One more year has passed

Well, here it is. December 9th. 34 years ago my mother brought me into the world. It's hard to believe, but it's the truth. Now how old does that make you feel?

Where were you in December of 1975?

Numbers

11 months ago I became an aunt.

8 months ago I was laid off

6 months ago I was in a motorcycle accident and Jake ruptured his ACL

4 months ago Jake got into the VA clinic for his knee

1 month ago I met with my dislocated worker program counselor and finally got the ball rolling for my future in a health care field.

2 weeks ago I had a job another job interview that went no where

1 day ago my roller derby team started the 2010 season, the third season for the league.

Trying

I hate that most of my blogs have started with trying to explain that it has been a month since my last post.

Jake and I have been busy doing nothing. My temp job came to an end. I was accepted to the dislocated worker program, had my first interview yesterday. I have class to go to the last week of Oct. Jake is doing much better in therapy than his therapist expected. Hopefully that will mean he can go back to work sooner than the doctors say.
This is Jake's knee 3 days after surgery.

I have been completely released by my doctor to return to my normal roller derby activities, with no restrictions.

An update on the Extreme Home Make Over, the show I helped out on will air on Nov 11th.

That is all I really have for now.
