Under Pressure

I've been sort of a big ball of stress lately. I'm fairly sure I'm leaving my job for other pursuits, I just haven't figured out the other pursuit yet. I'm currently fairly far along in the interview process with 3 companies which is nice that I'll have choices if somebody ever offers me a job the whole process just seems to take so long. One of the jobs is in my home town. They are flying us out next week to check it out. I'm excited that Tim can meet people so near and dear to my heart and I can show him what a rockin town it is (Hey, even Money Magazine agrees with me). We have a few friends out here but no real base I'm looking forward to the possiblitiy of family nearby and also going back to school and get my masters and Tim could go for a PhD if he wanted. New stuff, but very stressful. Moving always is. Especially the cross country types of moves.

Busy, busy shockingly busy

You've no idea wha we have to do. busy busy dreadfully busy more than a bumble bee more than an ant busy busy shockingly busy we love to help but we can't!

From the Tale of Fiberoloo (Veggie Tales)

As the words of the queen and david bowie song "pressure" run through my head I'm not sure how I'm going to make it through this coming week. I have my insurance examination on Tuesday (wish me luck) I have a big meeting with my boss where I need to ask him to let me have a part time job or a raise because I'm finding that I literally cannot live off what they pay me. I have to start writing a seminar with my coworker and have little get together with him and his wife and Tim. AND my mom is coming (which I can hardly contain my excitement) but Tim wants our house to be immaculate for her so it means a whole lot of cleaning. My weekend is packed with work meetings and museum fun in San Francisco with Tim and Emiko I just hope I can pack all this other stuff into the first three days of next week.

it's been awhile

A whirlwind two months...sorry for the lack of updates but I have been super busy, super stressed and most of the time way too emotional and as always borderline crazy. So I have met Tim's family (on a vacation in Oregon), become a registered representative and celebrated my one year anniversary with Tim (for which we went to Santa Barbara for the weekend) in that order. Work is, let's just say, challenging. I'm not convinced at all that this is what I want to do. For the moment though it is a good expirience to have.

So other than that what have I been upto? I have been taking in my spare time a tax prep class (hoping that I will be able to increase my cash flow during tax season-however it still has yet to be approved by Manager) and I have also begun my training to be a track star. Ok I'm kidding (sorta) Kel and I have been talking about it for awhile now but we are going to make it happen: The Walt Disney World Half Marathon in January 2009. So I literally have been "training" I've never really run at any point in my life so I'm trying this whole walk for awhile, then run for a while, repeat routine (my hip hurts by the way.) I have over a year so I know I can do it. I'll try to get some vacation pics up net time.
