ok well....

ha, little did I know when I posted last, what would transpire later that week. On Friday, November 14 I was laid off from ClubCorp AGAIN! You would think that after everything that happened at the end of 2006 that this wouldnt happen. Ah well.... they just said the company wasnt making enough profit for the owners and budgets were being cut again thus laying off another 45 or so people in the office and at regional levels. Soooo I begin again with the job search.

On the upside, it gave me time to get some doctor appointments out of the way that I hadnt had time to do during the first 3/4 of the year. I had the birthmark on my shoulder removed finally... Doctors for the past 18 years or so had been telling me to get it taken care of. I believe in intuition and something told me... time to get it done, so I did. Pathology all came back clear so that was good. Finally made it to the dentist and the ol' yearly woman check up I was a year over due on.

On a good note, we had a great Thanksgiving with about 20 people here. We had a fun time seeing the family and friends. Be sure to check out Theresa's blog (link to the right,) Im sure she will have some pictures up soon. She also gave me the cutest scrapbook showing the thanksgivings we've all had together over the past 8 years. Mom came over several days to help get the house clean and cooking done since I had so many stitches in my shoulder and the doctor said no lifting for a few days. Got up early on Friday morning and made a quick Best Buy run so we could get mom and dad a new TV. They had a 60" DLP Mitsubishi tv for $999. I think they are loving it a lot from the sound of it!

We were able to get Derek's senior pictures done on Sunday... here are just a couple for you to see. The rest are here if you want to see them all.
