An interesting week ....

It has been an interesting week - busy - but interesting.

So first off I am now officially a US Citizen. I took my oath on Tuesday which was sort of a surprise since I was under the believe that there would be a lag between the interview and the oath. So now I have a couple of small things to finalize - getting a US Passport and then making sure Social Security know that I am a citizen now but outside of that - done. Of course that also means the girls are citizens - and now I just need to figure out when to go through the process of getting them their passports.

Work-wise the week has been busy. A couple of very long days with conferences and meetings. A couple of nights out with friends celebrating (mild celebrations) the citizenship did not help. It was nice to be able to relax last night and I plan on making this weekend a relaxing one. I have not even had a chance to exercise much so I need to get back into that swing of things.

I did get to finish a new book this week - Kite Runner. A GREAT book. Parts of it were hard to read - brought up some personal memories but I guess that made it even a better book if it can touch you in that way. I would like to thank Blanche for loaning me her copy to read :-)

A friend of mine also had a birthday this week - she turned two yesterday. The picture is when she was little - 4 months old. She has grown a bit since then but not much. So a big HAPPY BIRTHDAY FRANKIE :-)

I hope everyone has a great weekend
