After laying on the couch for most of today in my PJ’s with the covers over my head I am beginning to move beyond my pity party and am trying to take a proactive approach to getting this all figured out. Something else they suggested today was to count calories to attain my weight gain […]

I am home from the Doc…
I am home from the doc and my arm is sore from having blood drawn. I did a urine test and it came back negative for the pregnancy hormone. I also got to be a “training” patient today as my regular doc was being shadowed. Don’t worry they asked for consent and since I have […]

It is only 6am, let me sleep!
My cats are so annoying sometimes, Mr. guy especially! He is a control freak and will have litle temper tantrums if life does not follow the routine HE is used to. N did not come home last night, that is a routine disruption. N usually gets up at about 6 or 7 am everyday and […]
An out of state assignment.. Sigh.
N has been sent on an out of state work assignment to Colorado City to cover the news on the polygamists out there. After the police raid in Texas every news station around here seems to be covering polygamy right now… So I’ll be watching for his news story tonight and tomorrow to see what […]
What can you do about an emotionally draining person?
Do you notice feeling drained, trampled or just worn out after an encounter with an acquaintance or loved one? Maybe this person only wants to have interactions with you when they need support or maybe they tend to unload on you all the time. How do you distinguish between someone going through a “rough patch” […]
Persistence often pays off..
This is a lesson that is very apparent in my file right now. I try to teach my students that perseverance and persistence will lead you to great things. Often times we fell the urge to give up right before we are about to experience success. Those who succeed are often those who kept trying […]
Let the madness begin!
Well, I am excited and a bit frazzled all at the same time! It’s interesting how that works huh? Today I have after school practice with my winterguard students, during the practice we are heading over to the local charter school to do a dress rehearsal for their talent show (that we are performing in […]
Brace yourselves, a new look is on the way.
Since I am pulling my hair out with techie stuff right now anyway I figured I should just take care of my blog at the same time. I get bored easily so I want to have all my sidebar crap in widgets that I can arrange easily and that wont be lost when I change […]
Been a busy gal!
Today I have updated 3 WordPress blogs with the newest (as of today) version of WordPress: 2.5. The administration panel is crazy differnt from previous versions so that is taking me some getting used to. All in all it seems like they added lots of cool features. Interestingly enough out of the 3 blogs I […]

Did we conceive? My NFP-FAM charting and ovulation.
Oh boy, looks like our chances for getting pregnant were good back on Monday & Tuesday. Using natural family planing/ the fertility awareness method I was just able to confirm past ovulation that was within a 1 day window from the time of intercourse. Now I just need to wait 2 weeks before I can […]

Jerry is a real estate agent/ expert remodeler here in Arizona who is my mothers partner/ mate. They bought an older home out in New River, that […]
I am a sucky pet owner :-(
Now that N’s work schedule has changed I am dropping him off at work in the morning and we usually take our dog on the car rides with us. Well today we got home from dropping N off at work, my hands we full of crap and I was trying to get Dixie out of […]
We already got a few bites on the job search!
Today several employers responded to N after he sent out several applications yesterday. This is a great sign for the job search but it also brings up a new technical challenge for me! One of the employers asked if he had some online footage they could take a look at, sort of a resume tape. […]

The job search begins!
The resume tape is just a bout done, there are about 4 months left on his contract and the job search is under way! Job searching can be a tedious and stressful time for anyone. You sift through the possibilities, talk yourself out of the ones you feel are unachievable and then you pursue the […]

The trusted travels enewsletter reminds me of: Adventures of traveling the pacific coast highway- Pt. 3- Trying to get to San Francisco
We were short on cash and trying to enjoy a well deserved vacation away from the Arizona heat. We decided upon or destination and compiled a long list of things to do in San Francisco once we arrived (like visiting fisherman’s wharf, Alcatraz and the golden gate bridge).
