I am here!

I know, I have been so quiet and blog-neglecting! (However I must point out, everyone else is too!)

I have been sick... crazy sick. I can't stay well. I have colds, I have sinus infections, I have ear infections, I have the flu, my tonsils get all swollen and icky, then I'm back with colds again. I just can't stay well. I have NO idea what is going on, but I am SO DAMN TIRED OF BEING SICK! Someone please sell me an immune system. Maybe I need more vitamin C or something, I don't know. But I have been sick for months, and I am bone weary from it.

At work I have a very good friend, whose company makes going to work worth it, Jen. You know, everyone has someone like that at their job (or they should!) So last Thursday Jen got laid off. Which was drama, because the company is only 5 people big - - now 4 people. And it was devastating, because I miss her and now I hate going to work and she's not there, and it's no fun and it's lonely.

Beyond that, going down one tech, my work hours are crazy now. I was originally hired at about 30 hours a week. I dropped until last month I was working 15 - 20 hours a week. This week, with Jen gone? I worked every day 8 - 4:30 with no lunch break at all, and now they are talking about adding in staff meetings on our day off as well. Yay. I do not want to complain, when so many people are looking for work, but it has been a really rough transition for me and for the whole family trying to adjust to me being so full on.

In better news, the girls are OK, Pete is OK, and the snow is melting. We are hanging out for spring. It cannot come quickly enough!

Hang in there my friend. Spring is right around the corner and I will be looking to you this year as my little one and I grow our first garden!

Stay strong and feel better soon.
