Still here...Day Two.

Well, I still miss my kids horribly. Especially this morning when I heard that Shelby was up alot during the night. She has not been up in the middle of the night in 3 weeks, and it made me feel guilty for leaving her. I felt and feel, like I should be home with them. I know the woman who is watching them, that if she hears even the slightest little peep out of the kids would go rushing in to their room. I really don't want Shelby to get used to someone picking her up in the middle of the night for little rustles and sighs. But maybe I am just anxious, and maybe it is not really that big of a deal. Maybe I should just enjoy my time with my thoughts, my books and my husband. But honestly, I am anxious because I feel like the can't live with out me (don't laugh, besides I know it's over dramatic:)), I haven't even attempted to pick up one of my books, and my husband is driving me nuts because it does not bother him one bit that we are 3 hours away from our little bund...

Walker, MN

Hey Gang! Right now I am up in Walker, MN! We are having a little getaway, just the two of us, no kids....It's only been about 5 hours away from them, and I tried taking a nap and all I could do was think of them!! I miss them horribly! I want my little baby soooooo bad! Ughhh! Hopefully I'll get over it so I can enjoy my peace and quiet away from home. I hate pumping too. It always seems like it doesn't get all of the milk out and then I end up with some blocked milk ducts. And might I say..., "Ouch!" Oh, and as a side note! I love being home! It's great! I'm not stressed out, it's going so smoothly! I'll update you later on my heartache up in Walker....

Last day!

Oh, by the way! Today is my last day of work! They had a potluck for me, and everyone had such nice things to say! I am really going to miss the people I work with and work for. The other day in Walmart, I saw an owner of one of the group homes we had gone in to to help one of their clients. We did a lot of work with him. He would headlock people and get very anxious, was very, to the T, routine. He did so well, with us! Anyway, I said hi to her and asked how things were going. She said great! She then said, "Thanks again for your help." And for the first time, really, I felt good about the job I have been doing. I hadn't really felt that before. So today when I came in to work, I really thought I was going to feel no emotion towards the part of leaving the workforce. But I sat here and was a little sad that this was the last day I would be helping the people that used this service. I will also miss the people in my office. They have always been wonderful, with words of ...

It was my birthday!

Yep. Tuesday I turned 27!!! It wasn't so bad. In fact I spent the day in pure relax mode. I awoke on a beautiful Tuesday morning to a light breeze that caressed my face and sunshine that soaked in to my pores and warmed my soul. I turned over in bed and looked at the clock. WHAT? It was seven in the morning. Shelby's first homemade birthday present to her mother. " Thank you Shelby!" I exclaimed. As I got out of bed, I mosied on up the staircase, and straight ahead of me was a little note, in black permanent marker..."Happy Birthday Megan. I love you very much! ~Love Tom." Aaaww. The rest of my day went well. I did some laundry, played with the kids, made meals, and talked on the phone. But to start the day out like I did was very wonderful. The kids were great and I felt so content. That night my mom watched the kids and Tom and I went out. I chose the Green Iguana in North Branch. It's this cute little Mexican Restaraunt. I love their food, but I most...

"Running just as fast as we can...."

I love that song, it continues, "....holding on to one anothers hand. Trying to get away in to the night and then you put your arms around me as we tumble to the ground and then you say, I thinnk we're alone now, there doesn't seem to be anyone around. I think we're alone now, the beating of our hearts is the only sound...." I love that song! Songs make me soooo happy! I went running again on Saturday, and I listen to some funky Nelly Furtado on my run and then my cool down is some relax rockin' U2. It is so freeing to be out there running alone, well, I bring my dog, but you know what I mean. The sun is shining, I know I am doing something good for myself, and it's just me and my music. But cue the evil villian music...I hurt my hip. I am now officially getting old. So now I'm sad because I can't exercise until it feels better, and so I am soooooo bummed because I'm on a streak! Uggghhhhh! ***Change of subject**** My in-laws, are not excited...
