I finally got a new phone! I am so excited! Those of you that may know, my Razr V3xx I got like in October or November, well, it fell in the sink one morning and died. So I have been using one of Randi's old Nokia phones. But I finally am back to a Razr, so I am very happy!
Let's see, there has been so much going on. Randi and I were both sick for what seemed like forever. About two weeks probably. She still gets some chest congestion every once in a while, but not as bad. The kids though, somehow and KNOCK ON WOOD, haven't gotten sick.
My boss left and went back to Virginia, so I have been trying to learn the remaining ropes I hadn't had to climb yet. Needless to say, it kicked my butt. And still is. I am in the middle of trying to do a budget for the next three years, do the department strategic planning for the next 3 and 5 years, get a replacement hired for our programmer that quit (and fill in the programmer spot) and deal with all the "I wants..." and "I needs" that come along. I tell you what, it can drive you to drinking!
And on top of that, I started another semester at ECU. I thought I would be smart and take two online classes so I wouldn't have to leave work to go to class and go through the whole "mind changing" you have to do going back and forth. Well, that may have been a mistake. The marketing class I am in is beating me up pretty bad! I love to help my wife, and I strongly believe in the "partnership" of cleaning and baths and all around house chores. But I have found that by the time I try to do dinner, clean up the kitchen, give kids baths and get them to bed, it doesn't leave much time. Especially when you don't get home until 6pm. But luckily some of the stuff online isn't due until midnight on Saturdays, so that gives me a full day to work on stuff.
Randi is still rocking at her job. She actually got a call not too long ago from our pediatrician. They had a job spot come open and all the ladies thought that Randi would fit in perfectly. However it wasn't in the cards for us (at least it didn't offer the money to be in the cards for us at this time). haha...  But she really likes it where she is. The people are great, and some days she really gets to have fun. But most of all, then do respect her there. They know if someone can get things done, Randi can!
The kids are doing great. Kaitlyn is doing a little more talking back lately, but we are able to keep her in check. Dylan, well, he is just a different character. Kaitlyn is still bashful and quite for the most part. And then you got Dylan who flirts with the ladies and is loud and outgoing. It is really funny to watch them when we are out and about. Watching them at the house, I am thinking Kaitlyn will be either a dancer or singer. She loves any show on tv that people are dancing and singing, and she starts doing it with them. It is very cool! Then Dylan, well, I am thinking drummer. Anytime he hears music he starts clapping his hands or pounding a table or chair or anything he is near. Randi has a theory though. He has been laying on his back and scooting underneath of the big overstuffed ottoman we have. So she thinks he may just grow up to be a mechanic. Shoot, doesn't matter as long as they get to do what they want.
Well, I just finished chapter 2 in my marketing class and thought I would get a post done real quick, but I can hear work being done in the kitchen, so I better get off my rear. Hope everyone out there is good. Later!
