Unemployed

Oh my. It seems like forever now since I've posted anything. The days are busy/packed in the Thomson household.

Rick was laid off on the 2nd. Going on 2 weeks now and still no work is quite distressing, but we are trying to stay positive... at least he's made some progress on the wall to the classroom! Next up: A Door! Yaaay! It has been a challenge for both of us adjusting to him being home. Fortunately we still love each other. Whew! That was a close one!

Homeschooling is still going well. I still struggle with Hattie - motivating her, and making sure she's LEARNING. I also just learned that Jason is almost at 2nd grade level in Math. Impressive! And I am a proud Mommy. Oh yeah, he's in kindergarten, in case anyone was wondering... :-)

Tonight Hattie is at rehearsal for her play until 8:30 (with Daddy) so I have a moment to catch my breath a bit. Although I have a bit of a cough so maybe not really catching my breath. At least catching my blog up a bit.

This weekend our ward at church went through a bit of a restructuring. They split two wards to create a third ward. We are still in the same ward, but we've lost a lot of the families that we used to go to church with. Kind of a bummer. I am, however, looking forward to getting a new calling and starting to serve (again). It's been about 2 years now! Plus our good friend was called as the bishop of our ward, so I feel really positive and happy about that. :-)

Fussy baby prevents any more revelation tonight. Hopefully I'll get on again before Thanksgiving!
