Hooray for Geoff!

Geoff got an internship this week! The internship is part-time so he will be able to take classes at the same time as gaining the real work experience. We feel so blessed because he will get international experience to earn his global business certificate, be able to graduate in april as oppossed to august (if he would have gotten a full-time internship graduation would have been psotponed at least a semster), and make money! The internship is doing credit analysis work at Novell. Geoff's got 2 more weeks of class until finals and then he can finally have somewhat of a summer the last 2 weeks in august before classes start for fall semester. He really deserves some grand cruise or expensive resort but we're saving for little Garrett and my will-be 8 month pregnant belly limits our travel options.


I started my new job doing customer service for QuickBase which is a product from Intuit which also makes turbotax and Quickbooks. Last week was a nightmare as i came home and cried 3 out of 5 days because i felt like i was learning too slowly, etc. I actually talked on the phone to customers today and felt more validated and time went by so much faster. Im really struggling with 8 hour work days while being pregnant. I am exhausted and my back kills me! Im hoping the positive trend continues throughtout this week. It reallly has made a huge difference being able to be busy on the phone with customers.
