Back to work

After a nice little 4 year "vacation", I have returned back to the old grind.  I have started a position as a bookkeeper with a engineering firm in Rio Linda. Its a 45 minute commute with absolutely no one else on the road. No traffic = easy commute. The books and filing system are in shambles. I definately have my work cut out for me. I've been there for 1 week now and love it. I didn't realize how much I missed it. They use the same accounting software as my last job, which makes things easier. I really enjoy the people I work with and feel very welcomed.
I was going to put Finnigan in daycare, but Billy got laid off and is able to watch him while I'm at work. Saves us on $$ and lets him get to experience what I've been doing the last 4 years. I think he has a greater appreciation now. He's a great "Mr. Mom". He's patient but firm and is constantly playing with Finn. He can cook by just throwing things together, where as I need a recipe. The kitchen is usually a disaster by the time I get home tho, but he cleans up. He makes me coffee in the mornings and makes sure I have lunch for the next day. The laundry is done and all I have to do is put my feet up and relax. I could get use to this.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving this year was quite mellow. We went to Grandpa Brian and Antje's for a fantastic feast. Visited with friends and family. Finn ran around and entertained everyone, including Bella and Buddy the dogs. Got to bring home some nice left overs too. No pictures this time. I get to busy interacting and forget.
