Well Easter has come and gone…the second one without DH {which now stands for Departed Hubby in my case} It wasn’t any easier facing all of this crap alone…but at least it wasn’t the worst holiday I have ever had. Actually for the most part it was really nice…and dinner at PALady’s was DELICIOUS! I made two apple pies…and even with their little mishap {thanks Justin} everyone enjoyed them. For me it was a big deal to make anything more exciting than fruit salad…~LOL~ {Even if it was just pouring the filling into the pie shell…putting another shell over it for a top…and cooking it.}
The “little” brother will be back from Hawaii on Friday. He will only be in town a week tho…so not much chance to really visit with him. Then he is off to Philadelphia for a couple weeks…and then back to Hawauii for two or three months more. I’m adding a picture of him and one of his coworkers that made the Honolulu Star Bulletin yesterday. Even if I didn’t know one of the guys in the picture…it is a really cool picture! The Momma is going to try to get the local paper to reprint it with a little story about the trip…I hope they do it.
Ahhhhh…and last but certainly not least, the kids had their trip to Chuck E Cheese Monday with my MIL and SIL. They had a wonderful time…really seemed to have enjoyed it. And I enjoyed the extra sleep I got b/c they weren’t home. Working nights may kill me before Justin is in school full time if I don’t start getting more {and better} sleep. If it wasn’t for PALady loving me enough to watch Justin {and sometimes both kids} on the weekends, I wouldn’t get more than the naps I get when my MIL takes him on Monday and Friday afternoons. {I am extremely grateful to her as well…without her and PALady I wouldn’t get any sleep except on my nights off!}
Well I am outta here…gotta do Juliette’s hair and get the kids ready b/c I have to work tonight. {YUCK YUCK YUCK Anyone wanna work for me for awhile?}
