The Countdown is On...

This time 2 weeks from now, yours truly will be back to the grind(s), literally. I cannot believe how fast the year has gone and the thought of returning to work brings with it many emotions. Although I have missed all "my girls" and my customers, there have been some changes over the last 6 months or so. One person in particular will be missed but she has moved on to other things and we remain the best of friends. I will miss my boys as well, having been able to do whatever and whenever with them has brought me much joy. Evan asked if I had to go back, and as much as I would love to stay home, I have yet figured out a way to get paid for doing that. Any suggestions? For now, I will enjoy my last 2 weeks with my boys and a raod trip with my BFF and return to work with a new attitude...lol

Long Time No See

I just realized a lot of time has gone by since my last post. Guess life has been busy... Boys are good, Evan is doing well and will soon be 8 and Noah took his first steps this week. I have now been off work 11 months and don't want to use the term "dreading" but definitely not super excited a the prospect of returning to work for a lot of reasons. 2010 is off to a start, I have no adjectives at this particular moment that would sum it up properly. First knee surgery is out of the way, second is scheduled for March 1st. One of these days I will elaborate on all that is going on in my little world, but for now, it's dinner time...;)

Growing like a Weed

So my little man is now 15.5 lbs and is 25.5 inches long. Man how the time flies...He can roll both ways and is almost sitting up. With the help of the Bumbo seat, he can see the world from his point of view. I have another 6 months to go if I choose and this time around, I think I will take it. Man I love my kids...:)

My Little Man

Unfortunately my camera does not capture sound, but I think it's cute nonetheless.

BTW....

Kenny completely kicked ASS!!! Although I would have LOVED to have been among the throngs of fans who were lucky enough for floor/front row seats, ours were all in all not that bad. As for Ottawa in general, wtf? I have never seen so many no turn left, no turn right, and one way streets in my life. We got lost every time we left the hotel! On the bright side, we did get to see a lot of Ottawa...I have however decided that Santa needs to bring me a new camera. Every now and then I Go Back...sigh

Waiting...

So here's the deal. I have been alone for 3 years now and even though my kids are top of my list and the joy in my life, it feels like something is missing. I know, I know, good things come to those who wait. But you wanna know a secret? I am terrified of being alone for the rest of my life. I miss having a hand to hold, a shoulder to lean on and arms around me. I have no idea where to meet people, and given my lack of spare time, it seems inevitable that I will be alone. Maybe it is the spare time I have while the kids are visiting grandma and grandpa and I am doing too much thinking, who knows. But if anyone has any nephews, brothers, friends....(in the late-30 to early-40 range...lol) keep in mind a little blue eyed girl. I'm just sayin is all.....

5 More Sleeps

Can you tell I am getting a little excited??
