Bad Blogger...

That's what I am. A bad blogger. Period.

Our weather is starting to shape up around here, and I'm hoping with the promise of blissfully sunny spring days that our evenings will be filled with many a bike ride or stroll over to the turtle pond. Hmmm, I wonder if the turtles have come out of hibernation yet? Did you know they hibernate?

And you, my dear reader, just might be hoping for the promise of some updated pictures?

Someday, someday soon...

Signed,
Yours truly... the now eighty-thirty to fiver.

Still alive!

Nothing much has happened in our corner, but thought I'd write a boring, picture-less update at least!

After 5 interviews (yes, 5!!) with a community bank in McLean Virginia I landed a job! Monday March 2nd will be my first day, and I am sure looking forward to it. The bank is a small community bank with only one branch and I'll be doing Loan Portfolio Management and Credit Analyst work. Basically number crunching and risk management for the lending department. I have been really impressed with everyone I've met thus far and & I'm looking forward to working with them! I know I will miss my lazy days at home, but for my own sanity I'm sure it will be better to work again. Plus, now I can justify my sporadic shopping trips! :-)

I'm missing my family today... somehow they all planned to be together and didn't invite me! :-) (joking Mom!) Dellas brought Jill, his fiancee, down to San Diego to "meet the parents" and Wes flew down there also. Lucky ducks!

One of my roommates from Vancouver, WA has been living out here in Richmond, VA with her hubby and they stayed the night with us last evening... we had a great time together!

I'm excited for our friends Ken and Liesl... maybe you remember them (and their house!) from previous posts? It's coming along quite nicely! We enjoy being excited for them since we don't have a house of our own to remodel yet. :)

Enough rambling... this should serve as proof that we're still alive and kicking... maybe something exciting will happen that I can take some photos of soon? :)

P.S.: We still have an extra bedroom if anyone feels the urge to come visit!
