I started my day on a good healthy note.........I went for a walk with the boys, just a little around the nieghborhood. I then came home to clean up from last night,did a load of laundry and put Nathan down for an early nap. William fell asleep on the couch so it was then I decided to nap myself. Maybe I should make that walk a daily thing as today has been great for my pregnant body and wonderful for my state of mind.

D and I will be going to the new house tomorrow to prepare for the actual move. This house is so damn big,I am hoping what we own will fit without alot of extre echo space. I'm just happy to be moving ahead for once.

I still have tons of packing to get done,it's so hard to decide what can be packed now and what we will need in the meantime to keep handy. I never know what I will need with each passing day.

I am sick of all the construction that is going on on most of our shortcut streets here...last night I went to the store and it was like driving through a maze just to get to the next light. I will be happy to get away from all of it.

And here comes the rain........it just started to storm. I am not looking forward to this years hurricane season....so scarry to think about....I think I heard that they expect at least 24 here in our area. It would be just my luck to move into our first home and it get wrecked by one of those evil storms.

I best get off this computer before the lightning starts up.....and get the dog off the back lanai.

I feel so out of wack today....only packed one box and that was just linens...a whole 5 minutes that took. It is rainy and blah outside....my boys have tested every nerve in my pregnant body and I am in dire need of a hot shower and some "me" time. I am making a pot roast for dinner and that seems to be my only look-forward-to event of my evening.

I am swollen everywhere, water retension sucks.

Our soon to be exlandlord decided to call here this morning to bark at me about D not finishing a job on our nieghbors apt. which pissed me off to no end due to the fact he saw D's hand wrapped up and was told he couldn't finish it yet but will be done ASAP.It's just some closet doors which if ya ask me the landlord should do himself.D is just too damn giving to ungrateful people....this guy is an ass. He KNOWS D is working and calls me to complain about shit...he is pissed that we took up our plants from the front flowerbed...which I explained we paid for and always intended to take with us when we moved,still he thought it rude...whatever asshole.I wonder if he is afraid to speak to D about these things since he makes an extra effort to call here while he's at work. Lame ass. So glad to be moving on and away from this BS.

Now that all that is off my chest...........I feel a little better....but the boys are screaming like crazy in the livingroom and I am at the point of eyeball poppage. I hope it gets easier as my night goes on.....is it just me or do toddler boys like to see their parents flip out, Nathan always giggles when I go bonkers and William....well he always asks"Where's Daddy?" Like daddy would be any more restraintive....most deff. the opposite. William has made bestfriends with all 4 corners of almost every room in the house lately....little Dennis that he is. Nathan has been playing follow-the-leader and taking on all Williams bad habbits.....I never knew just how stressfull raising two little boys could be. Oah how I hope this baby in my belly is another girl!!!

What a friggen stupid day today has been....I am constantly popping the querks out of my neck and counting to ten. The joys of motherhood. ~sigh

I will get a good nights sleep tonight and all will be refreshed tomorrow........hopefully not a rerun of today. I'm pooped. Gotta go throw in the veggies for dinner and get these goofballs to bath and bed.......

Today has been a relaxing,quiet, do nothing but lay around perfect day. I am grateful as I have needed a day of sanity. I am not stressed and that is not something I can say usually.

D got that idiot fired and is thrilled he no longer has to "babysit" this guy. He even got his brother in-law the job, they both are at the printshop right now.Just couldn't have worked out better as Matt (D's brother inlaw) just got here from Mass. and desperately needed work since D's sister just had the baby. Everything just seems to be falling into place lately...hope it sticks.

We went to do some cleaning up on the new house last night...not really much to do in the first place but I am anal about having a spick and span house.

 D and I talked about Sally and Matt moving in with us ....now this is a "humungo" issue for us as we totally growled at his parents when they hinted to us to take on the idea in the first place. We decided that it would be an unselfish and loving thing to do to help them get on their feet....not to mention we know how it is to live with parents and that they could be more at ease under our roof. Are we insane? I am not so sure if we are going to regret this or if we will come out of it feeling as though we did something meaningful, I hope it's the latter.We have yet to know if they will take us up on our offer. They will be paying out some money for rent and bills and Matt will be working with D every day,but we want them to get ahead so we won't be asking for much. They need to get themselves a car and find a place soon after.Again, are we insane! I am a like-my-privacy type of woman and I know I can wave goodbye to that if this happens....but I know it will be a great thing to do for someone else and it's only temporary so why the hell not do it.

We are going back to do some more work in the AM and plan to be there most of the day....I am so siked about getting to do the whole decorating thing. I am a southern gal and intend to have lots of  whickerish things throughout the house,and lots of plants,flowers and wood. This is a wonderful thing that is happening to us as D and I have only lived in apts. or triplexes, this house is just so exciting for us as a family. Now all I need is for my girls to be here permanantly,then all is right in my world.

I have to go to bed now,long ass day tomorrow....can't wait to scrub some toilets, lol.

17 more days to go till we make the move and I have yet to pack one damn thing. I am not looking forward to doing most of it by myslf as D is working as much overtime as he can and can't be here to help out with alot of it....~sigh

Upsetting story~ D came home last night from work klenching his right hand and I saw that it was all swollen out.....I had asked him what happened thinking he had hurt it on his press machine, he works as a pressman printing magazines and such, come to find out he got into a fight with his helper, who by the way is a drunkin idiot, D has had it out for this dumbass since day one. This guy took a 3 hour lunch yesterday, leaving D to work this huge ass machine alone while idiot was out getting sloppy drunk. D said he came into the shop slurring and couldn't stand up and thinking he was going to go right back to work, which is not only stupid to think in the first place but could cause someone to end up in the ER due to the size and function of this print machine. D told him to leave and that he was fired....idiot wasn't going for it and D decided to throw him around a bit....went to hit him and D's buddy Jason grabbed his arm and said "don't go to jail tonight D!" So D turned around and hit a 2 thousand pound stack of papers instead which brings me back to the swollen up painful right hand. The man couldn't put on deoderant this morning it is that messed up! I had to put it on for him and I said he must be nuts going to work today (he didn't HAVE to) but he is the man he is and went in and will be working a 13 hour shift. I am sure I will be pampering him tonight when he gets here. He is sooo crazy. He won't get fired for this ordeal, most likely he will get a pat on the back. I have been in awe as why they have not ditched this idiot before hand. He shows up drunk and drinks on the job.....shoulda canned his ass a long time ago, I think they put him under D knowing D wouldn't put up with this jerk and waited for D to knock his ass out. There is alot more to the whole fight scene but Ill be damned if I'm gonna relay all of it right now....D got the best of this idiot and didn't get a scratch on him but I can say idiot don't feel so well today...and won't be seen there again. Jerk.
