I got few other things as well. A new dog (just picked her up tonight) and a new job.
The most important, the dog. She is 1.25 years old and a yellow lab. She is pretty small but stocky. Her name from the breeder was Tennie and she knows it a bit so we are going to keep it. Tennie seems to dig the kids and is already attached to Brooke and I. She has already taken her place on the begging line while we are making dinner.
I started a new job on Oct 1. Finally got that offer I could not refuse. It is a BIG change as I am now working from home 100% of the time. The company is a start-up so travel (unless client funded) will be minimal. Working from home has been a switch. I go days without leaving the house. It is hard to separate the house and work. Once I fall into my groove I should be fine.
One of the nice things about working at home is I can pop out for a run a bit more. October has been busy with everything going on. All 3 kids were home and we think 2 of them had H1N1 (typical symptoms of Swine Flu but never got them tested). The older 2 spent several days at home and the baby just 1. The baby has a bit of something now but does not seem to be the same symptoms as the others and/or H1N1.
Coaching soccer this year has been fun. The boys can be a bit challenging but they are really a blast. Their results have been mixed. I realized today (at our 8 AM game!!) that we have not faired so well with these early morning games. Aidan's soccer has been great this year. I have not been able to make it to all her games with coaching the boy's team but she is doing awesome! She scored 3 times today!
That's about it. I won't rant about anything today since it has been a while since I posted anything. But I heard some good stuff on NPR today about how to the environmental push! :)
