Entry for October 03, 2006
So yesterday as I posted I realized that I really enjoy writing. I used to be so good at writing in my journal and getting thoughts out- however silly and sappy they are.
So I'm going to start blogging more. I'm going to try and blog daily just for me... if anyone enjoys reading it that's fine, but this is more for me and my thoughts and memories.
Last night we had the couple that is going to stay with the kids come over for dinner. I'm good friends with Sarah and we have playgroup together and everything, but our husbands had never meet each other since they are in a different ward than we are. We had a great time and really enjoyed having them over. Alex really took to Josh and I'm glad since he was a little apprehensive about us going on the trip. Josh is going to try and make sure he can get off of work early the wed we are gone so he can take Alex to cubscouts himself. There is the raingutter regatta (we didn't know about it until it was too late to change plans) that Alex and Rich are building the boat for and he wants to go with Alex to do that. If he can't we have Alex's friends dad that will come and pick him up- but then he'll have three boys to help out with the races.
Rich has been moved to a new position at work. It's a completely new position that has been created and he is solo and the only person in the company doing this. He is excited for this new job because it goes more in the direction of designing the computer systems and processes which is what he enjoys doing.
Ashley is getting to go home with a friend today after school. She is so excited. They live on the other side of our subdivision so she gets to get off of the bus with her and play for about an hour before the little girls mom will bring her home because the girls brother has a football game. Alex is a little upset that he isn't doing the same thing, but he hasn't gotten a phone number for me to talk to a parent of his friend that he has made on the bus.
I finally made it back to the Y to exercise. I had lots of little excuses keeping me away the past two weeks and really had noticed the mental and emotional difference I was feeling from not having that time to exercise and just have a break from taking care of the little kids.
