Isn't it funny how you want blessings through all the messes you go through and then when you finally start getting the blessings, you're wondering when life is going to take a downturn? We have been extremely blessed lately and we almost don't know what to do with ourselves!
Steve has worked at Oracle for the last 6 years. He started with Siebel and they were bought by Oracle. And downhill went the raises - as in NO raises.
We have many reasons to be mad at them such as mess-ups on paychecks, forgetting to turn in time cards on time, no raises, being forced to work graveyards, etc. BUT we have many blessings from his job too. Job security, amazing benefits for medical, dental and vision, and most of all work experience. He has 6 years of experience doing CRM OnDemand that very few people have. He has become very valuable. He even got a really cool trophy for his hard work.
So on to greener pastures. Steve has been given the amazing opportunity to work for NEC as a consultant. He's THE CRM guy. He builds and supports the application for them. That means travel for the next few weeks and then he'll work from home. Best news? NO MORE GRAVEYARD SHIFT!!!
In other news, Gavin and Ashley both scored goals in their soccer game yesterday! Ashley has scored at least one goal in almost all of her games but this was Gavin's first and it was awesome. He ran with a whole group of kids following him and kicked it right in!
Jakob's doing well his soccer team and has done awesome in his ALL class(Accelerated Learning Lab). And he's almost as tall as me.
And Andy lost his front tooth!!! It was hanging by a thread (well, nerve) for a few days and I finally got it out.
Oh, and me? I'm barely sane but hey who needs sanity anyway?
