I’m back to blogging in full swing. I took quite a break! The past 6 months have been full of wonderful memories.
Still no news on the baby. There was one point in October where we were told we were up next and a 6 month old baby boy was a month away from being available for adoption. That fell through. I was heart broken for a day or two, but bounced back quickly. No point in becoming frustrated or desperate. It will happen when it happens.
The biggest news from the past 6 months is…….duh duh duh…. I am now licensed! I passed my national test and the state ethics test to become a Licensed Professional Counselor. After I passed my test, people asked me, “Was there ever any doubt?” To which I replied, “YES, ACTUALLY, THERE WAS!!!” I received my license in the mail on the very last day of 2009. It was a neat way to bring in the new year. Becoming licensed has been the biggest accomplishment I have had yet.
Christmas was wonderful. My family has now moved to be closer to the grandbaby. FREE BABYSITTERS! WOO HOO! Just kidding. Sort of. I know Grandparents are more than babysitters. It was wonderful to spend the holidays with family so close together. We had a terrible blizzard on Christmas Eve, but we were still able to spend Christmas together because they live close now.
My lovely husband got me the best Christmas present. It is the newest love of my life. My Macbook.
*Sigh* It is truley wonderful.
In other news, Oklahoma has been snowed in like you would not believe. Work was finally open today, so I tried to go. Really, I did. I got about 2 miles from my house and realized I had no control of my car as the road was COMPLETELY covered in ice. There was nothing for the tires to grip. My car (and all the other cars) were all over the road. I quickly turned off onto a side street, called my boss, told her there was no way I was going to make it in today and went home.
I have pictures! Thanks to my lovely macbook, my blogs can now be more visually interesting.
I went to Walmart the night before the storm hit. DUMBEST. IDEA. EVER. Everyone was there, and it seemed as though they bought one three seven of everything. This was the poor peanut-butter isle.
Levi was happy about the snow. She refused to come inside.
Eddie, on the other hand, refused to go out. He was content to sit and watch the snow fall.
The snow was so pretty. It helped that work was closed so I could stay home, under the blankets, with movies & books, enjoying the snow.
I know….pretty huh?









It was reassuring to look at over the past few weeks while things at work were (still sort of are) insane. We had our Federal Review last week (my department passed with flying colors!) and we open a new building next week. Like I said, it was insane.
