Busy days....

I've been meaning to write a blog but things have been busy; as always! I don't think I'd know what to do with myself if life wasn't so busy. Between delivering papers, taking Ashley to school in the mornings, then working full time (Tues-Friday), Ashley going to tutoring 3 nights a week; which I just cut back the hours to 4:30-6:00 instead of 6:30, going home, fixing dinner, doing homework, and eventually getting to bed, only to get up around 2:00 a.m to start it all over again! *SIGHS* And spring soccer is supposed to be starting up next week! WOOHOO! Bring on more madness! :0)

We had our first major snow on Sunday! It was great, we got about 6 inches. It was so beautiful every where you looked. It stuck to everything and stayed there until last night. Ashley had no school yesterday or today; I'm sure they will be out tomorrow as well. The side roads are still pretty bad and tomorrow is the first day it's supposed to get above freezing. I had fun delivering in the snow! Last night wasn't all that fun though. I got stuck twice but managed to break free; I'm sure tonight will be just the same unless VDOT did more work in the neighborhoods, which I doubt. Ok- quick update; no school for Miss Priss tomorrow! I wanna stay home and play all day too! Not fair! LOL!

Andrew and I are TTC! I haven't told that many people. I did tell my mom though. We were going to wait until it happened but I can't keep things from her; I was dying to tell her. Last month was a no go, but we'll keep trying. I have to say though if I have another M/C, we will probably stop trying. I had just gotten used to the idea of having a baby and within a week and a half it was taken away. It sucked so bad; and it still hurts at times, especially as what should have been my due date gets closer. I would have been due in about another month. But as they say, everything happens for a reason; even though at the time we don't understand it.

You know, Andrew and I don't argue or have any type of spats normally. However, when we do it's usually because of his mother. There are major issues when it comes to her; and I try so hard to keep it to myself; but then again it's me we are talking about too! Her world revolves around Gavin; always has to see him whenever Andrew has him. I never see Andrew or Gavin on Tuesday nights (visitation night) because they to go Grandma Bennett's house. Which is whatever, Ashley and I usually do our own thing and plus soccer practice is going to be on Tuesday nights. What makes me so upset is that Gavin does no wrong, Andrew isn't treated the way he should be by her and I stole her boys from her. She doesn't like that or me. I wouldn't mind having some type of relationship with her but we are COMPLETE OPPOSITES of each other. She doesn't spend holidays with us, because she runs off to WVA to be with her side of the family (yeah, how is that for an ego thumper?) Her side of the family has come to VA once and that was for our wedding and most of them took off to early. It was like Cinderella and going to the ball, and only having until the clock stuck midnight, only their time was noon. But we are expected to run out there all the time; hello! I work 7 days a week now, and right now it's way to cold to spend anytime outside, so that leaves us stuck in the house. Oh the joy fullness in that! And you know we can't go without her.

On to better things! We adopted a kitty! She was a rescue from the animal shelter. Ashley keeps changing her name, I call either Kitty Kitty or Pretty Kitty. Talk about a loving cat! She is just too cute; she's all black with yellow eyes and she's going to be a big girl. She is huge now and she's only 8 months old. The only thing that sucks is that she'll be an outside cat. We have her in the garage right now since it's so cold and snowy. I'd have her in the house in a heart beat if Andrew wasn't allergic to her. Andrew only agreed to let us have a cat so she can get all the mice running around outside. They did over $400 worth of damage to the electrical in the Hemi, he has found them in his car and I had one in my trunk. Ashley and I love her though. We actually do spend a lot of time out there with her. She's just too sweet! I can't wait for it to get warmer so I can sit on the porch with her and love on her.

I'm still waiting to give my notice at work (full-time position) it's all most like I have short timers all ready! LOL! One of the only things keeping me here is Terri, I'm really close to her and I will miss her so very much. I haven't told her of my plans though, she'll be so upset and she's all ready over worked and over stressed. By the end of May I'll be out of here, if not sooner! But I will at least give them a 30 day notice so if they do hire someone else, it will give me time to train them on at least some of my stuff. Of course they may take my load and split it up between all the girls; which I don't know how they will manage. I'm looking forward to spending the summer with Ashley, playing in the yard, swimming and hopefully growing a baby in my belly! :0)

I need to get a hold of Alicia and figure out how to make my blog pretty! I need to add stuff to it, pictures and such. I'll try to play with it more tonight!

Love & Hugs~
