I'm the only one on this site right now. Thanks to an incurable state of insomnia. Something has to give. So I've been writing away, commenting etc. and really connecting to you all from yesterday's conversations. Usually I blog about my troubles and I know we do love to hear positive things.

I'm pretty excited right now and it has nothing to do with being a step parent or having step children, I just want to share. Okay with you????

First, we have been under some financial stress, that is why I'm back to work full time and don't post as much anymore. But, we just signed a contract to sell our house, which couldn't come at a better time. This will give us enough money to close on the house we are building that should be ready (hopefully) by Christmas. I thought we were going to lose it. So yippee!!!!!!

Second, since I'm back to work, we needed daycare which is REALLY hard to find. Several places were recommended to me but they had waiting lists. But, we just found this new preschool that opened recently. It is just a few miles from our new house and it is fabulous. They had one spot left for the 2 year old room. Here's the best part. It's a trilingual school. This year is a total Spanish immersion. Next year they introduce English and French. She has to wear a little uniform. Can you believe it. It is a very European education and I love it. I went to high school overseas in England so this is right up my alley, except I can't speak any other languages fluently. I want her to though.

Third, I love being back to work. I feel happier to have my own life again. It is hard to commute etc, but I'm feeling myself again.

So thanks for listening. Hope you have a great day too!
