Every time you are tempted to react in the same old way, ask if you want to be a prisoner of the past or a pioneer of the future.

Graduating !!!

Whoot! After a DIFFICULT fight with the testing company - I finally got my scores from the test and I PASSED!

I missed the portfolio presentation session for the May graduation, but.... as it turns out (after stressing-out about missing this session to the point of making myself almost get sick) the college I am transferring to to finish the degree is the only transfer college that DOES NOT require a passing portfolio to be accepted to the School of Education - Teaching License - Here I Come!

Bye, Bye

Bye Tigger! Yes, the cat is gone and his new family has officially renamed him Gordo (Fat Boy). They said he was a little freaked out, but think that he will adjust just fine in a couple days. I think his new name is highly appropriate for him. =) We're going to miss Tigger in a lot of ways because he has been with us for at least eight years, but we're just not cat people and our house was starting to smell like cat. I think this will work out for all parties involved. The new family is happy to have him. =)

Spending and more spending

We're officially in the market for a new car. Mine is the one with all the minor problems that is nickel and dimming us to death, but we decided that we need to get rid of the sports car now that baby is coming. So, we are starting that search today.

Went to Morton's for dinner in Chicago last night to celebrate Chris's raise at work... Got out of there with only a $124 bill for the two of us.... and that was meal for only one person. I think we were the only people to walk out of there without a dogie bag.
