Nothing Noteworthy....

I don't really have anything to write about. But I'm trying to keep busy so I don't eat. Yep. New Year's goals again. To lose the 6 pounds I gained over my vacation. Only day 3. Boring. Especially because it is so cold outside they've cancelled school the last 2 days. Tomorrow is already cancelled, so I'm just assuming Friday will be too. And when it's cold, I love to bake. It's my comfort on blustery snow filled days. Because I have no restraint when it comes to eating what I bake, I'm trying to avoid the kitchen altogether. Bleh.
Having the kids out of school an extra week hasn't bothered me this time around. Wierd. I think it's because Presley is easily entertained following them around. When they are gone, she follows me. And I don't think I'm that fun to follow. It's actually easier when they are home. Sometimes. Not enough to pull them out of school easy. But nice enough that I'm not dreading the next 2 days. It also helps that Shawn has been getting his post call days off. He was off yesterday, and he'll be off tomorrow too. He's worked it out with his partner so they can do that sometimes. They have to stick around town in case something comes in that they need an extra hand, but usually after lunch time he's free to go as he pleases. Nice. All our hard work is finally paying off. I know I say that a lot. But. When you've been where I've been, it's really hard not to appreciate all the little things. Like actually seeing your husbands face around. Monday Jack came in my bedroom and said "Where's Dad?" When I told him he was at work he just kind of looked at me funny. It used to be Shawn would get a funny look when he was home. Because it was such a rare occurance. It's just nice to be where I'm at.
On a totally different note. We might be moving into our house early February as opposed to May 1st. Shawn is checking out different lenders and trying to get us the best deal. If it all comes together soon, then we'll close early. If the best deal for us isn't available until later, we'll wait. Because moving early was just sprung on us recently, we are good either way. It would be fun to be all unpacked and completely organized while the kids are in school and before summer comes though. We'll probably know by tomorrow.
I'm ending this boring post. Even I'm bored by it. I guess I'll go fold the laundry. Maybe if I pretend there is chocolate hidden at the bottom of the pile I'll get it done faster.....
