Some Calm in Chaos

Ahhh finally some calmness around here! The last two weeks since I started my new job in Santa Clarita have been the most calm and happiest weeks since we got excessed down here. Finally, nearly two years later, I can finally relax a tad. I don't have to worry how many, if any hours I will get this week let alone the next. We aren't cramped in a teeny tiny 2 bedroom apartment anymore. The kids are so much happier and so am I. I know that I go to work and get off the same time everyday and look forward to my weekends off, we are a normal family again!

We chased a yard sale in Ojai today. It ended up disappointment, the lady really didn't have anything and her ad was bigger than her yardsale. But it was an adventure we got to take on as a family, all together. Plus it's beautiful there!

The kids start school Wednesday....Danae starts kindergarten =( I am so sad my baby is in school. She's grown way too fast. Monday we go and meet her teacher so she's excited about that.

Leroy has another round of epidural injections on the 24th. He went to a neurologist to see if they could pinpoint the nerves that were causing all the pain, shortly after that we got a call to get the injections. So maybe this time they can stop the pain. He has some great doctors that we like and trust so hopefully they can eventually get Leroy outta pain.

I set a goal to make 4th of July cards and that didn't happen, so my new goal is Halloween cards, if only I could get my neck outta pain long enough to make some cards. I'm itching to get in my room and craft but some days are so hard to do anything. Eventually I know I will feel better, but when?!

On the bright side Derrick told me we needed to decorate for Christmas today, I think he may have beaten Walmart on that one! =)
