Change is good

So today I had a wonderful conversation with an old friend. We laughed so hard with both our 2 year olds in the background playing and trying to get our attention. :o) We were best friends before we had kids and now that we both have two kids time just slipped away from us. But I hope that we can start getting together and maybe without the kids! Eh...one can hope! LOL

My mom also came over today, it wasn't as good as a visit as we've had in the past few weeks, but I appreciate her coming to see me and making the effort. We will never have the relationship we once had but I am happy where it is now. My kids need to at least know their grandmother.

I am a person that either loves change or hates change, it just depends where I am in my life. For awhile I hated change and I did everything possible to keep things from changing. Well, since I lost my one friend recently, have been so active in MOPS, reconnecting with my mom and old friends, and learning to be a mom to 2 kids - change is good.
Today I deleted a bunch of people off my facebook page. Really, I deleted a lot of people from high school. I just can't take any more drama. I like to watch other peoples drama on TV but not live in drama.
So I took the spring cleaning approach to facebook. If you no longer are a positive person in my life, you're out. I'm sure there will be a few people asking "WTH?" When they realize I have blocked them. But what would I say? "Sorry, you are not a nice person and are toxic to me. So I am blocking you. Have a nice life." But that's really what I am saying just with a lot less words.

Tomorrow night we have a Woman's retreat at Bell Creek church. It's the church that supports our MOPS group. I am really looking forward to it. I am going over to a friends house and then another friend is driving us. Yay!
A friend and I were talking last night about how moms come last. And we do. Not that I complain about it very often. But I am the one up in the middle of the night, up bright and early getting breakfast ready, taking care of the hubby (i make his lunch and set out his clothes) in between nursing Keegan, getting Aidan up and set up with breakfast. It's crazy and the rest of my day is a lot of the same. I sometimes eat lunch and if I do Aidan eats half of it. You'd think I would loose more weight because of that but really I snack all day because we always have some sort of snack out. for Aidan. Anyway, moms really need to take time for themselves. Even if it's 20 minutes watching tv, or reading or surfing the web. Anything that doesn't require work.

Oh and sliced open my pinkie finger today peeling potatoes. It's pretty bad so I am going to have Chris bring home dinner. Oh Jimmy Johns how I love you and your jalapeno chips!
