Totally Terrible Things on Tuesday:

• Starting to send out resume's looking for my next career opportunity.
• Jordan's grades--again.
• If I could find a way to make $75 a month cover: groceries, prescriptions and gas then I wouldn't 'need' a job.
• Fleas.  Found out the dogs have fleas when one jumped on Chris.  Chris is now crabby until I can prove the fleas are gone.
• Stressing about how Chris is going to handle meeting his newest nephew who was named after his grandpa and his cousin--Samuel.

Totally Terrific Things on Tuesday:

• Seeing Annie, John and the girls.
• My Christmas list, for my side of the family, just went from 20 to five.  Six if we decide to get something for the newest baby in the family.
• Great compensation package.  If I have to lose my job there is no better way to lose it than by getting 12 weeks notice followed by a month of salary plus a week for each year with the firm then there is unemployment that I can collect.  So, right now we will be getting my salary through the first week of February.
