I only have eight more weeks of School!!  I am excited, but I guess that will be squashed when the student loan payments start.  But for now, YEAH!  All I have to complete is my Senior Seminar which includes a project for an area School district, and a research paper with teaching the subject to the class one night.  And I have a Liturature class to complete.  I still plan to continue in the Master program, but until I move and get settled, that has to wait.  Hopefully this one year wait won’t turn into 20 like the last time I waited a year!

Jennifer and I are going to New York City tomorrow to do a ship inspection on NCL’s ship the Gem.  Should be nice as it is NCL’s newest ship in their fleet.  I will spend the morning touring the ship, then lunch and the afternoon will be spent exploring and taking pictures to show clients.  Should be a nice day.  We might wander around NYC in the afternoon depending on how tired we are.

I plan to sign the papers on Monday to put our house on the market.  Little scary with all that is going on in the economy and with the drastic cuts Volvo has been making.  My area at work is like a ghost town.  I remember as little as four years ago we didn’t have enough space for all the employees.  We have eliminated most of our contractors and now it is so quiet!  At the end of March, we start loosing employees that have chosen not to move with the company, so it will only get worse.
