New Beginning

Well this is our last day in this house, hopefully. We don't know if we have a truck yet and I have to be to work at 2pm and Steve has to be at work at 8 pm and Joe has to be at work at 6 pm. It is now a little after 7am. I am going back to bed for half and hour and then up to pack the kitchen, bathrooms, pantry and all the linen closet. Oh yeah, my half of the room, Steve only did his side yesterday. He didn't get to much done, that is for sure.

Well instead of complaining and get a few zzzz's.

When one thing don't work out another always does.

Well the place I wanted wasn't on the same time frame as me. They wanted to wait until next week to approve me. I wanted to move out this weekend. We all work at night and will have to move during the day and try and sleep. It will be crazy for awhile, good thing I do crazy well!

My son, who just moved out here, started his job tonight. His g/f and her 6 year old boy and 5 month old girl will be here Tues. So now they need to get a place of their own. But things are going smoothly so I am quite happy.

I wish Lori was here to help us by givng us directions and keeping us organized but maybe she can phone it in! I miss my mom right now and even want to see her new dodge truck, even though she bought it knowing I hate dodge and she thought I would never talk to her again. Mom, does this mean you love your truck more than you love me? I am kidding I hope you and your truck are just as happy as me and my truck were. Oh I miss my truck, even if I don't need a truck for every day it would sure come in handy right now with moving. Oh well, better appreciate the Honda Accord since that's what I drive now.

Trying patience......

well not by choice but we have o choice in the matter. Found what I believe to be the perfect place, enough space, rooms, garage, and much cheaper rent and utility bills. Plus it is in Henderson. Just a jump on the freeway to work. Although I will miss the 12 min drive to work. Now it will be more like 30 but I can deal. Now if I just would hear back from the owner. Filled out the application last night. Woke at 6 this morning with this on my mind. Weird waking up when I am usually getting off work around this time.

Life is really good at the moment. Sure it has it's draw backs but overall it is really good. I am happy at work and like my new position. Still new enough ad will be for a long time that I will get to use my brain and learn something new every day or so.

Having Joe here isn't so bad. I am enjoying being with the boy again. He is a little whiny but then, would he be Joe if he didn't whine? He is very helpful around the house. He went grocery shopping with me yesterday and was a big help. He is the only one of my kids that don't ask for stuff at the store. I ask him if he wants anything and he always said no.

If this house doesn't turn out I do have a back up but we can't move in right away. I would have to wait until the 1st of the month. I don't love it as much as the one I want now. But it is everything I wanted and need, if a little small.

I feel kinda guilty that life is going this well. My grandmother just died and she was just burried on Sat. and my mother-in-law died last month but I decided that neither would want me to grieve, all though Carol would insist that I miss her, and believe me I do, besides they are both back with those they lost before them, children, parents, and their husbands. I think they may have the best of it and we are just very selfish in not wanting to let them go.

Pray I get this house please and that he lets me know this morning which way it goes. I am praying everyone has a great and wonderful day full of exciment of life and wonder at how it all comes about the way it is suppose to.

today is a day to recharge

I got to go back to my home office last night. Was really happy to be back and weird all at the same time. It had been almost 15 days. My boss let me go back to dispatch last night and I was busy and loving it and Tops went down. It was down from 2 am to 7:30 when I left. I was suppose to work overtime but it got taken away. Easy come easy go I guess. I don't know why but I am taking full advantage and sleeping. Alreay had 3 short naps, now time for a longer one.

UPdate about moving: Wish I had something postive to report but I don't. Seen 2 places we would love but they are $200 more a month and we were doing this to save money but the places that are less just aren't that safe. No garages. Old homes.
Can I just say that I love my job, faults and all. I love what I do and I am really good at it. So thank you for that Lord!
