3/13/2010 So It looks like February flew by and I didn't make it on here to post.... work is still busy as ever but they hired a temp to help answer phones so I'm not putting in crazy hours anymore. I like having more time with Kayla and Erik. Kayla will be receiving her graduation announcements next week. hard to believe that it's almost that time. I only have a few short months left before she goes off to college. She is leaning towards going down to Snow College. I guess we best get looking into the housing arrangements soon so she has a place to live.
We are planning a graduation trip for Kayla down the West Coast. Starting up in Canada and driving down to Cali. not sure how far down we will get in the two weeks that we have planned to be gone. It will depend on when the money runs out. I'm looking forward to seeing my older brother John and introducing Erik to him for the first time. he wants us to stay a few days in Washington at his place which we are planning on doing. it's been I think about 6 or maybe even 7 years since I seen him last. I haven't seen Dixie for 15 years now. that will have to be another trip to the East. It's a good thing I love to travel so much. the only problem is coming up with all the money to travel.
4/24/2010 It looks like I got real busy that last few weeks of the tax season... The season has come to an end and talk about work being slow is an understatement Monday and Tuesday were okay but the rest of the week dragged because of the lack of work I didn't have. Next week should be better because I have a few projects to start on and the partner will be back from vacation where he plenty of time to think of new things that need to get taken care of. Since I last wrote Kayla has gotten her class schedule put in for the Fall semester and the last thing we need to get taken care of is housing. she wants to be off campus and Erik and I are thinking for this year she needs to be on campus where we know she'll have food and a safe place to stay or as safe as safe can be I guess; plus it's a lot cheaper on our pocket book as well. I forgot to say where Kayla finally decided to go to college. And the winner is SNOW COLLEGE!!! I loved it at Snow when I went so I know she will do well down there. while arranging her schedule I noticed a lot of the teacher I enjoyed are still there and a friend of hers has taken classes from them this year and told Kayla how good they are as well. I'm still not sure I like the field that she wants to out in but I'll deal with it and support her all that I can. it's a good field so don't get me wrong I just will worry about her safety all the time. She wants to go into CSI work or the FBI more in the science field. I sure as heck wouldn't want to see all that sick crap that goes on in the world.
On a lighter note Kayla has just over a month left of school and I'm so proud of the thins she has accomplished these last few years. She is growing up to be a beautiful young woman. It's taken her a while to come out of the shy little girl shell she was in to making new friends and to even get in trouble for anything at all in school. So the worst thing my daughter did in 12 years of school that got her after school detention just last week was being two minutes late for her first period class on a day they did a hall sweep. Erik thinks Senoritis has set in though because she ask him if she could skip her forth period class the other day and all he said to her was what would your mom say and she went back to school after she grabbed some lunch. I always tell her it's up to her and not once have been disappointed in the choices she has made. How did I get so lucky to raise such a kind and caring child? I hope she doesn't go crazy on me when she gets out on her own; the whole not working while in high school may be a challenge for her and how to budget her money and schedule her time around school, work and studying. Well I better getting to doing the things I need to get done today.
