Life!!!

Okay so I still don't have any pictures of Rachele in her uniform. She is loving school but hating mornings. She is just like me...no matter how early she gets to bed morning comes to fast. Her teacher seems to like her and enjoys teaching so I'm excited for that. Once Rachele gets to school she loves being there but getting her to school is a pain...I said it once already but she is just like me.

Lee has finally been to all of his classes. He is very unsure of his schedule. I told him he will be fine like every other semester but he will still stress until the end gets here. He goes to school Monday thru Thursday. He does like the time away even if he is stressing out.

Kenny is loving daycare. He goes Monday thru Thursday for six hours a day. I love it because I can sleep with out having to worry if I'm getting enough sleep or what he is getting into while I sleep. The lady that watches him is a mother of four and she really enjoys having him come over. She even thinks he might be ready to potty train....yikes! He has been waking up dry and going on the potty first thing in the morning so she might be right. But I don't want my baby to be ready for that....he's not even two yet.

I have been offered and accepted a full time position at the hospital I have been working at for the past six months. Which means we can finally get off state aide. YEA!! Not that it's bad to get help when you need it but it's nice to do for yourself. School has finally paid off for me. Since going to nights I do seem to sleep all the time. Any quite moment is sleep time for me. Although I did manage to pull myself out of bed at a decent time today...only working four hours last night helped.

We have the house pretty much set the way we want it. However when we got that bad rain storm the basement flooded and the rental people have yet to do anything about it. But for now everything is good. We moved all the items of wood to higher ground in the basement...you have to love older houses. One of these days I'll take some pictures and give you all a tour. The nice thing is we don't have a TV in the living room and the kids TV is in the toy room. We did this for our sanity. We have a quite zone in the house ...YEA!!

1:30 in the morning!!!

Here it is 1:30 in the morning and I'm blogging. What is wrong with me? I just needed something to do to stay awake a work. I have made the switch to midnights....loads of fun. I actually like it. Of course it is a little hard to sleep in the daytime but I'll get the hang of it soon I'm sure. I hope everyone else is sleeping.

When I left the house to go to work both kids were asleep and Lee was about to fall asleep also. He did get up to help move the cars around so I could drive my van and not my dads. We are borrowing my dads van because Lee's truck is in the shop...needs a new transmission. OUCH!! But all is well. I only have six more hours to go until I can head home and go to sleep.

Books that have shaped me...

Well after much thought here they are...
1. Sweet Valley Twins
2. Babysitters Club
3. I love "who done its" so when I was in elementary Encyclapedia Brown---did not spell that right.
4. I love Edgar Allen Poe stories and poems
5. I LOVE Fox in Socks---really almost all Dr. Suess books.
6. Amelia Bedillia...My sister hated reading these books to me.
7. Little Women although I don't remember reading it myself I think it was one that was read to me.
8. Secret Garden
9. Any ghost story
10. Tikki tikki tempo
11. The Wrinkle in time books
12. The diary of Anne Frank
13. My brother Sam is dead....as bad as the title sounds it about the civil war.
14. Okay I think thats it.

I really didn't think I read that much but I guess I did. Oh I just remebered a book but not the name...it sparked my interest in family history/geneology.

Rachele's first week of school!!!

Okay call me a bad mom...I have no pictures. Let me just say she does look so cute in her white polo and navy bottoms, whether it be capri's, skirt, or her jumper. Next week I'll try to get a photo of the before school look because after school her white polo is no longer white. So glad walmart carries the stain resistant shirts. Anyways she is loving it. I was shocked that the first day was a full day, even more so when all the other schools had half days. But it made it nice not to have to fight with the high school by her school. Hope all is well.

Boards

I passed my first set of board exams. Only two more to go. I'll keep you all posted on the other two...its going to be a little while though. I have to build up the money to pay for them.

Just checking in!!!

Hi all, well I still don't have internet at my house....I'm borrowing the neighbor's wifi...is that wrong? Anyway, things have been good. Rachele starts school on the second of September. Silly me scheduled myself for a 12 hour shift so Lee will have to be the mommy and daddy on that day. Kenny had developed quite the allergy to miquito's (did I spell that right?). We had a night time run to the ER because we thought his eye was going to swell shut. Benedryl works wonders. I have been headache free for five days. I was put on steroids for 12 days and it seems to have helped. I'm positive the blessing and all my prayers have helped too. We will see how things are when the steroid is gone. Lee starts threapy on wednesday for his knee. We still don't know whats wrong with it but he gets a MRI on the 27th so maybe that will give us some answers. Our new president called us from the new branch we are in to touch base and say hey we got your paperwork where are you? We are two presithood holders away from being a ward. How exciting?? It was three but with us moving in we are down to two. Anyways, I did get undates on everyones blogs but I did not comment.....sorry. I did enjoy every post I read. Hopefully I'll have internet soon so I won't have to borrow, so then I can comment and not feel bad for using someone else's internet.

Out of The Loop!!

Hey all, I have been so busy. I'm sorry I haven't commented anyone. I have had sometime to read your posts. I have not been as busy as Lee. He has moved almost everything (with help) and unpacked most of everything in the house that's been unpacked. I still have my headache and I'm fighting through it most days. All my tests have come back negative so thats good...I'll just have to suffer with migrains. See you on the blog.
