Well I will have two posts for December!!!!

I have thought about blogging many times... but uhh life just gets so darn busy. December is always a busy month any way but I had an Aunt pass away and it just threw us all for a loop. I found out that my Aunt Kathy passed away on Thursday and I was on a plane to Utah on Friday. It was so sad. I have never met my aunt but I did get to meet family members that I have not seen before. A majority of them live in Salt Lake City (no they are not Mormon!!) and I found out that I have a cousin in Sumner Washington :) He is just as crazy as the rest of us!!! Even though the visit was for a death in the family I had a great time. I met my sister and mom at the airport the Friday we flew in. It was kind of nice because I had not seen her or my sister for about six months. Man I really do miss them so much! My mom is the one behind me (on the right side on the end) and my sister, Michelle, is on my my left. Shawna is right next to Michelle (Aunt Kathy's Daughter), Ray is sitting right beside Shawna, Timmy is standing in the background (with tequila in his hand can sure tell he is family!!!) and Brenda (Ray's wife) is on the left end of the the table. Yes all the beer bottles are empty!!!

My sister, Shawna and I went and got our pictures taken and then gave them to Uncle Kenny and my Mom for Christmas! It was such a great surprise and the look on her face was priceless. My sister is to my left and Shawna is on my right. Shawna is such a kick in the pants!!! You can tell she is family => She is spunky, strong and very independent. She has a heart of gold.

CJ is doing good with his ADHD. I am thinking that they need to up his meds just a little bit more but other then that it is well. His dad is taking him more consistently that really helps.

Work is going well. Things have really calmed down and seems to be working themselves out. My boss would like me to work on our company blog and be in charge of our customer care blog. I am kind of nervous about it but I am excited all at the same time. I should be getting my cost of living raise :) I can't wait! It is only 5% but meh better then nothing.

I haven't been taking my Byetta as I should but I am starting back on it again. I can see a difference even by just taking it one time a day.

Well that is all for now.. I know that I will be writing more as there are all of a sudden about a million things happening and I just want to get them all in.

It has been awhile :)

Wow!!! It has been awhile since I last wrote....Yes I am still alive and I owe this writing to my friend Angie.... she is so sweet and she is always very gently reminding me that I need to get back to it.
A lot has happened so I don't know where to begin. Let's see...things at work are going a lot better! I have a new boss and not only is he an awesome man but he is VERY easy on the eyes :)
He is so great at giving praise went needed and just being there for you to just shoot the shit ;) He is not caught up in the political BS of things. This week on Friday we are having a company bowling party and and I am kind of excited. My team mates are people that I don't work with directly so it is going to be a blast to get to know them in a different light.

My son who has ADHD is going to bed easier (praise God!). I thing though that he has a sleeping disorder. He is always tired. I have been doing some research and I am finding that is pretty common. I am going to talk with his doctor to see how we can detect it and how we can make sure that he gets the rest he needs so that he is not so damn cranky all the time.

I have started to sell PartyLite and I LOVE IT!!! This month I made $300 and the people have been calling me to have parties LOL. It is nice I did not have to pay anything at all out of my pocket to start so it is nice to have something that gives me some`some extra money and I get to meet new people too. It think that is the best thing I like about it. I have the best team leader ever she is so supportive and so nice. I hope I can be as knowledgeable and nice ;) At first when I started this I was just wanting to do two or so parties a month but it has been working out to about four or five parties a month. It is nice because I spent about 10 a week and that is not even every week there are weeks that I don't do anything and still get paid LOL. It is nice to because I have gotten to meet people in Portland, I would like to go more to Salem.

My husband and I are doing better. We are able to communicate better and just work better together.

I am still doing the byetta thing. Not as often as I forget to give my self a shot sometimes but overall doing much better health wise. The doc has upped my Paxil due to my frequent anxiety attacks. It is weird how they happened quite a bit at work and now they are starting to lessen not that the bitches are not being as bitchy.

I have found a really awesome blog Rick Dancer . He is a local news anchor for Kezi.
He has such a heart for people it is so amazing.

That is all for now I will for sure to write more as The Holiday season approaches!
