A Little Catch Up and a Wake up Call

It's crazy how working full time plus makes it hard to find time to blog. I've been a general manager for almost a year now and it is a ton of work. I enjoy my job but some days I long for the days when Enoch was the money and I was just mommy. So a quick catch up, the boys are getting bigger everyday.

We got a dog her name is Pepper

Other than that life has just been rolling by. Sometimes it seems like it is going a million miles an hour and other times it crawls by slowly. 

So now for the wake up call I just came off of missing almost a full week of work because I have been very ill. I spent two separate days in the hospital. I'd been having serious tummy pain and a lot of vomiting. You know all around good times. So we went to the E.R. good news is that my gall bladder and appendix are fine. There's nothing life threatening going on. The bad news is that they are pretty sure I have a peptic ulcer. So what does this mean for me? It means I have to give up a few of my bad habits. Those of you that know me well know I drink way to much coke. Coke is out all together, no carbonation, limited caffeine. Also I take a lot of Advil that's out now too. Who would of thought that not eating all day, drinking crazy amounts of coke and eating Advil like candy would terrorize your digestive system. Also no booze, limit citric acid and avoid stress. So the couple things I'm still aloud to do that I enjoy swear like a sailor and have sex. :) 

On a serious note this is the most pain I have been in, including giving birth. So I'm going to do the best to beat my vices, I know that those habits are bad for me, but so much fun. 

Hopefully I have time to update this again soon. 

A Year in Utah, Two Years out of Missoula

Two years since I have lived in the haven of Missoula.Utah is nice and the last year has been a whirl wind but I wonder how long it will be until the pain of living somewhere else will dull. I am so glad we aren't in Eastern Washington anymore. It's hard to believe we have been in Utah a year. When we moved here without jobs almost on a whim who would have thought it would have turned out so well.
So quick year catch up Enoch is running the busiest Papa John's in Utah which is awesome, and I was recently promoted to a store manager also for Papa John's. This means for once we both have a bonus program and 401k's.  The kids are flourishing. Bo is loving junior high and has friends. Rory, Thor and Mag enjoy all the fun things to do here.  We have been able to enjoy lot's of big city activities like the zoo and aquarium.
The biggest change has been in Enoch. He is happier than he has been in years. He's still working hard and is truly appreciated. He has time for hobbies now and he sees the kids way more than he used too.
I miss Missoula still. Like crazy. But I have come to terms with not living there, at least for now..
