Florida Crew update

Sorry that it has been so long everyone. There is never a whole lot going on with me so I forget to hop on and share. The Florida crew did make it home nice and safe. It was so great to see them! I was so lonely. It would've been so wonderful to see you all. I have to admit that I'm quite jealous for missing out on all the family fun. Hee hee.

Jake is doing well. He quit smoking and has been smoke free since July. His job is keeping him busy, but not too busy. Yesterday was his first day of school. Right now he's just taking one class (math) to get a feel for what he'll be able to handle next semester. The math class is only once a week, Friday 5:15 to 9:30-ish. This includes the lab. I think that he'll do well. I'm also very proud of him for making this decision to take a big step forward. :-) It's about time he jumped in and got his feet wet.

Things are going well for me, I suppose. I'm a little stress right now about money (the one thing Jake says is stupid to stress over and that I should never stress it.) July was a good work month for me, but August came and went with hardly any work. $74.50 was my grand total for August. I'm going to go and apply for a position with Orange County Public Schools in the Food and Nutrition Services Department. Three and a half to five hours a day, $135-$190 a week. It would be a good part-time job for me. I found another band to sing with but they're not playing out much so I'm looking for something on the side because I really want to sing more. The search goes on...

Everybody is back in school now. Cody started high school and seems to be enjoying it so far. Josie is now in middle school and loving it. She loves her teachers. She went to the soccer tryouts and earned herself a spot on the school team! My mom is working hard and keeping busy. My dad is doing what he does best. :-) All in all everyone is doing great. I'll leave the family details to my mom. I need to get her behind back on the blog anyway.

Love you all! Miss you like crazy!
