Same old, same old. Still working till midnight everynight. Still not seeing my husband very much. Still no time to blog.
I love you all!

I have been working all week. I like the job, the hours suck. I get off work at midnight, race home and try to spend a couple minutes with my husband. The kids are already in bed at this point of course. The next morning I wake up, get the kids up, get Chunk off to work, shower, bathe and feed the kids, everyone gets dressed, try to clean the house, then after that it's almost lunchtime. After lunch, it's time to drop the kids off at Guh's house and it's off to work I go. So I see my husband for approximately 3 waking hours. Sleeping next to someone is not what I call quality time. I see the kids for about 5 hours. My days off are Saturday and Sunday. Chunks only day off is Sunday. Sunday we go to church so that eats up another 3-4 hours of our "together time". But Sunday evenings are all for us. It's  gonna be great. I am really looking forward to tomorrow.
Blah.
I just wanted to complain about something.
I really like my job. I can't believe so many people quit there all the time. There are lots of incentives and perks to working there, and all of the people are so nice. The training is extensive as well, and I feel really comfortable being there. This opinion is subject to change at any given moment, but as for right now, I am really enjoying my job. My only gripe about my job is the hours, as you have already read. When I get out of training, I will be geting off work anywhere between 9 and 11 pm, which is better, but still not great. I miss my husband when I am at work. I think it makes us really appreciate the moments we do get to spend together so much more.

I recieved our wedding picture CD's in the mail today, I am itching to look at them. I want to wait for Chunk to get home from work and look at them as a family, but somehow I think I might end up sneaking a peek before then. I just can't wait, the anticipation is killing me!!!

Our little family is shaping up nicely. We had a few rough spots recently, and had a couple of arguments over the most stupid things. I think that is all water under the bridge now. Things feel very peaceful, and I have never been so happy in my life. The kids are really happy too, and they warmed up to Chunk rapidly. They refer to him as Dad now. He takes such good care of them in the evenings while I'm at work. He has them from 6 pm until i get home, and so far he's done a fabulous job.  When I get home the kids are already bathed, in their pajamas and slumbering silently. They love him so much. now when they wake up at night crying, they call for him instead of me. It makes me sad a little, but also makes me smile. they know that they can rely on him, and that's a beautiful thing. I could go on and on all day about all of the awesome-ness of my husband, but for the sake of space and time, I will just end it there. I will just say this, he is the most wonderful husband on the planet.  He really should win a husband of the year award. :)

I am going to go gather up laundry and do some dishes now, but I will try my hardest to keep updating on a regular basis. Love you all!

     Hola People. My children have been running me ragged lately and I have a million things to do (like play neopets, heh) other than blog. But I shall try to keep up now. I still read everybody elses blog though. My life is far less interesting in my opinion.
     So, I got a job at Startek. I work from 3-midnight for the next 3 weeks and than after that I work in the afternoons and evenings. I am working on the Qwest project there and everyone who works there says it is brand spanking new and it way better than anything else they have ever had there. I am looking forward to working, not because I am a masochist, but because I am money-hungry.  Chunk's been working at this payroll advance place. He doesn't like it, but it's a job, and we need him to work *somewhere*.
     Being a newlywed is so friggin' awesome. We've had our share of minor quibble quarells, but overall, it is splendid. I love him so much, and I am totally convinced he is the male version of me-scary, I know. We finish eachothers sentences and everything, it's so durn cute. There are so many times when we're having the exact same thought about something. Me loves me some Chunk!
     Chunk and I are on this quest to learn 2 new languages. Spanish and Dutch. At first i wanted to learn Spanish first because it's more useful and practical. We're learning Dutch instead. It's way more fun. It's not a very commonly known language and it's more fun to talk about people right in front of them using it. I also like Dutch because it sounds like Russian on crack.  I learned 8 words last night, fun stuff. We're setting aside time everyday to work on our Dutch. Chunk has already studied it so he is way far ahead of me, but it's still loads of fun.
     We are supposed to get our picture discs from our wedding in the mail in the next couple days, so check back because I am gonna blog them :)
Until then, later taters!

Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. I've just been bumming around and adjusting to married life and stuff. I got a job at Startek. I get mixed reactions about that place, some people think it sucks really bad, others think it's grand. I personally think....it's a job. I am just thankful to have one at all. Chunk also found a job already. He started yesterday. He's an assistant manager at a payroll advance place. He works in Decatur, and once a week at the Taylorville store. Things are going pretty well around here.
The 4th was fun. Erica and Ian came over. Erica brought her friend Aaron and we all ate and goofed off and lived it up like the nerdy kids we are. Mike Hagan had mentioned coming over to me, and to Erica a couple times. Come Sunday night, no sign of Hagan. We called the cell number he gave us to no avail. It says it is not a valid Verizon user. Whatever Mr. Snob. So we called his house and found out he had to work till 10. So much for that.
We got this ice cream maker for a wedding gift and we've been using it like crazy. We have homemade ice cream close to every day now. If anyone wants to come over for some, call me!
Hmm what else. I got some new pajamas.
OOOh I know!! I am addicted to this site called www.neopets.com. It is so much fun. You have a virtual pet and you feed it and stuff (sometimes mine go into dying mode) and there are tons of free games on the site. The little yellow guy to the right of this blog is my first-born. His name is MiZeKe the Kacheek. Anyways, they have a referral program on neopets. If you refer 10 people you get the infamous paintbrush. Those cost like a million dollars in neo currency. My 10 year old sister plays neopets (she got me into it) ad she's been wanting a paintbrush really bad so I decided to refer people to get her one as a surprise. I have 9 referrals so far. I need ONE more person!! I know one of you readers is dying to have a neopet and join my neofamily!! To sign up click on MiZeKe over there --> and create a pet. It's fun I swear, and totally free. I am so hooked, I can't get away from that stupid site.
Anyways, I need to take my rugrats to South Shores park to play for a bit, they are getting a little stir crazy. I love you all!!!

ARGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Last night Abbey and I took the kids to Arthur. They had WWII planes flying around with big fireballs bursting when they swooped over to simulate bombs being dropped. Then they had a bunch of skydivers. The skydivers were making everyone nervous, because a couple of them were doing tricks like flipping all the way upside down, and spiraling wildly towards the ground. They all landed fine and we all breathed huge sighs of relief. The fireworks show wasn't set to start until 9:30, but at 9:35 there were still no fireworks and the MC announced a cable had broken and they were waiting for someone to drive a new one over from Bethany. We were sitting on bleachers next to am Amish family who had the cutest little boy. Hollie thought he was pretty cute too. The fireworks finally started almost 40 minutes later and the first bang scared Bubba and he started crying. He was fine after I picked him up though, and started oooohing and ahhhhing and pointing his tiny little finger towards the sky. He clapped and screamed YAY after each burst of color. We had such a great time. Abbey and I ordered a funnel cake, mozzarella sticks, nachos, and strawberry shake-ups and ate so much we both felt really sick. Maybe it was food poisoning from a rotten strawberry, who knows. Chunk didn't come with us. I was really sad and missing him a lot last night. I wubs my chunkers!! Anyhoo, that's all for today folks. Love you all!
