I am back!

Its been a long time since I posted and I apologize for that. We had such a nice August, very busy and very, nice. Some brief highlights:


I had my ten year reunion. That is a topic that I will cover, just not tonight.


We caught a Nickelback concert. And when I say we I mean Ronnie, myself, AND THE BABIES! Now I know that you are shaking your head," Taking babies to a night time rock concert! What were they thinking?" Well it was not as bad as it sounds. It was outdoors, and we had a great spot on the lawn WAAAAAAY in the back so as to stay out of the way of drunks. The babies LOVE Nickelback. Probably next to Lady Gaga their favorite music. They start headbanging. And before you start on that, my mother bought them the tickets. Yes. My mother bought my one and two year old babies tickets for easter. We were merely the escorts. Most people there were very cool, only a few people looked at us like we werte crazy and only one actually said that we had "daycare issues". Mind you she didn't think that I could hear her but I did. Sigh.


We also just spent alot of time relaxing in the yard, and hanging by the pool. Did I say we,? I meant the babies. Most of the time I spent waving good-bye to the sunshine as I headed off to work. Living in the Great NW our sunshine appears slightly later than sunrise, usually sometime around early afternoon.


Moving on to the present, I recently complained about the lack of excitement in my life.


Critical mistake.


Within one week of the comment that would come back to bite me in the butt we are being evicted. Long story short we have been living with Ronnie's parents and it has been an expirience. Not great not awful, although there have been moments of agony. Part of the house is suffering from dry rot, thus causing a double door needing to be replaced. When we contacted the owner of the house, he in turn blamed our dogs (?!?!?) and said that either the dogs go and we pay $400 dollars more a month, or we, and I quote " get the f*%# out". Now, I have never been a property owner, but that is bad PR. Plus when someone threatens you like that, even a mild mannered(snort), even tempered (out right laugh), sane woman can turn into a mama bear when her cubs safety (in this case home) is threatened. I did control myself, and not suggest what I thought that he could do with himself, I said, ok. "So we move." And left it at that. An hour later, after I put the babies in bed


I FREAKED OUT!


I mean, we just got here. We have no savings, and this was SO not in the plans until after new years. But I am simply trying to look at this as a positive thing. We will probably be getting our own house, we even have a couple that we are looking at. Plus odds are likely that we will be moving closer to our works, so less gas.
I do need to give MAJOR props to my mother in law, and brother in law who stood up to the MAJOR BUTTHEAD (strong language I know)that we rent from and saying we will not throw our family out on the street. In the end I suspect that they will not only have lost this great house, but they will also be losing a friend (the wife of BUTTHEAD). Big round of aplause. Thank you so much! I am sorry that you have to do this, and I will not forget.


So here we are. Moving. Somewhere. In thirty days. I am going out on a limb and putting my faith in Jesus. I know that he is putting us a path that he wants us to be on. And I am trusting you.


This chapter is ending (in more than one way) and I am ready to start the next.


Where ever it might be.
