Well I finally got my husband to plant my garden with me...it's in and all set up with drip system, now we wait. We planted cucumbers, tomatoes, squash, zucchini and cantaloupe. I hope that they make it...the plants are new for us I have only ever grown from seeds. I took some pictures but since our home computer crashed I cannot download them yet. Getting it fixed this next week from my work. I am so glad to work for such a great company.
Our company picnic is this weekend and we can bring as many people as we want. What? Yep - so we are taking my mom but I think we might take Scott's parents too. Who knows. Fun for all. Then next month we get to go on an all paid retreat to a horse ranch in Quincy. We pay for breakfast and gas to get there. Can you say...I am so lucky to have things work out the way they did. I feel like part of the family and so appreciated. It was hard at the time to see that something beter was out there for me as it was rough having no job through the Holiday Season. I felt like such a non-giver to the family. Now, that is all changed. I am so happy! Love life, love my husband and my little boy! Life is good!

Revenge, not sure...
So, if you read my post yesterday - you know I was upset and this is my blog so I can say what I want right?
Well, the person I was talking about left a comment that was how I was the bad guy for not contacing her first, I figured as much. I don't know how email and text messages were not relayed, but I got 4 from her today (text messages) that were cut off but that her mom was supposed to email me an invite but in post was that it was coming by mail? or maybe text message not clear? Should I have to contact someone to be invited to a baby shower? What? She was upset that I did not contact her first about this and that I posted a blog about it. Uh, I did not post ANY personal information about ANYTHING!
I sent her an email separate from here, but not sure if she will get it. Should I text back and then have more things gets mis-communicated?
Frustrated!!!!
P.S. I guess I am such a bad person that she is not longer following my blog. Shame on me for wanting to do something nice for someone.

People never seize to amaze me...
Ever think you know someone, that you have only know for a short while and then they kind of crap on you? I am not saying that I have known this person for awhile, but at the time I met them I had made a HUGE life change to change jobs, and she seemed like a welcoming co-worker. Then 4 months later I was laid off with nothing on the back burner and a whole lotta confidence gone. I was actually asked one time if I was stupid or something by another person I worked with? Nice huh?
Sorry - got distracted...anyway - only knew this person for a short while, we talked every day at work and ate together, shopped for eachother at lunch when we went to the store, made and drank coffee together, etc. I was one of the few that knew at first she was having a baby, was so happy for her, tried to go to lunch once in awhile after I was no longer there but life does happen and she then was restricted on what she could eat due to gestational diabetes, really have not talked to her allot, but keep updated on her blog...well I checked it today and she had her baby shower...awhile ago she texted me that she needed my new address for her showers coming up - one for family and one for friends, I texted her back with where we live now and have been waiting for an invite.
Now let's be honest, I was not too sure on attending,
1. because it is out of town
2. May make me feel uncomfortable to be around people I don't know or people who I used to work with, but if she had really expressed that she wanted me there I would have gone.
3. we have not talked for awhile.
But come on, why ask for my address and then not even send an invite. I went and got a gift as soon as she posted what her theme was. Now what do I do? Do I send it anyway? Do I take it back and save the money? Do I act like the bigger person and just act like nothing happened? I feel as though I shouldn't be mad but as I type this it hurts my feelings. I am only human and I shared allot of personal stuff to her about my pregnancy, birth and then after when my son got sick. - maybe she never wanted to hear all those things and just listened to me talk - not sure. I am not sure about allot of things right now. I just kills me that I, as a person put myself out there so willingly and openly only to get hurt. Maybe hurt is not the word, because like I said, I did not know this person very long but I thought that she was nice and seemed to be genuine. Maybe she thinks of me as the stalker friend that she talked crap to me about.
She got me started on this blog and will probably be reading this and then I will be the bad guy for hurting feelings, but I feel as though this cannot go unnoticed. Life is too short to not say how you feel.
...and I feel HURT!

May-somewhere in the middle
Good Day!
I have been completely overwhelmed with how busy things are that I barely have time to get on here and check the blogs I am addicted too!
We have been talking about having another baby and I think w are almost ready. Tanner starts Kindergarten in August and so with moving, getting EVERYTHING taken care of - I forgot all that is entailed when moving, which is weird because we were just in our last place under 3 years, we are still in the talking stage but are leaning more towards adding another to the family. Tanner is so excited and talks about his baby "brother" all the time. I don't think he will accept a baby sister at all. He wants to give her back and have a brother. I would be happy either way and just want a healthy baby. Healthy!!!! Can I repeat that! ? Healthy! We are nervous to keep the next one in until the first round of shot at 2 months old and to not have too many people hold and kiss all over, but who does not want to love on a new baby? I am guilty. The only thing that keep rolling around in my head, am I ready for no sleep again. Let's face it Tanner is not the best sleeper and we never did the "cry it out" well. He is such an emotional little being, he really is quite hurt by it and takes it personal. He is almost scared to be without one of us at all times, which is good because then we know where he is at, well - most of the time.
Work is Fantastic!!! Our new house is awesome and we are happy, wait did I say that? Yes, we are happy. Now if we can just be rich then... Nope I can do without the money to have the great life I do now with Scott and Tanner. We truly love to spend time with each other and appreciate each new day, for there may never be tomorrow.
Love to you all.

Friday!!!!
So, I have been a lagger on here lately but have great intentions to post...I got some new pictures from my sister in law and thought "let's post them!" This is my son Tanner, he is the love in my heart. Everyday I have with him is such a blessing from the "MOTHER!" to "Mommy hold me", he always manages to melt my heart. With all the hussle and bussle of our lives lately I think I must take a moment to reflect on how lucky I am to be a mother to such a great little kid. At the end of the day, no matter how much I hate things and having no money to the crappy way people treat eachother, he smiles and says "I missed you today" and every and I mean every time it brings tears to my eyes and makes all things better. Eventually everything gets paid and people get what they deserve for how they treat people and I catch up on sleep, etc. Life always seems to work out, but when you are an overthinker like me you tend to freak out over nothing and then look back and say "what the hell was I freaking out for?" Enjoy the pictures, I did.

Someone pinch me, it's a new post!
It's been too long, but seems like something is always coming up. We moved and are all done with getting things over to new house, cleaning old one and doing final walkthrough. SO, now we just wait for our security deposit and I can thankfully say we are D to the O to the N to the E! This move was unexpected and not welcomed at first as we were asked to leave - 60 days notice - and we still don't know why...but maybe this is not about is at all - don't know. In order to not post a book, let's just say that this was a blessing in disguise. We found a great house for just a little bit more a month and one more bedroom - I am starting to hear little pitter patter of feet in the back of my head. Well, maybe...
Easter is this weekend and one of my favorite Holidays since we had Tanner. He loves to hunt eggs and we have the perfect backyard to do a great hunt this year. Plus he has several more hunts at grandparents and Caper Acres too. Should be a great weekend, stay tuned for pictures.
I promise to start posting more, it's easier that way, then I don't have to go back through my clogged brain and try to explain how I was feeling about things, day to day is the immediate reaction to what's up...
Take care!
