Quick Update!!!

So, nothing too exciting or crazy going on around here...kinda. Just a quick update!!

*There is some family drama but I guess it wouldn't be my family if there wasn't any. Don't ask unless you want to feel better about your own family and have 20 minutes you're dying to kill.

*We went to McCall this last weekend for a conference for NASW. It was ok...Riley and my mom went and had a blast, but I was stuck inside inside all day. On the plus side, I learned a lot and had lots of great FREE food...can't beat that.

*Work is going great as well...although I am SWAMPED!!! And it's only gonna get worse over the next few weeks...at least the time flies by fast and I LOVE my job! As much as I love my job though, I hope I don't end up like this poor guy (read the cartoon below...)

*Riley is doing awesome in school - she is in the top reading and math group - YEAH! Plus she loves first grade and everything about it. She has yet to have a bad day at school. Can't beat that!

*Riley is also in soccer again (no pics up yet because my photo software isn't working) and doing GREAT!! She finally scored a goal at their first game. She has dramatically improved this year. I am so proud of her and how hard she is working. So far they have had three games; the first two they won and the third one was a tie. Unfortunately, we couldn't make it the third game because we were in McCall. Hopefully they'll win the next game. Let me tell you though, these girls play hard!! I cannot beleive how hard they kick the ball and how many times each and every girl has been hit in the gut or face with the ball and yet they keep on going. It is really something. They're jerseys are white, so fittingly they are the Snow Leopards. Riley would love to see some people at her games so if you would like to come let me know and I will send you a list of her games. GO SNOW LEOPARDS!!

*Comments...don't forget, you can leave comments even if you don't have a blog. All you have to do is select "leave a comment" at the bottom of my blog, mark "anonymous" in the comment box and then you can leave your name at the end of the message. We would love to see who else visits our blog.

*Quite following me!!! Just kidding! Actually, I would love to know who is following my blog. There is a neat feature on the side bar of my blog where you can add yourself as one of my followers. Please...someone add themselves...just kidding...kinda

*No Smoking!! That's right...I quite smoking. I feel so much better. I have only smoked once in the past 16 days...go me!!!

*Now that I passed that hurdle I can focus on cutting back on my Pepsi intake (which I have cut in half but I want to cut back more) and exercising more; thus losing weight. Speaking of losing weight...I think the Biggest Loser starts tonight...gotta go and watch it!
