Spring Has Arrived!....

....Well so it says in my taskbar. I haven't really been out much. During the week last week I was out for a while helping in the back yard but that was about it. The fence is up and looks really great. Now were working on putting in a patio area and fixing up the lawn, ill have pics soon. The fence makes the yard look so much bigger. The dogs love it. We still have to watch buster though, cuz he's so little that he can still get through the openings around the gate doors, the little bugger showed that little stunt the other day and almost had to put the smack down on him thinking he's the shit. But I showed him who's boss. So now I have to stand out there with him so he doesn't try any fancy moves. he's just used to getting his walk. Rocco is in heaven. He runs around and throws the ball all around and has such a great time with himself. he's a good boy. Rocco is a rot if you didn't' know. There are pics here of them if you want to see.

so I've been trying to schedule myself a little better so that I can actually get outside and move around. Do something other than work and sleep. My body is not doing well just sitting here. That's for sure. I need to get moving and motivated, go outside and walk around, do some yard work since there is so much to be done anyway....And especially now that the weather is getting so much nicer and I'm feeling so much better now....I need to get active again. The job search is really bumming me out. I'm not understanding why it is so difficult for me to get a job. I'm really trying very hard not to pull the "fat" card here, but when you apply for jobs that are so very much in my line of work and you don't hear back from anyone.....It gets really discouraging. Giving up however...Is not an option. Never will be. Ill just keep working at home until something comes along and then the work at home gig can just be for some extra cash....Like it should be. Not that I'm not grateful for this, but I would literally have to work 24/7 to make any real money. Which is pretty much what I do. Except today. I took the day off.

Sarah and I were supposed to go into Chicago today to take care of school stuff but that has been postponed and instead we went to the movies to see Beauty Shop which out of 10 I give it an 7. It was pretty funny and just a nice story of a woman making her dreams come true and succeeding. We went to the $2.00 show. Well worth the price of popcorn.

so while I've been working over this weekend I've been doing Origami. You would think that this would be simple. Let me just tell you .....It is not. But I have managed to make a heart. It was pretty simple. I don't have the right paper I know, but I'm going to get some and perfect this art. Its really cool all the neat things you can make with this paper. The roomies daughter has all kinds of craft books down here that I was reading on my down times waiting for calls and this stuff is just fascinating!!

I know....I really need to get out more....Ugh

I've also been thinking about making jewelry again. While sitting here waiting for calls I could bang out some cool stuff. Maybe sell them on eBay! Hey there's a thought. LOL

Sarah turns 18 this month (April 24th for those who would like to send her a card, ill post the email later). Just seems like yesterday when she strolled into my life. My how she's grown, so fast....LOL. she's really excited about it too. I keep asking her why. She thinks turning 18 is going to be some over the top life change for her when all it really means is that she now has more responsibilities. Bills, work, jail. LOL ...Not that she will ever go there but that means that you are an adult and can be treated as such when arrested. Still......she's excited and I'm happy for her. :) she's a good kid and expect her to be a great adult as well. Still....I'm not sure what to do for her birthday. We went shopping last year. Any suggestions?

well That's it for me, I need to go potty and get some shut eye.

Happy Tuesday!!
hugs, Jeannine
