Time Off

Yeah, I know.  I'm way behind in blogging.  I periodically update my status on Facebook and feel like I've done my part to reach out to the world.  I forget that not all of you are on Facebook to see these status updates.  So, I should get you updated.

I'm sure there was a lot going on at one time in the past 2+ weeks since my last post.  But, I'll just hit the highlights.  Maybe once I get going I'll remember more.

I got through my finals and feel pretty good about the whole thing.  My student loan came through and the paperwork is all in order.  I've registered for classes and have a week left to relax a bit before I hit the books again.

O is doing so well with the herbs and acupuncture for his bedwetting that last night was his last treatment.  We have enough herbs to get us through the week and then we are done with those.  I'll just take him periodically to have "maintenance" treatments.  He started out being wet at least 3-5 nights/week and ended up being wet only 1 time this past week.  He is really proud and everyone goes on and on about how brave he is to get acupuncture.

M Is doing well in dace class.  They have been working on their dance for the recital at the end of May.  The girls are too cute.  It will be fun to watch them and see how they react to their debut in front of a live audience.

C is going a little nuts at work which is becoming the norm.  There are so many things about it that he loves and so many things he hates.  I guess that is the way most people feel about their job.

We've had tons of rain over the past couple of weeks.  C's car sunroof leaked so now his car is in the garage and mine is in the driveway.  It should be repaired before the end of the week.  We just spend each morning checking the weather to see if it is safe to have his car out of the garage or not.  Otherwise we are splitting time with my car.  It is working fine this week since I am on a school break.  

We are looking forward to a quick getaway this coming weekend.  We are taking off Saturday afternoon to head to Rusk, TX to take a train ride on Sunday.  I think we are looking forward to it almost as much as the kids are!  I've been trying to book a night at a nearby B&B.  I've heard back from them once to learn that the room we want to book is available but I can't get them to call back to let us know if we can reserve it or not!  I may have to look at some other places.

Anyway, that is what is going on here in a nutshell.  We did our April b-day celebration over the weekend so I'll upload those couple of photos and post that some day soon.
