Friday!

Today is the day....Gabriel is coming home for the first time since he moved to Arkansas to start working. We are very excited but I have to say I have been on edge BIG TIME this week since I haven't seen him in some time and we have issues with the whole finding a house thing. I am so confused about everything. It will all work out and regardless I have to be out of this house by next weekend so I can't just shut down and have a pity party I have to move forward and trust that everything will fall into place like it has been. Jack has lunch day at school today so that's always a big deal around this house. It is so cool to a 4 year old to get to bring that and eat it with his friends. I love his preschool its an excellent place for him to learn and grow and I am so thankful we have been able to end him there. We were having some dinner at Bread Co the other night and he was just yap yap yappin and this table of sweet ladies just couldn't hardly eat because they were so wrapped up in all Jack kept talking about. He is dead set on finding a leprechaun in the next couple weeks and catching it cause his teacher told him if he did he would get a pot of gold. LOL! So he wanted me to get him a net when we were at Walmart the other night that he could carry around with him in case one happens to shoot by lol! I didn't tell him they weren't real...in fact we could use a pot of gold right about now! Shoot a couple pots for that matter since gas is $3.30!!!! Crazy! Have a good day everyone!

Enjoying March 1st!

March is HERE!! Its the moment I have been waiting for....SPRING! Well sort of....they say it may snow Saturday night but the boys and I played outside yesterday afternoon enjoying the almost 60 degree weather we had! I had a lot (and still do) of outdoor things to do to get ready to move. I had flower pots that needed to be cleaned out, toys that needed to be organized and put away....well I could go on and on but again I made progress! Yesterday as I sat there I was looking at everything and we have so much stuff its rather overwhelming. WOW! This is one BIG move! The boys enjoyed helping me and also pulling things out and throwing them all over the yard. We have a little kiddie pool outside that was a huge block of ice that has finally gradually thawed out and they were having fun splashing their hands in it. Jack was calling it swamp water lol! Sadly it does have that look...yes I let my kids play in it and was hoping they didn't fall in cause it was some funky water...but hey who cares! A bath can clean anything. That being said I wonder what we will get accomplished today!

Scrapbooking, Packing, and Missing My Husband

Sorry have not posted in quite some time! I have been very busy and preoccupied with getting things ready to move. I have traveled to Arkansas the past two weekends with this last one being the first we have stayed put. It was much harder than I thought to not see him and some say absence makes the heart grow fonder....for us its really hard not being together and we seem to argue. His sister is not helping the situation doing things a 12 year old would do and trying to make my life more miserable than it already is. Keep in mind shes a 33 year old grown woman. This has been an on again off again relationship that has never really been good. Its a whole lot of giving on our end and they always do the taking. They are very selfish and can only think of themselves in all they do. Who sends your best friend an email totally bashing you. I guess a 33 year old crackhead with nothing else to do. They are very childish in the things they do and have problems with everyone in their life! No matter who it is there is an issue! So long story short my husband hates her, so do I, and they have hurt my kids in the process....I don't care anymore what anyone thinks....I feel what I feel and she dug the hole I am putting her in once and for all. So with this post I bury her and no longer is she going to impact my life. Screw her and her husband! Most of all screw what anyone thinks of me because of how I feel. Someone will put them in their place once and for all one of these days! When someone bites a chunk out of your arm thats a good start! Yep someone bit his arm back around Christmas because they were yet again running their mouths about someone or something! No it isn't the Christian thing to do but you can only take SO much from one person and after 8 years (yes 8) this is over. I will deal with God how I need to with this. Anywho....that being said....my sweet husband is coming to move some things to Arkansas this weekend and we are VERY excited to see him since it will have been a week and a half come Friday since we saw him last. I have also gotten back into my scrapbooking so I have been doing a lot of that trying to catch Jack up on all that I have been behind on. Not even to his 2nd birthday yet so its gonna take me a bit but hey... its progress! Packing up my house is more than I thought it would be and always is. We have sooooo much stuff. But I am making much progress with that as well! My wonderful mom who I love dearly came and helped me Saturday to pack some things and as usual she got right in and got-er-done! Sunday the boys and I went to a restaurant with another bestie of mine Monica and her little boy Patrick. It was Lotawada Creek and boy was it country...lol! That's the only way to describe it. Greasy, large, country food and not my kind of eating I am used to but it was fun hanging out with Monica and talking. I really am blessed with awesome best friends. I have a small army of a few women who stand behind me always and back me through everything. So Travica, Lisa, Monica, Angie....you ladies are so much to me! I hope you all know how special you are and I love you all dearly!
