Just a quick update on my weight loss.  I’ve been dieting for a little over 2 weeks, and I’ve lost 12lbs!!  I have also decided to start Weight Watchers again.  I was able to purchase a 9 week package, so hopefully that will keep me motivated, knowing that I’ve already paid for it.  That should be enough incentive, huh?  We’ll see…

My weight loss blog, Making Mommy Hot is getting a new blog design!  My new friend Jess from Cuppycake Designs is working on it for me, so stay tuned, we should have an unveiling within the next few days.  I’m really excited, because I have been getting so bored with the black and pink theme I’ve got right now.  I’m dying to see what she has designed!  And I may also get her to create something for My Mama Drama as well.

Ok…we’ve got some major decisions coming up over the next few months.  This is what we are facing.  Where we are currently living, our school system really sucks.  From what we have been told, that after the kids finish Kindergarten at the school they are attending now, the schools are downhill from there.   We do have several choices for private schools, but with the kind of money Steven is making now, and me not working, there is absolutely NO WAY we can afford it.  And to tell you the truth, I’m not really sure that they even have a decent SPED program for Christopher and Allie, and right now, that’s our top priority.

So this is what’s going on…

We have been looking around at different places that have a good school system and with a good SPED program.  One place we are looking at, is the Gulf Coast, because we’ve heard excellent things about the schools down there, and it would be perfect considering there are many opportunities for jobs in the casino industry.  Even though, Steven is really tired of working in the industry, he has pretty much resigned himself to the fact that is probably the only way he can make the kind of money he wants to make, considering he doesn’t have a degree.  And these days, most places that are hiring are looking for that.

Since it is almost inevitable that we will be moving this summer, should we go ahead and start preparing to sell our house?  Right now, in the town I live in, it’s a seller’s market, and I’m thinking we should jump on that.  There have been 3 houses go up for sell on my street in the past few months, and they have all now sold.  I would say that’s a pretty good sign that we should be able to sell our house fairly quickly.  I just don’t want to be forced to try to move and sell our house all at once.

So I could really used some advice on this, if anyone has any suggestions or feedback.  It would be greatly appreciated and welcomed.

We are sick again!  This is the 3rd stomach virus since Thanksgiving and it’s driving me crazy!  It started with Christopher a week ago Monday, and now I’m just now getting over it, and Faith had a couple of yucky diapers yesterday, but seems better now.  Now Emma has thrown up a bottle this morning, and is acting kind of puny.  Steven has made more than one trip to the bathroom already this morning, so hopefully that’s it and we’ll be done.  Allie has already done the diarrhea thing, so I think this will be it.

Now, I’m off to go fold the most humongous pile of clothes that I think I’ve ever seen in my entire life.

My sister and I have been trying to get together for the past six or seven months, and something has always come up or a kid would get sick, and we wouldn’t be able to follow through with it.  Well, as I’m typing this, she should be one her way here to Mississippi from Louisiana!  I’m so excited!  We don’t really have a bunch planned, just hanging out and visiting.  We’ll be back and forth between my house and my dad’s.  It will be a fun time.
