I had a huge client deadline this past Monday, and I took a section of the CPA exam today. The CPA exam is the bane of my existence right now sad to say, but I feel very confidant that I passed the part I took today and I just have 1 left after this!
So this evening when I got home from my exam, I walked in to my house and on the stairs was this trio of things...(clearly its on my dining room table here but it was on the stairs...so sweet)
Oh Jonathan....how do I love thee, let me count the ways! He is so thoughtful and this was exactly what I needed after the month's business.
Well its been an entire month practically since I've blogged so let's catch up.
Our attic caught on fire last weekend. Well not complete ablaze thanks to a circuit breaker that does its job. But the secondary circuit breaker that we have for the heater only in the attic tripped or something and caught fire and turned off our heating/cooling system. Long story short, we got it fixed immediately but it was scary and we are very fortunate it was not worse, was covered by our warranty, and that we weren't sleeping when it happened. (I have pictures of the box they took out, but I didn't have my card in my camera so I have to find my actual camera cord to get them on here...I'll work on that. the picture is amazing....metal and plastic completely melded together and black...scary)
We joined our sunday school class at second baptist, the Newlywed class. We love the teachers and meeting new young couples every Sunday! It is one of the highlights of every week for me. The class is for couples in their first year of marriage, and is so wonderful at getting us to talk about things we wouldn't normally just bring up, and see God's plan for it all. Its sort of like year long marriage counseling.
The other big thing of the month is that we discovered a new TV show that I am obsessed with!
If you haven't seen The Big Bang Theory on CBS, well its time you did. I have never been this addicted to a sitcom before. We bought the complete second season, couldn't find the first so we got it on netflix, and we watch it every Monday night for the new episodes on CBS at 8:30. The show is about 2 genius scientists living in LA working at a university with their 2 geeky friends, and an aspiring actress, Penny, who works at the Cheesecake Factory and lives across the hall. Its just about their lives and quirks and interactions, but it really is awesome! It is the funniest show I've ever seen. The best episode...if you've never seen it and want to go rent it and be hooked...is in the second season called "The Bath Item Gift Hypothesis".
Besides that...we've been watching the Olympics...trying to keep a clean house, which yes...Jonathan's parent's really did come and clean our house. His mother called me and just offered...and I am not one to look a gift horse in the mouth. I am beyond blessed to have them. A wonderful example of selflessness and care.
Our condo complex has begun construction on the second phase, so that's been interesting watching construction and dealing with that. But I know it is a blessing because it will make property values go up which is always good!As for the future....we are heading to fabulous LAS VEGAS friday!!!! We are going to a join bachelor/bachelorette party for our best friends Stephanie and David. It is going to rock.
Then tomorrow....oh I'm so excited about this.....Jonathan is taking me to go see Celine Dion's documentary movie in Imax about the world tour she just finished (which I saw in Dallas with Mom, Steph, and Maggie last January). I'm so excited. Related to that, mom and I have already decided that we will be making a trip to Las Vegas again in 2011 to see Celine when she revives her Vegas show. No question about it. We will go.
wow...well all I can say is I'm glad we will see each other and can catch up in person.
ReplyDeleteI am glad you are safe and all your possessions didn't go up in flames.
I am proud of you joining a sunday school class...I can't wait to hear more.
It really is going to rock in Vegas...can't wait
