Work is crazy!!!

Someone else has left my office and things are still crazy. I don't think things will slow down until October, when the other team will be integrated back into Farmers claims. They have been handling claims for one of our subsiderary companies, Bristol West, until they could switch over all BW claims to Farmers Ins claims. It may even get more confusing as Farmers has bought part of AIG, 21st Century Insurance just last month. So it's good to see my company be aggressive and grow while economic times are a little uncertain.

Well the kids have been doing okay. We have started the level system, so that the consequences for behavior can be consistent. We just feel that the kids weren't improving and maybe this would help. We are even doing some things to help them take more control in getting up for school...show more responsibility. So far so good with that. N seems to like his new high school.

Our malibu has broken down again...got towed from the freeway as we didn't move it in time. Then had to have it towed to our house. Therefore, we are buying a new used car and will use the malibu as a third car...maybe for N. It has been a mess for sure since the beginning. I will never buy a Chevy, Dodge or Ford. My work car is even having transmission issues at the 1.5 year mark. Sheesh, it's still new.

So college football is coming in two weeks. I am so pumped. I love football. We lost our peewee football game on Satuday. The other team had a great qb and we don't exactly have a system set up to defend the pass well. We didn't even score. I am the DC and we did okay but not great. It's hard to handle kids this age as they are 11 or 12. Almost half of the team don't exactly have much of a football instinct and seem disinterested all of the time. We'll see how much they improve.

I'm excited for our two trips over the next few months. We are headed to New Orleans for a few days in September when BYU plays Tulane. Then in October we go down to St. George with 4 of our couple friends. They both should be nice breaks. Although R will be coming with us to NO as she is free still for everything.

Anyway, life is going pretty well. Anna just ran a half marathon yesterday down in springville. I'm so proud of her as that isn't easy....especially considering she has asthma. I love her so much, even when we drive each other nuts.

So we are pretty busy lately!!!

Summer is thankfully winding down but dang it has been busy. We have gone on a few trips, survived having the kids home all day every day and have got a few things done outside/inside. It will be nice when the kids are back at school...we have spent a lot of money on food over the summer...at least it seems that way. School does start next week.

So I am the defensive coordinator on G's football team. They needed some help, so I volunteered to help out. It is crazy right now as it is a five day a week commitment right now. But that will go down to 3-4 during school. I also am volunteering again for cougar club security for byu football practices. That is always interesting to me as I love football.

Just finishing up some work and time for bed. Work has been dang busy. I don't think I have been this busy since I have started at Farmers. Just a lot of different factors that is making it crazy for everyone.

Anyway, I just signed up for facebook as I was searching for someone. Nnot sure what I think of it yet. I hate getting all of these friend requests.

And the judge delayed the stuff again...

The attorney got the judge to hold things off until the end of September...then the final stuff in the middle of November. It's crazy to let the kids go on with so much stuff on hold for this long. What a joke.
