Family Visit

Lately I haven't been putting many entries in because I've been taking time off from work, and spending time with my family.  In reality, I simply just don't have time to do entries when I'm at home--I'm too busy!  There is either a meal to cook, a mouth to feed, a diaper to change, or dish to wash, or an errand to do with the kids.  Work is funney.  Sometimes I'm working non-stop like I was yesterday, and on other days, work comes to a hault.  So, today is another one of those slow days.  It's almost like my 8 hour break from life.

Yes, my REAL job is at home. 

My cousin's daughter, Tania has finally arrived from Lisbon, and I'm enjoying her visit very much.  I haven't really seen too much of her because the majority of the time she is with her boyfriend, but its almost having another daughter in the house, only this one is 22.  She and her boyfriend, Ruben are such a cute couple, and I think her boyfriend is so nice.  If he is trying his best to impress me, he has.  We all went to a little outing to the ocean, and we had a good time.  It is apparent that they have a real admiration for eachother--like already an old couple, and they both love kids.  My youngest adores his cousin Tania already, and as I watched Ruben carry him off to the beach with Tania on his arm, it was as if I was seeing a picture of their future together--corny as it may seem...  Aw....young love..  I don't think there is anything that tops that feeling, do you? 

So, as for me, I'm off on Friday, doing a family barbecue on Saturday, and then I'm off again on Monday and Tuesday.  Tania is going to off to Las Vegas with Ruben and his family, and I'm expecting my inlaws next week as well.  I have a feeling we are going to have a few more barbecues this month--lots of family and new friends...  But in there somewhere, hopefully, hubby and I will be able to go out on the town ourselves..  We have to see Talladega Nights--it looks really funney.  Anything with Will Ferrell running in his big white underpants has got to be funney! 

 

  Anyone want to babysit?!  

After spending a few weeks with Nicholas, my daughter Elizabeth has decided that she is never going to have kids.  I know that Nick is quite a handful, and I know my daughter's feelings will change one day, but she is not quite 18 yet, and I'm okay with her not having kids right now.  I'm not ready to be a grandma anytime soon; I have a 2 year old at home for God sakes! 

Well, the receptionist is out sick again, but luckily for me I'm not the only clerical today.  Ms. Know It All left a huge mess at someone elses desk which consisted of a lot of unrelated work paperwork.  She not only was on the phone with the phone company trying to hook up service to her new apartment, but using our business fax, with our cover sheet to insurance companies.  Man, for a woman, who claims to "know it all", she sure is clueless! 

Okay, I just finished my cinnamon scone, and I'm almost done with my coffee..  I guess it's time to work, at least pretend to anyway.  I need some files to shuffle...
