Musings

Wow, so long, so long. It seems like a lifetime ago since I wrote last, and in some ways it has been.

I'm working full time as the Home Accent Dept head at Hobby Lobby here in Broken Arrow. Most days I enjoy it. It's never boring and always keeping me busy, which is both a blessing and a curse all at the same time.

Last post I talked about getting a new puppy. We picked out a little girl puppy and named her Pooka. So many names would have fit her personality better, but we love her none the less. Eric's working like three jobs right now. One is a part time job at Broken Arrow Electric, one part time job at a two year college, and several consulting things he is doing on his own. I am so proud of him for not giving up and for taking initiative staying busy.

Morgan is getting a fine arts award next Friday from her school. Each year they choose one student from each elementary school and the teachers selected her! I'm so proud of her. She has still done well in school, but having a few issues testing boundaries lately....*sigh* Blake is doing better this year over last year, but we are still having issues with not turning in homework from a couple of his classes which drops his grades dramatically. I wish he would understand that something is better than a zero.

I'm enjoying my morning off and going to be going to work around lunch. It's quiet in the house and I'm going to be finishing up my small quilt this weekend I hope. Then I can start quilting on it and get it hung up!

Wow it's been a lifetime since my last post. So much has been going on in our life. I'm working full time as dept head of Home accent at Hobby Lobby. Eric works several part time jobs as well as some consulting work. I'm proud of him for working so hard to stay busy! Morgan is doing well in school, but having a few preteen issues testing boundaries. Blake is doing much better than last year, but again, having issues with not turning homework in in some of his classes, which hurts him terribly. I wish he would understand that turning something in is better than a big fat zero!

We got a new puppy. We picked out a little girl and named her Pooka. Her picture is attached to this post. She is very sweet and really a good dog. As you can see, she LOVES the snow and being outdoors, though she stays inside most of the time.
