Hey everyone...

I hope all is well with everyone. I'm still here but have started working and don't have much time anymore. It's crazy some days. Work until 5 pm, go home and make dinner for hubby who works till 6 pm and gets home at 7 pm, then it's time to eat, call my daughter, catch up on the day with hubby and then by 9:30 pm it's lights out for both of us. Sometimes I'd like to go back to not working and have the day to do whatever I wanted, but I kind of like bringing in a little income so we can plan other things.

We've moved into a 1 bedroom apartment and are on our own now. No other bodies living with us :yes: . It's quieter and we are enjoying it immensely.

We've just returned from a trip to Canada where my family had its first reunion. We had 98 people for supper one night and then 9 more showed up after dinner and there were 5 not far that didn't make it out to my sisters at all but we did see them on Saturday at my nephew's wedding. What a busy week! but a great week :) .

I think that brings everyone up to date with what's happening with us.

Hey there - glad to hear from you! I am understandably jealous of your being able to live like newlyweds! Although i'm sure you must miss your daughter more somedays then others. Somedays I wish I could be missing mine...she's still underfoot, although thankfully 18½ now.

I am totally with you on this! As a teacher I just started back full swing last week and leaving my husband who doesn't have his work permit at home each morning is a bummer.

I know the feeling! When I was unemployed I wanted to work, and now that I'm working I look back at the days of unemployment and wonder what on earth I was complaining about... :lol:

Nice to see things are going well for you BH45!

I do miss her all the time and she's 16 1/2. We still talk everyday, when that option is available, and always have things to discuss.
