A little closer together :)

Well, it hasn't been 2 years! That's something, right???
Life is just as crazy as always. I got a new job!!! I am a Customer Service Manager at our local Walmart. Yeah, yeah... I know. But it's a job and I actually like what I do. Well, I can't say I "like" getting yelled at by customers occasionally but I like the rest of it. And I've lost 10 lbs since I started so that's something too! Go me!!! I'm not sure if it's water weight that I've lost (I'm having to be very careful with the whole dehydration thing) or the approx. 4 miles I walk around that store every day but whatever it is, I'll take it! Kia won't be the only one in the family that shrinks out of her clothes!!!

We're still living in our little apartment in town and it's not so bad. Other then the fact that I think every... single...teenager...in town knows where we live! It's funny, when we lived at our old place pretty much nobody even knew where we lived and other then 1 or 2 of Kia's friends, nobody every was at my house. Now it's like Grand Central Station around here some days!

I got to play "Grandma" last weekend. That was fun. Kia's older half-sister let us have her 2 little ones for a couple of days. The 3 yr old girl reminds me a lot of her Auntie at that age! The 2 1/2 month old was perfect "birth control" LOL Well, the first night he slept pretty much the whole night and didn't fuss at all. The second night he did his job a little better and woke her up a few times. The third night? Yeah, it was perfect! He woke up screaming at 1:30 am and she couldn't get him to stop. I ended up taking him and cuddling with him and calming him down and he slept in my room the rest of the night. He loves his "Grandma" so he slept in until 8:30. :)

Working pretty close to full time and helping with Horse Camp every week has kept us pretty busy this summer.
Hope you're summer is going great!
