GNO

Last night I had the pleasure of going out with several of the girls that I work with. I was one of their birthday's, so we thought it would be a good chance to escape the pressure of work and motherhood and our wifely duties to have a nice dinner and a couple drinks. We laughed and cut up until almost 9 (I know right, we are rebels) then went home. It was so fun we decided to try to start doing it once a month.. So that is on the books, we are hoping to squeeze in a little GNO every now and then!
The girl that I share my office with lost her mother about 2 months ago. She was in the middle of moving into a new house and selling some lake property when she passed, so she didn't really slow down enough to process what all happened. She had encountered some rather rough times the past couple of weeks and I think its all stemming from the loss of her mom. I got an opportunity to talk with her about it this morning and I just feel terrible for her. She is an amazing woman who usually is the rock of her husband and son both, and now that she is needing some support and emotional guidance, they are at a loss and question every move she makes, and she is at a loss because her support is no longer around. I pray for her. That God will ease this pain and that he will help those around her not only learn to be there for her, but allow her the time that she needs to grieve this great loss. There is not right or wrong way to grieve, the point is that you have to! I am thankful to have family that is supportive and allows me to lean on them when I need to!

Finally.. No where to go and nothing to do... YES PLEASE!

We have been so busy here lately with the rent house and getting it up and ready to sell that I have really been looking forward to a weekend with my boys where we could go and do what we want when we want. So today is Friday and yes it is finally here. I am thinking that we might venture into OKC and take Anderson to the water park and let him play, but again nothing for sure. We've not been out in the boat for a couple weeks now, so we might just do a lake day. Anyway I dont have a lot going on, the pending sale of our house depends on our vacation, so we are patiently waiting to see what is going to happen there. We are still debating about acutally putting it on the market, or just keeping it for sale by owner... who knows!!
Anyway for now that is it, its 9Am and all I can think about is how excited I am to get up in the moring and make pancakes and bacon for the boys. (I am getting pretty good at my "pancake bears" for Anderson! My nanny would be proud, of course they arent anywhere as good as hers.

Monday monday.. cant trust that day.

Well, let's see. We had a balls to wall type of weekend. We are trying to sell some rental property that we own, so we spent the weekend in Durant giving the house a face lift as one Realtor called it. haha Anyway, I was soo tired and ready to get home, but after spending 3 days there I came home only to find that I still had a crap load of stuff to do here. Luckily I got a little burst of energy and so did Ron, so when we got back to the house around 5, he got out the mower and weed eater and took care of the yard while I rustled with the inside a little. We all went to bed and got up for a normal Monday. Anderson off to Nanny's, and Ron and I off to work. There wasn't really anything exciting going on today, with Anderson ever day there is something new... he was off his routine because we stayed with the in laws this weekend and he loves to play with mattmatt and unka (Matthew and Micah) so tonight he went to bed on time and Ron and I are just enjoying some us time.. watching baseball. How romantic right. hahha Its nice to just know that our little one is all snug in bed resting and we can still spend some time together. I don't really know what the week has in store for us, this is going to be a busy month and come September, I am sooo going to be ready for a vacation! Anyway, where ever you are, whatever you may be doing.. I hope this finds you safe happy and healthy.. until next time. Good night and God Bless.
