Kick Off Meeting

So I started the new job.  Its good.  No complaints whatsoever.  I'm not over the moon about it, as you would think I should be, but I'm not an over the moon kinda girl.  But with the fresh start at a new company doing something that I know I can do, I thought I would give the old blog a fresh coat of paint.  Kids are getting out of school and vacation and summer plans are being made.  I've never thought of Summer as a re-birth like Spring is supposed to be, but with all the changes and beginnings its kinda hard not to. Some things to address as we kick off this next chapter....

1. The Summer Olympics are coming.  I have a new place in my heart for the Olympics because I watched the Winter Olympics after The Boy was born.  I watched a lot of luge and snowboarding and that one where they throw the big loaves of metal in a shuffleboard like manner, curling?  Anyways, the Summer Olympics means just a half way make of nothing. 
2. We're planning out summer vacations.  I'm excited to travel without the baggage of leaving my job.  My new company has been so understanding that there is life outside of the office.  I want to embrace it and enjoy it while I can.  The ever-pessimist, I'm waiting for the other shoe to fall and they start giving me a static about time off. But you know I'm not one to really abuse that so perhaps it won't ever fall. Time will tell.
3. I want to cook more.  And instead of making peanut butter chocolate ice cream cookie layered strawberry tall cake (which still sounds  ah-may-zing) I want to make fancy food.  But not for a cat.  I might start sharing the stuff I make here.  Oh, Pinterest is totally fueling this.  Maybe someday my blog will show on some one's Pinterest board.  Ah, to dream!
4. I want a baby.  I'm not sure if we're ready to start the whole drug process and everything that it will take this time but the need and desire is there and its doable now.  I'm not sure how I'll handle the medication with a two year old, but its a bump, hill, mountain in the road to our family that we will take in stride.
