Lately, I don't feel there is anything of consequence in my life to write about. Well not that anyone would care to hear anyway. It would all be whining and complaining and I mostly keep that to myself. Nobody likes a whiner. lol

A few things of interest, I suppose. One, my husband quit drinking. He realized how much money he spent on alcohol and was shocked so he said no more of that. And gee, oddly enough he has felt so much better physically since he quit. Imagine that.
Two, we are back to a 2 vehicle family. No more driving him to and from work, no more relying on his mom to help us out there. I love my mother-in-law, and really hated having to ask for help, but she was so great about it and never once complained! She rocks!

We're still not pregnant, though my cousin-in-law gave me a fertility monitor to use to help determine when I ovulate. And well she has 3 kids so I'm thinking it works. Thanks JP!!

Now if I can just get back in the habit of going to the gym 3 times a week, maybe I'll have more energy. Since I've been back to work I come home completely exhausted. Probably because I did a lot of sitting around for 10 weeks prior to that. And of course I have to be at work at 8, so I'm up at 630, which I despise. But it's all for the mighty dollar. We need a lot more coming in to get totally caught up so I'm doing my part, going to work every day, pushing through even though I'm not totally crazy about the place I work. That goes under the whining and complaining category so we just won't go there. :)

Okay to cheer myself up, and whoever may be reading this, I'm gonna name 3 things I love about my life....

1) the man I married...without him I am truly afraid I would not be here....he is my partner in crime, my rock, my best friend...love you babe!!

2) my family...blood-related, married into, people I'm so close to they might as well be family--I am truly blessed to have a family that loves and supports me so very much. Whenever I hear about people that don't have a close relationship with their family it makes me sad cause I think everyone needs that....also makes me feel so lucky to have such close relationships with mine. :)

3) my dog...I know, corny right? But I tell you what, even on the gloomiest of days, when all I've heard is babies crying, or teachers yelling, or the pounding in my own head I know I can always come home and he will be right there so very excited to see me. And without fail, it always makes me smile.

Lord, for these things I am truly grateful and feel very blessed. Thank you, amen.
