Here is our most recent news: I have just started a full time job at Chase Bank (3rd largest bank in the US, 4th largest in the world) I really enjoy my job as a Personal Banker (the people in the bank who have the offices and open up checking accounts etc) and am looking forward to where my career may take me.
Karida is in childcare/daycare full time and is really enjoying it. It was a big transition at first (the biggest being getting out of the house by a specific time each morning!) but she is definitly thriving (She is an extrovert so enjoys the constant interaction with other kids, etc..) And it has been a big transition for me to be back at work full time. But I have to say, after being a stay at home mom, work is a bre
eze (even though its new and pretty stressful to meet my sales goals!)...We just celebrated our 9 year anniversary and we are doing well! We are looking forward to planning a big 10 year celebration (I think we are going to try a cruise or something)
My brother (David) was diagnosed with cancer after they found a brain tumor earlier this year. He is doing as well as can be expected - he just finished radiation a few weeks ago and starts his first round of chemo tommorrow (he'll be doing chemo for a year). His son (Aidan) is now 5 months old (this is a
picture of him in July) and is the happiest baby ever (what a gift!!) and his wife (Christina) is a great support for him.My dad was also in the hospital recently for a brain tumor (how crazy is life)! They removed it and are now waiting for the pathology report to find out if it is cancerous or not. They are saying that this is not a hereditary issue - but it is too coincidental with my brother's problem... He will find out this coming Wednesday what the pathology report shows so please send your prayers his way!! He has a blog about his experience http://www.factbasedspiritguidedpath.blogspot.com
My mom now lives 1.5 hours away from us (Indianapolis) and is doing well - she lives and works (Borders corporate sales) downtown and loves walking to work, etc.. My sister (Leah) lives in Washington DC, has just graduated from massage school and is currently the education manager for the "Bodies" exhibit at the science museum there (plasticized humans that shows each muscle, organ, etc... - pretty fascinating)
My recent addiction has been facebook - I've found so many old friends on it and have found it a great way to stay in connection. So sometimes you'll see updates here and sometimes you may have to catch up with me at facebook (sign up there if you haven't already so that we can continue to stay connected)
