Single Mom

For those of you who don't know anything about accountants, right now there is a big tax deadline September 15th. This means Jeff works all the time. Chloe only gets to see Jeff if he accidentally sleeps in. Last night he didn't get home until 11:15 pm. Since Chloe goes to bed at 7:00 pm, I decided I needed to come up with something more productive than watching pointless tv all night long. So I've taken up indexing. Indexing is where you download copies of different records (like censuses, war draft cards, etc.) and take important information from those documents and put them in the computer so people can search for their ancestors and have this information pop up. It is super easy! Last night, while I was watching/listening to Sweet Home Alabama and The Count of Monte Cristo, I indexed 420 names. Not bad for a first timer. Doing this helps me feel like I do more than teach Chloe her ABC's. Anyway, that's how I spend my time while Jeff is counting beans well into the night. On a lighter note, we are having family pictures tomorrow with my family and I am so excited. I can't remember the last time we had professional family portraits taken. It's only because there are grandchildren now! I will post some of those soon. While you wait, enjoy pictures of Chloe in a tutu!
