Hey guys!!! Sorry for my long absence but work has been taking alot of my time away from my site, and renovating my house has been physically draining. I’m not saying I’m doing ALL the work. My boyfriend does most of the hard labor, but to be active around the house the way I am is very tiring. I just can’t wait to have everything done… the walls need spackling and paint, the floors needs to be done, the attic needs more work… seems like light work, but it’s going to take a while until the house is in living condition. It’s not easy especially if we’re doing all this on our own.

Since my last post four months ago, my kids came back from Indonesia safe and sound. They loved it there. My parents were thinking  about going back next year and I might join them this time, but I don’t know if my boss allows it; I can’t have a 2 week vacation back to back. I might just have a week of unpaid vacation. I dunno how it’ll work out. We’ll see.

Since then my kids and I moved in with my boyfriend in his current home in South Jersey while we work on the house. My sister moved too with her boyfriend on the West Coast. She came to visit for Thanksgiving with her boyfriend and they announced that they are expecting. I’m a mom, a daughter, a sister, now I’m gonna be an aunt!!! I’m so excited.

Oh… and I stopped smoking since October. I feel so much better and I smell good too. So whenever I smell smoke, I ask myself “Ewww… was that what I was breathing in? It smells GROSS!!! I can’t believe I used to smoke. Blegh!!!” I’m one step closer to being healthy. This coming year, I want to commit myself to lose weight, at least 5 pounds. I’m gonna need a plan. If I have one, I’ll post it hear.

So that basically sums it up. I have some hauling I want to post soon so I can’t wait for that. But before I go, I want to show you my new haircut. Let me know how you like.
