News

Well, since the last time I posted a lot has changed.....
1)Lea is preggers with my little baby girl
2)Lea's wonderful grandfather passed away and now our baby girl has her own personal angel
3)I finished my first full year of grad school....1 more to go
4)My territory doubled in size and now I cover from Jacksonville, FL to Fayetteville, NC.

So, as you can see I/we have been very busy these last 3 months.

We are currently throwing around baby names and are not having much luck. There are a couple that we both like, but are not absolutely in love with. Any ideas?

I will be starting to work on the nursery in the next couple of weekends, and am really excited about that. It should be fun! Thank God for very handy neighbors who have all offered the help and tools. I will supply the food and booze, they will supply their expertise!!!!!

More to come....keep checking back!!!!!

I'm Back

Just an update....I am back and better than ever!!!!

I will be updating this blog...so please check back.

Lots of news and opinions are forthcoming.

Thoughts...

Work is crazy.......its amazing, everything you hear from top level executives is don't micromanage your people. Okay, I am with that; I don't want to be micromanaged, and thankfully I am not. However, when I deal with people at my work, i.e. ask for quotes, leadtimes, etc. I never get an answer back unless I call them or follow up otherwise. Now, this is setting a trend that I don't want to be on...MICROMANAGING. I am able to take a step back and look at the situation and be reasonable, but if someone takes 2 weeks to get back to me I feel that is unacceptable.

Health Insurance....I have a great health insurance policy, but it is so frustrating when you think you are doing everything right, and then you get an explanation of benefits in the mail and you owe this amount because this isn't covered or you have to meet your deductible. WHAT THE HELL!!!!!!!!! My thinking is either I have insurance or not, forget all this other BS...

Ohio State vs Michigan this weekend, should be a blowout, but fun nonetheless.

Only a couple more posts......

Family...

Well, I had a very relaxing, no worries weekend. My folks came in town on Friday afternoon to spend some time with us. We went out to a very nice dinner on Friday night complete with some red wine and seafood. Saturday, Lea and my mom, went shopping all day long while my old man and I watched football and drank beer. Just like the good ol' days! Sunday they got up very early to head back to Atlanta. Lea and I got up early as well, went to church and had Sunday brunch at Carolina Jo's. After that, we headed back to the house to hang up new chandeliers we got. I expected them to be much harder to hang, but they ended up being relatively easy.

This week, Lea starts her new job as an office manager at an eye care center in West Ashley. This weekend should be another easy weekend for us, then we head off to Columbus, OH for the Ohio State vs Michigan game. OH-IO......

Tough Weekend......

Well, Georgia got their a** kicked this weekend by Florida in Jacksonville. I had the pleasure of being in Jacksonville for what I thought would be the beginning of our trip to the national championship game in Miami in January. Well, I couldn't have been more wrong....... They looked horrible, slow, not ready to play....everything that a team who gets beat by 39 points looks like. Now, I have one huge complaint to make and that is with Mark Richt and his genius special teams coach who thought that an onside kick in the FIRST HALF would be a smart move. Now, I don't necessarily have a problem with that call, but I do have a problem with that fact that they made it, but didn't have anyone there to execute they play. The PK kicked the ball right to the UF player, no big bounce, nothing. UNACCEPTABLE!

My parents are coming in town this weekend, so that should be fun.

PARTAY....

This past weekend we went to a Halloween costume party in the neighborhood. Lea and I both dressed up as Bloods. It was pretty fun, there were a lot of very cool costumes. The hosts had a prize for the best costume, and a guy who was dressed up as Lt. Jim Dangle from RENO 911 won. It was amazing, he had super short shorts and a sweet mustache. Very funny! This Thursday I leave for St. Simon's Island, then on to Jacksonville, FL for the UGA vs UF game. I am so excited, but very nervous because this is a must win for both teams if they want a shot at the national title. Stay tuned for next weeks post for a review of the weekend.

Halloween......

Last weekend was great! One of our neighbors was turning 30 so he had his "Dirty 30" party. It was so much fun! He turned his garage into like a bar/club type thing complete with a VIP area. So awesome! The cops almost shut us down, but after some talking they left and we continued our party till all hours of the morning. This weekend Lea and I are going to a Halloween costume party on Saturday. Should be fun....stay tuned.
