current events

Well, we have been in our new place for 2 months now, and we are pretty settled. I guess it is about time that I get back into blogging, both here and on my crafty blog. (that is if anyone still reads either)


We are loving our new place. I am loving the vaulted ceilings and the extra cupboard space and especially the garage! it is so great to have a place to do my furniture revamps. and I have been taking full advantage of that. I have several projects i need to post, but I have also been doing some simple fixes. i will try to get around to posting pictures, for those interested.

the boys are being their usual crazy selves. they both received bikes for Christmas and have been having a good time figuring them out. luckily our street is extremely quiet so they get to do a lot of practicing.

Bronson, who showed a lot of potty interest this past summer is now completely uninterested. he is totally unbribable too. it sucks. not sure what to do about it.

Logan turns 5 this June, so he can start school this fall. we are debating whether to have him start this year or next. have any of you dealt with that? what do you recommend? Steve and i both have august birthdays, we are just 5 days apart. but because of boundaries, i graduated a year ahead of him. i hated being the youngest, and he loved being the oldest. it is a hard thing for us to decide.

Steve just started his third semester of nursing school, just one more and he can get his RN's license. of course after that we still have about 274 years of school left before we will be completely done. ah well, progress is progress. Steve hasn't been able to find a job, and that is really tough, but we are still hoping and looking. part of the problem is that he needs either a Saturday only shift or a super flexible shift. his class schedule is just craa-aazy.

overall, things are good. we are broke, but happy! we also love visitors, so if you want to get away from the snow for a bit let us know, we would love to have you.
