Hello Blog World...

Hello Blogettes... How are you all? I have missed you..

I have been WORKING..{yay me!}.
I worked my booty off this week! Let me tell you!
The week back to work was a grand mixture of loving excitement & grueling exhaustion.  My job changed at the last minute and I was assigned one on one with a special needs student. I'm great for this as I can mix being loving and yet be tough, and I seem to have a high patience level (who'd have known?) ..but it is difficult when you are not fully aware or trained to deal with all the medical & physical demands a child with special needs have. For confidential reasons, I can't share much. Let's just say it was a truly difficult week, but I love my job.

I am adjusting to working this shift as well. I enjoy it although working second shift is a change.  Especially when I come home after midnight & try to quietly shower & come to bed without waking the Hubby. We haven't seemed to get the dogs use to my schedule & they give Hubby a hard time, and get excited when I get home. I try to shhhh them but the Little Guy is a yapper.

I spent all of Friday & Saturday free time sitting around relaxing and catching up on email, Blog World, Pinterest, & Facebook. I have a Twitter account but never pop on. Time magnets. I know. But, it was a nice way to unwind.

Hubby & I have really enjoyed this weekend. I guess he missed me a bit♥
We have gone on walks, bike rides, and even drove around a target area we would love to live. What's that you say? Didn't we just move here 2 years ago? Yes... BUT those that know us know we use to move a lot. We made a good chunk of change flipping homes. Stayed for a while in one spot while the girls grew up. But the thought of moving again is lingering. Especially with a favorite house on the market. I will blog more about that on another post.
Hanging with the Hubby has been Bliss.
Today, I work but not until 8pm. I am going to help the Hubby clean the garage. Maybe cook a nice dinner. Hope to see a daughter & give her the little curtain I made her. And, I have a girlfriend that is having a party at a Roller Skate place we all hung out at when we were kids. She is turning 50. How fun to celebrate on skates??? It's been a while... Not since the girls were little. I am not sure if I will actually skate or sit & gab. Either way, Im sure glad she is having it in the afternoon so I can pop in. Lets hope I don't break a leg!
Well, I best be going. A lot on my schedule and the day is ticking away.
Love to you all, have a blessed day♥

A Flawless Friday

After a couple of icky days, today turned out to be pretty darn flawless.
I was a little stir-crazy having Blogger down, although it kept me from writing negative stuff.

I had a little dental mishap on Tuesday, and I am surviving just fine now. (Although pain is still involved). Seems I am one of the less than 5% that have a bad reaction...chemical burns to be exact.. to the gums from the acid etchant in replacing an old filling & chipped tooth. I have medication, but the burn does hurt and is  very annoying. It's gross. Little pieces of the "burnt" gum is falling out and I am anxious for it to completely heal.  I have the most gentle loving expert Dentist, I do not blame her at all. I do realize it is just one of those things that can happen. If you saw the look in her eyes as well as her assistant, I know they hate seeing this happen to me and as frightened as I am of Dental procedures, I trust her over EVERY OTHER DENTIST. Stuff just happens.

Anyway, back to my Flawless Friday...

Today, Emily & Annie visited with Hubby's folks for a bit then headed to meet with a couple of their Besties for lunch and a movie.

We saw Bridesmaids. It was hilarious. I laughed so hard I cried. All five of us were. I will warn you, the first 5 minutes was an uncomfortable not necessary sex scene.. Of course when you are sitting next to your daughters it just feels very wrong to be watching this (it always feels wrong to be watching sex..Take the porn out, it wasn't necessary)
HOWEVER~
The rest of the movie was so funny. It's The Hangover kind of funny... Very Saturday Night Live and Mad TV, so this isn't for everyone. But it was for me. Brace yourself for a long (2 hours) nonstop laughing session.

Later, Hubby & I took Annie to one of our favorite Pizza joints... Jokamo's. On yummy! Even with a messed up mouth, this was scrumptious! (tiny slow bites). We came home and Hubby & Annie went bike riding while I walked (Mall walker fast style to keep up). Beautiful evening for it.

I love days like this. I hope it will last through the weekend. Emily will be leaving Sunday to return to Muncie for Summer session. Annie will remain here & hopefully find a summer job.

Here's to a wonderful summer♥
