I have found myself at a lose for words, which explains my lack of blogging in MONTHS. It seems that I need to tell a story whenever I write, and since nothing new has been going on in our little lives, I don't write. I wake up every morning get my kids ready and off to school, then watch other peoples children while they, the children, play. There is comfort in routine, there is also boredom. I can't complain, after the year I had last year it is nice to have predictability, and stability. I haven't made it to college just yet, pell grant doesn't cover enough, and couldn't get to paper pusher of the army to send to required info I needed to complete my application. So I wait. I am sure when the time is right the way will be made for me. But I am studying up on my math skills.

Here are a few pictures of life these past few months. In no particular order.

It snowed, a little.

Christmas. Poor Ashly was sick on Christmas!

Ashley had a birthday, 11 already!

Halloween.

He hates getting his picture taken!


No pictures of Thanksgiving. I did make a pumpkin pie from a real pumpkin, not from a can. And it turned out good!

No pictures from News Year. The kids and I went to the movies then come home and almost made it until midnight. It just isn't as fun as it use to be to stay up late. Arnold was back in Phoenix so it was just the kids and I. He is currently in Little Rock going school, for National Guard. He will be gone until February 12. But after that he will be fully qualified to do his job. I should say trained, because he had been doing this same job for the army for 7 years. There are minor details that are different, anyway, he is away.

We have had lots of much needed rain the past couple weeks. I am now looking forward to seeing the sun any day now. And I am ready for spring. So that is what you have missed while I have not blogged. Probably there is more, but that is all there is right now.
