Easter has come and now we have SNOW!!

Easter has come and gone once again.. We had a blast, I loved every minute of it. I'm pretty sure my kids did too. Koye and Imree both got some new church clothes, Koye got a car that changes colors (pretty sure this was his favorite) Imree got a My little pony and plastic eggs (guarantee that is her favorite because she carries them with her everywhere. Cain got some bullets for one of his guns (spoiled) I got Sherlock Holmes, I actually like that movie (I'm thinking it may be the accents!! We went out to my mom and dads and had an Easter egg hunt with Ambers family, Grandma and Grandpa Simper did the best job at hiding the eggs.. and I don't think we even found all of them, the kids had a blast. Then all the grandkids made their own kites out of garbage bags and dowels!! I was so surprised they actually worked (Thanks dad) Grandpa Simper and I got all the kites up and flying, it was so much fun. Ending with an alright night at work! But then how much fun can work be really.
Some update about what has been going on at our house, I'm struggling with knowing where I want to work, I think I like my job then BAM something goes wrong and I hate it and go home and cry every night. I'm really busy right now and I feel so bad that I don't have enough time for my kids but I have to work, I really want to get a new house so have to get some bills paid off ASAP! Oh that reminds me our house if for sale, so if you know of anyone that is in the market send them my way!! It's a great little starter home!! It has been good to us, but we are growing out of it and as soon as I'm finished with school (nursing) which will hopefully be in two years or so, I want to try to talk Cain in to having another kid! Anyway, just rambling on!!
I hope everyone has been doing well and life is good!

Fun times with the camera!!!

Is it really worth it?

I hope everyone has had a great February.. and life is good!! I haven't been doing so great at keeping up on my blog or learning new things on it. But I wanted to write a little note. I have been studying for school and trying to work 36 hours a week and take care of kids, seriously why did I decide to go back to school? I am that retarded!! I guess I see my friends that have gone to college and have a degree and they seem so proper and smart and understand how life is suppose to be! Why can't I be like that without college, why do I need to go? Is it really worth it? I love my family very much and want to do whatever I can for them but am I doing the right thing by leaving them almost everyday to go to school? I'm not even in the program, what happens when I'm in the program? I will never see them and then they will be hurt, I will probably miss out on Kindergarten things for koye.. Seriously I am contemplating on finishing this semester and not my nursing degree.. Should I?

Dr. Willey

I decided it was time for me to go see a doctor. I am doing great at my activity points, kicking my own butt pretty much and not seeing any results, I was getting very bitter. I work nights and weekends and it takes a toll on my lifestyle so there is this doctor here in Blackfoot, he specializes in helping people with this battle, I get to go to him today and see what is wrong with me. I did have some labs drawn and I have a mild case of hypothyroidism which I had no idea, except I was bored at work and decided that I wanted to have my thyroid checked, I'm glad I did because now I know that there is a little something contributing to my NO weight loss. I can't wait to tell you what he says, I have heard very good things about this Dr. I can't wait and who knows what you may have, if your frustrated to the point that it is taking a toll on your home life, like it was me, maybe going and talking to a nutritionist couldn't hurt right?!!!

Thank you thank you

On Sunday I was thinking about how horrible last week was. Then I started to think to myself, why is this week so bad, and why am I continuing to make it bad?! So finally on Friday I pretty much slapped myself in the face and decided to buck up, well that night at work was the worst night I have ever had at work, everybody was on edge and being really moody and grouchy, so then I went right back into my bad mood.. cried all night at work and came home and cried and went to bed for a while woke up and what do you know that day was worse. Cain was mad, my kids were super mad. But I told myself to relax and think about what is great in my life and reasons why I should be happy so, I left my house for work that night and I was ecstatic, I was working with awesome people that are hilarious and Cain was in a better mood and the kids were going to bed!! Finally Saturday night I kicked my bad attitude that I had been having all week because of the following reasons: 
1. I have the cutest kids ever even when they are super moody and don't listen
2. I have a great husband who works hard to support us 
3. I have a house over my head, even though I don't like where I live (but that will change someday!!
4. I have a vehicle to drive to work, so I don't have to freeze my buns off
5. I have my faith in the gospel
6. I HAVE THE BEST FAMILY AND FRIENDS ANYBODY COULD ASK FOR THAT HELPED ME THROUGH MY HORRIBLE WEEK. 
 I want to tell everyone who had to hear my complaining daily that I am sorry and thank you for your kind words and help.
