Alleluia!

Hmm. Been a while since I've really done anything on this blog-- or any other things lately, for that matter. It would be great to just post everything up here and save ourselves from individual emails to family and friends. However, time is of essence always on other matters, which put off this blog updating way below our list of priorities. So, please bear with us.

Just to fill in what has been... Since our last entry, hubby and I have been quite busy wih work and pretty much with everything else. The pharmacy I had been working for had been bought over by new owners, but they were happy to have me and the other shop assistant keep our jobs. Yeah, so technically, I'm still working at the same place (now under a sllightly different name), but the transition has kept us with workload up to the neck. A month or so after that, the other assistant left, leaving just me to cover all hours with the pharmacist. Hubby, on the other hand, was inundated with functions of all sorts, and with the holidays coming, was flooded a bit more. By the end of the year, both of us were screaming for holidays, which of course, at the time, was only but a dream.

The new year started with a few job shifting for hubby, which landed him jobs in the city and finally back to where he started. That time, my workplace had eased up a bit with the employment of a second assistant a few months before Christmas. But the pharmacy still wasn't settled as it should be, as the other owners kept rearranging sections every two weeks.

Outside work, hubby and I had our hands full arranging other matters. We looked forward to getting his citizenship and my permanent residency status, going back to school, sitting for a major exam, preparing for a relative's arrival (who'll temporarily stay with us), and getting in our first pieces of lounge furniture. After all that was over, we were about to exhale as the anti-climax became imminent, but it seems we're up for another ride. We found ourselves pregnant.

Ok. I guess, we'll leave it at that. Still catching our breath...
