My day
So I've got to force myself to do this more. I always have so many thoughts going through my head and it's hard for me to get my ADD to let me sit down long enough.
This AM I got up with my kiddos at 6 and spent the morning getting them and my mom ready to get out the door. This is no small task. Our goal of getting the kids to their dad by 7:30 ended up being closer to 8:00. Then I dropped mom at her school and went to get Rob. I was pretty late, which I always feel so bad about. This morning was just such a gorgeous day and I had had such a good time with my kids the last couple days that there was just nothing that was going to bring me down.
Got to the apartment pretty close to 9:30 which didn't give poor Rob any time to lay down at all. I threw the sheets in the washer and started in on the dishes. I showered and took a computer/nap break. I was really tired but had such a hard time falling asleep. I have so many things on my mind including my best friend going through an awful time right now and me having my hands tied and unable to help her. I miss her so much.
Finally fell asleep and slept until Rob came home on his lunch break around 1:30. I got about 15 minutes of Rob time, which was not nearly enough, and had a nice salad for lunch. He's so good to me. I continued with the switching of laundry, did another load of dishes, and cleaned the bathroom. Everything is smelling much fresher! I finally got the drying rack put together that I bought 2 weeks ago. Put my first load of laundry to dry on it. We'll see how it goes. I had a house for 7 years and always wanted a clothes line or drying rack to save on the electric bill and never got one! I'm hoping this works out!
I have only lived in an apartment two other times in my life. Once in 2nd grade for about 2 months and once right after high school for about 3 months. I am not used to not being able to walk out my back door without a shirt on. So when I got the drying rack finished I went to take it to the balcony and gave the guy across the way an eye full. I guess it's no worse than seeing a girl in a bikini...but still. Actually that kind of makes me want to do a social experiment that I've thought about before. I would love to have different situations where one girl goes somewhere in a skimpy bikini and another goes to the same place in bra and underwear. It would be an interesting "people watching" situation.
So I swept off the balcony while I was out there and have continued rebooting the laundry. I've got to get everything put away. I'm taking lots of breaks and trying not to kill myself since I have all day tomorrow to get stuff done. I'd like to bust out my spackle here in a minute, but I think I'll wait till after Rob leaves tonight.
That's about it for this post. I plan on writing about the last couple days a little later.

Lazy weekend!
My kiddos are gone to the Ranch so I am enjoying doing....NOTHING! I slept and visited with one of my best friends, Alexis yesterday. Enjoyed a lazy evening with Rob, and ended the night with our friend, Race, doing a little karaoke at Brennan's. Today I was too lazy to get up so Rob took my car to work. I've watched a movie, Becentennial Man, and played around on facebook. I'm gonna get up and do some laundry and clean the kitchen in a bit, but I am hungry so I'm contemplating walking to get food somewhere. I work tonight but still have no kiddos tomorrow so it will be another lazy day!

I yet again have not had the time to blog recently. With work, school, kids, and trying to get some sleep in here or there, I just haven't had the time. So here's an update of my world.
Cori is enjoying the end of her school year. She has made so many girl friends this year, which has me breathing a sigh of relief. She is still swimming at Teacher Lynda's where I work. She is incredible! I think she will be a way better swimmer than I ever was....and I was good!LOL She has also been taking a gymnastics class with her friend, Sierra, once a week and will be taking more ice skating lessons this summer, as well as being on Ironwood's swim team. I'm really looking forward to watching her swim meets! She is growing so tall and beautiful. I am making a goal to spend more one-on-one time with her this summer.
Ethan is still my best boy. He is the sweetest thing on the planet. I love him so much! I won't go into detail of all the medical issues we have been addressing with him, but I feel we're making progress. He just recently got glasses for reading and is so cute in them! He will also be swimming and Ice skating this summer along with Summer School. We made the decision not to hold him back after all. I'm really not sure if it's the right decision, but I don't have a clue what the right one is! He is behind academically because he has had such behaviour issues this year. I really hope that with my mom's help, and a teacher next year who will be more understanding, we will be able to get this very bright wonderful boy up to where he needs to be. I'm determined to love that kid enough to help get him through life!
Georgia, or Lil g, as I call her is one spunky little girl. She finally acclimated to preschool and her teachers are please with her progress. She will be going to Paseo Verde next year because Mrs. Hailey is being transferred there. Mrs. Hailey has been such a blessing to all 3 of my children that I can't imagine putting Lil g anywhere else. I get to spend a lot of one-on-one time with Lil g, and we just have so much fun. She's as ornery as they come! She will be doing swim lessons this summer and skating lessons with the other two as well. I know she's excited.
As for me I am getting ready to enroll in summer school. I'm also preparing to enroll in the Phlebotomy program at PC next Spring. I'm on the road to nursing school but need to take the necessary stepping stones so I can have a decent job while I'm in school. I'm still working at the pool about 10 hours a week or so and hosting karaoke several nights a week. Both things work well in my schedule so that my mom can watch the kids while I'm working. I wish I could find something else to fit in my schedule that would bring in a bit more money. Things are super tight, but I think they are for everyone. I'm looking into donating plasma and other things that might help. Too bad I'm too old to donate my eggs! LOL I make pretty cute kids! LOL I don't think many people read this, it's really more of a journal for me. I need to take a minute and be thankful for a very special person who has come into my life. I'm not ready to put out too many details to the world, but I have been becoming closer and closer to my friend, Rob. He is becoming my closest friend, and dare I say, perhaps the man I will spend my life with. He came in and restored something that shattered in me when I was very little. My dad wasn't around hardly at all. He didn't help my mom support us very much. And after a minor falling out I haven't spoken to him since right after Ethan was born in 2003. It's sad, and I wish it were different, but him not being in my life killed something inside of me at a young age. I had very little faith in men. Rob has breathed some new life in me and has given me a sense of hope. I am looking forward to introducing him into my life with my kids and my family. Now for the couple people who are reading this DO NOT PANIC! I am not rushing into anything anytime soon! I'm being careful and cautious, but know that I wouldn't introduce a person into my kids' lives if he weren't the best thing for me or them.

Hardly time for blogging anymore!
Well at the moment I don't have daily access to a computer and I have started school. That is the reason my blog has fallen dormit. I'm taking my 2nd to last prerequisit in order to get into a nursing program. The class is Biology and it has the potential to swiftly kick me in the booty! I have been studying my poor little brain to death! I think I've studied more for this one class than all my past college AND high school classes combined! We just had our first test last week. I GOT A 94!!!!!!!!!!! I had a feeling I did well on it, but had no idea I had done THAT well. My grade in the class right now is a 90, which is an A....which is FANTASTIC! But if I don't keep studying and probably work even harder than I am that grade will easily fall. Not that a B would be a bad thing, but an A would just be awesome! I think it will give me more confidence going into the next class which is Anatomy. I have never taken an anatomy class so this will be all new to me. At least with the Biology it's all stuff I've had before. Having some prior knowledge really helps in studying and understanding. Maybe I should locate the anatomy book NOW and start reading!
In other news....
Cori just turned 8 in January. I just had a parent/teacher conference with Cori's teacher and she is doing very very well. I am so glad she has Mrs. Harris. Cori is so much happier and has so much more self esteem this year. She isn't as interested in the boys as she was last year (and yes, I am sighing in relief about that!). She seems to have gotten much closer with some of the girls in her class. She (and Ethan) had a birthday party in January that was just a HUGE hit! I see her every day in the cafeteria and all her friends say hi to me and Cori is almost always in a good mood! She is getting so tall and her hair is getting so long! One of these days I'll get my puter back and I'll be able to post recent pictures.
Ethan just turned 6 in January. He has more of a struggle with school because of his disabilities. He can't handle all day Kindergarten yet, so I pull him out at 11:00 everyday. He takes a nap every afternoon which tells me he just isn't mature enough for it yet. Academically he is fine. He is a VERY bright boy. But for the sake of making his schooling less of a struggle for him he will repeat kindergarten next year with the same teacher. Ms. Cluff is so sweet to him. She's a fairly new teacher and doesn't quite know how to handle him or make him comfortable but she is trying very hard. Every day with Ethan is new and different. He is THE sweetest boy in the world! He has incredible vocabulary and talks all the time. His manners are awesome and sometimes I wonder how such a sweet boy came out of me. Then of course there is the Ethan that is very very very difficult to handle. I won't even go into the behaviors we have to deal with on a daily basis. His mild autism and SEVER Sensory Integration Disorder (and possibly ADHD) make Ethan's world different from ours and sometimes difficult for him to navigate. We are working very hard on giving him the tools he will need the rest of his life to deal with day to day stressers. I believe with as much effort we are putting into him and his therapy that he will be a very successful adult. We hope to get him into Hockey year round. He loves it and it helps with his disabilities.
Georgia (will be 4 in July), or Lil g as I call her, is such a spitfire. She has the most of both me and he father mixed in her, which can be a deadly combination. She does what SHE wants to do. She is not a bad little girl. For the most part she is a deliriously happy, energetic, little ball of fun. She's easily tickled out of a bad mood. She loves to terrorize her brother (poor little guy) and forgets very easily where fun stops and naughtiness begins. She is doing well in preschool. She has Mrs. Hailey and Mrs. Benggstein (sp?) which are the same teachers Cori and Ethan had. We absolutely LOVE these two teachers. They are awesome! Lil g is probably the least behaved of my 3 kids for them. I can tell by the way they look at her that they loved Ethan more! LOL (Ethan was absolutely perfect for them because their classroom was a perfect balance of stimulation for Ethan) Not that they don't love Georgia, but I can see times that if she weren't my child and SO stinkin' cute that I may not like her as much either!
Other than that I am still working at the pool and hosting karaoke several nights a week. I am lucky to have so much help from my mom and sister so that I can get enough sleep to function well on a daily basis. My life is not without disapointment and I am struggling with some depression at the moment. But I choose not to dwell on the negative. I have very specific goals and see them playing out in the next 3-5 years.

My sweet little E-boy
Ethan has been recently diagnosed with low-grade Autism Spectrum Disorder. He has been having a lot of trouble in school this year. Of course we've been aware of some of the minor and seperate issues he's had over years (blocked bowells, sensativity to noise, SID, Apraxia, Tics, OCD, etc) and I have been trying to get a Doctor to give me some kind of diganosis for each of these things individually. But I had no idea that all these issue combine equal autism. The nail in the autism coffin is that he has become violent. Of course he is still the sweet loving Ethan we know, but when something sets him off he tends to hurt people to make them stop what they're doing. A couple months back he walked across his kinder room and cut a little girl with scissors (thank goodness she didn't get more than just a scratch). When asked why he did this he said that she was making too much noise and wouldn't be quiet. I am so sad to see him struggling like this and we are doing everything in our power to help him. His preschool teachers are just so shocked by everything I have told them because, although they noticed the individual problems, they never once had a problem with Ethan like we're having this year. He only goes to school half day. I pick him up everyday at 11 right after lunch. This hasn't solved the problem although he comes home everyday and has a nap and I'm sure he needs them. He is doing fine acidemically, doing everything at grade level. Besides getting him the appropriate therapies we will be holding him back so that he can do Kindergarten again as a more mature little boy. If we let him continue onto 1st grade next year I know he will just stil further and further behind. So this situation has been pretty rough, but we have been dealing with it for years without a name. Now it just has a name and actual things we can do to help this little boy adjust and settle into a pretty normal life.
