I am alive....

Wow, it's been a long time since I wrote anything! We have been extremely busy around here and honestly the blog has just not been that important. So what's new.....

* We are battling the giarrdia yet again. Wil seemed to be free and clear but then a few days ago the diarrhea started again and to top it off Sam got it again. I am neurotic with cleaning after Wil and he doesn't bathe with Sam or even in the same bathtub, we wash his clothes separately, he sleeps in his own bed, etc...but it still managed to get to Sammy again. So it has not been a good week around here. Diarrhea x two sucks....

* Wil is talking more and more but what I notice is that when you ask him questions he simply repeats the last word you said to him and doesn't really answer them. For example...if I said " do you want to go to the park?" he would respond with "park?"...I am hoping to get him to the speech therapist soon and have him evaluated.

* I am officially a University student again! I have enrolled in a few courses that are done by distance learning. It should be interesting.

* I am also officially going back to work. I really need to use the part of my brain that has not been used over the past few years at home. Not that it hasn't been fun but I need to get out of the house. The nice thing is I won't have to worry about childcare. My sister will pick up the slack if Phil is not home from work and I will only work a couple days a week. We considered getting a nanny but quite honestly I think it would be weird for my big kids and with me only working a couple days a week we should do fine without.

* They began framing the new house this week and we are being told mid September for our possession date. Everything is picked out, all the papers signed, now I can relax.

* Phil is off to Vegas with the guys for a few days and I am going to work on my ever growing list of things that need to be done around here to get the house ready to be put on the market. We ordered new carpet and it should be installed next month. I am painting all the millwork and making a few new curtains to freshen things up a bit.

* The weather here is gross. It has snowed about 8 inches in the last few days and I am beyond sick of crappy weather. I was so excited the other day when I was out and I realized I could see the pavement on my street again...then it snowed again.

* Wil had his 3rd Birthday last week and was thrilled with all his gifts and knew right away how to blow out his candles. I will get some pictures on here soon.

That's all I got for now...

Duke it out...

Mandy at 3+3=6 (which you can find on the side bar of my blog) has started a Hot Topic of sorts. Everyone...join in! It could get interesting!

Did you watch Ellen???

That guy is the biggest dickhead on Earth. I cannot believe I actually liked him in the last season when he got dumped by De-ah-na.....I wish I could ask him a few things....

1. Why do you cry so much? I don't unusually subscribe to those gender stereotypes, such as man don't cry, but you really need to man-up! If I had to see you bawl one more time I was going to kick you in your mangina.

2. Why does your son look like a monkey? I think that Ty has the ability to restore the belief of even the most religious person, in the Theory of Evolution.

3. Where did you learn that dumping someone on national television is the classy thing to do? It must have been the same place you learned that exploring another woman's upper respiratory tract with your tongue right after is also cool.

I am now setting my hopes on Gillian, our Canadian bachelorette. I am hoping she does not embarrass herself and act like a complete loser.
