some stuff going on with us...

Well first off, here's my cute little baby to watch. Yeah this video is like 2 minutes long, but he's so dog-gone sweet you just have to watch it all. :)


So, what can I say about our lives at the moment? I feel like everything sucks to be honest! My job is completely and horribly unbearable! I mean it. Every day I leave there wanting to scream at the top of my lungs and kick someone or something. I can't stand the stress and frustration it brings me. I want so bad to take more control of how I feel about it, but some things are beyond me just grinning and bearing it. There are many moments (especially at the end of my work days) when I'm sure I can't endure one more little thing. And I'm not even certain I'll come back the next day. But alas, that darn money thing just keeps me coming back for more torture. I don't hate what I do, I just hate how I'm treated... by my customers on the phone, by the company (overworked, too much work for the hours I'm there, high expectations, etc.), by certain people in the office, attorneys, banks, stupid women who work in tow yards, and all sorts of other people who forget the person on the other end of the phone is just trying to bring home a pay check like everyone else. Gosh, why do people make what I do so personal? I don't. I don't usually give my people as second thought. Anyway, enough about that because it just makes my blood boil. I really need some form of stress relief.

Like Elijah for example. He's so wonderful! I know everyone says it, but mine is the best baby EVER. :) He's 30 weeks old today. Not crawling or rolling over or sitting up yet, but I think that's ok. He's growing and developing fine, just at his own pace. He's such a joy to us. We're totally ridiculous about him -- always saying "Honey look, he stuck out his tongue." or "watch the way he grasps at my hand." or "did you hear that big burp?". It's so silly. We're just in love.

We got lots of freezing rain, sleet, and ice today. The roads were ugly and I'm sure the commute tomorrow will be great. I'm so ready for spring. This weekend it was 64 degrees (maybe higher) on Sunday and we had some much needed outside time. So nice!

Well it's past my bedtime and I still have to feed Elijah before I can go to sleep. I'm out.
