Change is a good thing.........RIGHT???????

OK. SO IT SEEMS LIKE EVERYTHING IS CHANGING RIGHT NOW. I AM TRYING REALLY HARD TO HAVE AN OPEN MIND ABOUT EVERYTHING AND KEEP MY HEAD UP BUT.......WHEN YOU ARE AS ROUTINE AS I AM, ITS A LITTLE DIFFICULT!!!!

FIRST OF ALL, MATT TOOK A NEW JOB. HE IS NOW WORKING AT A PLACE CALLED STINGER. THET WORK ON OIL RIGS AND IM NOT REALLY SURE WHAT ALL THEY DO. I THINK THAT THEY GO IN AND OPEN THE OIL HEADS, MAYBE? DONT HOLD ME TO THAT. IT IS GOING TO BE A BIG CHANGE WITH HIS NEW HOURS WHICH ARE NOT AT ALL SET IN STONE. HE CAN BE CALLED OUT AT ANY MOMENT AND CAN BE GONE FOR DAYS AT A TIME. THIS SHOULDNT HAPPEN TO MUCH BUT WILL HAPPEN FROM TIME TO TIME. I THINK, I KNOW, HE IS GOING TO BE SO MUCH HAPPIER WORKING OUTSIDE AND ACTUALLY SEEING DAYLIGHT. HE ABSOLUTELY DESPISED THIRD SHIFT AND WAS ALWAYS DREADING GOING TO WORK. THIS JOB HAS BETTER BENEFITS AND MORE MONEY SO HOPEFULLY HE LIKES IT.

SECOND, I AM LOSING MY SITTER!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU JESSICA! SHE HAS DECIDED TO BE A FULL TIME MOMMY AND FOCUS ON SCHOOL SO SHE IS NOT GOING TO KEEP KIDS ANYMORE. I COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND HER DECISION BUT IT IS REALLY HARD TO LOSE SUCH A GOOD SITTER THAT YOU ARE SO COMFORTABLE LEAVING YOUR CHILD WITH. AND MADDI ADORES HER. SO, I DONT KNOW WHAT I AM GOING TO DO THERE. THEY ARE OPENING A "KIDS ACADEMY" HERE IN ALMA AND MATT AND I ARE DISCUSSING IT. WE ARE BOTH TRYING REALLY HARD TO HAVE AN OPEN MIND ABOUT THE WHOLE DEAL AND I PRAY THAT IT WORKS OUT ONE WAY OR ANOTHER. AND I KNOW IT WILL. ITS JUST A LITTLE OVERWHELMING TO LEAVE YOUR KID WITH SOMEONE.

AND I AM DEBATING SCHOOL OR NO SCHOOL FOR FALL? I AM ALREADY REGISTERED BUT I AM REALLY SCARED OF TAKING ON CLASSES NOT HAVING ANY IDEA OF WHAT MATTS SCHEDULE IS GONNA BE LIKE. I REALLY WANNA FINISH BEFORE I AM 40 BUT DONT WANNA BE OVERWHELMED.

AND ALONG WITH THE BAD THERE IS GOOD........WE HAVE MOVEMENT!!!!!! MADISON ELIZABETH IS WALKING!!!!!!!! SHE HAS BEEN FOR ALMOST TWO WEEKS NOW AND I CANT BELIEVE I HAVENT POSTED ABOUT IT. OH WELL. SHE IS A PRO AT IT NOW! I THOUGHT THE DAY WAS NEVER GONNA COME!!! :)

WELL, IM OFF TO LAY IN BED AND WATCH CARDINAL BASEBALL! KEEP ME IN YOUR PRAYERS THAT EVERYTHING WORKS OUT!!!! GOOD NIGHT!
