Kitchen in Progress...

Here you can see the new cabinet's painted on the top and what they looked like before. We added new knobs and pulls which I think make it look nice. It's like a matted nickel. Hopefully it'll be completed in a week or two and I can show the finished look. I think they look totally different and very nice next to the new dishwasher. Ooh, it's a different paint color too...what do you think of the yellow?

New Aquarium

So, here it is...our new 55 gallon aquarium. There was alot to learn with such a big tank. Filter, heater, water conditioner, starter fish, light, food, stand, etc etc. I still have to get a light (using Kelly's fish light from her room for now) and a few other things on order (glass top which I had to order custom) and the hood which I can't find anywhere local. I never knew what an expensive hobby this would be. Kelly is thrilled though. She eats, sleeps and dreams fish. And she earned it too. She watches Mike for me and gets straight A's all year. I think it looks nice, don't you?

New Title -

I got the official word today. I was offered a Clinic Administrator job. It becomes effective tomorrow.

What this means? I basically do the same thing as I have been...working full time, opening the store, administrative duties, etc. but with more pay...NICE. I am excited that I am finally getting the appreciation for all the hard work. I do have one concern. What happens next school semester? Mike starts high school and they don't start until 8:50. I have to open the store at 7:30. Kelly will still be in Middle school so she has to leave at 7:30. Hopefully I can get someone to either put him on the bus every morning or get him to school an hour early where someone could watch him...I'll have to work that out when the time comes.

I'm trying to iron out vacation dates with the ex this summer. I think he'll have them for 2 weeks with Kelly going back again for another 2 weeks. I'll see if she's willing or ready to beaway from me for that long. David and I are planning on going to Houston for a few days to see family and then back to New Orleans for some fishing.... last summer I was HOOKED!

What is everyone doing for vacation this year?

Nothing new really...

Hi everyone!

What's new to report? Let's see...

April 10th will be 10 years since David and I had our first date!

Easter is tomorrow. We're not going to church since Michael can't participate so we will lay low at home (it's 40 degrees here) and eat. Sounds good to me!

We bought a new elliptical. It'll save me lots of time not
going to the gym. Time is something I don't have much of these days.

Work is going good. The owner is in the process of opening store #2 and it has
been mentioned that I will help run it in some capacity. Should be interesting.

Just got a new dishwasher today. Was tired of nasty food being left on the old one. It's super quiet too so thats a plus.

We're still remodeling our kitchen. We painted and bordered and now we're redoing the cabinets. I'll show pics when it's done.

So, thats it...not very exciting but it is my life. LOL

Have a happy and safe Easter everyone!!!
