January 23, 2018

Life has been crazy around here. I started my new job on December 19th. I am not sure what I was thinking starting a new job a week before Christmas but I did and thankfully we had a great Christmas even with the new craziness. At the beginning of the new year Kevin started traveling every week to Salt Lake. At first it looked like it was going to be short lived but last week we found out that he is getting a promotion to CISO (Chief Information Security Officer). He is shocked by the promotion and do not feel qualified for it at all but I am sure he is going to do great. Since Kevin has been traveling every week and my hours are longer then they will normally be once I am trained, the girls have been home alone a little more then we would like. My schedule should stabilize and I should be able to work from home more in about a month. I am not sure about Kevin. I hope traveling to Utah does not become a weekly thing but right now that is what it looks like.
Yesterday I worked a 10 hour day and did not get home till 8:00 pm. Allison and Ashley did a great job fending for themselves. I did not think that today was going to be a late day but as 5:00 pm approached and I was still working I called and let them know they could go out for dinner and I would hopefully be home soon. Allison felt like she could make dinner so instead of going out she followed my menu and made some wonderful baked salmon and baked broccoli. When I got home at 7, it was so nice to have a plate waiting for me and the kitchen cleaned. I am so thankful for the girls good attitudes and their willingness to step up and be helpful during this crazy time. I promise that they are going to get their mom back.
