I know it's been awhile already but I have an excuse - I got a new job. It happened really fast. For the last month or so I have been very unhappy with my job at the vet clinic for a couple reasons. Reasons that I won't go into on a public forum because I'm way too nice. Anyway, there was a job advertised in the newspaper that I was really interested in and was more in my field of finance. So I applied for it and was offered the job less than 24 hours after interviewing and they wanted me to start ASAP. I have already been there for three days and I love it. Now, the funny part - what my job is....
I am a foreclosure counselor. Yes I know, I know - incredibly ironic but hey I have knowledge in the field. What I am doing is working for a non profit organization that helps people when they are struggling financially. My specific area is for people who fear that they are going into foreclosure. It is a really rewarding job and so far I have done a ton of marketing - it's a fairly new program and so I have to get the word out there that it's being offered.
In two weeks I get to travel to St. Paul for three days for training. I am excited because I will get to travel with this job quite a bit. Anyways...that's my excuse for not blogging.
The kids are doing great - Jackson is a busy, busy boy and seems to have the energy of the energizer bunny. It must be a boy thing because he never stops and has to climb everything. Plus, he wants to be outside all day long!! He will scream if you bring him in. He also eats constantly - remember how Olivia never ate - well he is the opposite. He often eats his meal and finishes hers.
Olivia is also doing well - she has her dance recital on Tuesday and is very excited. She is confident and knows the dance inside and out. She is making new friends and growing up so darn fast - sometimes I look at her and think she's more like six rather than four.
Trevor is busy with work and he's been putting in a new transmission in one of our cars - that's two cars and two transmissions. Then, last week something happened to his 4 wheeler's transmission too. I swear we have the worst luck with those things.
Anway - I think I am off to bed but just wanted to check in and let you all know (if anyone reads this) that we are doing great. Oh and I have another thing to say:
GO DETROIT!! 1 more game and we win the Stanley Cup!! Whoo Hoo!

Congratulations on the new job. Hopefully it will continue to remain a fun and rewarding job for you.
I know what you mean about boys eating all the time - my nephew never really eats a meal, he just constantly grazes all day long. I think he has a tape worm! :)
Give the kiddo's a hug from Mark and I. I'm hoping for some pictures next...
Glad you found a great job that you love (so far anyways!)
Both the boys would scream bloody murder too when attempting to bring inside as well, they are getting better!! LOL
