2 posts in one day?! Cray. Cray.

I have a question for anyone willing to entertain it. What do girls talk about? Like, if I'm trying to branch out & I'm gonna hang with this girl from my work. I don't know muh about her so I imagine most of the conversation will be "getting to know you" type stuff but I haven't made a new friend in awhile & I feel like I'm going on a date! Some may think I'm over analyzing this, but I'd like to have a friend at work that I can hang out with outside of work & all the people i would've hung out wih have been men so far & I'm married so I can't hang out with them a the time. She has a kid too & is really chill so I hope she's as cool as I think! Back to the matter at hand, please help. Any advice is appreciated. I just haven't done this in a long time!!! Thanks! Love, sarah

Happy New Year!

Hey! I'm still alive! I just totally suck at blogging! Updates: Work: still an hourly manager at Coventry Applebee's & loving it. I start back of the house management training next week so I'm pretty excited. I love all the people there more than I ever would've imagined & they are truly like another family to me. Jess sr: got a promotion!!! He's now an assistant general manager at the coliseum store & he is very good at his job! We are super blessed for the opportunity for him to be under his new GM & for his chance to advance:) Jack: is in kindergarden! He loves to read & learn. He also loves video games. He wants to be an artistic scientist who teaches people. He draws everyday & we do lots of experiments. He teaches Jess jr a lot of new things & is still the best big brother! Jack will be 6 in a few weeks! Holy moly! Jess jr: is one yr & 3 mths. He is a bundle of joy! He walks & tries to talk. He's into everything! He loves to dance & eat & play with his brother. Aside from mama, dada, & jack his first word was "buckle". He likes to buckle up in his car seat as we sing the "buckle up" song:) Christmas was good. Kids had "he best christmas ever!" & Jess sr & I got awesome surf & to spend fun time wih our families. I made a lot of the gifts this year. Purses for the nieces, wallets for the nephews, a bank for Drew. I had a lot of fun crafting & will continue to craft as much as I can. I did get a sewing machine for Christmas (thanks mom & dad!) & as soon as I get it out & figure out how to use it I will craft a lot! I am currently working on crocheting a camo (huge) blanket for jack. Hopefully it'll get done this year! New year's resolutions are for chumps but I'm gonna try to eat healthy & exercise. Play with my kids more. Go to sleep earlier so I can enjoy more of my days. I want to quit smoking but that is a process:) We've had a lot of trials in 2012...I have to say 2013 has to be better for lack of room to go worse, but Everytime my friends & family have helped us through. Thanks to all of you that have been there. I appreciate you a. Still working out all the kinks & this year already has some hills for us to climb. Anytime I think or say something negative about my very blessed life jack simply reminds me, "Momma, it doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is family & love." Oh, from the mound of babes. In closing, thanks for reading & also...I am super stoked for this weekend because my bestest friend in the world is coming to visit!!! My cousin kristy & my aunt sue & Colby, kristy's son is coming! One more day of work and then we're chillin' together. YAY! Wishing them safe travels! Stay tuned for more exciting adventures!!! Love, Sarah
