Only a Week and and Half left with my Angel girl....

Yeah ......Bummed about that...Manisa and I leave on the 6th to take her up to North Carolina to be with Patrick...UGH! How sad is that???? You should have seen the look I got from Manisa when I said (Innocently enough mind you) that I would be more than happy to keep Kairi with me and she can go up????? I have no clue why she didn't go for it....hahahahaha....I am going to miss her but I am planning on long weekend trips to go up....I found an airline that hopefully....will at least keep prices reasonable for plane fare...Independence Air...or Flyi.com as it's called...I got a return ticket for the 11th of April and all told I only paid $109.00 for it...They are currently running specials for $58 dollars each way...while they don't fly everywhere....they do fly to Raleigh North Caroline and I can rent a car from there...I plan on doing that alot! hahahaha....I am going to miss her tremendously....She is such a joy to me...But Manisa needs to be with Patrick....I guess I can understand that....:)

I really hope everyone had a good Easter as well...We did things a little different this year...First off the traditional ham was changed to a Turkey...Mike loves turkey so I made a small one...We colored about 3 1/2 dozen eggs (for which will become egg salad as the week wears on!!!) But the biggest change we made was in doing the easter baskets...For the past 3 years Mike and I have noticed that Candy gets left forever at our house (don't ask me how it happens-I have no clue) but it does...I have a huge tupperwear container full of Halloween candy that is about to get chucked...The same thing happens with Easter Candy...We spend a ridiculous amount of money on candy and it takes months to get eaten...So Mike and I looked around and we got each child a pre-made one with toys in it....it had some candy in it but more toys than anything...You know what??? They were a huge hit...The kids loved them....Hey an at about $10 each kid...not to bad a deal for the whole kit and kaboodle...Ah Life is good......

Also....Some Good news about my job somewhat....While this is the week from hell...My job won't end on April 1....My boss had been realizing that she was going to need a couple of people to stay past migration until June 4th...(That's when the rest of it migrates) She had recieved permission to keep one girl but now has permission to keep 2...so I will be working here still until June 4th....Then I am actually taking the summer off...And having a house guest...Since my sister Diane is still having it rough...Dad and I are getting together (He's checking his miles as we speak) and going to get my nephew Justin down here for the entire summer...He's been told and he's is just busting at the seems to get down here...He loves to come down and since all this has happened with my sister he's been in the middle of it too and that poor kids needs some normality in his life...I am so excited about him coming down as well....If Diane can swing it she may come down as well but I told her let's just get a roundtrip ticket for him in case that falls thru....He is going to have a blast with my kids...The last time he was down here, he and Glen were like two peas in a pod...This is going to be a great summer for the kids....I will concentrate on finding a job when summer ends...I don't think that will be too much a problem....


Well...that..I think...pretty much gets everything up to date....I think...hahahaha...It's just really really busy here at work....Too much to do and no time to do it! hahahaha.....Oh well...Everyone is just hanging in there ready to supply the boss with drugs so she doesn't have a nervous breakdown!

Talk to you all later!!!!
