I've neglected my Blog


I know...it's been awhile since I've been on here and I apologize to those who actually read this and keep up with us. This blog is going to kinda be all over the place so hang on:

Stu and I are very busy....we both are waiting for things to calm down and I just don't think that day is coming any time soon. I know I'm getting complaints from friends who are not receiving phone calls, but lets face it if you are my good friend you already know getting me on the phone is almost impossible...I'm the email queen, and I'm sorry...shoot me an email and I promise I'll write you back. Ever since I got down here our careers and lives have just taken off, which is wonderful, but exhausting at the same time. This is by far the busiest city I've been to. There is always something going on and Stu and I both like to explore so every second we are not at work we are exploring this city or we are at home planning our next adventure. We both know our time here is limited so we are trying to get in as much as possible before he gets transferred again.

Next Saturday, October 18th, is the Crescent City Classics BBQ and Blues Festival downtown New Orleans. (I will post pics after the 18th). The company I work for (New Orleans Police and Justice Foundation) runs all the behind the scene stuff. Like T-Shirt sales, advertising, registration to run in the 10K, basically we work our butts off to raise money for the local police districts, who are really hurting right now. With the date closing in we are over the top busy and I'm just worn out. I can't wait for race day to get here. Stu and I are helping at the membership registration booth.

Stu and I have officially booked a vacation. I have convinced him to take a week off work...a year ago this never would have crossed his mind. We are taking an 8 day cruise out of New Orleans, how convenient I know, and we are heading to Belize, Guatemala, Costa Maya, and Cozumel. It's a Norwegian Cruise, which I have never been on. I've been on Royal Caribbean and Carnival a few times. I hear Norwegian is nice...so we'll cross our fingers and hope for the best. The beach is my favorite place in the world....I can't wait to jump in that clear Caribbean water and snorkel. The sea is the most amazing place. I keep telling Stu we need to get scuba certified. We will have to put that on our list of goals.
