Back in the Swing of Things

Well needless to say the last two weeks have been a little out of the ordinary. I think things are settling down a bit now and I am glad to be getting back to some of my routine. I do much better that way. Usually we have a very quiet little non-complicated life and already this year we have had more excitment and drama than we are used to. I do hope February proves to be less eventful.
Although as I look at my February calendar I see that we are busy everyday all month long there is so much happening and March is filling up quickly.
I am anxiously awaiting a phone call right now about Matthew being transferred to a new school. I have struggled to keep Matthew at his current school over the last few years for a variety of reasons but this year when we got a new pricipal, who has a great deal to be desired, all chances of his remaining went down the toilet. We are trying to get him in a different school but the problem is all the schools are crowded and there is little room for him. I have a Very nice pricipal who is trying her best to get him in her school and if not I will have to file an appeal with the School District. Since I have already made several formal written complaints and had a one on one chat with the superintendant I don't think they will force Matthew to stay at his current school. I just would prefer to get this situation resolved and move on. I think Matthew is a little stressed from it all too but is handling it like a champ.
Matt finally has his webpage ready for release. He is thrilled! He has worked so hard on it and the company he is working for is very happy with the progress. He still has 3 to 4 years before the whole project is complete(maybe the economy will be better by then)so job security is a relief. Last year the company met or exceeded their annual goals with no layoffs in fact they hired through out the year. So we hope Matt will be stable during this economic crisis. He is currently doing a bit of fine tuning on what he has completed and will soon start on the next phase. He loves his work and is very happy with the new company.

Me, Well my house is a disaster. I have so much to do. I have every room to scour and scrub. Spring cleaning seems too far away and I think I will get a start on a few things this week. I would love to get some a painting and a few little improvements done as well.We will see what the finances allow.
I just got the call! Matthew is going to a new school. He starts next week.
Well. I should stop jibbering on and go get something done. Later today when I have more time I will update a few other items on the blog so check in later.
