Lately I have been totally slacking on blogging. My days have been running together and I feel like I can’t find balance! I’m currently sitting here watching Lethal Weapon with my husband and writing a blog post. I really feel like I need to let it all out as a way to unwind…
New Position at My Job…On January 30th I started a new position at my job. I’m still part-time but I have more responsibility and flexibility with my hours and I have a chance to work with high school students that are taking college courses while they are in high school. It’s been a lot to learn but I’m up for the challenge.
Emma turned 5 earlier this month…my baby girl is 5! I can’t believe she is 5! Man that brings tears to my eyes just typing that! We have come so far; it seems like just yesterday I was discussing her being in the NICU, and now she’s in preschool!
Pancake Brunch…Emma loves pancakes so we had a small family gathering with her favorite foods! Pancakes, Bacon, Hotdogs, Fruit and Chicken Wings! She had an amazing time. I made pancakes with sprinkles…they weren’t the prettiest but they were delicious! I had a Shimmer and Shine birthday theme going and she was wore out afterwards!
Heavy Heart…It’s not close to any milestones or anything but I have been missing Darrick II a lot lately. It seems as if some nights I cant get it together. I just wish I could hug and kiss him like I do Emma and DJ…
Kissing Bandit…DJ has been the kissing bandit lately, I guess he tell I’ve been sad. So he comes up to me and climbs on the couch and kisses me on the cheek, the hand, the shoulder, stomach…wherever, he can reach me he gives me a kiss. And Lord knows I NEED all of the kisses!
Casual Date Night…On Saturday Night Darrick and I had a chance to celebrate Valentines Day early. We dropped the kids off to spend time with their Aunt and Uncle and away we went. We honestly didn’t know what to do with ourselves. We went to the education store for the kids, walked and talked through an outdoor mall, browsed the aisles of the bookstore and finished up at Piada! We had an AMAZING time doing nothing, but it was a chance to spend time with each other and just be Carissa and Darrick (if only for a couple of hours)!
My MacBook is GONE…yeah Im trying not to cry, but my heart is aching! My son was having a tantrum earlier this week, bumped the table and knocked over a glass of water. Usually I move all the cups around me when I get ready to use the computer but this time I missed the mark! It will charge but nothing on my screen! ::sigh:: I mean my computer is my LIFE! But I have to keep going so the hustle is real right now! My husband offered me his computer so right now I am using that along with my parents desktop computer…
What have you been up to lately?
