Good Morning! It's been awhile. Sorry.

Anyway, here I am, already 4 days into the new year and haven't written yet. Kids go back to school on the 6th, and my first day is the 8th. i am worried about school starting up again. I know I can do it, but after what my practicum teacher said, I worry, am I doing the right thing? Should I be bothering? Is this right for me? Ok, have to get away from negative thoughts here!!!!!

We all made out pretty well for Christmas. Kids got lots, my family went overboard again, but I can't argue with that when it's for me and my kids. I went a little overboard too, but it wasn't too bad.

On New Years Eve Tom had to work and got home with only 20 minutes to spare. But of course James had been fussing since 10:30 and Thomas had just fallen asleep...because he had taken a REALLY long nap! Don't know what James' problem was, but Tom got him to sleep with 2 minutes to spare. And of course Sher called :D And we rung in the new year together! Then proceeded to watch South Park and the South Park movie until 3am. Watching TV together on the phone, sigh, it's one way to be together:(. Soon, I know, but it doesn't make it easier. Ok, I'm supposed to be getting happpier here, not more depressed.

Had a pretty cool monkey chat session the other night. Everyone was naked and on cam. Ok, not everyone, one didn't have a cam, but they were naked. Tom and I were on together, and he even got naked. We had fun. Diva was horny, me too, we were all drinking, except Luvluv (she wasn't naked either-party pooper) It led to some pretty good sex afterward too. >:) That's always good.

We went to the mall yesterday and picked up my Christmas present ring, it was back from being sized. It looks beautiful on my hand. Here is a picture of it :
<"MY RING :D"> This link worked for me, I hope it works for you too. We had a really nice time, even if the kids were with us. We went to EB and bought some games for the Playstation2 (Kingdom Heart) and the Gamecube (Muppet Party Cruise). We played the Muppet game until 2:30, it was really fun! Kinda challenging too. We played until Tom finally won a game, lol. I think we played 4 or 5 games total. It was really fun, I can't wait to play with Tony and Sherrie.

Speaking of T & S, they need to know: We turned on the Gamecube last night and MarioParty 5 was in it. We don't know which kid did it, we haven't looked at it, not even the book, but someone opened it and put it in. Probably one of the girls, Liz denies it, will have to ask De. So it is opened, but neither Tom nor I have even looked at it. Swear. We took it out and put it back in the package, NO ONE WILL PLAY UNTIL WE CAN PLAY TOGETHER!

The house is still a mess, but getting better. The boys room is almost back together. The bunkbeds look really good, but we still need to fix the ladder, they gave us the wrong one for this bed, so we are going to put hooks on it to make it work. Here is a picture: <"BOYS BEDS"> The only differences are: the ladder and there are no casters on ours. It's a birch bed and now that James has gotten used to it, the boys are doing great! Again, this link worked for me, let me know if it doesn't for you.

Tom and I have been sleeping way too late while I've been on vacation from school. It's gonna be really hard to get back in the swing of things when I go back. I think one or the other, or sometimes both has been up before noon yet. Yesterday he let me sleep yet, today I'm letting him sleep late. When De was here and got up and played with the boys, we both slept late. The problem is the boys are getting up at 8:30, 9 and we aren't gettig out of bed until 10, or later, and the other one sleeps while the one who got up cleans up the mess they have made. Ah the price of a decent nights sleep.

And one more link for Diva, who couldn't see my hair color in the cam the other night, because my cam colors aren't quite right: True Red. So there it is for ya diva, you like?
