So long 2009...Welcome 2010

I know I haven't even posted Christmas yet, but 2010 is weighing heavily on my mind! This year will be by far one of the most interesting yet. There are many reasons that I won't bore you with. But here are just a few of my thoughts!

  • 1. Cleaning up Christmas Decorations! Love putting them up, Hate taking them down.
  • 2. Setting New Years Resolutions!
  • 3. Breaking New Years Resolutions!
  • 4. Potty Training Cannon. Hopeful to have that done by June!
  • 5. Finishing the basement! The Framing is DONE!!
  • 6. Adjusting to 2 kids and a traveling husband. Having MAJOR ANXIETY over this one!
  • 7. Dealing with 3 more months of winter, and no holiday to look forward to in an effort to "enjoy" the cold.
  • 8. SNOW! Need I say more?!
  • 9. Busy Season :(!
  • 10. Waiting 5 more months for a sweet little bundle of love!

I don't mean for this to sound negative, but as I reflected on the last 2 weeks I found myself depressed looking forward to the next few months. Brandon has been home for two weeks straight. We (meaning Brandon and my dad) have been working in the basement nearly every day. We have had good times with family and friends. We have slept in, stayed up late, gone to movies, worked a little, played a lot, and enjoyed the layed back schedule of having Brandon home. Starting Monday, that is all over! Back to the grind! I know that 2010 will bring us much joy, happiness and many blessings. Sometimes it is just sad to see a good year go! Goodbye 2009, welcome 2010!

I feel you my hubby has been at home for almost two weeks and we have one more to go then he is off to Utah for 6 days and back to school when he gets back. Actually he has one day of school before he goes. I am not looking forward to being a single mom again either, I feel your pain. At least you have family to help you out and to spend time with:)

I can't wait to find out waht you are having, You better post as soon as you know. Do you feel one way or the other. I hope you are feeling better this time. You haven't posted about being sick so I am hoping that means your not.

Oh I can so relate! Having Tommy home for 3 weeks was a blessing and a curse! We just got so spoiled and used to having him home so this has been a rough week having him gone again. I feel ya! Good luck and that is very exciting to finish your basement!
