Some of you know things went badly with the school district the boys were in. I finally found a house in the town we should have been in all along and we are settling in. The kids love it out here and school starts Monday.
It has been a crazy ride and all happened so fast, but I love my new house and the neighborhood is awesome, except for one minor detail, but he's a fucktard and I won't let him mess with what is best for the kids and I.
The boys are sharing a room for the first time ever, it has been interesting, but they are learning to co exist in close proximity to each other.
I "re-met" someone I went to high school with. He lives one street over, is a single dad of two beautiful girls, and we've been spending quite a bit of time together.
He tells me all the time what a good job I'm doing with the kids, how wonderful the boys are, and how amazing my girl is with the boys.

Stregnth tends to shine through and lady, you got it! Thanks hun. Alot has happened, with me discovering the bad stuff has pretty much been blessings in disguise. My Jeep was stolen the day of the move. I had gap insurance, so I am now completely out of car payments and I paid cash for my "new" car. I am saving quite a bit of money because of it. The hardest part was losing all of my CDs and I hadn't registered it for AZ. It finally dawned on me that these little things were holding me back and keeping me tied too much to our old lives and not letting Oregon go. Plus the neighbor has a truck and said if we coordinate things he would take us camping.

It is very good to hear from you! How is the job hunt going? Family stuff?
Good to hear you have found a nice guy to hang with - just remember you need friends and you don't need any man to rescue you - you are awesome on your own! I hope he stays wonderful, but even if he doesn't, you are one awesome mama!

Good to hear you have found a nice guy to hang with - just remember you need friends and you don't need any man to rescue you - you are awesome on your own! I hope he stays wonderful, but even if he doesn't, you are one awesome mama! I have decided to hold off on looking for work for the time being. The kids just started school and we just moved. I want us to get settled in and take care of some projects around the house I have been putting off for a long time. I enjoy being able to pick the kids up from school and be here for them in the afternoons. Both boys are being completely mainstreamed this year. B is having a bit of an adjustment in the classroom, but he is doing really well. For the first time ever he has homework and is loving being a big kid. R is an 8th grader this year, such a hard time for girls as it is. Starting a new school and having to make new friends is tough at any age. She is adjusting to being back in a traditional school. J is my handfull and doesn't want to go to school. The cuteness doesn't work anymore and he is expected to work, lol. He has been taking a nap almost every day when he gets home from school. I've put the focus back on us as a unit, and things just seem to be falling into place.
