Good Morning New Home

Hell Yes to my first May Post! To my right Aries is asleep, asleep and full of motion, and further to my right is something new. Blinds and behind those blinds a balcony. Straight forward is a large Bob Marley banner something that used to hang in our 309 living room. Something feels different. Warm… Cozy maybe… It feels like home. We are not facing the courtyard any longer, we are facing the street. Some how there is something comforting about the sound of a car driving against the early morning breeze. We have almost the exact same layout as we did before only this feel so different. What is new? We now have to full bathrooms instead of one and a quarter and we have two balconies, as earlier mentioned we now face a different direction and we have new flooring in the kitchen. Our paint colors, by the way, actually turned out as close to perfect as humanly possible! : ) Although I was looking forward to our new house… Two things make staying in an apartment building ok… One something about this particular apartment feels soothing and Two I would do anything for my mom and for right now she needed me here I can only hope to be as good of a daughter to her as she is a mother to me! I left my coffee pot upstairs. I cant believe I left my coffee pot up stairs! : o
As always thanks for reading my random ramblings.

Love Always, Mommy of a Jamexican!

Crazy week


Should have made more than eight cups! Is it nap time already? Aries is napping behind me on the couch and Jacques to my right. It almost seems rare to have all three of us in the house at the same time. Its been a long work week, Jacques now works full time(while going to school full time) and I have been working almost full time. A definite adjustment from both hardly working part time. We were so fortunate to have spent so much time with Aries for the first six months, but when great opportunity comes along its hard to say no, hopefully it will lead back to me being a full time stay at home mom. Crazy because I have been working since I was 14 had two jobs at 16 was a district manager by 18 while having another part time job. I LOVE TO WORK. I never expected to want to stay at home, but spending the day with my son is the best work I could ask for! Get ready for one of my great transitions… Its going to be a good weekend. I am really looking forward to moving into our new apartment. However I am beyond scared of what Jacques is going to say when he sees the color in the kitchen lets just say… it did NOT turn out to be anything like the color swatch we chose. We of course can always re paint it but it probably wont be as good of quality as the professional painters who are painting it now. What can you do? We will make the best of it. We are pretty good at that! : ) as always thanks for reading my random ramblings!

Love always, Mommy of a Jamexican!
