Skiing

Meagan, Brenna, Sarah, my parents, and me went skiing to Wintergreen yesterday. Once they had their lesson and went down the hill once after that they all had a good time. It was a pretty good day for it, just a little windy. Temperature was just a bit below freezing, cold enough for them to make snow. Meagan had the hang of turning for the most part by the time we left, and was doing pretty well. Brenna and Sarah we're still falling most of the time when they turned, but had improved a good bit during the day. On our last run right after lunch they were all tired, Brenna and Sarah not doing as well. They all said they wanted to go again, don't know if we'll get a chance this season or not. I think I will try snowboarding next time we go.

House

Well, got a new set of documents to the loan officer today, as they needed more recent copies of everything I had given them before because it has taken so long to get the release approved. Thankfully it was all easy to get my hands on. I love doing everything online. Now if ING would just do checking accounts.
I've been doing some Tai Chi lately, and I need to get back into doing yoga, my back has started bothering me again, due to me sitting almost all day long no doubt. The 90 minute round trip drive doesn't help, but at least I don't have to deal with much traffic, that would put me over the edge. I'm going to ask Wachovia again about getting remote access to their network so I can work from home sometimes. Would be nice to be able to work from home once or twice a week again.

Karate

The kids are doing well in Karate. Meagan and Brenna are making good progress. Sarah is doing well also, but I think she is tired by the time we get there, so is somewhat distracted, jumping around and playing games. Hopefully Meagan and Brenna will be ready to get into the 11+ program soon so I can start taking it with them.

Good news on the house today, Debra and Joe's bank approved the partial release and the documents should be at the title agency tomorrow to be signed and filed with the county. We are supposed to close on the house next Thursday, and hopefully building will proceed quickly from there! I am very excited and definitely ready to get into my own house again.
