Hello out there?

Wow, so it’s been that long? Well I’m here. I almost forgot about this place and I probably could have used it in the last few months.

Situations are still the same. I am hopeful that my birthday presents from my folks will be sizable. I could be wrong but from what my mom told me on the phone it should take care of my woes. I am still behind about 5-600$ instead of being ahead. Hopefully I’ll be able to pay off a few things, finally pay my sister back and put some aside. Hopefully it will be timely. I have gotten money at Christmas time for my birthday which is this week. I am pretty bummed because we were going to buy a house but my parents never did help us and we couldn’t have afforded the mortgage alone and I’d rather live in this appartment than in a house I can afford because those houses are not in the safe areas or good school districts. The reason I’m bummed is because on my way to a friend’s house to work on her computer, I saw someone moving into my dreamhouse. I started crying. That’s the house I wanted..the one I still want. I know it wasn’t meant to be, we prayed about it but it still hurts. I guess it won’t hurt when I see the house God has in store for us

Afterall, I am turning 30….ugh! I didn’t think this would affect me much but it does. I’m not sure why. Maybe it’s because I have to actually be a grown up now or something. I just don’t feel that old. I still feel like I’m 22, the same as when I came here to the US.

I am so busy with things and projects. I have overalled my personal domain and I think it looks ok. I already don’t like it as much as when I did it. I finally revamped my husband’s site…finally. I felt guilty, I have been telling him for over a year I was going to do it and I just did other things. Poor thing. Now he has to work on it and edit it and put content on it. He puts his poetry on there. I’m really proud of the blend I did for the layout though.

I have another site to build this week, it’s a fanlisting for a christian author. I’m pretty excited about that other than I’m a little site building out. It adds to my portfolio. I wish I had a project but on the other hand, I have so much going on. I have only had one person use me to build a site and it did bring in money but now it’s not even active anymore which kinda pisses me off after all the work I did on it. Oh well, if he asks for it again, I’ll try to find the disk but it’s been 2 years. It’s *somewhere* though.

Hubby applied with the school district, had one interview but nothing yet. I feel a little relieved. I keep hoping he will wait another year and that’s been going on for a few years. Even if I started working where he worked, I would only be making 1$ more than I do now and that’s still 4 less than he makes now. I think it’s will work out thought. Our car will be paid off next year at this time so I will feel a lot better about him taking a pay cut.

Kiddo is adjusting to school ok I think. There are still remnance of an incident that happened 1 year ago at a daycare where inappropriate touching took place but all in all I think kiddo is doing ok. Scared of new friends and things but the teacher said that she didn’t forsee any problems.

I took kiddo to the zoo today and we had a nice time and it was quality time although at the end we were both tired, sweaty and cranky! The line was so long to ride the little train that we hoofed back to the entrance. Oh man my feet hurt when we got to the car!

Well that’s all for now.
