If you read my last post about fighting my traffic ticket, you’ll be glad to know it’s official — I won! Ticket is dismissed, and my money is being sent back to me. Best of all, no traffic school and no points on my DMV record. I’m glad it’s over. How coincidental is it that the day I got the news my ticket was dismissed is the same day I got paid for the job that I was doing when I got the ticket.
So now I’m finishing up some computer work for my last big job that I had commited to doing before I got hired for my full-time job. It will be so nice to be finished with it. I’ve only had 1 day off in the past month. It’s been exhausting, and worst of all, I feel like I’ve missed a month out of my kids’ lives. Is that how most mothers working full-time feel?
Well, I suppose I should get back to finishing up those reports so I finally finish them up.

I haven’t been able to keep up with all the recalls lately, but I did hear of 2 recent ones today. One is for Graco Strollers, and the other is for Caramia cribs. For more information, visit my other blog www.childrensproductrecalls.com.

Okay, it’s not official yet, but it looks like I’m going to get my traffic ticket dismissed. Ever since I sent in my Trial By Written Declaration form, I’ve been visiting the court’s web site daily to check the docket for any updates. I’ve even gone so far as to keep track of the progress [...]

Going back to work full-time has required a bit of adjustment on all our parts. Whereas I used rush Felicity out the door each morning to get her to school on time, I find I am the one who is rushing out the door before she even leaves. Del has been getting the boys up early so they [...]

Today is the second to the last day of 2009. A new year begins the day after tomorrow. Each year, I wonder how that year will differ from the last. Other than the kids being a year older and me being a year younger. This time around, I’m starting the year with a change. Last week I [...]

To anyone who may be reading this, I wish you a truly wonderful holiday and a very Merry Christmas (and to some of you, Happy Hannukah)! As you can see, we took the kids to see Santa yesterday, and it appears, so did half of the other people in the country. We were in line for [...]

I’m so close to taking a break I can almost feel it. I had completed all my work projects and was all set to enjoy the holidays, when — you guessed it — I got called for another project. I could hear Al Pacino’s voice in the back of my mind channeling my inner Michael [...]

Today I became an aunt again. My brother, Ken, and his lovely wife, Kristy, are the proud parents of a brand new baby girl, Anna Charlotte. If only I wasn’t across the continent, so I could see her in person — although Ken’s done a good job getting lots of pictures of her. It’s Ken’s [...]

What started out to as a possibly adventurous day quickly turned into the worst day I’ve had in quite a long time.
I was offered a job assignment working with a new company with a rather large client. I had to visit 20 different locations, do a survey, and snap some pictures. The catch was that none [...]

As I am writing this, I am hoping that each and every person had a Happy Thanksgiving. I personally had a very relaxing and enjoyable one. We went over to Del’s aunt’s house, and since it was in the 70’s, we decided to take advantage of the nice weather and do an outdoor Thanksgiving. It’s [...]
