6 months and no postings.

Well there went my idea of posting at least every week.  It has been six months since I last posted.  A lot and nothing has been going on.  Still looking for another job.  Can't believe it is so hard for a nurse to find a position.  Of course it would be easier if I had my RN.  Guess I really need to get working on that.

Been  having issues with my 12 year old boy.  Part of it I know is being a boy and an almost teenager kicking in.  He got in trouble at school and had a weeks worth of in school suspension.  I am really hoping that he has learned his lesson.  I don't think he liked the new Mom.  Oh well.

Mom and I have been getting ready for Christmas here.  Has taken us 3 days to decorate the inside of the house, and 3+ days outside.  The outside decorations have been taking longer since we keep "tweaking" the decorations.  There is a contest in my little town that we have entered and are doing our best to win or come in 2nd place.  This has caused me many sleepless nights because I now want to go nuts with the outside decorations.  I have been researching Christmas Light Shows, and dreaming of what I can do with it.  Especially now that I have some help with the putting up and taking down aspect of it.  I have decided on the 32 channel Light-O-Rama system.  Now just have to come up with the money for it.  I am hoping sometime after Christmas to be able to afford it.  It will take me all year to program it, since I don't know what I am doing.  I have been also dreaming up "homemade" decorations for the system.  There are some great websites that walk you through doing it yourself.  Every morning I wake up thinking that I can do it.  There is only 2 problems.  One is that I don't have the money to buy everything I need and two the stores are not stocking very many lights anymore.  It makes it difficult to pick up all the extra lights I will need in the after Christmas sale when they are almost sold out now.  Oh well.  We will see.  Of course I will have to get over my fear of heights to decorate the roof and the roof line for it.  Hubby just rolls his eyes every time I ask him to put lights up on the house.  Why did I get the only man who doesn't like to decorate for Christmas.

That is enough for now.  Have a sick little girl that needs some Mommie time.
