I am a 38yo wife, mother, friend & sister. I have been married for 17 years, and I have two children: Music (formerly Karate Kid) my 14yo son, and Drama Queen, my 12yo daughter.
Surprise, everyone! I'm still around. Things have quieted down a bit, so I'm hoping to be on here more often. I still won't get to visit all of you until bows are done, though. For the last 5 weeks, I've been working 3 jobs: full-time child care, bows and part-time medical transcription. I had kids here from 7:00 to 5:30, typed from 6:00-10:00 at night, and worked on bows before, during, and after. Plus The Hubster had outpatient surgery in the midst of it all. Let me tell you, a nurse I am not. I was out of patience and compassion by 10:30 on the night of his surgery. Since I couldn't hear him in the bedroom with all of the kids here, I gave him a bell to ring when he needed me. I was so ready to chunk that bell through the window within 20 minutes. He had to have help with everything. Everything! He couldn't get in or out of bed without my help, could not go to the bathroom, could not get dressed, etc. I am thrilled to report that he goes back to the doctor on Monday and will probably be released to go back to work on Tuesday! Woo hoo!
Thank you to all of you who participated in Flat Stanley! Keilani, you made Drama Queen's day! She was so excited to come home and show me all of her treasures. And thanks for the chocolate-covered macadamia nuts!!! I can't wait until Drama Queen gets to bring home all of the pictures and things that you guys sent. I've been dying to see them.
I hope some of you still stop by from time to time. Let me know how you're doing until I can get back to dropping by your sites.
