This and That

I had a great time with Jess at Kangaroo Jakes yesterday!!! That place is awesome and the kids had a great time and Jess and I got to chill while they played. I loved it and we will definitely be going back soon!

Do you have a song that when you hear it you are instantly transported back in time? I have a few and one of them brings back really bad memories but for some crazy reason I can't bring myself to not listen to it when it comes on the radio. I don't seek the song out but when I happen upon it something forces me to listen to the whole thing....very weird!!!

I know I post a lot of negative things about Jamey on this blog but truly you guys...I have a wonderful husband! He is a great provider, hard worker at work and at home (He is a very active fun daddy, he does 95% of the laundry, our yard is always immaculate, our vehicles are always clean, everything in our house is always in working order, he gladly grills all spring and summer, he enjoys helping neighbors when he can, he is home every night with his family, and the list goes on and on!!!! I love him and am very happy he married me out of all the girls in the world!

I STILL have not heard from the job!!! I broke down and e-mailed the HR director to see if the position has been filled. I sent the e-mail a few minutes ago and we will see!!! (With my luck she is off today or something and I still won't find out.) The hiring process in the school system takes a little longer than a private company but I am out of patience!!!! I am dying here! I e-mailed her because I really don't want to wonder all weekend!!!! I am trying to stay positive but with every day that passes I get more of a feeling that I have not been selected. If not I just want to know so that I can move my efforts elsewhere. I will be disappointed but not devastated.

Potty training drags on and on and on!!!!! I think Sam's moods are a lot like mine...some days he cares....other days he could care less!!! :-) Today is a "could care less" day for him. Little stinker!!!!

When and if I do get a job I am probably going to have to go to Facebook Addiction Anonymous!!! It is going to be hard for me to kick the habit but I can do it! I will also have to give up The Young and the Restless as well!!! Grrrrr.......

I am really worried about Riley being in school 5 days each week! She is so moody and is such a homebody. Dear Lord, please let her adjust well. For her state of mind and mine! Amen.

I slept really great last night. I don't think I moved at all and I really needed it. I have been so restless lately and I have had to force myself to drag through the day every day.

I am really bummed that our "Sweet Summertime" is coming to an end. My kids and I have kind of lived in a little cocoon for the past few months and I know that I have to go back to work and I know Riley has to go to school but it has been really nice to be able to enjoy my children the way I have. There are so many moms out there that are never given the gift I was given. Most moms only get their weekends and their 2 weeks of vacation (if that) each year with their children and most of that "vacation" is to be home with sick children not happy, smiling, playing children. I will remember this summer forever and will look back at the pictures and know that we had a really great time...even when we just hung out at home most of the time! I love my children so much and am so blessed to have them in my life!

I hope everyone has a great day and enjoys some simple pleasures! Even if you don't feel like it...smile at someone...they will smile back and you will feel better!
