yay! It's my Birthday!
Celebrate! whee xd xd razz

I haven't been keeping up my journal like I should. My life sorta hit warp speed and just now is smoothing out.
Since my last entry I :
Found out I was pregnant.
Wound up in the hospital for 6 days because I was in premature labor.
Got married. heart
Moved into the new house with my husband.
and had the baby!

My husband and I are proud to announce the birth of our son Matthew.
He was born on August 30th and weighed 8lbs. 3oz. and was 20 1/2 inches long.

I wish they had an emoticon with blood-shot eyes or a sleepy one. They would more accurately depict how I feel right now. I am, in a word, exausted.
Every half-hour to 45 minutes I have to scurry to the basement and switch on the pump. Why? That would be becuase our foundation seems to have sprung a leak. The water arcs out of the wall less than a foot from the floor. The sight and sound of it rather remind me of one of those fountains people like to put out in their front lawn. The kind with the naked little boy standing on the edge "peeing" into the basin.
Thanks to my boyfriend (a.k.a Captain Hero, My Knight in Shining Armor, ect.) we managed to rig up a system with vacum hoses and buckets. The hoses snake their way across the entire length of the basement and up into the washbasin, the only sink or drain of any sort in the entire basement.
Also by talking with the neighbors we discovered that not a single house in the subdivision has a floor drain. Apparently the contractor skipped class the day they taught everyone about a little thing called GRAVITY. Water flows downhill dipshit! stressed
I spend my remaining time outside breaking up ice on the patio and attempting to divert the water around the house. This is not what I had planned on doing on Valentines Day. sad

I spent most of January being miserable with the flu. It is a nasty, nasty bug this year and it took me almost five weeks to fully recover. Of course after I got over the intital part of the bug it went down into my chest and turned into Cronic Bronchitius. Whoo such fun.
I finally caved and went to the doctor. he put me on some anti-biotics and wanted me to take Tylenol PM three times a day. Geez! Why don't we just sedate me and leave me in a coma for a few weeks.

I'm sooo tired.
I have a new job and I've been working my tail off lately. I got my first paycheck and of course it went right back out the door for bills.
I'll probally be on the computer a lot more than I have been. We decided to have the cable turned off which will save us something like $400 or so a year. The trade off means we have only one channel and a whole lot of snow. I AM BORED OUTTA MY SKULL.
There is nothing and I mean NOTHING to do in this po-dunk little town so I guess I'll have to just play with my Playstation and work on stuff for my Mini Shop.
sweatdrop

scream Stupid ******** mods changed all the rules for the Mini Shops. So now unless you're really good a pixel art or one of those elitest bastards who rip people off for 10k or more for custom art YOU CAN NOT HAVE A MINI SHOP!
The mods are covering their own asses. They don't give a s**t that you're screwed. scream Bastards!

I'll add stuff here when I feel like it.
Probally rants about people and stuff I hate.

I'm not one of the "shiny happy people" and I don't want to be one of those twits either.
