A Mighty Long Time

Hi everyone. It seems like forever since I have posted any personal stuff. Here is an update for the month of November. My workplace put everyone on a 3-day work week. It is kinda sucky, but I am getting things done around the two houses. My dad and I have been emptying out the old house and I have been unpacking boxes here at the new one. I stopped my 401K and changed my deductions on my paycheck to 7 dependants (totally legitimately) so no taxes are taken out of my pay. My dad and I have all the rooms painted in the new house.(almost) The half bath needs a few more coats as it is a deep red. I have 2 coats on it already and it will probably need 2 more. Crap! Thanksgiving was a HUGE success. We hosted my family for the Thanksgiving meal at 1 pm and Juju's family came over at 7 pm for deserts. Our oven was not working at the time. A shut-off was broken when it was installed. So Juju cooked at the catering business. The oven was fixed today along with the internets starting up. I have had it hooked-up for 3 days now. This morning i got up and looked at the modem and the internets light was on. I thought I had installed the phone line incorrectly, but I guess it was a verizon problem. It is a happy day in the Boki Mame household. I have an oven and the internets. Yippee, Juju has been jonesing to bake cookies and I have been jonesing it visit my... frugality blogs (you thought I was gonna type porn sites, didn't ya). Cooter should be getting up from his nap soon and I am gonna get a wink or 2 in beore starts opening his eyes. Working wed, thurs, fri next week and mon, tues, wed the next. Then another 6 day weekend. I could really get used to this... lol.
