New School Year, New Job, New Carpet

The adventures of Betsy and Bulk continue as we prepare for little man to arrive.  School has started and I'm back to teaching 6th grade at Wasatch.  I have a good class - it just seems that keeping track of 33 bodies is somehow exponentially harder than 30.  Strange how that happens.  Keeping track of my body is also somewhat of a challenge.  Each day brings a new surprise - exhaustion, swollen feet, sore back... The joys of pregnancy, right?

Kelly is enjoying his new job at Uhaul.  After a quick hire, a General Manager leaving, an interim GM coming in, a new GM, an assistant manager quitting, and Kelly being promoted to assistant manager, Kelly is settling into a good situation.  He works all sorts of hours and hasn't had a week under 40 hours yet.  But he's happy.  That's what matters!

And finally, new carpet.  It may be an old house with no 2x4's and the most creative venting ever imagined, but it is going to look good!  We got a great deal on carpet at RC Willey and next week will be running our toes through soft, CLEAN, cushy carpet.  I can't wait!  It's all part of the preparation for little man - we couldn't just carpet his room, now could we?  We'll even get the squeaky floors and crooked walls fixed before the carpet comes in.  Yeah!
