And here we go....

I'm not sure where this blog will take me, but I want to give acknowledgements the 2 ladies who inspired me want to do this...Thank you Michelle K and Jackie K. I love that you take time to write everyday or almost everyday. I feel so connected to you when I read and am hoping I have the same affect on you and others.  

Its Friday night and I have been child/husband free for over 24 hours now.  For those of you who know me, this is a very rare thing. Actually, this has never happened before. My very sweet husband suggested that he take Jack to the beach for a couple of days to see his friends who have rented a beach house. I was very apprehensive of this at first, but then I knew that this old mama could really use a break. But not much of a "relaxing" break I am getting. I finished a year long course and am now a certified transcriptionist, cleaned the house, got Jack and Kevin's Easter baskets ready, went to dinner with a dear friend of mine, and am trying to kick this nasty cold I have (since Monday).

Kevin and Jack feeding the ducks. I would like to think Jack is very sad without his mommy, but much to my surprise he is happy, sleeping very well, and eating plenty of mac n cheese. I guess this means only one thing. Father/son weekends need to happen more often!

As I sit here tonight with Ziki sleeping at my feet watching Oprah (not a very interesting episode I may add...maybe this is why I never watch), I wonder what I have to look forward to tomorrow, next week, and 8 weeks from now. Tomorrow I get to hug and kiss the 2 loves of my life. Next week I will be looking for a job. 8 weeks from now, I will be a mother of two. Let's just hope I can get rid of all this "cold" in my life before any of that happens.
