Take kyleigh and maezie! how exciting! wish we had more cash and we would do so much fun stuff while we are here!

So we are in albuquerque and i am realizing how much i miss being in a bigger city! i have already seen about ten places i want to eat and so many places to

Okra is still a vegetable even if its fried, right?

Slacker!!!!

I feel like such a slacker for not updating my blog more often. Oh well.

So I've discovered that as long as I take my daily vitamins/supplements, I do really well and stay on task and get things done and am generally a good wife/mother. If I don't take them, I'm struggling to pay attention and be patient and keep my house clean. Hmmm....

Still waiting for the job situation to get cleared up. *sigh* Pray about that, folks.

I'm beginning to hope that we get to move to the Denver area. It would be SO awesome to live close to my sister-in-law, two brothers-in-law, and three nephews!!! Don't want to live there permanently, as we want to eventually end up somewhere in between Denver and Abilene (like southeastern Colorado or north Texas or northeast New Mexico).

Maezie is cutting FOUR molars at the same time right now. Poor thing!!!

I've been trying to not use the aluminum-containing deodorants and use natural ones instead. I'm having a hard time finding one that ... works WELL. But really, the aluminum ones weren't working particularly well for me either. The women's kinds hardly work at ALL, so I was usually having to buy a men's brand. *sigh* Matt never says that he can smell me, but I can smell me. I have an unusually strong sense of smell though, sort of hound-dog-ish, so I can smell things others usually can't. I think this is a totally unfair problem to have, just FYI - a super strong nose and a stronger than normal odor. I'm using a natural brand right now, and it seems to work fine as long as I remember to reapply every 4-5 hours, which gets annoying. Ideas, anyone? I suppose it's embarrassing to admit all this. Oh well.

I'm feeling very sad for my mom, whose faithful canine companion of 10 years had to be put down on Thursday, due to severe health and pain issues. It was definitely the best thing to do for the dog, but my mom is sad. :( Wish I could be there to love on her.

Speaking of dogs, I really need to re-home my black lab. She's 7, spayed, friendly, good with kids and cats, and healthy. Anyone know of anyone??

Guess that's enough for now. Oh, and yeah, the earlier computer jibberish post came from my cell phone. Occasionally when I send an update via my cell phone, it comes out as jibberish like that. Thought it was because I was using the qwerty keypad, so I switched to using the numeric keypad and it worked just fine. Then this last time I used the numeric keypad again, and it messed up. Who knows?!?!
