Well, I am sitting here at work very sad--my dear friend and boss Julie had a massive heart attack and passed away last night around 11:30pm. As some of you know she just buried her husband on the 5th of January. She was struggling with his death and she seemed to be more and more depressed as the days went by. I know she got all of her personal stuff in order . I just went and witnessed her will last Tuesday. I am still in shock and wish it was not real. I got home from the hospital at 2am. The guys at Haven House are not sure that it is real and are very sad that Ms. Julie is not coming back. The funeral will be on Friday and the visitation on Thursday. We will take the guys to the funeral home for the visitation. I just felt I needed to write this down--I am sorry to share this with everyone but this is good or me. She always called herself Robert's 2nd wife. We would joke around all the time about that. She went to Mardi Gras with us this year and we had a great time. She will truly be missed.

NEED TO POST!
I am needing to post pictures and let yall know what has been going on in our lives. We have been busy as usual-it seems like the week that Robert is home from work we are super busy. I am just as busy when he is gone. I always find time to post when I am at work-but do not have a scanner or camera card with me--so needless to say I will have to make another post at home. We are throwing around the idea of Alaska in August-I will let all know how those plans are coming. We loved going there last year and would love to go back--just need to see how everything plays out.
As for the adoption--it is a no go. We are okay with it and know that whatever is suppose to happen--WILL!! We have 20 nieces and nephews to keep us quite busy and use our money as well:) We are ready for it to be spring so we can get outside and enjoy our place. I will post pictures later--

So much for blogging more!
I know, I know I said that I would do better at blogging--but what can I say. SORRY!
My life has not slowed down any at all--we had Mardi Gras-which is a whole other blog topic for sure--with pictures. My boss came back to work and trying to get all of the end of the year thigns done plus.....
They are remodeling my workplace and it is a mess--so I have been helping to get it all back in order.
As far as the adoption--well here it goes--The dad has rights in the state of Arkansas so even though he has no involment in the childs life-he still will have to sign his rights away. The problem with that is he is in jail for who knows how long. The other BIG hold up is that I can not get in contact with the mother at the moment. I do know that the baby is a girl and due the end of March---there is not a lot I can do legally until the baby is 3 days old---SOOOO--we are in a waiting period. I will update on this situation as news comes in......
Robert is working 7 days on and 7 days off and we seem to like that for now. I am very busy with Bella these days. She had been with us every weekend for the last month. We enjoy seeing her and she tells me that when summer gets here I am taking her to Oklahoma to ride PawPaw's horse--so I guess we will be making a trip to Mom and Dad's. I will write more later---
