lazy sunday update...

One person I haven't talked about much would be my great friend Brandy that i love so much...This is a woman that has battled from the very low times of life to be one of the greatest people i have ever met. She picks me up when i am down...i can talk to her about anything without her judging me...she loves me unconditionally...and i love her more than she will ever know. She is one of those people that you would hand pick to be in your life because she is fun, hard working, and accepts you for who you are. The picture is about 2 months old and i wanted to do a post then but it totally skipped my mind. I LOVE YOU BRANDY!

now a little update of the family....

Zoe seems to be doing much better since surgery. For the first few days she was sleeping better but it seems like she just doesn't like to sleep. She is eating a little better and the bad behavior seems to have taken the back seat for now.

Zada is growing like a weed and learning lots of new things...and not all of them are good...but we will take the good with the bad. She is a Papaw's girl for sure! I have been trying to work with her on asking for things instead of pointing and screaming...but she is 18 months old and does what she wants!...so that is getting us no where at this point. We are going to try to start potty training and letting her discover the potty on her own so hopefully by the end of summer she will be out of diapers....then we will put Zoe in cloth diapers...i know it seems silly but i am pretty excited about it.

Tom is working tons...hoping that the company that he works for will soon be buying a heavy duty tow truck. Of course when he is off he enjoys to take over the TV for all the "manly" shows that me and the girls don't care for.

I have been working some overtime and enjoying that to some extent. Hopefully all the over time will come to an end now that we have hired a few new people at work to help cover the shifts. Besides that we have had some crazy people at the office here lately...a drunk that threw a beer bottle at the window, a young punk that spit on the window (guess he was too dumb to see there was glass there and it wasn't going to hit us), of course lots of mexican's that can't read or speak english and want to know why we don't hire a translator....ummm because prop #201 made english the language in the state of arizona...can you believe that!!! it is the US you dummies. And we finally figured it out at work...."Why does it take 6 mexicans to pick up a car from the police impound?"....one to drive there, one to speak spanish, one to translate, one to pay, one has the car titled in their name, and one has the drivers license to pick it up....sad but true.


now since i was tagged i have to list 10 things that make me happy...

1.my kids
2.my husband
3.my health
4.being able to take Zoe to the best Doctors in the state
5.driving home everyday with a mountain view
6.knowing my kids are safe everyday with my mom
7.my husband's bbq chicken (we had it last night...yummy!)
8.kisses from my babies
9.diet coke from sonic with real cherries in it
10.my great friends

these aren't in any order...except the first 3...

i love all of you...

Ahh...Friday...

Ahh...the weekend has finally came. This will not be a weekend of relaxation tho...the limbs from trimming the orange tree and the TALL weeds from out back all have to go to the dump. Plus all the other little things that have to be completed. Work has been totally hectic for the past few weeks...and honestly there is no reason for it...except one person that is a walking soap opera! But...anywho...

Tom, of course, has been working tons and taking care of lots of people in need! I have been working as usual and taking care of all the people that think it is MY fault that THEIR car go impounded! It is quite funny!

The girls are growing like weeds and learning new things each and everyday. Zada's newest thing is...when you tell her "No" she says "WHAT?" with her hand on her hip...Nana says she acts just like Me...i don't believe it. Zoe is doing much better...she has her moments but who doesn't. She is starting to eat better and try new things. Zada of course eats anything that you put in front of her (i am not complaining).

I will update again on sunday...i need to get back in the swing of things!

love to all of you!
