J is for . . .

J is for JOHN, JOHNNY, JEFFREY, JASON, JEREMY, JENNIFER, JULIA, JAMIE, JAROM, JAZLYN, JENNA, JOANNE, JESSICA, JACKSON, JORDAN, JOSHUA, JACQUELINE, JAMES, JOSETTE, JAIDYN . . .did I miss anyone? So many J names in our families. Love you guys! J is for JACUZZI. John as been wanting one for years, and we were fortunate enough to find a guy who wanted to trade one for a jeep. As luck would have it, we were going to sell Skyler's, so it was perfect timing. It has all the bells and whistles . . . stereo/CD player, volcano, waterfall, extra jets . . .the works. Problem is, we NEVER use it. I think my husband thinks its the ultimate in status symbols . . .I on the other hand am ready for it to find a new home. I think a new roof for the house, or a remodeled basement would bring us FAR more JOY.
Speaking of JOY, having Skyler home from his mission, and getting to see my grandkids brought me oodles of that. We spent hours listening to his many adventures, and in doing crafts and puzzles with the girls. J is for JOB.
We are both pretty darn lucky in the current economy to both have one. John is managing three projects right now for ABCO, and besides my 16 years delivering for the Spokesman Review, I think I found the perfect day job as well! More on that later, as I have to train for it first. Anyways, wish me luck on this new adventure!
