The Pig Pen

I'm the last person I thought would ever create a blog. It's my lame attempt to give my family and friends a means of keeping up with my goings on and those of my kids. This way, I can prove I haven't fallen off the earth and that I do think of you all often.. even if I don't show it. Here goes!

Searching for my end of the rainbow



Wow.. I feel really swamped lately. Hence why my posting had gotten behind. I feel my time is just as short, or shorter, as when I was in school. My job has crazy and long hours, that often run over. I had a very frustrating day today. Glad it is over. I am suffering from severe "mommy guilt" as well. Which helps me know that I'm not a totally sucky parent. I am away from home a lot, which leaves Michaela picking up the slack. Both of which aren't ok. I'm not really sure how long I can keep up this pace. I just know that I need more balance than I have right now.

I haven't chatted to my buddy, Matt K, in FOREVER!! I miss you man!!! I sure hope you and the family are well!

My friend Leah's apartment building was on fire last night. A fellow co-worker lives in the same building. Leah's apartment is in tact, though she is not allowed there until at least Monday. Surely it's smoke damaged etc.. My co-worker, Nick, lost everything. Thankfully they are ok...

Today is my friend, Kim's, bday. Which I forgot. I suck. Did see her tonight while we were having dinner with Leah and others. So I at least got to buy her a piece of cake! HAPPY BDAY KIMMY! I Love you!

I submitted my rental termination notice yesterday. Now I really got a flame under my ass as we don't have a place to go to yet! This place is just done. I'm done. It's too expensive, too small, too crowded and the neighbors all have too many cars (which congest the parking area out front). Todd and I are again discussing reducing the distance between us. Another thing I am done with! All this running back and forth and missing him terribly the rest of the time. I will keep you abreast of where we end up! As much as I hate moving, I'm ready for a new environment.

    Reading this seems like the 10 second tidy of your emotions! I kinda figured things were crazy in your life since you haven't been posting or online in a long time. I truly hope you find that balance in your life soon before ya go nuts. I have to say, I have a lot of respect for the sacrifices you make for your family. I have no doubt that you are an inspiration to all three children.

    Take care Traci and hopefully we can chat again soon! There is lots of catching up to do! :-)

    Bye 4 now.
