General Update

 

Niice! Email blogging is cool. To anyone who walks by my office right now, it totally looks like I’m diligently working away here.

 

This might be totally random. I will try to stay on track and not ramble too much.

 

  1. My sister is getting so close to delivering her baby. She only has 6 weeks left until her due date!! It is so exciting, I can barely stand it. She sent me a picture of the babe from her last ultrasound but I just figured out how to blog from my email, don’t expect pictures ever again! Did I tell you she was having a girl? Yep and I know the name! But it’s a secret so I cant tell. I will proudly announce all the statistics when that sweet little girl decides to make her entrance.

 

  1. Work is starting to wear on me. At first I thought the whole 4 day work week thing was cool but now I see that it aint all that its cracked up to be. My typical work day looks a little something like this. Alarm goes off at 4 am. I hit snooze at least once. Coffee, shower, dress, hair, makeup by 5. Kids up, breakfast, dressed, lunches/snacks packed, backpacks on, and all our collective crap together to be ready to walk out the door no later than 6 am.  Drop the kids off at daycare and get on the road to be to work by 7. Work till 5:30 get to parents house (they get the kids after school –daycare is closed by the time I get home) pick up the kids and am walking back in the door of my house around 6:30. An hour and a half to do dinner, homework, baths, load of laundry, and prepare for the next day and put the kids in bed at 8. I don’t go to bed much later than they do, you know, cause I’m up at 4. So even though I have three day weekends every week, I still feel like I have less time because I get NOTHING done on the days I work. And the weekends are a scramble to catch up. Look at that schedule, do you see anywhere I can fit in a trip to the grocery store?  The job itself is pretty cool. I really like it for the most part. I would totally go into more about this place and the people here but they all know how to google. I’m not that naïve or stupid.

 

  1. Brian is moving out. We are “taking a break” And no, it is nothing like the “We were on a break!” storyline on Friends. We aren’t breaking up, we aren’t seeing other people, and we aren’t even angry or upset with each other. We have just come to a crossroads and we need some time apart to make sure we are going in the right direction. It sucks. I’m really going to miss him. But I’ve got a pretty good feeling about the whole thing. I really do think it is going to be a great thing for us. I’m sure you will be hearing a lot more on this subject in the coming months. He will be gone from May-September. He’s going to Alaska of all places. Might as well be going to China. Seems like a world away.

 

 

OK. That is plenty of updating for now.  Its been a while, so I will have to update in batches.  Thanks for reading, you get a gold star for making it this far.

 

Testing

I haven’t been able to get onto blogger from my home computer. I have no idea why. I can view my blog, but when I go to open blogger to post or edit, my damn PC freezes up and I cant get nowhere. I really didn’t want to risk blogging from work, but I snuck on yesterday and set it up so I can blog from my email!! I am quite proud of myself that I figured out how to do this. Now I really just hope it works! If it does,  I will be back to update. Its been too long.
