moving back

mark and i have decided to head back to dfw. we're both looking for work and places to live. i seem to be in some kind of hiring limbo where i'm too overqualified for a lot of stuff and too under qualified for a lot of stuff, leaving just about nothing i am qualified for. i'm planning to go back to school as soon as possible. this is going to seriously be difficult. mom wants me to go to nursing school. i'm starting to think that's not a half bad idea. i just have to find a way to eat while i do it. i'm debating taking down my blog and using my web space to post my resume, etc. we're considering using a resume/ application service.

as a side story, leo is so amazing at manifesting reality its silly. he thinks, i am so lucky, i just find goodness lying around, and then found a diamond in his carpet while cleaning it while moving out. i suppose i am as well. i think, moving back to dfw is going to be difficult and so far it's tedious as hell and exhausting. thankfully, i gave away all of our furniture, so we have very little to move.

summer time

I think I need some kind of summer plan. Alex asked me what we were planning for the summer while we chatted a month ago or so, and I just listed off our vacation plan for August. He pointed out that was like a week at most, and now I see his point. Right now we spend like 2 hrs a day learning to read, write, count and do developmental tasks like jump on one foot. The rest of the time I thought we'd spend outside, but the kids allergies go crazy every time we go out and so do mine and we all get sick. My ears have been ringing on and off all week and so I have no desire to fix the pool and sit out in the pollen more.

What should I do for the rest of the day? So far we watch way too much tv. I'm actually looking forward to new SpongeBob. This is not a functional plan for the next 2 months. I guess its time to schedule some craft time. Finger paints and glitter here we come...
