Thank Goodness for Ibuprofen!

I am finally feeling somewhat better. Finally! But Matt has still not gone back to work. This Sucks!!! He still has a job, but they are waiting to start the next site. So he's technically been temporarily laid off. Guess it's to be expected in our economy. That is why I am looking into going back to school. Matt's 2 weeks off has turned into 6, and we still don't know when... Yay!

I have a Computer again!!!

Finally! I got the cord that had broken to power the computer up. I have been in serious computer withdrawl! Isn't that sad? Not too many years ago we didn't even have computers in our house. Now, I feel lost without it. I use it way too much! I even use it to find recipes and phone numbers or answer questions I have. But beside that, we've had a roller coaster of a month. Seriously too much to cover. But on the other end, we a re still waiting for Matt to get back to work. He still has a job, but they are waiting for Provo city to tell them to start. Also, Mariah is still at her Dad's, and I am recovering from surgery to remove a mass I had. I am excited to get back to normal and be able to start working out again. Right now I am working on staying horizontal to control the pain. Oh, life it beautiful!

Gone Again

So Mariah is gone once again to her Dad's house. I loved having her home with us, though much of her visit she was with friends that wanted to see her. I love my daughter with all of my heart and I truly believe that whatever the outcome, she really needs this experience. It's just really hard. Plus, he will have her for Easter. The first holiday EVER that one of my children hasn't been with me. It's OK, though. If Eddy'a really stepping up and going to be a consistent part of Mariah's life, I better get used to splitting up the holidays. I am concerned with the fact that I think they smoke inside their home. I stood at the door last night and the smell of cigarettes just permeated out. I am going to have to talk to him about that, because I am not OK with that. We'll just get to see how it keeps going!
