Okay people.  I am back and with a bit more of a positive attitude...

Life was really getting me down and out for a while there and I just did not want to send that negativity out into the world, and because I really didin't want the world thinking I was a pity me person (even though I will throw myself some pretty awesome pity parties with some great sweats, alcohol and those fabulous churos from taco bell).

So yeah.  I have a few updates... The kitchen is almost complete and I am almost at the point of showing off some before and after pictures.

Emily is 4 and doesn't listen with the best of them.  Eli is now 18 months and still a beast and loves his daddy's tools and mom's shoes and blow dryer... to say he makes us laugh is an understatement.... However, I can honestly say he is the most whinny kid EVER.  Would love to say that this is just a faze but I am concerned it isn't and that I might end up locking myself in my room with a glass of wine...

Bryan has changed jobs - back to an IT Director role - which helps us financially but also stimulates/challenges him more than his previous job (which he still loves and misses).  I don't know how that man does it but life and jobs just seem to go his way.... I slightly hate him and am jealous of him - but he knows this - so no worries there.

Me- I am still battling it out.  Still dreaming of the dream job (Don't know if I ever mentioned it here, but I would love to own my own wedding boutique- more details later - promise).

But .... We are on to tackling more house projects and life is treating me a bit better - so look out for some new posts coming soon!
