Brain dead

I really want to write something, but my brain is just too tried.

Too many brain-draining items at work to review and too many interrupts in my sleep last night to try and focus enough to come up with anything witty to say.

Maybe tomorrow. Looks like it will be a slow day, as there is very little on the shelf to review and we will probably be doing bench audits.

That is all for now. Hopefully I will see you tomorrow.

PINK EYE!!!!!!!

Well, it has been another rough couple of days. Amelia has pink eye. I guess I do not need to tell you how MAD I am about that. No three-month old should have pink eye. At least the director of her daycare is even madder about it than I am.

Fortunatly, she is doing much better today. Actually, she was doing much better after just one dose of her meds. Thankfully, her doctor's office would she her, seeing as we do not have insurance at the moment. Since changing jobs in January, we have been without insurance, our new coverage with kick in on the first of March, so we will be covered for her 4-month check up. I cannot believe that she will be 4 months old in alittle less than two weeks. In some ways it feels like time has been kicked into over-drive, but in others it seems like it is slowing down (do you know what I mean???)

I have to go, I'm at work. Hopefully, I will be able to post more later.

Amelia - aka - The Jellybean

In a comment to my last post, Becky stated something about giving Amelia (The Jellybean) her own little girl room by moving the desk/office/computer into the guest bedroom, which in some ways would be nice and in others just not possible.

First, my new guest bed (my old queen bed) will not fit in the office, as the office is not big enough to put the old guest bed (a full size bed) in it. Second, the guest room is not big enough to put the desk in even with the old guest bed in it, as our desk is hugh. It use to be Chuck's grandfather's when he was the farm manager for a very large farm in Northern Virginia. However, neither of these is the main reason I am not a big fan of giving Amelia her own room, at least not right now, mostly it is because we are renting right now and when she gets her own room I want it to be HER room, not a room that we cannot do things to. We are hoping to be able to afford to buy a house in the next two years, and then she can have her own room. I am also hoping that we will be able to get away with her sleeping in her crib till she is roughly 2, when we will HOPEFULLY need it for her first sibling.

When she gets her own room I want to be able to paint and decorate without caring if the landlord with have problems with it. I would love for her to have a nursery/room that is just her's that we can do all sorts of things to, but at least all of this is going on when she is too little to know any different. When she is older and really will care, then hopefully we will be able to give her her own room. But it WILL NOT BE PINK!!!!!!!!!!, not when went we can paint it any color under the sun. So don't even start thinking about it Becky :P

I've been away for a very long time!!!!

I know, I know ... I haven't been here is a very long time. One I never realised how difficult it can be to write every day, I know I have said this before but its true; Two I am so brain dead by the time I get home every night that the thought of writing doesn't even cross my mind. Plus with the computer in the Jellybean's nursery, it makes writing after she's gone to bed impossible.

I am hoping that I will have time each day to write here at work. Four out of five days I am the only one in the department after 3:30 and most days I do not have anything to work on. So until I am completely up to speed with everything, I will have at least an hour to write (and read). I am way behind in my daily reading (see note above). I miss visiting everyones' sites and seeing what is going on in your lifes. I wrote that sentence as if there are people who actually read my blog!!!!! Maybe some day I will have people who read me (I know it would help if I actually contributed to my blog more than once every couple of weeks) I'll just have to wait and see.

This weekend was a bit rough. You know you've had a rough weekend when you are actually looking forward to Monday. Chuck got sick late Saturday night and the Jellybean is starting to teeing. Yesterday was the most difficult day with her since she was 5 days old. But looking back if yesterday is the worst it gets than life will/should be good.

Fortunately, Chuck is feeling a whole lot better and was able to go get the Jellybean from daycare when they called and said she had a low-grade fever (she's teeing remember). They didn't say she had to come home right then and there, but that if her fever went up then she would have to come home. But as I said Chuck was feeling alot better, so he came and got the blazer and took her home. He said she was doing fine and seemed to be happy to be home.

And on that note, I will head out and hope for the best for tomorrow.
