So things have been a little hectic the past few days. I started working part time as a TOEIC and TOEFL speaking test rater (from home over the internet).

The hours are great because they are normal hours, Eastern standard time. That means I can work a 4 hour shift from here in Oregon and be done by 9:30 am.

However, that does mean Naoto's going to have to step up and do child duty plus bento making in the morning.

Anyway. That's how it goes. The money is going to come in handy as we begin fall and I am paying for both girls' Japanese school. Ouch!
