Introduction

Hello, My name is Heather. I am a Gemini and for the most part fit the sign.  I am married to a wonderful man, Mike. In July we will have been married for 7 very long but short years.  We have 2 beautiful babies together, Noah, he is 4yrs old and Kyli, she just turned 18 months old on my birthday.  Our life is kind of crazy right now.  Mike got out of the Navy about a year ago and has been using the GI Bill to go to school since August.  While it will definitely benefit us later, it feels more difficult to have him in school then to have him deployed.  My reasoning:  When Mike was deployed we (the kids and I) knew that we could not see him.  Since he has been in school, he is present in our household but often times is unable to take action within the family because he has to get a TON of homework done.  This has been very difficult and often times the babies do not understand why they can see and touch Daddy but why he can't play with them.  

Moving on, I just started a new job this week.It is a dream job for me currently, 32hrs, benefits and more money than my prior job where I was working 40 hrs a week. It is in my field, Criminal Justice, which is the first time I have been in my field since I graduated in 2004.  With Mike in the Navy, it was hard to find a job where they wanted me and I never wanted to commit to a career job when I could not stay.  This is the first of many steps to getting us more stable then we have been for awhile.  I am SO excited. The girls I am working with all seem awesome and helpful. They are all friends and there doesn't seem to be any hostility.  This makes me so happy since anytime you put a number of women together in a work place, there is always a large chance that there is a drama mama or hostile female.  They are all quirky and funny.  They believe in hard work, but enjoy a good laugh. This is the beginning to something very wonderful.


Well, that seems like something nice but short to start with.  I look forward to meeting new people on here and keeping in touch with others already on here.  Blog again soon
