I have a small novel to share about everything that's gone wrong on. But I don't have the energy yet for that. AND I'm sitting down on the floor because my computer desk is still in Asheville and this isn't the most comfortable position.
But... for now we have a place to live (well.. for 10 months according to the lease)... we're in a one bedroom apartment, but my mommy just sent me money to get the girls a bunkbed so that will help IMMENSELY because then I can sleep in my bed alone again. Still in the same room with the girls, but NOT with a 6-year-old.
The girls started school. A couple days late (you're going to LOVE my 7.5 hours at the health department story) but they're really liking it. Essie has PILES of homework. At this point it's taking about 3-4 hours a night. Oh. My. Toto we are NOT in 4th grade anymore!!!! Gert is having a great time and enjoying her classes and her teachers.
I still don't have a job. That's all I have to say about that.
Hells Embargo is still "working on the issue" that's also all I have to say about that.
I get to see Mr. B a lot. I like that. A lot. I kinda love that guy.
I have acquired a 2nd mother who calls and checks on me and sees how I am doing. It's ok - you can be jealous... I understand.
There's a seemingly stray kitty in our complex. The girls have named "her" Debbie. I badly want to get a kitty and name it Dallas.
This morning I was waking the girls up and we had the tv on, but it was still dark. I turned off the tv, and low-and-behold there are glow in the dark stars on our ceiling. Who knew? Thank you Jesus for that little fun thing. That made us smile.
I promise to tell all soon. And I promise to start reading and commenting again. Promise.

Hang in there girl. It HAS to turn around, right? That's what I keep telling myself. You are together and healthy. And, the girls will LOVE their bunk beds.
Remember Sweetie's bout with cancer? 500K in treatment + no health insurance = depression
See, it could be worse.
Oh hi Lizzy! I'm so glad you checked in. Here's a hug!
I was thinking about your inspiring thank a teacher back to school story last year. I loved that. You're in a different place this year. But the good news is, you'll be in a whole different place still next year. :-)
God, please help Essie, ok?
Glad to see that you are okay and surviving.
Hooray! She's coming back to us! Now...we've just got to get you a job!!!
Been missing you. Things are bound to improve. Hurry back, can hardly wait to read a play by play account of all.
If you want someplace to work it all off, go climb Kennesaw Mt. I'm sure you can even scream at Hell's Fargo there and no one will care or pay any attention.
Ooooo...when are we going to Ikea? And I have my calendar right here. When should I send the girls over? ;-)
I want a 2nd mom!!
Good luck getting situated in your new home and in a new school and in your job hunt. I know everything will come together for you all! Glad Mr. B is around more now. :)
You are in my thoughts and so not forgotten. I am glad that you are settled and I hope that things look up soon.
You could also get another kitten and name it "Little".
I totally understand! I'm in that same boat most of the time. This divorce is sucking the life right out of me. I think moving and trying to find a new job ranks right up there too!
Big hugs,
Rene
AH I have missed so MUCH. ARE YOU HERE IN GA NOW? YOU so have to visit Savannah SOON! You will find a JOB soon. Take care!
Hallelujah, Lizzy's back!
So glad to hear you're hanging in there. And getting to see a lot of Mr. B and Kat (lucky duck).
I hope the job thing works out soon.
Thanks for keeping us updated. You know how we worry.
Don't feel bad about being gone from the blog for a while...you're not the only one. I'm glad the move went well and that you are closer to your beloved. I will be praying for a job for you soon and that things with WF will reconcile soon.
I've missed you Lizzie...I've been MIA too but I keep checking in to see if you have posted...I wanted to know that you were okay. I am so glad you get to see mr. B a lot...it's the little things that keep us going...
Sigh....who would believe that innocent little Lizzy had a blank look on her face when it was mentioned that she needed to get a male kitty named Dallas.
And now she's stealing my shtick....
What should a guy do?
HA! Love Mr. B's comment!
Hang in there, chickie.
xoxo
Wish you luck on the job front. I'm glad to hear from you!
I am glad that you are alive and kicking. I hope things start to work out for you soon.
I am happy to hear you are ok. I've been worried about you and all that's going on. I wish I could help out other than just leaving comments. I wish I had a fab job to offer you but in all honesty I'm not employed myself. I hope you can feel the big hugs and prayers coming your way. Give the girls giant hugs from me too.
You and your girls have each other when things are sucking...hang on to that.
Sounds like you're on the right road now. I'd take that kitty in, if I were you. Debbie, Dallas...doesn't matter, I think she'd be good luck!
Hang in there, things will swing back in the right direction soon, I'm sure.
So glad to hear from you! I know things have got to be increasingly frustrating right now, but you always manage to find the silver lining, which is just one of the many things that I adore about you. Hang in there girl! This too shall pass.
Haha, you funny girl- Debbie does Dallas!
Hang in there.
Glad things are beginning to look up! Sending vibes that a great job comes your way!
