And so it goes…

Life has been spinning past at an amazing pace that before I know it; it’s 5 months after my last post.  Being a working mom will do that to you, though I often feel as if something is missing when I don’t check in and spill my guts out for all the world to see.

So, instead of posting some majorly intricate post on what’s happened since the last post, I will tell you some of the highlights:

  • We survived Christmas, mostly unscathed. In addition to a bunch of fantastic gifts, we were given a stomach virus which held on tight just long enough to ruin any plans for a fun New Year’s Eve. By New Year’s Day, everyone was feeling well enough that my bff and I were able to go out and see Twilight.
  • David and I both purchased some new laptops, which I’m hoping will aid in more blogging. However…
  • We also bought a puppy which is proving to be not entirely unlike having a baby, what with the early morning feedings and constant need to make sure she is dry and happy. Her name is Gracie Mae and she’s gorgeous! Pictures to follow.
  • Alexa is a superstar in school. Her handwriting has transformed from something that looked like Sandscrit to something that resembles a first grader. Her grades are amazing and she’s seen drastic improvements in almost all areas from Quarter 1 to Quarter 2. She’s amazing!
  • I lost my tax refund. Really. Well, a portion of it and now I’m in the whole search and recovery mode. Sucks cause I was going to do this week’s food shop with it. There has been a whole lot of ramen andwater going on over here.
  • Saturday is Valentine’s Day. The kids have a birthday party and then I’m not sure what David and I are going to do. I’m hoping some nice family member offers to watch the kids and the puppy so that David and I can out to dinner.

And that’s about all. I’m hoping that with the aid of a nice, new laptop that I can get more writing accomplished. If not, it was nice seeing you again. See you in another six months!
