Time is flying by too quickly

Hello my family!

I figured I'd drop an update. It's been awhile since I've actually written anything on here. Hee hee.

Florida is beautiful. Today is nothing but blue skies and sunshine. I hear that there was a bit of snow out your way yesterday. I was wishing a friend happy birthday and she said, "It sucks. I'm sick and it's snowing. Good thing I don't really care about my birthday." Then she sent me a picture of the snow. "BRRRRR" and "ewwww..." were all I could say about that.

Things are going well. I really like it here, but there are times where I get lonely and wish I had a friend to call up and spend some time with. That is one drawback of working from home. It's hard to find friends. I've been pretty fortunate with work as of late. We had to let my reporter go because she had not paid her bill in quite some time. My mom was still paying me for the work, but wasn't getting paid at all. We cut that reporter loose, but then Jamie called with some great news. She knew a reporter that was looking for a scopist. Turns out, she had the program that I'm working with. She keeps me nice and busy, plus she is a very good writer so I can finish jobs more quickly. She has some strange quirks when it comes to the proofing, which drives mom crazy, but work is work, am I right?

I've decided to go back to school and get a degree. I don't know what to get it in yet, but going back is a start. Speaking of school. Jake is working so hard at it. Last semester he took one class. This semester he is taking two. One he doesn't care for, but it's an easy A. It's art history, but they rarely talk about art. Usually the prof talks about sandwiches or other things. His other class is Anthropology and he LOVES it. I actually sat in one day and really enjoyed myself. You can tell the the prof loves the subject she teaches. I'm actually planning on taking her class in the fall. Oh, I'm going off course. Jake was planning on taking summer off, but realized that if he keeps busy, he'll be done with his associates in 2012. So he signed up for three classes. He'll be taking Earth Science, Biology and Algebra. When I heard that my first response was, "Geez, way to take a fun class." His reply, "What? Earth Science and Biology are fun. Math is the not fun one." I'm so proud of him. He's been working so hard.

Things are going well on his work end of things as well. He works hard and does his job well. He's constantly fixing the mistakes of the night crew. His work is moving buildings soon, but his boss refuses to tell them where. It's like it's some major secret. For all you know, the place might be bugged by an opposing company waiting to grab up the new super secret print shop! No, he didn't say that exactly, but he certainly acts that way.

I miss you, my family. I hope that you all are well and life is wonderful for you all. I love you all.
