Jan/Feb

OK OK here's an update. Very brief and without pics - (sorry I am doing this from work and don't have any pictures on this computer).

J and I enjoyed a lovely Christmas in California with the whole J clan (minus C). We spent lots of time playing and holding O, playing Guitar Hero, eating good food, and generally having a great time!

I have now started my new job (hence the delay in updating). I seriously have been working 12-15 hour days since the first week of January. But I am on some great cases and I suppose it's really good to be busy, especially in this economy.

The house continues to be fab - we have done lots of work on it already - painting, re-plastering the walls and ceiling in the master bedroom, new front door, new cellar door, new bedroom furniture. Lots more work to do, but it will keep J busy on the weekends while I am studying.

Which is why I have not been updating - I am studying to take the California bar exam in July so I will be dual qualified. Yikes! So much to learn in less than 6 months! And so much bureaucracy to get through too with the application process! But I am hoping it will all be worth it in the end just like law school here.

The panto in January also went really well. Check out the photos on facebook (especially the fantastic Mother Goose costume!)

So that's a brief update on the J & K front.

We are off to NYC for J's 30th birthday this weekend. And then I am going to California/Utah/Idaho the first week of March to see the family before my exam on 7 March.

I promise to update (with pics!) when I am back.
