Just Today

So, I suppose it would be impossible to catch up where I left off.
I remember how much it used to bother me when people would stop blogging to be Facebook regulars, But here I am......Three years later, having been trapped in the Facebook web. Initially, I was going to deactivate my Facebook. But, for convenience reasons of uploading photos, I think I will stay on exclusively for a convenient place to upload pics from my phone.
Blogging feels like a place where who cares what anyone else is doing because no one really looks anymore. A bit old school, but so many great memories of our family here. I am not going to put any kind of pressure at all to catch up, yet I'm simply going to start with thoughts just for TODAY:
-My friend, Connie's Mom passed away this week. I think it's been harder on me than I expected. I have noticed that I deal with grief through anger. Not sure why, but instead of sad, I get so angry over other situations not related to the situation. It was good to go to her graveside service yesterday.
-Our little Tate is all sorts of adorable. I can't download any pics with this post because I'm at work. Anyhow, His latest is him walking around saying: "No touchy". Ha ha....He's definitely comic relief we all need. His blond little curls make me swoon.
-My sweet little Chaz. He's always good for a hug, an obedient "Yes Mommy" or a laugh. On Thursday, we were eating at a restaurant  that had fun little machines that Chaz thought he needed something out of. In order to get coins for the transaction, Kandace requested that he asked if I care if they go out to get her wallet. As he asked me, I said "Yes I do care". With a casual look on his face, he walked over to Kandace, and simply asked: "Kandace, what is Do Care?" Ha ha.....Knowing he would possibly still try to follow her out to the car, I said: "Chaz, you need to come with me", and I escorted him into the bathroom with me. After a few seconds of silence, Chaz curiously (and LOUDLY) asked: "Mom, what is prison?" (where does this child come up with such things? I am used to his off the wall inquiries, but I was immediately worried what the person next to us was thinking. No sooner had I completed my thought than I hear amused laughter from the stall next to us. She asked me: "How old is he, 4 or 5?" yup, no filter for kids in that age range. Her and I had a good laugh. Chaz left the restroom wondering what prison was.
-K'Lynn is spending her second summer working at Josh's work. It's a great place that provides really good experience for her. She has recently found out that they are going to give her an opportunity to have a flexible job through the school year, so that will be spectacular!
-For the first summer since Chaz has been born, Kandace is not doing EYT this year. She wanted to go to Girl's camp, and when I wouldn't guarantee the exactness of how I could get her back and forth exactly the way she wanted, it was a no go! She got a 4.0 on her report card, and is super intelligent and fun!
-Josh is working on his Master's Degree. Life is SO CRAZY right now! Never ending and always changing.
-I am working at Sutter Physician Services PRN as a Hospice Triage Nurse and Part time at St. Mark's hospital in Postpartum/Well Baby Nursery (My DREAM Job)! Holy Cow! I am just finishing training, and it is hard, but I LOVE it, and I love bonding with the patients and their families.
I am making a promise to myself to keep up my blog. There are so many great memories on here. I NEED to keep them up!
