Well, I’ve been ignoring this place. Although not really. Just been busy enjoying the beautiful weather and being outside. About 2 weeks ago was the anniversary of my dad’s death. I can’t believe it’s been 5 years already. I miss him so much….mostly just his voice. The girls and I went to Disneyland for the day since Zoee had a half day at school, it was a nice distraction, I cried myself to sleep that night.
Mother’s Day was hard for Greg and Friday was his b’day. He misses his mom’s voice too. It’s just weird that she’s gone.
Zoee has 3 more weeks of school then she’s a 2nd grader…lord….I don’t like this growing up stuff. In November we are taking Zoee to see Mary Poppin’s on stage in LA. To say I’m excited is an understatement. And the best part, Laura and Alan are going with us, they bought our tickets for both Greg’s and mine (?) b’day’s. Zoee is once again attached to her care bear…and Emma is still hooked on the hottest blanket in the world, it goes everywhere with us.
We are once again waiting on Greg’s job. Since the props didn’t pass this time around (we voted no on everything knowing this too) looks like more cuts are coming our way, although the union isn’t firing people right. They aren’t doing first hired first fired like they are supposed too. So it’s going to start a lawsuit and well, that’ll take some time. Greg is looking into Seattle and Oregon PD. He doesn’t want to go to another state as a firemen cause other places are behind in training. He’s also looking at the LAPD and CHP. I really don’t want him to be a cop, but it keeps food on the table. If unemployment is offered he will go to paramedic school, then it will be different to go out of state. I’ll get a job if I have too…not looking forward to it, but if it needs to happen it needs to happen.
It’s hard watching the fire station where he left 5 years ago. At the time he left he was making 60,000 and we struggled. Now they got a 10,000 raise from the federal government. I’m a tad jealous when everyone around us is taking paycuts they are getting raises. It sucks.
Greg and I are going to Santa Barbara in August to see No Doubt. I can’t wait!
