Dan and I are childless tonight and we did not even go out. Funny how your idea of a hot date pre-kids to post-kids changes. An opportunity to accomplish something feels pretty nice. I worked in the basement today. I cut a bunch of baseboards to size, caulked some that are already up, and did some general cleaning up/putting things away. I am still enjoying the pantry, even if I have not put those remaining screws in the shelves to keep them from being able to be pulled off! We need to keep plugging along and do what we can when we can. I see a lot of new shows are coming on this week that look interesting. Good thing we have a TV in the basement so that we can work down here and still see the shows I think I have to watch. :-)
I don't usually discuss work on here, but I have to say with the looming cuts it definitely puts a black cloud over the job. Since the buyout was offered, folks had til last Wednesday to decide if they wanted to sign up for it. They still have 45 days to sign the paperwork with 7 days before the decision is for sure valid and complete. Thus we are looking at two month for all this to shake out while others have to wait to see how many take it and to see what their individual fate holds. That is not so fun! I guess you have to just roll with life and think that if it happens, it is all in God's plan for you. I do believe in fate and the fact that everyone has a plan before them. I still have to say that I will be bumming since my severance would of been 42 weeks pay had I signed up versus 14 that it would be instead.
The boys are at Kolene, Michael, & Carsen's house. I think they are quite happy to be there. They enjoy their time with them and it is good for the cousins to spend some time together. We need to have Carsen over. We need to invite Koda over more since he lives local especially. Since his siblings are older it is nice for him to spend time with some kids his own age! Speaking of, all three of these little guys are in pre-school now! They all seem to like it from what I hear.
We have busy weekends coming up it seems. Next weekend, Dan and Michael are going to the Michigan game while us gals and the grandsons go out for Kristin's birthday! The following weekend is the Pumpkinfest in Zeeland along with the reception for a friend at work that is getting married, and after that is the Goose festival in Fennville. Corbin is also doing Saturday morning swimming lessons. Case will go back after Corbin is done. (I staggered them for our own ease.) I do water aerobics on Monday's and sometimes Wednesday's. Body Balance class on Tuesday and Thursday along with walking on both Saturday and Sunday. We are definitely not bored in the house now. Have a great week!
