****Life… Get out of the way…****

It’s been so long since I’ve been here.  I think about this place and you guys quite a bit, But really, who has the time?!?!?!

I don’t know where we left off but here goes….bullets.

 

  • They never recovered Dennis or any evidence of him.
  • I graduated with distinction, which I am very proud of.
  • Stephen started paramedic school………it was finally a good time for us.
  • We went on our cruise…….it was wonderfully amazing.
  • Stephen’s work hours have been cut back tremendously, we’re in financial hell yet AGAIN, but when have we not been.
  • Brooke finished playing t-ball….that was a lot of fun.  In fact I submitted a picture of her holding her trophy to a local news station for "Fan Photo Friday" and it was selected, shown on air, and their facebook cover picture for a bit.
  • Brooke turned 4 (where the heck has time gone??????), we had a WONDERFUL party, complete with a bounce castle/water slide, water balloon fight, swimming, and my uncle breaking his ribs.
  • Saturday is mine and Stephens 5th wedding anniversary……..we’ve come so far and I am sooo thankful we are in such a great place now, much better than 2 and a half years ago.
  • Signing Brooke up for pre k next month, anxious about that, but sad at the same time. 
  • Trying to get Lil Stephen enrolled in a preschool program.
  • Working on shedding pounds again, Ive gained back far too many!
  • Last but not least…..I HAVE A JOB!! I applied for this job (an entry-level MT job-what I just finished school for-entry-level is hard to come by), she originally decided to pass on me because of some minor proof reading issues (which I later found some errors in her training files :-)), but then came back and offered me the job because she had more work than originally expected (or less people applied than originally expected ;-)).  Either way, I am stoked.  Ive only been at it for a week…….Im still new and slow……but its going great and I’ve REALLY impressed her.  Much more than I did on my test run when I applied.

Anyways, I guess that about sums up all the news I have for now.  I am actually supposed to be working right now so I am going to get back to that.

Hope all is well with you guys……..talk to ya soon!!!

Before I go……….my babies…….they are growing toooooo fast!!!

They’re both getting so big! You really made really pretty babies. 🙂 You are sooo thin too! Looks like everything is going great and I’m so happy for you. Congrats on the new job too and for your dad getting better. 😉
