It has flown!

Time - what happened to it? It's been almost two months since I last wrote and it seems like yesterday that I wrote it, but this year has just flown also!
So what's happened - well I quit my job in Alex with no job in my future and the Wednesday before I went to being a house-wife (which I was totally looking forward to if I wasn't so concerned with money), I get offered a job with a Cu in BR. So I started immediately - no really the following Monday - which was crazy, should have taken a week or so off but whatever. I think I'm finally getting settled, but it's been a change. My hours are longer, my commute is horrible (Thanksgiving Eve - 1.5 hrs to get home when normally it's like 30 minutes/15 on a great day). Still trying to find a routine between the extra hour at my full time job, 30 minute commute, apartment living which means dogs to the park, doing my paper job (yep kept that because it should be easy money) and doing work around the house. Seriously -- how to mom's do this - like mine who is freakin awesome to work full time, raise three kids, clean the house and still have a hot meal on the table for us and dad. It's ridiculous! I can't seem to figure it out.
Got an early Christmas gift though - a BREAD MACHINE! and I've been loving it and I think Hoss has too (and according to him so have the pups). Sandy just celebrated her 4 year with us and birthday. My little puppy is growing up. I miss that small little weed.
We've kind of started house hunting. We have an idea of the area we want to live in so it will just be a matter of time - finding out what is going to happen to our house in Alex and where Hoss will be working.
So I'm settling in and Hoss is adjusting to not being a batchelor anymore :)

Day 1, 11 to go

Well it's official. I quit my job. In two weeks, I'll be jobless but happy. I'll finally be with my hubby and pups after three? four months? It's time, job or no job.
So I'll finally be leaving my parents' home and making it BR for good. Not leaving Sunday to come back to P-ville with my heart breaking. And I'm freaking excited! I can handle being a house-wife... surely... can't be that hard with no babies just puppies who have cages. I know how to clean, I just don't like to but I can handle a tiny apartment. And cooking - sure I can figure it out again.
*sigh* It will be just good to be home. Now to make the next 11 days, fly (though I only have 8 days of work assuming I have no job interview before that)

They are coming

The tears are finally setting in. I've been out of my home for a few weeks now and moved into my parents for the time being and it's just now hitting me. I've spent the last 4 days with my family (Hoss and the babies) and in two I leave to go back home and it hurts. I've been by my now house (because my home is elsewhere) and it's just not the same. I see things that makes me wish, we would have sold it so I wouldn't have to see it again.
I just had my 29th birthday, thankfully with my family, but sadly no one else. And I feel like I'm leaving on Wednesday like a thief in the night because I won't get to see Hoss before I leave.
I'm ready to be back with everyone and now trying to figure out if we can in fact survive on 1.5 incomes and let me move down here and just do paper work until I find a local job.
And yes things have been changing as they always do. Hoss had to get a new car - 2012 Chrysler 200 :) Mom and I are working hard on our hobby, soon to become a real business. But honestly, even my birthday meant nothing to me because it's fleeting and after 7 days, I would have to go back to my reality. Which is this: stuck at a job that I love, but need to leave with my boss leaving, a new temp that won't listen to me, a new temp that I have yet to meet, one co-worker rightfully getting "promoted" to manager and the other rightfully getting "promoted" to my job (well most of it). I feel a little useless, among other things.
Had an interview on Thursday which started my downness. It just didn't feel like it went all that well and then nothing happened for my day, shopping on Saturday wasn't fun, and then it was the downhill of my vacation.
Plus side was Saturday night was a blast but even that was fleeting.
Yep, I'm Debby Downer right now
