January 20, 2009!!

Well it's been a couple of days and what a great day to pick back up and start a new post!! Today is the Inauguration of President Barack Obama!!! I am here at work(I swear this job never closes for anything! we were even open yesterday for Martin Luther King Jr. Day!) the kids are at home because there was a snow day here and there is NO snow on the ground, and Michael is home with them. I just watched the Inauguration on the computer here and all I can say is WOW! What an amazing accomplishment we have all come to achieve. It makes me so happy that we as Americans have come together to elect this wonderful man into Office! I hope everyone takes some time to just look around and say YES WE DID as a whole not just one race but all races!! As I write this and listen in on CNN's live coverage I can here Celebrate playing in the background! What a great day. Just thought I'd share my feelings with everyone today! I hope you all are as excited about today as I am!! The change starts TODAY!

Homesick

It's Wednesday and the transition back to school and back to work has been all but smooth, due to personal reasons I haven't been back to work yet but the kids have been to school all this week, Mchael still isnt back and I have been extremely home sick... I can't believe i'm calling Maine home but I have definately been missing it this week. The kids received there progress report Yesterday and they are all doing good. Tomorrow it's back to work for me and hopefully next week will run much smoother! Thought I'd give some an update before the end of the week..

The Women

Today was a semi busy day for me and the kids, they didn't wake up until about 1:00 this afternoon, and then we were off to look at a place. I 'm not to sure how i'm going to like it but I'll actually get to peak inside tomorrow at 3. After looking at the place we took a trip to WalMart so I could exchange my Snowman because the motor on it blew and they really tried to tell me that because he was a seasonal item I could not exchange him or get my money back! This made me very agree, so agree in fact that a manager had to be called to assist me and needless to say I got a new snowman. Oh and I bought him for 35.00 and he is now 8.25! After WalMart we went to Borders and I bought a book that a friend from my job has been raving about called the Stephanie Plum Novels, these books are actually going to be my begining of the year reads, there are about 15 of them I think and they sound pretty interesting so I'll keep everyone posted.
So i've cooked dinner and everyone has taken a bath and I decided to watch a movie I picked from the redbox called The Women, what a good movie! I reccomend it for all the ladies reading this that have close friendship and for those whom aren't so dependant upon men. Now that the movie is done I'm off to start my book!

It's 2009!!

Well Christmas has come and gone and so has 2008! It seem like it went by so fast, I guess it's because of all that really happened in 2008, I moved to a new state, I got married, Had a birthday, made history by helping the world to elect the first African American President, and now all of that brings me to 2009. Our Christmas was good, we spent it with one of our favorite familys and this was the first christmas we didn't have any of our family around, but we spent most of our day on the phone with them. Michael was extremely home sick becasue he would normally be in Jamaica for the holiday, but me and the kids were excited because he wasn't! The kids loved there prescents so much actuallt that the are still playing them daily! We did have some dissapointment in these last couple of days and that was that Michaels grandfather passed away, so Michael was given his opportunity to fly off to Jamaica for the funeral and he has left us. So as of now it's me and the kids hanging out until the 5th when they go back to school and I go back to work, I'm hoping this week will fly by so Michael will be back, I've been lokking for a new place for us to call home because we're paying an arm and a leg for rent here and we'd like to save as much money as we can so we can buy a house soon.
We can't wait to see what the year 2009 will have to bring for us but i can definately say we are starting it off right.
