- My job rocks. End of story.
- My husband rocks. End of story.
- Except NOT end of story. Because that is how much he rocks. Jacob Eugene is the newest Front Line Lead [a.k.a kind of a big deal] at Allstate. Yep, you are remembering right. This is Jake's second promotion in a matter of 3 months. Respect.
- Too bad Jake's awesome promotion means we are on COMPLETE opposite schedules now. I mean before we had at least one day and one night off together. Now? Only one day. One measly day. I go to work before Jake gets up and I am in bed by the time he gets home. Big, big bummer. At least he FINALLY has Sunday's off. Big, big YIPEE!
- Our front yard has...wait for it...GRASS! Green grass! Oh so pretty, newly grown, ourwaterbillissoexpensivenow bright GREEN GRASS! Who cares if it is a little patchy...at least it's a change from our previously owned "dirt yard".
- It snowed today. All over our oh so pretty newly grown bright green patchy grass. Idaho weather has more mood swings than I do. And that is saying something.
- Bullet points are probably the best invented blogger tool ever. Ever, I tell you.
- Speaking of green, our backyard has recently sprouted its own green goodness. Bright green, rapidly expanding...weeds. Eh, at least our front yard looks good.
- Work is sending me to a training in Denver at the end of the month. Even rented me a nice little car to pick up once I get off the plane. How freaked out am I to drive a rented car in Denver, you ask? Slightly freaked out on the borderline of hysterical crying. So...really, no big deal. I grew up in Malta. How different could Denver be?...
- Jake's work is sending him on a training to Chicago a few weeks after I get back from Denver. Too bad we can't go on these little training trips together, right? Right.
- But don't feel bad for us. The day after Jake gets back from Chicago, we are both jumping on another plane -- together this time. Woohoo. Three cheers for Vegas. Three cheers for a family vacation. Three cheers for a whole 5 days together!
- Maycie Laine's adorable little headstone is promised to be done by Memorial Day. Honestly, I think I might even be a little more excited for it to be done than our trip to Vegas. Can't wait to see her cute little name on her cute little headstone.
- Blog posts are pretty boring without pictures. I will work on that.
