With JaNae being mostly M.I.A., she has asked me, her personal assisstant ie: right hand (wo) man to update her blog for her (never mind that I have been nagging her about it too).
Sooo, in a nutshell, here it is:
JaNae is now a student in addition to working full-time nights at the hospital. She is in an avionics program. That means she's learning to repair instrument panels for helicopters and airplanes. The plan is that when she's finished, she wants to work on the flight simulators on Fort Rucker. To quote her: "it's an inside job with air conditioning and no one dies if you screw up".
Her schedule is weekdays, work all night, go home and nap for about 45 minutes. (meanwhile, Amry gets up, gets Brice and Cian up and makes sure they have breakfast and pack a snack for school) Then JaNae gets up, fixes Cian's lunch and sees them off when Jim or Miles pick them up for school--Cian goes to school with Grandma Parker). On Mondays and Wednesdays JaNae goes back to sleep until 2:45. Then she's up again, picks A & B up from school(most days) drops them off at Mom and Dad's, then drives the 25 minutes to Ozark for classes til 6:30 or 7:00 pm. On Tuesday and Thursdays, instead of going back to sleep after the kids are gone to school...she has a speech class (Tues & Thurs) at 7:30 a.m. til 9:00. and THEN, afterwards, gets some sleep.
The kids stay at Grandma and Grandpa Parker's until Jeremy picks them up about 6 p.m.
JaNae mentioned that she couldn't do it without the support of family members. In fact, Jeremy is the homework checker/form signer now and has broadened his repetoire of menu items. He has even perfected heat and serve!
In other news, their chihuahua, Bella, had a litter of three male puppies on the 8th of Oct. They are just the cutest little guys! Their eyes are open now and they are starting to really crawl around. Bella is a good momma too. Temporarily they're named Carmello, Twix, and Oh Henry (yes, chocolate bars)
There's your Thomas family news update.
Hopefully when we return we'll have grades to report....or not.
