Empty Nest...still can't accomplish much

With all the kids gone, I was gung-ho to get my entire life revamped and put back together in 2 weeks or less. I think I might actually get all the laundry done. I can now walk through (instead of trip through) my bedroom but the garage remains a mystery and is still pretty hazerdous.
I have managed to attend a resume writing workshop as well as did some ground work on getting the funding to get my CNA/CNA 2 Acute Care. Now if I can just get my career specialist (at Work Source) to call me back so I can submit it. I must admit I am feeling intimidated about going back into the work force, even part-time, but it is a growing experience for me. I am thinking that I might have to lighten my load for Fall term if I am going to be working. We'll see.

We had a fun 4th of July but it wasn't the same without the kids. Thankfully, the HOT weather that plagued us last week is gone and things are cool and cloudy now...just the way I like it! (Well maybe not so much cloudy)


4 more days until I return to California to pick up the little and then head for Utah. Hurray!




Tuesday night we went to the Hillsboro Farmers Market with friends, Gary & Sara Nees, and listened to a Marimba band called Boka Marimba. They were pretty good. Marimba music is so cheerful and upbeat...I need to listen more.









CIAO!

Food for Thought -

To a child love is spelled T-I-M-E. *Remember that is the the time we spend with our families is always a good investment -- especially time spent teaching them and learning from them.
