Busy and more busy

I know that it has been awhile since my last post. I apologize but I don't seem to have much time anymore.....I wonder why? This 40 hour work thing has taken up much of my time lately. How is one suppose to manage a household, kids, and working full time? I guesss it's not that bad but it certainly has curtailed my computer usage lately. (lack of updates)

The job is going well, and the commute has not been that bad. I've been trying to get into the office by 7:30 AM so I can be out of there and home by 4:30. So far it's been working nicely. The workload has been steadily increasing at the job and I have been watching my caseload grow. Just when you think you're catching up, a new pile of claims mysteriously arrive on top of your desk. I've been getting a little quicker doing the basic cases but still not as fast as the others. I understand it much better but I guess I will forever be slow. Today, just when my confidence was growing, I had to be trained on medical reviews. It'll take another two weeks for me to understand this but hopefully by then I will win the lottery. (just kidding)

The family is doing well. Big B has come down with a stomach bug and I pray that he doesn't share it with the rest of his beloved family. I came home today to find the windows all closed and the feeling that the germs were having a field day being stuck in the house. One thing that I truly do not like is having the windows closed when there is sickness in the house. His excuse was that it was cold outside.....you think he had a fever?

Besides Big B feeling sick, we have been stressing over the upcoming Beef N Beer. The baskets still need to be completed and the gift cards need to be written out. A couple of people have offered their time this weekend and I am deeply appreciative for that. I hope to have it all completed by Sunday evening but I think that is a long shot.
We seem to have a pretty good variety of gifts to raffle so I do not think that people will be disappointed. So if you haven't purchased your tickets yet, just call!

Sorry for the short post this evening, but hopefully this weekend I will be able to write more and post pictures.

And don't forget!!! Go PHILLIES!!!!
