Testing...

There seems to be a slight problem with the blog so I'm just doing a test post to see if it's fixed.

Simple update..

Courtney had a great try-out. She is a little nervous about going back to park ball (rec league) but is looking forward to playing. We were called on Monday night to let us know that she'll be on the 'Aledo Flash' 10U team. There is only 2 teams for Aledo so we'll be playing Benbrook and maybe another area. She is looking forward to pitching too!!

CJ is still loving school. He especially loves the weekends when his cousins come over :o) He always ask if it's a school night now. He really doesn't like Wednesdays because Josh gets home later than normal and he enjoys watching him play his Xbox games.

Not much else is going on.

Happy Valentine's Day!!

I hope everyone has a sweet Valentine's Day!!

Not much has been going on. Today, Courtney has softball try-outs and it's currently 42 degrees outside! Hopefully it'll warm up by the time her try-outs are which are at 2pm. It's a bit windy too.

CJ is still complaining about his left ear but he went to the Dr. again and nothing is wrong. I'm thinking it's time to take him to the dentist and make sure nothing is going on with his jaw considering me and my TMJ. I'm hoping he doesn't have that but rather be safe than sorry.

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

Groundhog's Day....

Well, Punxsutawney saw his shadow today so that means 6 more weeks of winter!! I've never been a fan of groundhog's day but that is due to a bad memory from my childhood. I was at school during recess and doing a flip on the monkey bars when all of a sudden someone wanted the bar and pried my hands off while I was flipping. I hit the ground chin first (it was a cement ground with sand covering it). I had blood coming out my mouth. Luckily for me, I only had to have stitches and all my teeth were fine. Not that any of you wanted to hear that story....I guess I'm just rambling...LOL

Well, in other news, I got the call from the school I applied to and......

I GOT THE JOB!!!!!

I go today, after 3pm to pick up the paperwork and everything and I will start either Wednesday or Thursday of this week. I get 2 work polos (black and red) and then get to wear khaki or black pants and tennis shoes. I'm excited!!! Thank you to all of your prayers and good thoughts plus I can't forget my references :o)!!!

At least there was some great news today!!!!

Update on news....

Well the 'news' was too good to be true. There is no contract on the house. The couple who loves the house has a little one and doesn't want to do the driveway so they have decided to back out. There is still the single mother that hasn't made up her mind but who knows. Thankfully there is still the open house today so we'll just wait and see. I really hate the waiting game.

Please keep those prayers and fingers crossed!!!

Keep those prayers coming and fingers crossed!!!

I received a call today from our Realtor - we 'should' have a contract on our house today or tomorrow!!! Yes those prayers and good thoughts are working!! Keep them coming!!! I'm so EXCITED (as if you can't tell).

As soon as I hear more information - I'll definitely post something.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for all those good thoughts, prayers and fingers crossed :o)

Can't believe it's almost February!!

Wow - where does time go? This year doesn't seem to be moving any slower than past years - before you know it - it'll be Christmas again!!

Well, I haven't heard anything about any of the jobs I've applied for. I did hear some promising news about one of my references being called :o) Thanks Mellan for telling mom about that! It gives me a glimpse of hope!!

What's a new year without CJ being sick? You guessed it - he's been sick. He missed school all week and we thought he broke his fever over the weekend. On Tuesday evening - he had another one. So, yesterday afternoon we took him to see a doctor and you'll never guess what was wrong with him - yep, an ear infection! She told us that we probably want to have him allergy tested too since he had all the signs. Another child to go through that - fun fun!

Oh and we were hit by the wonderful ice storm. Jason ended up having 3 days off of work and finally went back today. The kids were out of school yesterday because of it. Some of the roads still have ice patches on them but thankfully most of it melted yesterday.

Some news on the house...there was a single mom who really liked the house but still hasn't made up her mind (keeping fingers crossed), another realtor took someone to look at it AND there is an open house this weekend. Keeping my fingers crossed and praying really hard that something will click and it'll sell.

That's all the news for now. Hopefully I'll have some update in regards to the house and my job searching :o)
