All four letter words.. lol
Time for an update.. I started back to work last Thursday December 8th, 2011 and made it a full work week. It was tough at first but towards the end of the week I was doing ok. I am glad to have our weekend to try and get as many things done in our new house as possible. I can't wait to start bringing in the money again. I miss my big paychecks. lol Just in time for Christmas... Speaking of Christmas. UGH! I have not bought one thing. Have not decorated one thing, we have no tree. :( I am not sure we are going to get one either. If we do it will be a little bitty Charlie Brown Tree. lol But hey a tree is a tree right? The girls are a little bummed about the Christmas tradition of cutting a tree down but they understand. I have to work on Christmas AGAIN, like the last 4 freaking years. Grrrr I sooo miss having the holidays with my family. We always work around my work schedule but still it sucks. Next week we get to see my Mom and Gma like we do every year .. it is a tradition too it seems. We drive halfway and meet them in Santa Nella and have lunch and exchange gifts, visit and take photos. We enjoy it. :)
We are completely out of our old house and now ready to create memories and traditions in our new home. I can't wait to get the floor finished in the dining room so we can start hanging things on the walls. We still have to finish the dry wall in the living room and the adjacent wall which is Hannah's room. We have Emily and Natalie's room to put carpet in and that is done and we have to dry plaster the laundry room and part of the guest bathroom .. seems like a lot but it really isn't. Then we are slowly going to replace the flooring in the master bathroom to tile planks instead of the ugly carpet it has now. I do not like carpet in bathrooms and never have understood why people put carpet in bathrooms, it is just looking for a mold issue. Eventually the kitchen and dining room will have the flooring replaced too but it doesn't have to be done right away, we can slowly replace them at our convenience. So it is coming along slowly but surely.
The kids are doing great in school still and are loving the new home, they go to their dads every other weekend. But I am not sure if that will change because they have said they do not want to go anymore because of the way he treats them. It gets bad over there and he does things I truly do not agree with .. ugh!! I will not go into detail but I know if you all knew what I know you would not want to allow your children around the neighbors and especially allow them to spend the night with these strangers. I will leave it at that.
So all in all life is going great, We could not be happier in our new home. It is ALOT of work but when is moving NOT alot of work. We doubled our space, this new house is double the size of our old home.
Well until next time I blog.. goodnight!
