Wow! What a month we have had...first was the possibility of moving. I can now say that we decided to stay where we are, we will still plan on putting our house on the market within the next few months so we can find something bigger with my mom moving in but we are staying here, the whole school situation for the kids just did not sit well with me and that is the main reason we nixed the idea.
During our trip to Florida and Disney I hurt my foot. I did not think it was hurt too bad and continued about my business only to have aches and pains in my toes, foot and leg by the end of the day. I finally went and got it looked at, xrays showed no break but they wanted to MRI it just to be sure. That came back showing nothing so it looks like I did a lot of nerve damage. I have been in a "cast" boot since Nov. 15th. I will start Physical therapy on Dec 10th and see the Ortho Dr again Dec 13th.
This was the first Thanksgiving since my dad passed in February. We got through surprisingly well but it was still hard not having him here. My mom has started packing up her house too so she can be ready to move after the first of the year. Right now she will probably stay with Kathrine and Jared until we get stuff going with listing our house and finding something else. She still has not found a job and will lose her benefits as of Feb unless she gets a job before then. Pray she will hear from the resumes she has sent out or something will come along for her with benefits soon.
Once a year I become a single mother for a week while Chris goes to a conference in Las Vegas of all places. So he was gone this past week and this is the first time that nothing happened, it was a typical school week and the kids were good all week.
I got the tree up last week and decorated with all my snowmen. Now that Chris is back he can get the rest of the Christmas decorations down from the attic and we can get the rest of the house looking festive:)
Our anniversary is this Thurs the 6th. Hard to believe it has been 10 years already! For our anniversary I get to take Grace to see High School Musical on Ice and Chris is taking Camden out to dinner. We are going to see the Connells later in the month so that is our night out.
I am getting ready to get in the fudraising mode again. The school is raising money for new playground equipment and I am on the committee to come up with fundraising, this is separate from the PTO fundraising committee. Between now and March 14th I am going to eat, sleep and breath in the preparations that we have to do for our first major fundraiser. I will post more information on that after the first of the year.
Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and that you will have a Merry Christmas!
