Been A Busy Couple of Weeks

I thought I would put this picture in. This is my first scarf that I have ever made. I have made quite a few since this one. I think I have lost count of how many I have made since I started back in October. It is fun, but now I have to start making other things than scarves.

Everything is pretty much the same with me. I have had a rough week with work problems, but hopefully that will resolve soon. We start our testing for the new program next week, so that I will be a couple of weeks of intense work here in our office and my department. If everything goes well, then hopefully by either the last weekend of March or the first weekend of April we will go live with the new program and I will have a little bit of a break after awhile of intense work. I know the first release we will have to enter the linelist information, but after that we should be okay.
My weekend with Dené last week was wonderful. I didn't go to Knott's Berry Farm like we wanted to because of money, but we did have a lot of fun. I saw some cousin and an Uncle that I usually only see at Xmas so that was a nice change. It is so hard for me to get around lately because of my car situation. I just sent a big payment to one of my larger credit cards thanks to my refund, so hopefully after I pay that one off and one other one I should be able to afford a car by summertime. People keep on telling me that I don't have to worry about a down payment, but I don't want to have big payments, so even if I just put a couple of thousand down, it is better than nothing. My day is almost over which means my week is almost over, so I am happy about that. Well I should go now. Until next time...

What A Game

You know that this is a great sight to see. The Pittsburgh Steelers won the Super Bowl yesterday in Detroit. I think that the best part was that the Bus announced his retirement after the game so the other players wouldn't be nervous about it being his last game. I was supposed to go and watch the game with Dené and Michelle, but that wasn't able to happen so I ended up watching it with Mary at her place since our cable was out for most of the game.
So much has happened since I wrote in you last. I got a promotion. I am doing some of the work now and it wasn't supposed to take affect until April, but that is okay because at least I will used to it by the time I really have to do the work. Now if the money would only show the change of my work though.
Well in a couple of weeks I am taking Amtrak down to Santa Ana to spend the weekend with Dené. I haven't seen her since before my whole car situation happened and boy do I miss the time we had together. We are hoping to be able to go to Knott's Berry Farm if both of us can afford it. We will see. Well I gotta go now. I will talk to you soon. Until next time...
