Ruminating

As the holiday season is fast approaching (mine beginning with Blinda's birthday on Halloween.) I feel increasingly lonley. I have no one to snuggle with underneath the Christmas tree, unless I want to do it with a three year old. It's going to be hard to sit around the Thanksgiving table and see my brothers and sister here with their spouses and i'm here by myself. It's just hard, and no one that I know has ever been through this. They have no idea what it's like. No idea what so ever. I am not saying that I want my ex husband back, i'm just merely stating i'm lonely and that I can't help but compare with what is to what it would be like. I don't think anyone can help doing this. I know that one of my big problems that I have is that i'm unable to really get out and do anything. How am I supposed to meet people if i'm always at home? I have no one to do anything with. I am just feeling sorry for myself today and I should just shut up

Updates and Halloween cookies

I know that I haven't posted in a long time, and for that I am sorry. I've been busy. I would like to update everyone. We are all doing great. Riddick is potty trained (finally) and Blinda turns 1 in 2 weeks. I can't believe she is already 1. Well anyway, today we made some Halloween cookies. Riddick helped put on the sprinkles. I bet you can tell.
And then why we made cookies. Blinda made a mess of her own. She is getting so big. Sorry about the lack of clothes.

Just an update on life in general.

I thought I would just drop a quick note to update my life in general. School started on wednesday i'm only taking two classes because of some financial aid issues that I don't even want to get into. So i'm taking Anatomy and English. The Anatomy teacher that I was fearfull of has been replaced by another person. I don't know if i'm going to like him or not. At least with Ty I knew what I was getting myself into. The kids are doing great. Blinda is officially walking.
And she has learned to put things around her neck..like necklaces and such. It is actually horribly cute. Except for right this moment she is trying to walk underneath the table and keeps bumping her head..so sad. And Riddick is testing to see if he can go into early preschool. He has a slight anger problem and they are going to try to put him into head start or something, to see if they can get it straightened out. The kid just has really witnessed to much for his young age. Well i guess i better go deal with the screamer.... peace

This is the most recent picture of the three of us. It was taken at the end of July. Blinda is eating a peach. Riddick is in his jammies. And it was a long day. Blinda is 9 months. And Riddick is 2.5 years.

Blinda walked/crawled over to me and held out her hand while I was eating a peach. She held out her hand as though I was supposed to just hand it to her. So I gave it to her and she proceeded to eat my whole peach. But at least she ate it. Since monday night she has been anti eating. Any suggestions to get her to chow down??

On a much bigger and better note. AS OF AUGUST 4 2009. I AM OFFICIALLY DIVORCED!!! YEAH!!!

Work

Well, I am back to work. I have been called off for about 11 days in a row, but I have worked the last two. So hopefully *fingers crossed* I will continue to work. Blinda is one step closer to walking. Riddick is one step back in potty training. I don't know what to do about him. I don't want to have him crying every time he needs to sit on the potty. I don't want to have to drag him there. Maybe he is just not ready. Or really stubborn. Any suggestions?

The dark side...

This is my daughter Blinda June. She is 8 months old and is starting to walk. She is a princess. I love her to death.

This is my son Riddick. He is 2.5 years old here. He thinks that he is a super hero. He is the coolest boy I know. I love him to death.
