at work....no really!

You probably know that my husband quit his job at Merrill Lynch in November and opened his own investment firm (Lokken Investment Group). I expected that somewhere along the line he would need me to help out in some way or another at least until things got up and running and he could hire another employee besides his assitant Carrie.

Didn't take him long...I working already. His purchased this huge marketing program/system called Bill Good Marketing and made me his "computer operator". It falls to me to learn the system and how to operate it and get the first few (at least) marketing campaigns up and running. And then I'll be in charge of maintaining the database etc. etc.

Anyway. I'm at the office today. Still leaning the system and currently waiting for a call from software support. Apparently some macro isn't running properly and my test campaign failed. There isn't much else for me to do until I can get back in the practice system and so just that...practice.

And so I blog.

Course now I've run out of things to blog about. So I'll end it here while you're still somewhat awake. Enjoy your day...until next time....

(by the way, no layouts or photos on this computer at the office so nothing pretty to post)

It snowed!

We never get snow. There's about 4 inches out there I guess and it's still coming down. Blowing like a banshee though so there won't be any playing today.

The kids are home. There was no doubt about that...last time it snowed we got a WHOLE HALF INCH and they closed so I knew when they said 3-8 that as soon as the first few flakes fell they'd call it off. And sure enough, at 10 pm the phone rang and it was the announcement.

We just don't have the equipment in Delaware to deal with this kind of weather.

Makes my life easier anyway. Now Jonathan doesn't have to drop me off at the surgery center (my colonoscopy is today), drive to Georgetown to pick up Claire then come back to get me. She can just stay home with Jess.

Tonight I feast! Amazingly, considering that I haven't eaten in 36 hours and counting, I'm not that hungry. Gives me a little perspective for those afternoons when I'm starving 2 hours after I've had lunch. I'm not cooking though...we've got fabulous left-overs calling my name!

Just a few more 2008 pages to post and then I can scan and share the pages I've made this year so far. I love how this one turned out using some of my favorite papers ever...Dill Blossom by SEI.



Thanks for looking and have a great day. Later!

Lazy Sunday

We don't have too much on the schedule today so I'm enjoying a relaxing day at home. Claire is supposed to have a riding lesson later but it's a "wintery mix" out there so I'm thinking it will be canceled. We've already done the grocery shopping and I'm caught up with all the peamails concerning my Huge Purge sale on the For Sale or Trade board at TwoPeas. I think I'll try to finish the page I started yesterday and work on some page kits for the crop at Ally Scraps next month.

Anything to distract me from the fact that I'm starving to death. Well, not really. But it sure feels that way. I'm having a colonoscopy tomorrow and on clear liquids today. Fun stuff.

Today's page is a quick and easy one I did with all the cousins from the Lokken side of the family. Love this picture!



Couple more emails just popped into my in box. Better go check it out. Until next time...
