Day 3 of Gratitude-Plus A Few New Pieces of Me



Today I am thankful for my Job and my husbands Job. There are alot of people right now that are still struggling to find a job. I am happy that we both have one to go to in the morning. Although I do wish the people I worked with were a bit nicer I manange to come every week for that pay check.

I took a test last night and it did come out negative which suprised me because I still am not on my period and today would make me exactly 5 days late which is unusal for me. I'm still hoping the test came out wrong....and I am still under direct order not to be moving anything while I am packing and moving during this week and next. We have one more week until we get into our new place and I have to say I am really ready at first I was so sad but these past couple of nights I have not been sleeping good in our room and just ready to be some place new. I think I am going to enjoy the convience care free living of apt living. The new place does have an upstairs which will take some getting used to but it does have two bathrooms that I am so happy to have one in my bedroom. Me and Hubs room have a really nice balconey with a sliding door in our room which will be nice for us. I like the idea of going upstairs to get away when I need to....the only thing that really bothers me ALOT is fire! We  had a house fire and I was scared so much from it I refused to ever live in an upstairs but when it came around I really didn't have much choice.So looks like I gotta get rid of my fear.... Moving is probably going to be simple because we are throwing away most stuff and taking nothing. This next school year I am going to dig into redorating my house and all my hand me down furniture is getting tossed now. We might be sitting on table chairs for awhile but in time its gonna look great. I already have the ideas that I want for each room and the colors! For me there is nothing better than my house. I make it the way I want it for me to feel comfortable cause when I come home from work I want to come home and relax in a nice house. There is nothing better.....Peixin is going to be leaving next week and me and jose are taking off of work to drive her to the Houston Airport. Jose has really gotten attached to Peixin and doesn't want her to go. I think he is going to miss her alot. He asked me this morning how I felt about it and if I was going to be okay and by looking at his face I kinda knew he was talking about himself lol. It's going to be alittle depressing cause it's going to be lonely and quite with her gone. But I told him we really needed the break after such a ruff 1/2 of a year and with him working at a good job now I can really use this summer to relax and recharge the batteries. I have SO many projects that I never got around to doing to keep me busy this summer and with work being slow durning these months its really my time that I can do alot around the house. I have some art work that I really want to get up in my room or something and I really dont know how I am going to do that just yet and I really have some blankets that I want to sew together for Nathan and Jose so we will see. I also have a random list of DVD's and VHS ( yes I still love VHS) and books that I want to get from Amazon that I never got so I can make a personal little library for myself! I mean that is just some of the things I want to do for myself this summer and they are simple things that would just make my life nice I think. I have also found some really interesting blogs on here but most I already notice say they put it on priviate because sometimes people leave rude comments I guess. I was thinking maybe I would not make mine private so I can maybe meet some other ladies like me out there but I really don't want to deal with the hassle of rude comments and stupid people. However I was able to add a couple of pages that I thought for me was really interesting. I added two Italian ladies that post a new authentic dish everyday. I have to translate the recipes but the picutres are amazing and I love all the different varities of coffee breads, cookies and desserts. I really can't wait to be in the new place cause I'm gonna get down with it in the kitchen.  I think it would give me peace inside to know something about where my roots are, even though I am half and we are Italian American lol Another page I found was a lady who draws these wonderful drawlings of Sci-fi animations. Although I am really not into that kind of thing I love the art, the colors and all she has done and I praise anyone for doing what they love. I also came across unique photography and so much more things.

I'm sorry about the test being negative..I know that heart breaking feeling every time. I always keep you in my prayers that you will get the gift of motherhood, because I know you will make a great mom.
That sucks about Piexin leaving, but it will give you guys some "alone" time..and some time to focus on Natalie and Jose. You can make it your goal to do alot to your new apartment during the summer to pass time until she comes home, then you can surprise her with all the changes. :)
