All right, so a few things have changed since the last time I posted. I'm married, my daughter was born, I'm living in North Carolina, I have a new friend: her name is Sam, and I've mostly been miserable. I married my daughter's father and my on-again, off-again boyfriend of 5 years... Richard is working at Circut city back in Fort Myers, still with his mom, but slowly getting enough money to go to college or do something with his life. Margie and I talk every now and again... but not too terribly often. Kat, well... I don't know about Kat. I've called her several times, but I guess she's just busy with the band or something. Ofi hasn't had a very good year from what I can tell. A very good friend of ours turned out to not be such a great person so neither of us have spoken to him since an incident that happened on Christmas. My oldest younger sister has to go to court to get full custody and child support from her ex. My two youngest sisters may never see Dad again because of something that happened between him and their mother that's not public information. You can obviously guess how Dad is taking the news. Jim and Kay are moving to Tennessee this year. I've taken up a new hobby - geneology. I'm working on the family tree and I've come to a dead end on my father's side and I don't know Craig's mother's mother's name or mother's father's name, so I don't have anything on that part of the tree. I'm mostly working on it for Mara, but also for my sisters... which makes it harder considering the mother differences. I've spoken to my friend Tim, who is now married and living in Arizona, he's not doing too great... I'm hoping things in his marriage will improve soon.
My little one has gotten so big. She's walking and her vocabulary consists of two main words and here or there she'll say something but I can't really understand it. She's climbing up on things, she'll bring me things, she shuffles around like an old granny... I love her so much. She's such a serious baby around strangers, but so lively and happy at home. I'm just enjoying my time with my family.
We got our tax return yesterday, so we spent some money on some D&D stuff at this hobby store called The Hobbit (awesome, huh?) Then we finally got Mara a highchair. No more back pain trying to feed her in her stationary exersaucer! Yay! Once I've picked up Craig from PT we're going to get our first washer and dryer! I'm so excited! I told Craig the other day that the only thing I wanted for St. Valentines Day is a laundry room, so that's what I'm getting! Yay! Well, I'm surprised the little one lasted as long as she did without my undivided attention, so to attend to her I must take my leave.
