Limbo

Have you ever been in limbo?  An uncertain period of awaiting a decision or resolution; an intermediate state or condition.  This is my life.  LIMBO!  For two months we have just been sitting waiting.  For what? A job.  It is amazing how a job defines your life.  It is who you are, what you can spend, where you live.  These are all huge revelations to me.  I say, love what you do because it is so much of who you are.  I have a CRAZY peace about life right now.  I thank everyone for their prayers and please continue to pray for us.  We have no idea what tomorrow holds but I can't worry about that. Today has enough trouble of it's own. Someone very wise said this, Matthew 6:34.  

How about some random thoughts:

Nathan clear out of the blue said to me, "I love you mama."  two and cute, cute, cute!

Madison is meeting or exceeding Kindergarten exceptions!  GO GIRL! Everything that has been tested she meets the requirement for the year or exceeds it!  She has daddy's IQ and mama's good looks.   

Can't forget Alex.  This weekend we visited with family and they told her Santa came early and left her a gift.  A gift she already got for her birthday.   She loved it and now she has two.  It is consumable, so all is good.  After opening the gift said something along the lines of, Santa should know I already have this.  FUNNY!  

If you had or wanted to move where would you go?  Bigger house, smaller house, old house, new house, lots of land, big house little lot, little house big lot, how much is my house worth, would someone buy this house?  How about the HOA?  My name is Heather and I am addicted to realtor.com.   

Webkinz birthday party planning is under way.  I bought 8 lilkinz for Madison's party, B1G1 FREE. Everyone is going home with a webkinz! Mark doesn't understand our love for the silly but he indulges our Webkinz party dreams.  So much fun!  She is going to flip when she sees the retired unicorn I bought her MONTHS ago.  I found it in the spring (marked down).  If you don't know Webkinz you have no idea the grander of this gift.  The only one I have ever seen is the one I bought.  Mark is making a Wheel of Wow.  It is amazing what a man will do for his wife and kids.  Two days after Christmas our house will be transformed into Kinzville.  

My mom is coming home early for Christmas,  an early gift :)  Nana Clause is coming to town!

Top 10 Things I Don't Miss About Facebook

It has been 24 days since I changed my password and logged off Facebook. I have logged on twice to see if anyone messaged me and logged back off. Which I am glad that I did because someone messaged me about math tutoring. The only thing I missed was if someone had had their baby. I was interested to know and while I tried so hard to stay off Facebook I did search her name just to see if she had the baby. Then I thought if she did have the baby and I don't know then are we really friends?   We are not friends by the true definition, just virtual Facebook friends. Top 10 Things I Don't Miss About Facebook 1. Selling of Rodan & Fields, LuLaRue, 31, Ketones or Scentsy.  I like some of these products and support you 100% and hope you do well.  The multiple posts on your product daily but nothing else in your life, blah. 2. Bragging. I love to see pictures of your vacation, if it isn't the only time you are on Facebook. 3. Posting fake news. 4. Making a comment I ...

Self Correcting Error

Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.    ~ Thomas Edison   As a parent I really struggle with how much should I meddle in the affairs of my kids. At what point are you just making your kids decisions for them? Recently I went to a winter retreat with a group of middle and high school students as a chaperone. We had fun, but as a chaperone we were talking about a choice one of the kids was making and the other parent said to us along the lines of it will be a "self correcting error".  At what point do we has parents let our kids fail, not to be mean spirited but at some point you learn by error. Clearly something that is going to cause them or others physical or emotional harm needs to be dealt with as soon as possible. What about the kid that wants to take AP history? The class you know will be hard. It will take a lot of work and might not be worth the AP credit. Do you let them never even have ...

One Word Can Actually Make a Difference

I choose not to work. I do understand that people don't have a choice and have to work outside of the home for a pay check to buy food and shelter.  One parent in my house must work. I also feel some don't really have to work and choose to work for luxury items.  I have talked to people that say there is no way they could be a stay at home parent and choose to go to work. Why do we as parents belittle each other in our choices.  Recently on Facebook (some say a necessary evil, but I think it is just evil) A parent commented   "...for the parent that actually works".  Wow, only one word makes that sentence sting.  I try not to let these words on Facebook hurt me or give them a second thought but I am a wordy person and I think about words.  The sentence takes a different tone if it was written, "for the parent that works".  The word "actually" implies negative things to those that don't work. For the parent that works I understand that a 30 ...
