We're waiting!

Hubs submitted his application for voluntary separation.  There were so many "signs" that would have made some people second guess their decision.  Not hubs.  He was determined to apply.  I'm glad he did, but those "signs" may have turned me to thinking twice. 
1st sign was them putting the officer applications on hold.
2nd sign was two weeks from then and the officers were supposed to be able to apply.  They put it on hold again, for another week.
3rd sign, was yesterday, the day it was supposed to be open.  Hubs goes in and tries to apply first thing.  Sends me an email showing the site is down.  Sign?  Hubs is still determined to apply so he called the help desk and talked to them for 20 minutes on his way home for lunch.  He goes back into work and the site is working and he applies.

If he gets accepted for separation, we'll have a few months to get our ducks in a row and land him a well paying job with benefits.  We most likely won't hear anything on this for a few weeks/month(s).

We're excited for the possibilities of where our lives can go!


I've been working hard at making the kids' Valentine's for their classes.  Since they are going 4 days a week, we have elected to give Valentine's every day.  So, both kids are taking something and passing out to their friends.  Today Sterling took a "flower"-sucker, cupcake liners, and a card-stock leaf.  So adorable!  Xander, well today he just took starbursts with a Valentine message on each package.  Next week will be big for him!  I went to Office Max this morning and printed off the Valentine cards I created for our exchanges next week.  They are SUPER cute!  I used MS Word to create the cards and am in LOVE with how they turned out.  I think I may found my new niche in life! I have pictures but haven't uploaded yet, hopefully by Sunday I will get our fun projects posted.
