update on 'us'

ok... so here is an update on us

John and i went to marriage counsiling (twice now) and honestly, I feel we are doing better as a couple! We have been working on 'us' the kids have been with barbara quite a bit and we have just been working on our marriage, we have been hanging out until the wee hours of the morning, we went to a movie, just having some husband/wife time! I was a few weeks pregnant when we got married, so we have never really been a married couple, it's been more of mom and dad instead of Lacey and John. so we are trying to get back to US!! Thank GOD we have family here, I know it's not a lot, and I miss my family more than anything.. but THANK GOD for Barbara!! I mean really!!! THANKS!!

we are doing ok

I don't know if anyone knows, but John and i have been going through some really tough times, as husband and wife, but WE decided we weren't going to give up without a fight, so we are fighting and i *Think* we are winning.. we shall see... it's hard, and it's even HARDER cuz i feel like i am fighting this battle alone, all my family is in utah, and out of the ones in Las vegas, i don't consider mnost of them family, as not many of them have been there for me.. EVER!!! and John has his mom 2 blocks away... so i feel alone, and the people who do know my problmes don't even seem to call me anymore or anything!! kinda pisses me off!!! but what am i supposed to do, i know life gets inthe way sometimes, but man feeling lonely fuckin' sucks!!!

PIF update

Ok... sooo I decided to up my PIF to 5 people.... remember leave a link on the original post below! I only have 1 taker so far! You know you wanna play!

pay it forward....

Ok since I'm in a pretty good mood I'm gonna play. I saw this on my friend kelsys blog (which I check faithfully at least once a day) basically I'm going to give the first 3 people to comment on this thread something handmade by me sometime this year.. it could be anything!! But here's the catch... you have to pay it forward! Post on your blog about it and commit to giving 3 people something.. not that hard right??!! Oohhh and have fun this weekend kelsy!!

finally

Yep I have great news!! John finally got a job. Its been 5 long months sice the accident and he went to orientation this morning! He starts work on monday! And now the gloomy part of it... we only have my car right now(we have his motorcycle, but it needs a new rim and a new battery.. soooo for the next week or 2 or maybe even 3 we have to carpool with eachother! Which isn't such a bad thing except... he leaves (which means we have to leave) at 3am. Ill drop him off at his jobsite, go to my dads house and sleep on the couch until I have to go to work.. which somedays is at 9 am sometimes not until noon. Then when he gets off work at about 1 or 2.. he will either have 2 get a ride, or ride the bus to my work, and sit there until I get off at 6pm. We will then leave to go home, get back to pahrump by 7pm, have enough time to eat and put the kids to sleep! We will be gone from 3 am until 7pm every week day! Its gonna suck! Sooo... if u happen to know anyone who wants to get rid of a car for pretty cheap and/or will take payments until its paid off.. let me know! But... john got a job!!!!!!!!!
