I got a call from the recruiter at Citrix yesterday, giving me the official job offer. Now I just have to wait on the paperwork and stuff. But I should be starting a new job in a little over a week! Allan's already there-- he started Monday. Should be fun to have lunches together :-)
More randomosity:
Mom's started chemotherapy this week, too. It's really taking its toll. Not too badly, but not that great, either. She can get by on her own but doesn't have enough strength or energy to look after a rambunctious and difficult Toddler. Which means that next week will be Todd's last week of preschool. Such a shame-- I really liked his school, they teach all kinds of good stuff there! They've already started learning basic addition and how to tell time, and most of the kids are only 3-4 years old! But since my mom won't be able to care for him during the day, and since I'll be starting to work again, I have to take him to a preschool/day care in Santa Barbara. I've found one that's reasonably close by, and they seem to have a good program, so fingers crossed that things work out with getting Todd placed there.
Our brief respite of warm weather is over. It's been replaced by cold Santa Anas again, which really sucks. There is nothing I hate worse than cold, dry winds. I'll take constant rain over skin-parching 50mph winds anyday!
Jenna's citrus peel soap gift has really turned me on to aromatherapy. I really needed some yesterday, but I'm down to a tiny sliver. So I'll have to be on the lookout for more next time I'm near one of the Lush stores in LA. In the meantime, I treated myself to a fruity-smelling bath gel from the "bath and body" section of Target :-9
I'm addicted to El Pollo Loco's $1 Loco Nachos. The cheese sauce is incredibly delicious. I blame my husband for this new unhealthful addiction :-P Fortunately, their $1 salads are sinfully tasty as well, and provide a nice, healthy balance ;-)
The little man and I had fun making silly-looking headwear out of towels yesterday. I decided to take some snapshots for posterity, what a giggle!

Time to go brave the winds and do a bit of last-minute shopping before I pick up Todd!
