August 12 Back again Wow i guess i don't keep up on this very well huh? Acually this time my excuse is we turned off the internet and the cable for the
summer, figured it was a good way to keep the kids from sitting in the house all the time doing nothing but buggin me. Worked out
better then we planned as Erick and I didn't sit around the house much either, but since school starts here again the 22nd and the girl
is going to be in jr high too, it was time to turn things on again.
We've had a pretty great summer, took a week long trip back to MN to see the family, Erick and I stayed at my parents while the kids stayed out at his moms, DOUBLE VACATION!! for us
 it was a 16 hour drive there and back but we managed it with NO car trouble, 2 kids and a dog, quite a few pit stops but a very good trip. The kids have been spending most of the summer at the pool (bought them pool passes this year- best investment i've made) And as mentioned we now have added a puppy to our growing zoo of 4 cats, 1 hamster and fish, she is a Treeing Tennessee Brindle, we named her Whiskey (why you might ask ) because 1 shes from Tennessee and so is Jack Danials Whiskey (Ericks faverite) and 2 her coloring is that of whiskey kegs.
Well that's all for now, bye July 13 PathsI always tell people that all the things you've done make you who you are today, that going back and erasing or omitting just one thing would change who you are... but right now it's really hard to take my own advice. as i sit here thinking, i can think of several things i would love to erase from my past .. and i play the "if only" game. i don't believe that the things i would change would necessisarily make me a better person, but i do think that at this moment in time it would make me a happier person.
wouldn't it be nice if everytime you came to a fork in the road you could see just what might happen on that road so it would be easier to choose which direction you wanted to go ..instead of looking back and saying "why the fuck did i do this?"
Paths
the path i take today
will judge who i am tomorrow
did i make the right choice
or will i wake to find regret
would knowing be better
would knowing be worse
will knowing make a difference
or will i still do stupid things
i know i'm only human
and life is ment to live
but why must it be hard
why should i have to question
why should we look back
and wonder why we did this or that
crystal ball, life instrustions
where are you when i need the answers
June 27 It's Me Againok it's been a while since i wrote anything, guess it's time again, last i told you all we were moving, well we did... living in Ohio now, it's pretty good, and i haven't been hit with homesickness yet (surprise i know) but i think alot of that has to do with being able to look around and not feel like i'm 13 hours from home. Ohio, at least where we are looks alot like Minnesota.
Erick got a good job, prolly not his dream job but he's getting raises and is now making more in a week then he used to in 2 weeks back in MN, so that's a SUPER plus, with buying the house and all. and it's cool...he's working 4-10 hour days so he's home with us 3 days a week which i personally REALLY like, and he's working nights instead of overnights
 it's so much better having a husband i get to sleep with every night again  Now we are trying to figure out how to get the kids back home with the grandparents for a bit this summer, i think it might be a meet her half way and drop them off so we'll see i guess, i know they miss being able to see her every weekend like they used to .. but i'm thinking she's saving a lot of money not having to take them places and buy them things all the time and maybe they will learn to appreciate her for her and not the things she buys them.
ok i think that's enough for now. no one wants to read a book on me anyway soo.... have a great day! February 23 wow time flies and my nic didn'tOK....... well we are leaving here sometime on the 27th headed for Ohio. still think it's gonna be interesting traveling with 5 cats and 2 kids but it will be worth it when i show up on Bekka's doorstep. ya know what... i have been pretty cool thru this whole house buying ordeal .... only real freak out for me was finding out we were gonna get the loan...... but damn now that we are down to the wire..i think i'm starting to get just a weeeeee bit nervous... oh i know i'll be fine once we close on the house and have the keys .. but damn the last few days have been stressful, even with all the work left to do around here, unfortunately that just gives me more time to think and worry cause we still have sooooo much to do. chances are this will be my last entry until we are all situated and set up in ohio
oh yes... and just to go off on my lil tangent for the blog...... WTF did msn do to my nickname????? not only did they give me one i've only used like 3 times...... they wont' let me change it back????? .. they keep telling me that page is unavailable WTF if its soooo unavailable... then how did THEY change it?? February 06 22daysyep that's right.... in 22 days i will no longer be a minnesotan .. packing is going well i guess.. i look around the house and see all that still needs to be done but it's comming together... got part of our taxes back so we've been paying things off and getting everything else ready, looks like we are gonna be moving ourselves 3 grand to move us ..i think NOT .. not when we can do it ourselves for around a grand ..and not have to worry about how we are gonna find space for the cats, so i think in the long run .. doing this ourselves is gonna be the best way. January 30 Joining the darksideOk, here i sit, knowing i have to do it ... trying to not to complain to much, but hey i'm a redhead .. so i can bitch with the best of them lol. Like so many of you i'm buckling under to peer pressure (and i hate having a blah profile) so heres the start of mine, if you like it cool.. if not ..oh well i'm not really here for your amusement anyway  |
