I haven't been able to post anything lately because I have a nasty virus on my computer. It gives me about 1 pop up every 30 seconds and won't allow me to stay connected. It's been a royal pain!! Rogers cable is supposed to come by on Friday to switch from Aliant and put on a free Norton Antivirus on the computer...hopefully that will do the trick!
Aliyah and Brooke have been keeping me busy! Brooke is now scooting all over the place now. I really have to keep my eye on her because one minute she's in by Aliyah's bed and the next she's in the hallway by the bathroom! So far she has eaten peas, carrots, squash and bananas. Her favorite to date is peas by far. The others have given her the most sour face I have ever seen!! Kenny said that when he fed her squash that she actually spit it out across the room and hit Aliyah with it.
Aliyah has been eating Flinstone vitamins and told me today as soon as she ate it "Look Mommy! I'm getting bigger!!" She keeps telling me that she wants to be a big girl. I asked her today if she was going to tell me that she loves me even when she gets to be a teenager and I'm an old lady.... she said she would so I'm going to hold her to it!
Aliyah is getting very excited about Halloween and being able to go out Trick or Treatin! She's got her Tigger costume and we also bought her a little girly costume with a kitty on it along with a witches hat...she looks soooooooooo cute in it! We also carved our first pumpkins! Her arms were in it up to her elbows trying to pull the seeds out of them. I got lots of pictures and will scrapbook them! Can't wait!
This month hasn't been a good month for news! My best friends nanna passed away, who she was really close to.... I feel really bad!! She was telling me a story about her and I got all teary eyed....her nanna was the type of woman every child would want for a grandmother. She had an unbelieveable soul and personality....
The same day I heard that, I also got a phone call saying that almost everyone of my coworkers have lost their jobs. There are only 4 of us that kept our positions and the remainder have been told that they will be done by March. What a shock that was. I really wasn't expecting anyting like this to happen. The really sad thing about it all is that these people are really good people. I have made some really great friendships and it's VERY sad to see them have to go through this. Guilt is the only word I have to describe how I feel about having one of the few positions left. I truly feel horrible and saddened deeply from it all.
Also, on that very same day, I chipped my bottom tooth in half from biting into bacon (it was crispy to say the least). Yup, from grinding my teeth so bad during the night. Now I always slip my tongue in it and makes it even worse.
This week I found out that one of my friends is in the hospital and has been for quite some time. I called her just to let her know that I was thinking of her and to offer her any type of help that I could possibly do. She's a good person and a wonderful friend.
Needless to say, these past few weeks haven't been the greatest!! Hopefully next month will be different.
