M.I.A.

Did you all see the moon last night?? It was so amazingly beautiful. It reminded me of God.
So....I have been missing in action here lately haven't I! Its hard to keep up with my blog for some reason lately between working extra jobs at IBM to keep busy and then being with Kris every night just about! I am kind of stealing time right now because Alicia is at the neighbor's and Alex is in school!

I am finding every day to be so full lately. If its not something for the kids, its something for my parents or my house or Kris and I. Last weekend I had a WIC appointment Friday, spent most of the morning with my neighbor/friend Becka and her kids, and then Kris came over after he got out of work. Saturday Kris and I took the kids to Denny's with my parents for breakfast, then we drove up to Newport Center which is 2 hours away to visit my BFF Bobby (boy) and his wife and kids. We had dinner there and got back at almost 9pm. Then Kris wanted to rent a movie so he drove all the way to Blockbuster to rent Blades of Glory which I promptly fell asleep watching about 10 different times and awoke to him carrying me up to my bed.

The next day Becka volunteered to take Alicia to Smuggler's Notch for the day to go hiking and visit Ben and Jerry's, and Alex had soccer at 3:30! Alicia didn't get home until after 4pm and then I had to drive them to Essex to Rocky's house. Monday was Cub scouts at 6:30pm which I took time off from work to bring him to so lets see I left work at 5, went to the Adidas outlet to buy new running shoes, and then picked up both kids, went to Milton to Cub Scouts, drove back to Essex, dropped them off, drove to Burlington to drop off earrings to my Mom that she bought, and then went to Kris'. We took a walk to the waterfront, I almost fell asleep on his knee, and then I did fall asleep on his bed when we got back. I woke up at 12:30am, drove back to Milton, went back to bed, and got up at 5:40 to go to work. Tuesday was relatively quiet, a gorgeous night with 79 degree temps at night, my FAVORITE!! Marie came over (she is back from Arizona and 2 weeks from being due to have her baby) until 10, and Kris was over until midnight just about. I stayed up after he left watching the clouds pass by the bright, full moon. I played with my camera to see if I could get a better night shot. I learned a bit about my camera I didn't know. I never explored the settings much before. I still wish I had one that could do nighttime pictures.

Today Marie is coming for the changing table, high chair, and crib that I have. That means I have to clean the beer bottles off the changing table! Shit. I don't think Kris is coming over tonight but I'm not sure. Things are going really well between us. He is great with the kids and hasn't changed his feelings toward me after 2.5 months. Usually at this point you can tell if someone is going to start being a douche. The only problem I have is when I have PMS I get annoyed. Not just by him, but if he is around and I'm irritable...yikes!! Luckily I know about it and can control it pretty well. Its amazing because once the PMS is gone I don't get annoyed at all. Weird. The kids were driving me bonkers last night and I know it was part PMS, part Full Moon, and part exhaustion!

So that is what I have been up to lately. I will try harder to keep posting because I know at least 3 people read this blog and that's worth it to me!
