That's exciting news for sure

SO exciting. This is gonna be the first home we've ever purchased or moved into where practically NOTHING has to be done to make it nice or to our taste. Floors are all hardwood upstairs and tile downstairs. No carpets to pull up (only a little patch in the sunroom which is gonna become the mudroom (to let the dogs out) and two strips of fence to replace (mostly cause the big dog could clear it if he wanted ). The entire kitchen is brand new and upgraded (granite/stainless) and the bathrooms are all brand new. I feel like I'm dreaming. Even the paint is nice. We're only painting the dining room, kitchen and den to suit our tastes.

I already have paint samples here.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!

Org invasion at John's house.

Awesome news John and Tina!

What's new with me??

Hmmmm not much at the moment.

Just got back from a fab trip back home to Florida a few weeks ago to see family and friends.

Other than that, just hoping my last winter here will be milder than last.

Sort of ready to be done with 2010. I think 2011 will be a good year to move! My wonderful hubby is going through his US visa process so we can move back to the states.

Can't wait to have you in the states.

Especially since I'll get to travel down with Ron on his work trips fairly often.

Think of the trouble that you, me, Ron, Phil, Erin & Chris could get into!

Good point.

I doubt the org would bail us out.

Congrats on the grandbaby Tina!!!

And more congrats John on the house!!

Nothing exciting new here. I've been trying to get back to normal. I've reconnected with some friends I let slide because of my last relationship. I'm just working on getting to a place where I feel good about me and my life.

Sounds awesome! I look forward to the photowhore pics of your new home.

Congrats!!!

OMG! You're gonna be a grandmommie!

Well... let's see, I gotta clean bill of health, "Mr. swollen dick" is Ok... I think he was using Viagra, though he still denies it. He's not so swollen now after my complaints.

My older son decided to tutor troubled teens, my younger son is getting better in school, he has a learning disability, and I am now conducting 2 separate fund raisers for my kids school.

Life is pretty boring... but nice.

congrats tina!! babies are awesome!

2010 has been pretty kickass by and large. I've been busier than usual which is why I'm not posting here as much. In july i moved across town and lucked out- for the first time in my life i have awesome roommates! Quiet, fairly clean, and not nosy at all.

I travel all over the US for my job (once a month or so for a week) and i ADORE it; it's a very work hard-play hard type of atmosphere that is usually fun. I might apply for a new position where I'd be travelling 50-60% of the time and working from home for the remainder, but haven't decided yet if i want to or not.

I've been dating a fantastic man who treats me better than anyone ever has. We've been taking things veeery slowly which confuses my friends & family, but works great for me. We work together, but our office is large enough that we don't see each other every day so it's worked out great. He's a musician as well. We just got back from one of our random extended weekend trips so I'm pretty much happy as can be right now.
