She said YES!

Well, I asked Karen to marry me on Valentines Day and her answer was yes. I have been telling anyone and everyone that my goal was to get her to marry me and now I'm a happy guy! I think I have called just about everyone in my family and told them but if I missed anyone and they find out about it through this or the grapevine, I'm sorry. We haven't decided on when just yet, but the first step was to make the decision and that's done.

I've been doing the happy dance all week, but then I needed to do that to stay warm too since we are still locked in winter up here. It was 4° this morning and the high for today was around 30° but the sun has been out all day, and it looks pretty out there. Fortunately for me my boss gave me the day off today so I don't have to work again till Tuesday. The tax business is a little slow in our office right now so I've had a break from doing tax returns for a few days now. This time of year the folks coming in have a little more complex tax situations and they take a little more time and maybe even someone with a higher certification than me, so I have to be careful about which ones I start getting into. But for now, I'm off for the next few days and I'm enjoying that.

My computer wouldn't start a couple of days ago and I think I have it narrowed down to the power supply so I bought another one but it won't be here till Monday. The other thing it could have been was the motherboard and that would have been a major overhaul so I'm glad I only have to change out the power supply. One way or the other I'll have it up and running as soon as the part gets here.

So, for better or for worse... could be in the marriage vows, ya think?
