Joi-sey bound

Sorry for the lack of posts...our camera had to be sent off to the techy gods to be fixed. So we have not been taking too many pictures recently.

Lets see, lets see, since the last post...



Gordon has broken 100 hours in his job so he is finally off of "High Mins" (flight restriction). Along with that he has been on Reserve from home a lot as well as floating to different lines. He has flown out of Kinston, Greensboro and coming soon he will be do the Newark to Baltimore run for a couple weeks this month. If any of you know Gordon you know his feelings on Jersey and the New England area for that matter...but it is money in the bank and flight time so he is willing to sacrifice.



I officially put in my notice to Hope House on Thursday. My last day will be September 18th. I then start my new job as a Case Manager for an advocacy group for people with varying disabilities. That is unless i get offered a position I interviewed for with the city of Norfolk in the mean time. I am nervous and excited because it is a step up in my career and will be a challenge...Without breaking confidentiality all I can say is it is time for me to get the heck out of Dodge...for numerous reasons!



But on a funnier subject: I was going through some of the pics on our computer and found this...

I believe it was from my Birthday in when we lived in Indiana...Check out the Spock ears and the Michael Jackson post 1990 nose...gotta love it

STUFF!!

After 3 years and 3 moves Gordon and I (but mostly Gordon) were reunited with our long lost stuff. Most of our non-essential belongings were being stored in my mom's garage while we moved around the eastern sea board. Thanks to Boomer and Heidi (and Brakston) I now have my 11 series of Simpson figures and environments as well as my retro Incredible Hulk lunchbox back in my loving arms :P Gordon has his tiki's and paper products...lots and lots of paper products, just ask all of us that carried it down the street and up 3 flights of stairs!

But even more exciting than our hoarders dream come true, we got to spend Brakston's first birthday with him at Macaroni Grill. If our camera wasn't currently broken I would show you his delight in the free ice cream sundae and Dirt Worm Cupcake but I will leave that up to Heidi when she gets home...check out their blog for the visual...till next time
