So like most people, I’m paying off student loans. Thankfully, I was able to consolidate all my loans and obtain a really low interest. I just called them to change my account number for the autopay. I happened to ask when the end date is and they told me that if I keep [...]

So my little man is turning 3 next month. I measured his height yesterday and he grew an inch in the past 4 months. Where does the time go? I’m really sorry that I don’t talk too much about him in this blog. It’s not because I don’t want to, I [...]

This is one of my favorite songs from David Pomeranz. I recorded it a couple of weeks ago. Enjoy!

I wish I can say that we’re going somewhere interesting this summer but it looks like we’ll be staying local this time. Not only because of this weird situation with our finances but also because as a new employee, I’m not allowed to use vacation until October. I’m still waiting to see if [...]

I remember back in college, we were asked what our dream goals were. One of my goals back then was to work for the CDC (Centers for Disease Control) in Atlanta. I’ve been working in the public health field for more than 10 years now and it’s amazing to see the different things [...]

I guess lately, I’ve been having more and more of this conversation with several people, mostly moms that have kids around Connor’s age. I’m pretty excited [...]

So it’s been about 2 months or so since I started my new job and things are starting to become routine.  I don’t mean that in a bad way though.  I’m making more friends at work, both outside and in.  I’m getting along pretty well with all of them.  I’ve also learned a lot in [...]

One thing I’m still dealing with is transitioning benefits and all that to my  new job.  I had to wait about a month before I submitted my health benefits form because I was still covered until the end of April from my old job.  However, I found out when I got my recent paycheck that [...]

It seems that since I started my new job, time just flies by.  I actually come home slightly earlier.  I don’t even drive but yet I feel more mentally and physically exhausted than my old job.  I’m not complaining by any means but I guess I’m just trying to figure out why that is.  Because [...]
