I know, I know. I've failed miserably at blogging.
Today is the end of my second full month of work. I'm enjoying it more than I expected to, to be honest. There are still many days when I don't want to get up and get dressed, or when I want to be with the kids instead of at work, but mostly I enjoy it. The work isn't hard, the people are nice, and I have plenty of time for Facebook.
I have, however, forgotten my blogger password and have to blog on my phone where the password is saved. That's my excuse for the delay.
I don't have much today. J lost his first tooth on Sunday. He pulled it out all by himself! I was so proud.
I won't make any promises, but I'll try to get on here later and post more soon.
A lot about me, a little about my kids, some more about my husband. Day-to-day life, written down and reflected upon. I'm sometimes ironic, often snarky, and typically sarcastic. I say what I mean, and I rarely pull any punches. I try to be as up-front and honest as I possibly can.

My son, the fish
J has been taking swim lessons, and he LOVES them! He has learned so much and has such a good time. One of the benefits of my job is a membership at the university's rec center and discounts on lesson fees. I'll confess, I enjoy sitting here and ogling the college-age lifeguards.
In other news, one of J's best friends has been diagnosed with ALL leukemia. He is going to need a bone marrow transplant. I urge and beg you to register to become a marrow donor. It's easy, painless and free.
My mother-in-law is still fighting her cancer. It has been very responsive to the chemo, and all the tumors have shrunk. Her attitude, however, continues to worsen. I doubt J and I go over there this week. I no longer have the patience to be around her and hold my tongue.
I have decided to give up my iPhone. This is a hard decision for me, but one I believe I need to make. I will keep it and use it as an iPod touch, but my phone will be a blackberry. (I know, I know). I can't give up the smartphone all together, but if I have a crackberry D and I can share chargers. And it let's me use my iPod again, like in the car. Plus, and this is the big part, it's cheaper.
Oh - by the way, J started first grade. Today was his first full day. Today was also C's first full day of seventh grade, and the first day of riding the bus to school. I feel so old! To make things even worse, my niece started high school today. Yikes!!!!
