Moving again

On the move again Just can't wait to be on the move again...

Jason is moving. No not out of our house but out of his office. His year lease is up and since he hates to work in the office we gave it up and he is moving his office home, where will put all that office stuff who knows. We already have an office at home complete with a computer, a fax/printer and lots of shelves. What I don't know is where were going to put the computer, fax/printers, desks and filing cabinets from his office. Maybe its time to build on.

It's not the regular office stuff that has me concerned as much as the irregular stuff. You see in Jason's line of work they have to do a lot of printing, stuff like city plans and blue prints or plats as there called. With this type of printing you need really big printers or plotters as there called there big ugly and since they have processors like computers and because Jason's is really old it temp. sensitive so its not like we can stick it in the garage because it doesn't like the cold.

Its just temporary, hopefully. Jason wants to move in with an Engineer in Vernal he works a lot with, while I want him to work closer to home, an office here in town would be nice (this is too close to home). Will have to wait till May when there suppose to move into there new office to find out who wins.

Happy Anniversary

I know its been a while and I'm getting as bad as my brothers so here's the update.

Today is the big anniversary, yahoo. Its been 13 years since Jason and I said "I do". It doesn't seem possible to me and as most anniversary's do, I tend to think back to the beginning. Jason was just 19 when we were married and some people in the world today would be shocked by how young he was, but he has always been and still is a good husband and daddy to us. I'm sure at times its been rough on him to have to support me and the kids but he never complains. He has always wanted me to do what makes me happy whether that's staying home with the kids or working. I will always wonder how I was so lucky as to be the one to marry such a wonderful man.

As for what we are doing to celebrate we are going to Terabithia tonight with the kids

Happy Valintine's Day to all!

Jason and I don't really celebrate Valentines Day, and to be honest we never really have. We tell each other and our kids we love them every day, so it wouldn't be any different then any other day, anyway. As for Jason and brings me flowers he does that all year long. Jason and I did go out to dinner though. It wasn't planned or anything we were just out and it was dinner time.

This Valentine's Day was different though I had to spend all day planning an activity for my Achievement days girls, it was fun. I baked 26 heart shaped cookies and let the girls do the decorating. They seemed to be having a contest to see how much candy they could get to stick to the cookies. They did one for there mothers and one for themselves and made a huge mess of the churches kitchen. But they all had a good time, I hope.

So that's our Valentines, not much to it huh.

Our big celebration, the one that I look forward to every year, will come in another 2 weeks! We have it all planned out and I am so Excited!

But that's all for know, its been a very long day, and I'm on my way to bed.

Midnight..

Some time in early December on a peaceful Sunday morning. My family and I were on are way to church. We were early as we usually are and there were but a few cars in the parking lot. As we left the car and headed into the building the quiet of the morning (after all it was 9 am) was pierced my an insistent and desperate cry, MEOW MEOW MEOW. So I with great concern head of to find the noise and to my distress I found in the engine well of a car a tiny little kitten. This poor desperate little kitten was black as night and couldn't have been more then 8 weeks old if that. As I pulled the poor thing from its warm but dangerous perch inside the car it clung to me and I wondered where this poor thing had come from. the car it was insides licence said that it was from vernal over 15 miles away. I thought there is no way it came from Vernal. I knew it had to be from close by. I had no time to find the owner at that moment church was to start soon, so we stowed the kitten in our car for safe keeping.

After church we took the kitten home it was cold and hungry and had a small scrape on its chin. After we feed it Jason looked it over carefully and decided that the poor thing had been kicked out either by its mom or the owner (that kind of thing happens alot in small towns). Jason and I decided that we could keep it and named it midnight the same as the cat Jason had growing up. He has been a wonderful addition and everyone loves him (even fickle Cinder).

The reason I'm bringing up this story, or the reason I was even thinking about it is that poor little midnight isn't so little anymore. He is know the size of a normal cat. With normal cat tendencies, ie. scratching and running around at all hours of the night. So as he is a boy and to avoid any other tendencies we had him fixed and declawed this week. Its so sad when there done and they come home and they don't even want to stand on those little paws because they're hurting. But its what has to be done if they want to live with me. He will now be able to be a happy addition to our family.

RENT VS OWN

I'll my life I have wanted to own my own home. How wonderful it would be to own our own home. I mean just think of the possibilities. You could hang a picture anywhere you wanted, (and if your like me put as many holes in the wall to hang said picture) you can tear down the ugly paneling or put up ugly paneling, whichever you wanted. I was always so excited about the possibilities. Dreaming of what it would look like how many rooms or bathrooms it would have. It was one of my favorite things to dream about, and even though I now have a home of my own I still like to dream and plan the next home of my dreams.

But I digress with all my dreaming I thought owning would be this wonderful magical thing. That nothing would ever go wrong, and we would always have the money to make the improvements that we wanted to. Now that the wool has been pulled out from in front of me I'm starting to think that renting is better. After all if the pipes brake or the dishwasher stops running all you have to do is call the landlady and she has to find someone to fix it. Or when I'm tired of looking at the same four walls day in and day out I can pick up a paper and dream of moving somewhere else.

So I guess what I'm saying is that you should be happy with what you have because the grass ain't always greener on the other side.
