Back to work

It was nice having a wonderful vacation during the Christmas holidays. I got used to not coming to work and spending time with the family. Oh well, I have to support them so we have food on the table, a place to sleep, heating, and gas in the car.

I feel really good about this year and what it has in store. I plan on working hard at my job, remembering the great time I had with my family over the break so I take advantage of that more often every day, and continue to improve personally.

Baby Mandrake

We have lovingly bestowed the nickname of "Baby Mandrake" to our little daughter. It's not that she looks like one, but she can surely sound like one some times. It's in reference to the Baby Mandrake from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. It's not the annoying shrilling kind from the movie. It's a very cute sound like she's trying to communicate and tell us something.
