New things...

Okay.. first of all... YAY.. I figured out how to change my blog around. I wanted something fun.. not just a boring background. So.. I will most likely be trying new backgrounds out. I'm not sure about this one. I love love love red. But, I think it's hard to read the text. So.. things may change.. who knows. Change isn't always bad. Well, that's about all I have right now. Life is pretty boring. Seems like I've been working tons. I think this week will be a lot less overtime. Which is good and sucks at the same time. I like the money that comes with overtime.. just not the hours. But, at least I will be able to get things done around the house.

Take care everyone. I hope you all are doing well. Adios for now.

Trying to get in the mood...

I'm still trying to get in the Christmas mood. It's been so hard. It's so close to Christmas and I could care less. I so love Christmas. It's my favorite holiday. This year.. not so much. We were so hoping for a wonderful Christmas present (ie being pregnant). We are trying to get over that. Yes, we have moved on to pursuing adoption, but that doesn't mean I'm not sad I can't have my own child. I still get really sad. I've been really sad the past couple of days. Most likely because I have been out and about Christmas shopping. It's hard to see all the families out together. And all the kids waiting in line to see Santa. Will I ever have that in my life? It just makes me sad. I know better things are coming.. I just have to wait for them. Waiting sucks!!!!! I just want a baby!

On a happier note Jeff and I went to his Christmas party for the police department. It was a lot of fun. Of course I helped plan part of it. I think everyone had a great time. I was really glad Jeff took the night off. It was nice to spend time with him. We don't do much of that because he is 2nd shift. We hate this shift, but we've gotten use to it. You just have to make the best of what little time we get to spend with each other. I actually had a glass of wine. It's the first wine or anything that I've had in over 3 years. I have to say it was yummy! :) Good times were had by all! I have posted the only 2 pictures that I have from that night. I'm hoping to get some from other people that were there. My camera is just too big to stick in a pocket. I guess that's the price you pay for not wanting and getting a smaller camera. On another note.. we are suppose to get yucky ice tonight and tomorrow. Gotta love it. I wish we'd get the snow but OH NO.. we have to get that crappy ice. I'm just hoping it won't be as bad as last years ice storm. That was crazy. Everyone was out of electricity for days and days (except Jeff and I.. we have a major power thing by our house so it's on the priority have to fix so others can be fixed so we are one of the first ones to get electricity first in the city).

Anyway. Well, I hope everyone is doing well. I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!
