Workin' in a Coal Mine

I have been back at work for a over a month and things are going well. My co-workers are good women and I enjoy their company. Remembering policy and the basics of the job have been more difficult then I thought they would be. It's shocking to think that this spring I'll have been employed here for five years.

Keeping things running at home are tricky, but I think we are starting to get into a routine. Aaron is working hard on his applications for grad school so Lump* is spending some more time with his Nana to give Dad uninterrupted time before work. My mommy guilt really doesn't leave a ton of opening for babysitters. I'd love to go to the gym, but I'm horrid at getting up early and so I'll have to make do with Billy Blanks and Jillian Michaels.

Aaron and I voted yesterday in record time. We waited in line for two hours during the primaries and decided to take advantage of early voting. So those of you in Utah who are registered have until Friday before you are doomed to waiting in long lines!!

* We've had people ask why we refer to our son as Lump. When he was born Ash developed a HUGE lump on his head from delivery that hung around until he was eight weeks. So I just started calling him Lump and babies are just kind of like lumps.

Don't you just love Jillian Michaels! She totally kicks my butt! You are such a great mom and I think it's great that you spend as much time with Asher as possible! Way to go on voting...we did absentee because we are both out of state during the elections!

We just voted yesterday, the last day of early voting. A nice 1 1/2 hour wait. I told Steve the irony will probably be the short lines at our own precinct come Tuesday. Oh well! I think I'll go back to the mail in route - that was so slick in college!
Way to go on hanging out with Billy and Jillian. You're a maniac! I'm hoping that my time watching the Biggest Loser somehow effects my body because other than chasing my boys, that's about as close to exercising as I get! We need to come visit you for a playday!
