So tired

So I haven't updated this blog in FOREVER. I just wanted to assure all two of my readers that I have not forgotten, and I will start to post here again soon.

Quick thing: money sucks. This economy is no good for a husband who is out looking for a job. :( My MIL seems to think I should leave my child in the care of others to seek employment... Le Sigh. I wish she would just let us make that decision ourselves. :(

We did have a good day at the zoo today though.

Tuesday: Alton was born on a Tuesday

I could not sleep last night. I was finally ready to go to sleep around 3:55 this morning. I haven't had any coffee today and since it is currently 12:13 I won't be having any at all.

I finished the job application this morning. I am leaving it all in God's hands because I know it's not up to me of I get the job, not to mention trying to figure out child care for Alton. I am leaving it all up to God. If He means for me to have this job, He will find a way for me to find cheap = free child care. Wish me luck!

Afloat

I have decided I am not going to stress about punctuation or capitalization on this blog. I will be a stickler for spelling though, because that is important, well that and the Fire Fox browser I am using underlines in red my spelling mistakes. I don't want a bunch of red lines following me through the blogosphere, so I will correct the red lines. Whoops, there's one now. apparently blogosphere is not a real word. I will also start an abnormally large number of my sentences with I. I have done that since the second grade, and I got called out on it then, and I refuse to change my ways now.

things are weird right now. I feel cut-off from things and life. I feel like I am in a temporary holding pattern and that something big is going to happen. Not sure what though. I am thinking about selling a bunch of stuff on E-bay, getting a job, doing something different, but I don't know what. I think having pneumonia and trying to not drive anywhere if I can help it to save gas money has something to do with it.

tuesday I have to do a target secret shop and take Travis's razor back to Costco. Wednesday I am thinking about making Strawberry pizza for home group. thursday we are going to Disneyland with John and Maggie and the kids. Friday is clear. Saturday we are going to Goofy's kitchen to celebrate Penelope's first birthday like we did Alton's.

I am thinking about applying to work at my church. The application itself is overwhelming me. Is that a bad sign?

The All important first post

wow! You found it. I didn't know anyone would look for it, but here you are!

So I already have a blog I can't keep up with, so why you ask did I feel the need to start a second one?

Sometimes mommies have dark thoughts that don't match the tone of the sunny smiley photo blogs that we show off to our friends and neighbors. Sometimes we want to write stuff that has nothing to do with parenting. Sometimes we want to write something about ourselves.
