Whoa! It's been forever!


Almost 2 months since my last post~ EEKS! I'm such a slacker.

This is going to be a quick update.

Work~ Tara and I are LOVING the new school! Our teammates are great, the administration is over the top organized, and the parents are helpful! The students are fun, full of personality.

Home~ We are mostly, but not entirely, settled in the house. I still can't figure out what all the crap on the tile floors is, or how to scrub it off. The best I can manage is using a scrub brush and acetone. But it's a lot of work and it takes forever! I bought a Shark Steam Mop thinking that would help, but it really didn't. I'll have to check Home Depot's rental rates because they have those heavy duty floor scrubbers.

Family~ All's well. Nothing new to report. Ant's birthday is in two weeks. He's going to be 8! I can't believe it. Not sure what we're doing for him because he's got a football game in his hometown (2hrs away) that Saturday morning.

Knitting~ I've started a Central Park Hoodie with Cascade 220 Heathers in a gorgeous green. I've finished the back, the left side, and am almost done with the right side. I've also cast on the Mystic Earth stole. That one's slow progress though. Trying to get CPH done before FL's version of cold weather comes and goes in the blink of an eye.

Dogs~ Roxy is still as goofy as ever. Janie, the pitbull, is simply wonderful and well behaved. They get along like sisters. Very well for the most part, but occasionally Roxy can be a bit of an instigator.
