Birthday Girl

Hey everyone,

Alicia turns two on Sunday so we will be celebrating.

Well the bid went well and I had a choice of two shifts that I wanted one was working primarily with baggage and the other one was working with the passengers. I chose working with the passengers because I am a people person and I love to talk to the passengers. I have met some very interesting people.

So starting April 12th I will be working from 4am till 9 am. It is a busy time at the airport so i will be moving constantly. I will definitely have to have an early bedtime. I will only be working Sat, Sun, Mon, & Tue. Days off Wed, Thurs, & Fri.

The kids are all doing well.

Love ya all,

Rebecca

Jim will be done with WOW on February 27th.(Pray for him)

I have lost 6 inches and am loving how I feel after I go workout. Revitalized and rejuvenated!!! I bid at work next week so hopefully I get the shift that I want. I have a supervisor that I cannot stand and I can't wait to get away from him.

So life can be so crazy and yet when I find myself riding in the car with only one of my children I find the best thing to do is to ask unusual questions. Tonight Teresa had a doctors appointment and I ask her what she is most worried about. She said getting to school on time. I was shocked. We are usually early getting to school and I never would have thought that she was worried about it. Learning what is going on in their heads is so eye opening.
I have decided that I am going to compose a list of questions to ask my kids every once in awhile so that I can understand them and they know that I am interested in them. So now I ask everyone to send me suggested questions to ask. I will post my final list when I decide which questions are most valuable to me.
Thanks

I'm back!!!

Whew so much going on. Not stressful just busy as usual. Today was a school holiday so of course the house looks horrible. I can catch up tomorrow though. Other than that we have an assortment of colds at our house. I rearranged furniture so now there is more room in the Living room. I made koolaid pops for my kids and they are in love with them.
I have decided that I am a loner in many ways. I have lots of friends some best friends that I would tell anything to but I think that many people do not really know as much about me as they think they do. I think that the facade that I feel is expected of me is most of the time too much work.
Iam richly blessed however for having those people in my life that I can be my true self with. The people that know about my faults and insecurities. So to them Thank you and please always be there for me.

Starting again

Well monday is a new week and time to work harder to change bad habits and create new ones. I really had today on track. I got the cleaning done that I wanted to do. I even made brownies with my son and played games with him. It has been a good day. I feel successful I wen walking and went to the gym. Hopefully I can keep up this success as I head into the week. Wish me luck and success as I go through the week.
