OH MY!! 3 updates in ONE WEEK!! *L* Can you stand it??? Well we are getting ready to buckle down for a big storm - figures it would be on a weekend when there really isn't any school or work - although I AM thinking if it's really bad Sunday I will only do part day.... We shall see...

Work is going ok - we have some "growing pains" again but hey what can ya do!!! I did find out this week that the other "day" girl has gotten a new job and won't be returning to our office from Kuwait and doesn't look like they are gonna fill her spot... I will miss her - she was a wonderful person to work with but man we were both twiddling thumbs in our a$$es some days due to lack of enough work!!! I am gonna sit w/boss on Monday and go over my plan for maternity which will have me out about 2.5 FULL weeks and then I work 3 hrs M-F and 7 hrs on Sunday bringing Ethen w/me since I will be nursing... Using that schedule I will get out daily to interact w/adults but still have plenty of time at home w/the kids AND I will only have to use the leave I have saved or will earn and not borrow a single hour.... Provided all stays well w/the pg that is... I will continue on that schedule thru the end of Aug and when the big boys go back to school full time I will go back to work full time and Ethen will stay home w/Daddy... I don't think boss will have a major problem with it at all but every one please please keep your fingers crossed....

Also keep those prayers and thoughts going for my friend Jennifer!! She got an HCG of 200++ which is good for the day or two after you late for AF!!! I am soo happy but let's keep going for her!!!

Now I wanted to share something I am TOTALLY DISGUSTED by!!!! I have a friend that I have been chatting w/for YEARS!! Literally 8+ yrs now since we "met" on the internet.... Her DH is an Army solider... He was sent to Kuwait for a yr late 2004 and for Xmas she sewed him a lovely handmade quilt and pillow... She boxed them up w/a few other little things and took them to the PO... Well she put alot of work into the quilt so she insured it for the price of the material basically - a mere 250.00... DH got the box but it looked odd... So he took pics and emailed them back - someone had opened her original box, cut off the cardboard w/the address, shipping labels, etc and taped them to a different/smaller box, put the other items in that box and sent it forward... They STOLE a quilt and pillow jsut cause it was insured for 250.00 and they thought they were getting something good I guess... I mean it was CLEARLY marked for a SOLDIER (his rank/name were in address) and ANYONE w/half a brain at the PO knows the codes for overseas address... How low and cruel and disgusting is that??? I feel soooo bad for them both.... I guess the moral of the story is don't insure things going to soldiers and be VERY careful about insuring other things you mail - you just don't know what low lifes are working in the background handling your mail!!!!!

Well I guess that's about it for now.... It's horribly cold outside, I think Dilen finally crashed and I am headed to bed!!! NIGHT ALL!!! Til next time....
