Hmmmm, it's been several month's since I have been here, posted here or even checked in.

I have been working mostly. Not a bad thing. My children went back to school this past Tuesday and that was pretty hectic with all of the supplies, clothes and everything else they require these days for school. My oldest turned 15 in May and she is in the 10th grade. She is taking drivers ED this semester and she is excited about it. If truth be told, I am excited also. Not because she will be driving soon, but because I look at her now, not as a child, but a young women with her whole life ahead of her. She has so much to look forward too. She is a beautful girl and has turned out to be a great kid. I am so very proud of her.

My middle child, started 8th grade this year. WOW. 8th grade. She is doing so well. I think she is coming into her own and finding herself. What I mean by that is she is finding her own style, her likes, her dislikes. She is taking chorous again this year. She loves to sing and play instruments. She has a great voice and was referred for private voice lessons from her Chorous teacher. She is amazing with her music. She can actually play her keyboard and recite a song that she hears. She plays by ear. It's pretty amazing. I have been told that not many people can do that. I know I couldnt. She has ADHD but doesnt let anything get in her way or keep her from her music. I think it's pretty cool.

My youngest is in 5th grade this year. He is my little Bill Gates. Smart as whip. I recently got his SOL test scores back from last year and he scored "advanced proficient" in Mathmatics and history. He loves school and he is very serious about it. He seems to like his new teacher. That is always a plus. He is my little man. I love him to peices.

Hubby has been working with my step-father. He owns his own business and he is doing pretty well. Although, we both hardley see eachother with all the working. It's ok though, we are trying to buy a house with in the next few months so we are saving like mad. I am really proud of my hubby too. I think he finally feels like he is a contributor. I wont elaborate on that because I would be posting all day.

As for me. Working mostly. This time around is a little easier in alot of ways. Before I went back I was clear in my boundaries and my boss really respects that which has made it pretty easy for me. There have been some changes but mostly I think for the best. Change is always hard, just takes time to work out the kinks.

I feel less "lost" now. Even though there are times when I dont know if I am coming or going. I think I know the general direction I am going. I hope that makes sense!!!

I will end the ramblings now. ; )

Thanks to all of you who have checked in on me and helped me through some difficulties. I appreciate the time you took and love you gave me.

Huggles and love,

Jen
