Who needs sleep when I have so much to do? Oh yeah – I DO. This working nights but still having 8-12 hour class days every week is messing with my clock, my sanity and my ability to keep my thoughts straight. I’ve mentioned before having all sorts of post ideas but not being able [...]

I think I swore in the last post, ONE WEEK AGO that I would be writing soon, and getting back on the blogging band wagon. I hate to ruin my rep for being an absolute Saint, but I am a known liar. Working nights without a husband here is kicking my butt. I am busy, [...]

Avelyn got her third tooth Tuesday, the upper left front tooth. You can’t see it by just looking at her but she’s tonguing it a lot. I have a jobinterview on Monday. For a real job. A real nursing job. Moment of silence for Keanu… whoa. I’ve settled on a theme for Avelyn’s first birthday [...]

I’m finally home. Hobo Baby and Daddy are doing alright back in the SA. No one has lost any fingers or toes yet. Before I left I laid out all of Avelyn’s clothes into little “ensembles” and took pictures of them so Kevin could make sure she matched. I won’t go into details about where [...]

I’ve had a great weekend here in San Antonio. Friday night I unloaded all of Avelyn’s clothes into Kevin’s old dresser and threw his clothes on the floor of the closet. He really only kept ugly old t-shirts and mail in those drawers anyway. Saturday my MIL bought a car seat for her car for [...]
