Just Another Saturday Morning!

Well not really. Very rarely are we at our apartment on Saturday mornings as we stay so busy on the weekends. However this morning we are lounging around, watching cartoons, making a pancake breakfast and just enjoying our time together! Later today we will be driving up to Edmonds to celebrate my dad's 64th Birthday.

The kids are great. We are all great. We are together! Sydney starts a new daycare on Monday that is much closer to where we live and she is excited about the change, as are we! Isaac will still be staying at the same place as he is too young for the new place so we will have to do two drop offs and pick ups but it's just for a short while.

Lyndon is working for an aerospace company up in Renton. It's an hour commute each way but he works from 5:30am to 2:00pm which means he misses the dreaded rush hours so it's OK for now.

Our house in Florida is under contract but because we are short selling, it's taking forever. But at least there is an end in sight and once it's off our hands, we can move forward in finding something more permanent for us. We're afraid as a result of the short sale it may be some time before we can buy, but it's OK. Definitely a sign of the times!

Annie


This morning Sydney typed "Annie" into google and started playing her youtube clips. I had no idea she new how to spell it! So now she knows how to spell: Sydney, Annie and beer. Lovely.

Weekend

I am making an effort to try to post more frequently again.....

This weekend we are in Edmonds. We came up early Saturday and spent the afternoon with Lyndon's brother and family, then headed down to my parents house. Oh how I miss Edmonds! The longer we are in WA, the more and more I want to move back to my hometown. If not back here, then at least closer to it!

My job is a little shaky right now. There were supposed to be layoffs but L&I was supposed to be safe. However, it seems as though there may be a few jobs lost in my department. As I am union and the newest kid on the block (oh oh, oh oh oh) it could mean disaster. The good news is that Lyndon starts a new job on Monday. He will be working for an aerospace company in Renton - about an hour north of Olympia. But it is a good job, great hours and may eventually influence us to move further north....who knows!

That is all for now.....
