the Good, the Bad & the Ugly

Wow - it's been a while since I've updated this blog. I'm not even sure without looking when I posted last. This past weekend, Andrew and I went to my cousin's wedding in OH. It was beautiful and I was honored to be the matron of honor. It was a very busy weekend. And I was exhausted afterward. Oh, and I had to give a toast that kinda freaked me out at first, but I think I pulled something together that was really nice. In fact, I was kinda proud of it, then come to find out, nobody could hear me. Oh well, the bride heard it and that's all that mattered. So, other that we've been busy with the Good, the Bad and the Ugly.

The Good: My Job.
So far, I really like it. The people are great, the work really isn't bad and the day flies by. Everyone has been wonderful to me and treat me like the job I do is very important although almost anyone could be doing it. And beleive it or not, even though the job is simple, I am really enjoying it and feel like it's important and worth my time. Right now, I have been going downtown to either our "Towers" facility or our "Butterworth" campus in the mornings. Then I go to our "Blodgett" campus in the afternoon. So it makes the day go really fast. And I've been super busy trying to learn everything and getting myself set up on all the software, getting all of my contacts set up, etc... But I feel like at home it's just crazy. Both Marc and I are tired in the evenings and only what's absolutely necessary gets done. So things like laundry, vacuuming, grocery shopping, etc... is being put off. Andrew seems to be doing fine with a sitter all day. Although he's more cranky in the evenings and wants constant attention. (another reason it's hard to get anything done in the evenings).

The Bad: Automobiles.
Our Taurus needs some fixing up and will be getting worked on this Friday. It's nothing too bad or too expensive but needs to be done none-the-less. Well, this past weekend, Marc went down to his Uncle Arts and the Escort broke down and had to have a belt replaced. So fortunatly, Marc's uncle allowed him to take his truck back up here while the Escort was left at a body shop. Monday morning, the truck wouldn't start, so AAA came out and jumped Marc but told him the battery was dead-dead, so we had to replace his battery. Marc then went down to get the Escort and was told that the brakes and roters will need to be fixed real soon, too. YIKES!! All at once! Good thing I'm working, I guess. (Although after submitting my benefits worksheet, I'm pretty much working for benefits only). :)

The Ugly: Here

So tonight, Marc went out fishing, I just put little man to bed after a few chocolate chip cookies. I am updated this blog, paying bills, checking e-mail etc... Nothing too exciting. I still need to pack up for a busy work day tomorrow, get Andrew's gear together for the sitter and get the house picked up. But I think I'll wait until Marc gets home to start working too hard. Ok, have a nice night.
