Playing catch up

When I started this blog I really wanted to write in it at least weekly, I have completed failed at that.  I don't even think monthly would count at this point.  Oh well, I'm back for today.  In my last post I shared that I had turned in my notice to my job.  Well, I have left.  I am still doing some part time work, some account reconciliations, for at least a couple months.  For me, this is perfect.  Leaving OTL was not any easier than I thought it would be.  The first couple weeks of my new job I was certain I had made a huge mistake, I would cry on my way to work and on the way home.  I missed my "family."  I have adjusted and my new job is going well.  I am learning so much everyday, I enjoy my new co-workers and the quietness of our office.  I still miss my old job, and when I hear of things going on I wish I was there to enjoy it.  Tonight I will get to see everyone that I miss at their annual banquet, that they still invited me to attend! 

Our house is still for sale and we have not had ONE person come and look!  I am still sure that selling our house was what God asked us to do, I'm just not sure what's going on.  I guess we never do when we put God in charge.  A couple weeks ago our realtor did a broker's open house, during the day, so we had to take our dogs to my aunts for the day.  Well, they dug out of her yard, our oldest dog stayed at the house, but our younger dog, Jack, didn't.  We have yet to find him.  It is so strange to me that I can tell our oldest dog is so sad that her friend is gone.  Not to mention how sad the girls are that he's gone.  I really thought with his tags, that some one would have found him and called....nope.   :(

My sister who has lived far, far away for the last four years and her husband have finally moved back to Texas!!!  I'm so happy to have her close again.

Kimmer is playing club volleyball and she is doing great.  It keeps us very busy, but I love to see her out of her box, when she is on the court.  Our spring calendar is full of practices, games and tournaments.  We have very few weekends open until May!!  She wants to play school softball this spring, but I just don't know how she can fit it in with everything else she has to keep up.  We'll see...

Kenzie is recovering from strep throat and a possible slight case of the flu.  She went to the doctor on a Wednesday and the dr said she just had symptoms of both, no meds for her.  Then FIVE days later the doctor called and said her culture came back and she did have strep.  Poor girl had to fight it off all by herself.  The meds did help in the end, but I felt so bad for her suffering.  She is my one who has prided herself on perfect attendance the last two years.  I knew she felt bad the first day when she said she didn't care if she broke her perfect attendance this year, she wanted to stay home.

I think I've about caught you up on the big things in our lives for now.
