I really need a new job

Not that I don't like my current one. It's fine. It's not hard and pays well for the most part. But normally I don't have enough to do so I'm twiddling my thumbs. That's not the only reason why either. THe family and I are leaving. We are moving back to the town where we swore never to return. LOL It's amazing how your perceptions are skewed. The grass is always greener on the other side untill you get there. After realizing that we hated London Ohio and wanted to move back, something happened here that kicked that into overdrive.

While we were away the weekend of Mother's Day there was a shooting in our apartment building. We live in apartment F on the second floor. The shooting happened in Apartment D which is below and off to the side of us. This apartment was known to us as drug dealing. It's fairly obvious to anyone paying any attention. Well, the dumb asses who were there got into an argument over a card game and one shot the other. We came home that Sunday night though and didn't know that anything had happened. We did notice new neighbors across the hall from us in APT E. Patrick then noticed then doing a drug deal himself as he was getting the rest of the stuff out of the truck. So on monday I get home from work and Rose who lives below us asked to speak with me. She's a nice girl who has 3 boys that my kids play with. We are two totally different people but we get along rather well. She procedes to tell me about the shooting that weekend. At first the cops had mistaken the apartment as being hers. So I came upstairs and told Patrick. We decided then and there it was time to wash our hands of this. We got a hold of the management office and they are letting us out of our lease with no penalties. Yes we got that in writing as well

So now I'm job searching an unfortunately it's not going the best. I did apply for a job at Tiffin U but was told they had done some interviews already so we'll see if I even get called. We would like to leave by the end of June and there is a house in Fremont that looks promising if we could secure it and get jobs. Wsh us luck.

oh the joys of pregnancy

I really hadn't intended this blog to be so much about my pregnancy but it seems to be heading in that direction. I think it's because there really isn't anything else exciting going on in my life so it's something for me to talk about.
So far everything is good. I got to see and hear a heart beat last Thursday and should be able to do the same this Thursday. I will then be referred to a high risk ob. That will be a new experience and i'm not sure how different it will be from a regular ob.
So I've been dealing with the monster called morning sickness. Now this is something I should actually be happy to be having. It means that everything is going ok and that my HCG levels are rising like they should. HOWEVER..... I have never had morning sickness like this. OMG...... I only had it a little bit with Robert and none with Rhayan. I feel absulutely miserable most of the day. I had to call in sick monday as I felt so bad and had a migraine on top of it all. I also seem to have gotten what I call teenage face. For the first time since I was a teenager I have broken out in horrible acne. Uhhh LOL
On the good side though, everything is going fine. I did have a minor anxiety session the other day and thought OMG what am I doing having a third baby. LOL too late for that huh? It's kind of neat this time around. I feel completely new at this since it's been 5 years since I've had a viable pregnancy. I have my friend Lindsay who is due with a boy in September. My sister BJ is also pregnant and due in November. I am due on Christmas Day :) Should be an interesting time come the holidays this year. Anyone want to join us?
