OK I haven’t blogged as often as I’d like to and I apologize.. Really no other reason why I haven’t blogged expect that I’ve been LAZY… So just as an update….
I’m still working at Fidelity National, I’ve been there almost three months and that job is pretty cool and stress free. I started working at nights but thankfully I got my shift changed to days.. That’s a good thing since I get to see jojo and june more often.
Speaking of the family.. some pretty cool news regarding both of them.. Junalyn got employee of the month last month and Joselyn is going to receive the student of the month in her FIRST month of kindergarten.. That has really gotten me excited and proud of my little girl… well both of my girls heh.!
As I’m typing this.. we are currently staying athe Marriot Courtyard in Palos Verdes.. We just decided to stay here for the night on a spontaneous binge and we’ve had a really fun time.. Jojo’s been swimming and we ate a curry house for a late lunch/early dinner and she’s having a blast…
So I’m about to knock out now and tomorrow we’re gonna go swimming again.. then after that we’ll figure out what we want to do.. Soo for now g-nite..

Can’t believe out little one is actually starting “real” school. She’ll start kindergarten on Sept. 4th and will be going to Bethany Christian School. She can’t wait to start going to school and we’re excited as well.
She’s actually gonna have “homework” and need to be at school “on-time” heh…

Soo I’m going back to work on Monday.. Have no idea how that will be, I’ve been out of work for almost a month and although I’m enjoying the time off and the time i’m spending with my daughter, I’m actually excited.
I’m going to be working on a temp to hire basis for Fidelity National starting off with a salary a little over 30K as a temp. If I get hired on I should be making decent money afterwards.
It’s about a 30 minute drive but I don’t mind since it’s my alone time.. and I’ll get to listen to my music and whatever else I want to listen to..
The good thing about this job is that I don’t have to deal with customers and will not be on the phone, I’ll just be typing alot and whatever else needs to be done. I need to buy an IPOD since I can’t find my nano and they are allowing us to have a portable music player while working….

We’re back in LA, we’ve been back for about a week. It took us 4 1/2 days to drive here, it was fun but LONG.
It took me about 2 days to find a job which is a good thing, but the job won’t start until June 30th so that means I still got two weeks to go without a paycheck. =-/. It pays about the same as what I was making in South Carolina, but after 3 months I will get a bump in pay. Currently we’re living at Junalyn’s parent’s house in the DEN. It’s free so I can’t complain. But I REALLY miss my HOME in SC =/.
Lakers a down 3-1 to the friggen Celtics and could be done tomorrow, but I still have faith.. They can pull off the impossible if they win the next three. It does seem unlikely but I believe they can do it.

Yes just as the title reads, I’m still alive. Although I haven’t blogged in over a month ALOT has happened. In short summary:
- I quit my job, my last day was today and we’re moving back to LA
- My wife has been in LA for the last 3 weeks and will be flying back on Saturday to drive back to LA with me.
- She’s been working there and have been looking for a place for us to stay
- But in the meanwhile we’ll be staying at her parents house until we get our head above water.
To be honest, I’m REALLY excited about this move. I can’t wait to be back in HOME in LA. This time we’re older and we will be able to make the right decisions regarding LIFE.

This weeekend came and gone probably because we spent the whole time together and had a ton of fun. Yesterday we had lunch at Smokey Bones in North Charleston. Jojo’s favorite restaurant here because of their infamous Mac N Cheese. Junalyn made a funny joke that she ordered Jojo Shrimp with Brocolli and got Jojo really worried and kind of mad =/. But when the food was served she was all laughs and said she knew that Mommy ordered her the Mac N Cheese. After lunch we headed home and June got stuck playing Peggle on the PC. It’s a very addictive game and if you haven’t given it a try they have a the trial version available at popcap.com. I think she played around 4-5 hours on that, which was cool with me because I got to watch the final four. But sadly both of the teams I wanted to win lost =/ UCLA and UNC. Oh well I gotta give it up to Memphis and the Jayhawks for playing top notch ball.
Today we headed out to Summerville for the annual Flowertown Festival. It was our first time going there and we were pleasantly surprised at how much stuff there was to do there. We tried our very first kettlecorn, which was great. Apparently it’s a southern snack thing. Then Jojo went on several rides and had a blast. We walked.. then walked.. then walked again. I think the festival was about 5 blocks long and about 2 blocks wide, needless to say it was alot of walking.
After all that walking, we headed home and was just napped. After napping, I watched the movie “Vantage Point” and thought it was a pretty good movie. Nothing spectacular but decent, the only thing I would say I didn’t like about the movie was the ending but overall it was good.
Now it’s time to watch the Lakers play Sacramento. It’s going to be a good game and I hope LA doesn’t take Sac for granted and avenge the loss they had against them at home.
