Don't stress, stop worrying, everything is going to work out..this is what I keep telling myself. Yet I can't seem to stop thinking about this whole house situation. The current tenants have caused us all nothing but stress, they're lazy, irresponsible, and just plain deceiving. There's already been a whole bunch of drama and the most recent being that they were finally supposed to move out yesterday, hand over the keys, and we were going to do a walk through before funding escrow on Monday. Well..Friday no one can get ahold of the tenant and when they finally do she tells them that SHE JUST CALLED section 8 for the inspection on the new house they're trying to rent but of course due to furlough days government offices are closed the last Friday of each month. So the stupid (yes I said stupid, I'm irritated so that warrants the childish name calling) tenant waited all these weeks until the day she is suppose to move to call them and let them know they need an inspection. So now who knows when an inspector is going to go out and we have to close escrow this upcoming week or we lose our contract with the seller and our interest rate that we locked in. To extend everything is nearly $1000 that we will have to pay..we are NOT going to pay for something that was completely not our fault. I'm so nervous to hear whats going to happen on Monday, something needs to be done and they need to get out! They've lied to everyone before and are so irresponsible, this is the 2nd time they've done something to postpone closing escrow. I'm assuming section 8 doesn't pay for their portion of the rent on the new house until it gets inspected and they don't want to or can't pay the whole rent themselves. I don't mean to be a jerk but they've had over a month and a half and they are causing the seller and us to loose money all because they don't have there crap together. Ahhhh I want to scream!! I'm just HOPING that some kind of miracle will happen and they'll get an inspector to go out Monday and we'll have the keys Tuesday..its a long shot but hopefully!
So I've done terribly with my diet, ughh I'm embarrased to admit that I've actually gained 2lbs :(
I just need to stop snacking on junk all day. I did so well when I had GD, I ate every 2 hrs..always had protein and fiber in each snack/meal. I'm feeling very discouraged at this point. The good thing is that I'm making an effort to make sure I do something active 4 days a week. Monday I had the best workout I've had since before I got pregnant with Madi..then the other 3 days I went running and worked out with the Wii. Hopefully this upcoming month will be better.
I think the house thing has me stressed out more than I can bare. I've been so angry all the time, its not like me. I just want to relax and have our house already. On a good note I've been spending more time with Jayden and making sure he doesn't feel left out. He is still testing me but I'm learning to deal with it on my own since Joe's at work most of the time. Madi, oh my love bug..She's just so funny. Joe says she's going to have his sense of humor, as much as I hate to admit it..I kinda hope she does too :p
So I'm happy to say...that I haven't gotten Starbucks!! Monday will be 2wks, yay me! Its been hard, I know it sounds stupid but I think that its more of a psychological addiction lol I almost gave in a few times, especially the first week. But I'm happy I didn't. I guess I better get ready to run to the bank and the Target. Hopefully I can update Monday wit good news!

Hello
Originally started this on 01/01/10 with a recap of 2009 but never finished so here I am at it again. Madilynn is asleep and who knows for how long so I'll make this quick.
I'm starting this off by stating a goal..a weight loss goal, blah! I have gained 10lbs back that I lost after having Madilynn. I NEED to stay focused and motivate myself to get back on track. So as of today I weigh 170lbs my goal is to weigh 155lbs. I know I can attain this goal, I just need to avoid Starbucks! So I am going to start off small and make a pact with myself and not go to Starbucks for 2 weeks, ahhh that seems like forever but I know I can do it. Oh and also work out 3-4 days a week no excuses! Here's to a healthier me!
So today Madilynn turned 5 months, I can't believe it! Where has the time gone!?! I remember a year ago fighting fatigue and morning sickness, barely being able to get out of bed. What a crazy roller coaster of a pregnancy that was! She's getting so big and it seems like every day she learns something new. She can semi sit by herself but only for a few seconds none the less I am still proud :p She is also eating a lot of new foods, her fave are sweet potatoes just like her brother. I'm excited to see her crawl and get teeth in but can also wait so I still have more time treasuring my sweet little baby.
Jayden, whoa where do I begin? We used to be so close and I know that the distance is all my fault, I feel like I don't give him enough attention. I feel really guilty about this and am going to work on making more alone time with him. He is starting to talk back and act out when he doesn't like something he is told to do. It drives us nuts! But I really think he feels left out sometimes and I want to change that. The good thing is that he doesn't have any kind of jealousy or resentment towards Madi, he absolutely adores her! He's been wanting to be a big brother for so long and he's such a great brother to her. We plan on taking a family vacation to Disneyland this Spring, he's going to love that. We've been wanting to take him for so long and I think we've finally got the timing down right. Of course it'll be Spring break and they'll be crazy busy but oh well, we'll have fun regardless.
So this is it, my little diary entry for the day. Better get some sleep tomorrow we'll be driving to Turlock and paying Joe's college tuition for the semester, fun...not! I shall continue this blog in hopes that I find peace within myself through expressing the words I feel and the memories I've experience everyday with my wonderful family.
peace and love <3
