still alive and kicking
so this morning i realized that i had not posted in my eljay since like january (i think). wow. i love the release this gives me. but...i guess i got tired of having nothing but negative things to say. ha.
i'll start out with the bad...the mema situation at home is beyond horrible. her alzheimer's is progressing and life with her plain ass sucks. it is absolute misery.
that aside. life is pretty dang ok. :)here's some of the hilights of the past few months...
eric has graduated from college. he's gotten hired as a second grade teacher here at one of the local elementary schools. he starts in august!
eric and i just got back from a week cruise to the cayman islands. so beautiful! so relaxing. so much fun!!! *sigh* i love that man! it's amazing that he puts up with me and this homelife. really.
in april eric and i took the boys to washington dc for a family trip. pammie and loren went too. that was a wonderful trip. i'd love to go back again and see all the rest of what we couldn't fit into those 4 days.
maddox is a year old now! and the most precious little spoiled rotten man ever!!! <3
ginny and bailey are engaged!!! whoo hoo!!! wedding stuff!!!
casey is truly in love with seth! and living with him for the summer! wow. lol the baby is old enough to be living with a man! *faint*
geez. so much has happened. but you get the idea. lots of good. :) if it wasn't for mema's mind going and her treating us like shit everyday of our lives...things would actually be wonderful. but i promise that situation truly outweighs all the good right now.
trying to keep my head up. holding on to the positives as best as i can! chin up, right?!
you have no idea how big of a deal this is... but ginny and bailey and eric and i might actually get to go out to dinner tonight!!!!!!!! unbelievable!!!! with both of us needing babysitting, it's always one couple or the other going somewhere while the other babysits. (and maddox is a lot easier to handle than mema). but mama might be babysitting both tonight!!! WHOO HOO!!!!!!! our mama rocks so much harder than yours!!!! lol
off to work now!
