I'm pleased to say that I am still working at the Controller's Office. I really love my job!! Most of my work is reconciling accounts, mining data for co-workers, and maintaining the Web site, though we're in the process of implementing Banner software application. Therefore, I stay really busy anymore!! We're attending church, Faith UMC, in West Monroe, though we go back to St. Paul's when Ken teaches Sunday School.

Also, I have my hobbies, including karaoke, and beading or jewelry making which I began in October of 2006. I've made some striking pieces, though most of my designs are fairly ordinary in my opinion. I tend to like simple designs utilizing crosses as pendant centerpieces. Although I have sold a few necklace sets, but I don't think I'll give up my day job, LOL!! I also like to fish in our pond once in a while, though I don't like to see them hurt. They get put back in the pond as slightly injured but much smarter fish!!

However, now I'm in horse mode, due to the purchase in March 2008 of a Missouri Fox Trotting Horse. Kajun's Sweet Sugar (Sugar) is now a 5-year-old mare, who I recently got back from the horse trainer's. Ken and I are members of the Louisiana chapter (Web site I recently designed for them) of the national organization, The Missouri Fox Trotting Horse Breeder's Association (MFTHBA) of which I am a member. I'm also involved with the Magnolia Corgi Festival group. I'm also a member of the Cotton Country Open Horse Show Association, based in Ruston. There are at least four horse shows we want to attend this year.

Trying to find time to keep up with all my hobbies, like crocheting, is difficult. Too many hobbies--too little time, LOL!!!!!........
