TIRED WOMAN, MOTHER, and WIFE!!!

Yes, it is hard sometimes being a woman, a wife, a mother, a stepmother, working full time, going to the gym at 5.45 am in the morning. Taking care of the kids after work and then working on websites in the evening when the kids are finally asleep. This descibes my last week and today, Saturday, was also extremely busy. I have also had a cold and I have been coughing so this has not been my best week. But I have enjoyed being back to the gym and I have really had more energy in the evening. That is amazing, having more energy when you are spending more! But that is how it works. When you start working out, you get more energy and feel better about yourself. I am a better mom, better wife and a better housekeeper! My life in a nutshell.

I am starting a new job in one month. I have to buy a new computer for myself since Marel won't sell me the one I am using now. I have to download Joomla on my new computer and learn how to use it. Then move my older websites to that system because I won't be able to use Dreamweaver any longer. I will loose all of my software... So I have a very busy time ahead of me. I won't have time for anything else. The order of my priorities are: My children, my husband, my job, my home, going to the gym, learning Joomla and working on websites, and my family. I will try to give some friends some time. I promise to try :) No quire this year. I have made up my mind.

Enough for now. Going to bed early. You may comment, please :)

JKJ in kindergarten school

Yes. My son is going to kindergarten. What a big boy. He will start September 1st and I am so excited. Now I will have two children in kindergarten school - the same school. Life will be so much easier and it is also going to save us more money. I love it. Also for his developing skills. Asdis is so happy to have her little brother in school with her. She will be a good big sister and take good care of him - watch over him :) I am sure of it. My big boy has stopped using diapers and is starting school WOW....

Home Sweet Home

We are home safe and sound after a two week vacation in Spain, Dona Pepe (40 min from Alicante). Our vacation was wonderful and we shared it with our great friends Run, Trausti, Tanja Lif and Matthildur. Thanks guys once again for a wonderful time together. The children loved the sun and playing by the pool and we, the parents, loved the beer and the sun :) hehehe Our belly got a little bigger during the vacation, but it looks so much nicer with a tan on ;)

One special thing happened during our vacation in Spain = Johannes Kristbjorn stopped using diapers while we were there, only 19 months old. He is so amazing, our little son. He ripped it off and refused using it. That was the end of it :) We do let him sleep with the diaper over night though. Cheers for him :)

Today we took the kids to daycare and decided to stay home ourselves and take one extra vacation day only for us. Joi won't start school until Thursday, so he has a few more days, but I am going back to work tomorrow. It will be strange going back to work knowing that I am going to quit my job in a few weeks and start a new one. I worry a little about telling everyone there about it and explaining.... But I don't have to make excuses for my decision. I am making a decision for myself and my life.

The plan for today is not to stay in front of the computer so I am blogging off... Will post some more later. Much love to everyone. Chiao, GSJ.
