Wow its been so long since I got on here…I am hoping things will start to settle down now….so much has happened. Lets see if I can get it all down.
My honey bear rented us a chalet in Girdwood to celebrate our 10th anniversary…it was gorgeous it had a hottub outside and you could see the mountain..he made me steak for dinner and I didn’t have to lift a finger….he spoiled me rotten! Of course he knows he looks hot in the kitchen, thats how he got me to marry him in the first place, he cooked me a strogonoff sandwich in his frightfully unequiped kitchen that prompted me to buy him kitchen stuff for christmas while we were dating….oh I am drifting sorry. As I was soaking in the jacuzzi tub Saturday morning, he told me the news that one of our friends had passed away in his sleep. He was 33 and has a wife and 3 kids. Boy does that hit you hard! My sweet little perfect world where the bigest problem I have is keeping my house clean and remembering homework and lunchpacking…how dare me stress over such stupid things….that is nothing in this otherworld where people lose husbands, fathers, sons, people hurt survive or die in natural disasters….this ugly world that I dont want to see…I want back in my perfect one…please.
Of course I know I am being unrealistic as usual for me. My heart is hurting for his family, I now fear losing family and friends I look at my kids differently…I want them taken care of if something happens to me. These are things I tried for all my life to avoid thinking about. I guess its time for me to grow up.
Okay so now you know why its been so crazy, I also resigned from my previous job and started a new one yesterday…Thank you Bonnie for all your help in my transition, I couldn’t have done it without your encouragment and faith in me..really…And My baby boy started a new school and turned 7 and Diva started preschool!!! Boy no wonder my emotions are so raw right now. Its been hard. They both love their schools and JJ has been reading to her at night, mostly having to yank the book back from her because the Diva wants to read it herself…boy is that little redhead something else…she wants everything her way (wonder where that came from?) But she is so cute when brother leaves in the morning to catch the bus, she runs and throws her arms around him and kisses him goodbye and says “mishue” (miss you). Oh and I forgot JJ and I are doing karate, he looked so tiny out there with all the big kids and its gonna take some hard practice and hopefully it will get my butt in better shape.
So tomorrow is JJ’s birthday party lucky us its at MickyD’s you know I hate the food there, I will eat later I guess. Anyway I have yucky chores to do so I better get to them while Diva is asleep…
to get these up here so here they are Yes, it was Sunday evening so six days to post is terrible sorry for the wait. 
Isn’t it perfect! JJ just wanted a orange star and the rest was their creativity. Thank you girls, the cake was perfect.
Lots of presents!
auntie bonnie gets love from Diva. We had lots of fun and I didnt have to clean my house!
