Hi, everyone. I know I'm the world's biggest loser for not posting ever. I'm sorry.
To all the new friends: I'll try to post more again.
Soooo, what's up with me? Well, Morgynne is going to be (YIKES) 16 in February. Indigo just turned 1. She has molars and says many words. She's been walking for a few months. Morgynne started walking at 9 months.
I'm not working at the moment. Lost one job when I was sick (OMGWTF they never figured out what it was (is) and I still have some effects from it. The left side of my throat healed closed or something and something is going on with the eustachian tube on that side as well as the general otonasoglottopharyngial area. I get random "tickles" which are a combination of an itch, pain, swelling and it causes and instant cough which does nothing. I don't have insurance so I can't go to an ENT to be scoped to figure it out. I have a great doctor who I see at the clinic and he's going to put together a homeopathic remedy for me. Soooo, that was a tangent... Lost that one job when I got sick and the other job restructured the clinical classes so they need one less teacher. Yay for me. So, I'm basically their bitch substitute for now.
Still kind of on unemployment I think, though there's some question as to whether I'm getting an extension or a new claim. I'd rather just be working. Matt picks up odd jobs here and there but he's not working a steady job right now either. I've gotten used to being broke and learning to love shopping at Goodwill. It's especially fun for x-mess shopping (we scored an N-Sync throw blanket/rug thing. don't know who I'm giving it to yet...)
My little brother (meth addict, father of 4 age 4 and under, see memories for more info) is currently in jail awaiting transfer to some rehab program where he will be for a minimum of 11 months. I guess this time he stole a bunch of guns, almost all of my mother's jewelery, and abused them in some way. His wife, Stephanie, is blaming my parents for all of this. She has also been using (supposedly stopped but I call the bullshit flag on that one) and is living at my parents' house with the 4 kids. My parents got a deadbolt on their bedroom door and are wearing the key around their necks again. They're used to living like that I guess. I let Morgynne (and Matt) meet my mom yesterday and hang out for a couple of hours. Even Morgynne was trying to call gramma on her shit about Frank. She was trying to say he had never done anything like this before. Ell oh ell.
I still don't speak with my parents. It's much better that way. I have their emails marked as read and sent to a folder where I will be unaware of their existence. My 3 sisters are on very limited if any speaking terms with them too.
My baby sister is having her first baby in December (or maybe at the end of this month!!) Her baby shower was October 16 and myself and our middle sister flew out to surprise the SHIT out of her. OMG it was awesome. I'll post that story with pictures soon.
This is getting to be long, but at least I got my foot back in the door. Sorry this was completely uninteresting. OH, for now, here's a picture of Indigo on Halloween:
and another taken by my photographer friend (also the lady in the photo above) who took pics at Indigo's birth (I finally started outlining the birth story so that will be coming soon with pics).
