Long week...

This has been a truly long week.  Lanie has been particularly defiant this week.  I'm not sure what is going on there but it has been really rough.

I had put in for 18 hours of overtime this week and got 1 hour.  Actually, they gave me three hours on Saturday, 1 hour on, 2 hours off, 1 hour on, 2 hours off, one hour on.  Needless to say, that was not happening.  I live 45 minutes away and was not going to spend the day here!  I gave it away to someone who lives close by and can go home between hours worked.  I think it is going to be awhile before I start getting any decent kind of overtime.  I have 1 hour for next week also.  I'll keep trying.

Oneita and Travis stopped by last Saturday on their way to Florida for family reunion and are stopping by tonight as they head home.  I'm looking forward to seeing them and hearing about thier vacation.   

Lanie also got to ride her first "Noisy" cycle last weekend. It was not with Uncle Ray but instead a freind of the family, Nathan.  She was scared at first but then got into it and enjoyed every second.  She is hooked now.  She saw one that was for sale and told Pappi that he needed to go buy it for her.  Pappi took a video of her on the bike.  I will try to post it, if possible.

So no new pictures this week.  I just did not get any done.

We are looking for a new house now.  This old house is just getting to old and things are just going bad all around.  Our ceiling in our living room is falling down and the landlord is not getting it fixed. It is 113 years old and things are starting to fall apart.  It happens but it is just time to move on.  It is too stressful everytime something goes wrong.  The problem now is finding a place big enough that we can afford. I look online every day but the listings are wrong and I get my hopes up and they are actually for sale not rent.  It is very frustrating.  There are a lot of places in the city but we want the county, South county to be specific.  I don't want to have to drive too much farther, I already drive 45 minutes-30.8 miles one way.  Wish us luck!
