waiting

I have written on the blog in a while because I haven't, honestly, had too much to say. I know, shocking, isn't it??? I am in the waiting game really. I am waiting to see if I get another position. I am waiting to go back to school for my certification. I am waiting for school to be over. I am waiting for Riley's birthday. Just waiting! I am enjoying myself for the most part in my wait. I tell you what, when you have to come to a job each day for absolutely no reason at all, other than to remember you aren't really wanted and feel bitter about it....well you begin to enjoy your home life all the better. I can't wait at the end of the day to see my family. I LOVE my new house so much! I LOVE my neighborhood. It is so peaceful and nice and welcoming. I LOVE living in a cul de sac! When Riley wakes up on weekends he opens his windows and we watch the squirrels chase each other all over the neighborhood. There are so many, I guess they feel safe tucked away in the safety of the cul de sac. At night I put B in his little car stroller thing (couldn't think of a better word for it at the time) and Riley gets on his bike and we walk to the duck pond near our house. Which, by the way, has dried up into a small, pathetic puddle. We need rain SO BAD! There are fires all around us and the 60 mile an hours winds are going to start then whole town on fire. But, at least I have a reprieve.....HOME. It means more now than ever. Kind of like when B was sick and we were away so long and when we did come back for a while we were missing a piece of our family. Home takes on a whole new meaning when tragedy strikes. Sometimes it is good to just put it all in perspective!!!!!
Till next time....................................
