Updates

Sorry about not posting anything in quite some time but have been busy, busy, busy with everyday stuff. Time just seems to get away from me.

Well...

Brett has started Cub Scouts and so far is liking it. He absolutely can't wait to get his uniform and hand booklet to start earning those badges? patches? you know what i mean. As for me I'm a bit overwhelmed with Cub Scouts. I feel like a fish out of water at the meetings but i suppose things will get better in time. He has his Den meeting tomorrow and he just turned in his popcorn order. Can't wait to have some of that delicious popcorn that i ordered, mmmmmm. He is also looking forward to making his design for the pine wood derby race car races that will be held in February. Brett is doing good in school even though he doesn't like school very well.

Cody, believe it or not, is doing wrestling and loving it whoo hoo! Tonight he won his first match but lost his second one and then his third one was won by default because there was no one to wrestle in his weight division. I am so proud of him. He getting some muscle now so everybody better watch out! LOL He definitely stepped out of his comfort zone to do this sport and he is having fun too! He is doing well in school and of course still taking piano lessons.

Jes is taking a break from basketball this year. Not sure what is going on with that. I think she feels like she has let her dad down because she promised him should would continue playing basketball but she can't seem to get motivated to play. I will definitely be checking up on this. As far as school she is doing well still getting A's and B's and really is liking her science classes. She wants to be a vet and is looking at going to school at CSU. BTW that's where her dad went to college. She is planning on getting an internship at one of the local vet clinics here in town. She has been a tremendous help with the bus driving as my mom would have said or was it the chauffeur? She picks up Brett afterschool since Brett started having problems with some kids on the bus. Christina's parents pick Brett up afterschool, since they pick up their grandson too at Park and then Jes picks him up from their house. (BTW Christina is a very dear friend of mine.) Then she picks up Cody from practice on the days that I get home late from work. Then she takes Brett to his Den meetings because his meetings start at 3:30 on Fridays which of course is the time I get off of work in Ignacio. And then she picks up Cody from piano practice on Fridays at 5:00 since I have to pick up Brett at 5:00 from his den meetings. Oh did i mention she also makes sure the boys are out the door in time for school since I leave before they are fully awake? It is alot of responsibility I have put on her shoulders but she hasn't complained and for that i am so thankful.

As far as my work well it is really crazy right now. There seems to not be enough hours in a day to get all that needs to be done. As i am sitting at the bar typing my post Shadow is demanding some attention which makes me have to stop every so often cuz he keeps pawing at me to pet him silly cat! Can anyone say multi-task? I think i need to clone myself into at least 5 of me to get anything done. And to top it all off there has been problems with getting my mothers death certificate correct and I really want to settle her estate. UGH!!!! I am so looking forward to just getting a break at Thanksgiving. I just have to hang in there for at least 9 more days! Yippee. We have been invited to my friend Carie's house. She lives up the valley in Hermosa...I am so very thankful and glad that she's my friend. She's looking out for me!

So until next time...Cecelia, Jes, Cody and Brett
