Big News

So up to this point I have been introducing the upcoming news as "So I have a bit of news". But I've been told that is not "a bit" of news. And no I'm not pregnant.

Jason has been offered a job doing p.r. for Nascar. So as of Feb. 7, 2007 he will be a new resident of Daytona, FL. I'm going to stay here in New London until after the wedding. Then I will also be a new resident of the Sunshine State. None of this will affect the wedding plans. Too much is already rolling with that to change.

The job will be totally great for Jason. I'm so proud of him. Nascar has minor tracks the way baseball has minor leagues. Jason will be overseeing the p.r. for that segment of the organization. So he will be doing a lot of traveling at least in the beginning to familiarize himself the different tracks. Back during the summer he was talking to their head honcho saying that their website for news of the minor tracks sucked and here were 5 easy ways to fix it. They were farely impressed with what he had to say so they asked if he was interested in a job. They flew him down to Fla. the week of Thanksgiving for an interview. And then made the offer last week. We kept it under wraps until everything was official because this was great opportunity for him and didn't want to jinx it!

They are paying to move us so all our furniture will be gone by the end of Feb. I'm hoping to move into this apartment around the corner from us where they are looking for another roommate. Should know by Wed. whether that will work out. Otherwise I may couch surf for a little while. I'll keep everyone posted. Phone number will stay the same. I knew the moment I got that photo wall up this would happen! :O)

See I told you it was big news!

My First Photo Wall

For years I've wanted to build a photo wall in my house. I always admired ann's and wanted one too. however i HATE dealing with frames, mats, prints and hanging things. For some reason on this day I just was in a mood. I just started hanging everything. I just eyeballed it and it turned out pretty good. I'm going to add a few more small ones at the bottom.

cold finally

well it finally feels like winter around here. after many days of temps within a few degrees of phx, yesterday it was only 30. Today my nifty weather station deb gave me for xmas a few years ago says 44. there are daffodils sprouting in my side yard. it seems they got confused. i need to get some mulch to cover them. poor things.

look i've blogged again!

wow this makes two now!

i got pictures today from a friend from college who just hatched a beautiful daughter, nora rose jarrold (yes ann, its adam) it is so weird how we are all at the ages our parents were when we were born. some, i know passed that point a couple of years ago, but times are different. i think people did adult things sooner then. they say 30 is the new 20 or something like that.

Welcome 2007 and more blogging


So once again after much pestering about my lack of participation in my blog, i have returned. i am posting a photo which, hopefully will work better now that i have moved my blog into their new google system. jason and i did the polar bear dive again yesterday. this is our 5th year of our new years dunking. it almost seemed like cheating though. it was 53 degrees out and the tide was in. piece of cake.

p.s. there was a bit of photoshop done on this photo to keep it a p.g. rated blog.
