Welcome to my blog! Mike and I were married on July 22, 2006 in Erie, PA. Although we're not technically considered newlyweds anymore, we still feel like we are! We live in a house we rent from my MIL with our dog, a pap-a-poo mix, Louis (pronounced "Louie") who is our pride and joy. I'm finishing up school full time to get my BA in finance while working full-time in a financial aid office and Mike is currently a technician for a national aerospace corporation. While we lead fairly boring lives, I'll try to spice things up from time to time to make the blog more exciting to read :)

Midterms are done! Whoo hoo!

Posted Friday, October 10, 2008 10:31 AM

I'm so glad this week is over! I had two midterms (thankfully, I didn't have one in my 3rd class) - one on Wednesday and one on Thursday in my Estate Planning and my Tax Accounting courses. Both were open book but they were difficult tests. I think I

Performance Review

Posted Wednesday, October 01, 2008 11:33 AM

I have my very first performance review today at 2:00 and, needless to say, I'm very nervous. My previous employer hardly ever gave raises so they never saw the need to do them. Then, last year at performance review time I hadn't been with the company

Didn't get the job.

Posted Wednesday, September 17, 2008 8:53 AM

I actually found out on Friday but this is the first time I've had a moment to write an update. Unfortunately, the job went to the coworker who I was 99% sure was going to get it anyway. I was a bit salty in the beginning since I have 5+ years of experience

I took the plunge.

Well - I did it. I applied this morning for the Assistant Director position. I'm nervous. Like, really nervous. I have no idea if I truly want this job or not. I guess I'll just see what happens for now and deal with it later. I figured it was better

I'm torn. Last week at work, we were notified of the resignation of one of the Assistant Directors of Financial Aid. Although no official job postings have been made as of yet, the word on the street is that the administration would like to hire from

The times, they are a changing.

For the past two years, life has been somewhat on hold for us. It feels as if so many decisions are still up in the air until I finish school next year. For starters, we're not sure if we want to stay in Erie due to the possibility of limited job opportunities

Whoo hoo! I'm done!

Posted Thursday, August 07, 2008 8:58 AM

It's been a few days, but work has been really busy and that's usually where I update my blog. Sunday evening I FINALLY finished up my summer term of school. All of my final papers have been submitted and my grades have been posted. I ended up with an

Finally done!

Posted Sunday, July 20, 2008 11:27 AM

With Mike out of the house for the weekend, I've been cramming as much homework as possible into the past two days. I've managed to get two of my papers written and I'm caught up on all my reading and other assignments. Thank goodness, I don't think I
