Somebody asked me once what my dream job would be. After much thought and contemplation of about 30 seconds I gave this answer:
To run a nursery (for plants not kids)
I was surprised too. But this is coming from the kid who's best friend in elementary school was a tree.
Yes I know, this is a seriously embarrassing thing to divulge via the internets but don't worry I'm pretty open about that part of my life. I was in elementary school after all. I was a strange kid but I was the odd ball that teachers didn't have to worry about, not the kid that beat people including the teachers who grew up to be an arsonist. So really I have nothing to hide. :)
But back to the nursery. I actually have no background in gardening or horticulture (the only reason why I know the word horticulture is because of Penelope) but I always liked nature and I have a dream to grow a beautiful garden at my home and frankly to work with plants all day would be pretty awesome.
I'd also like to be an book editor or reviewer which for those who know me makes more sense.

Yes son, China is very smart...
Mini Flash has learned to read. He reads just about anything with words on it, including his toys. He has several Stars Wars toys including a very nice spaceship that turns into two toys (a two for one toy, you bet we'll buy it). Today he made this comment about his spaceship:
MF: Hey my spaceship was made in China.
Me: Oh really? (remembering back when I used to read the label off my toys too)
MF: I can't believe China knows so much about Star Wars.
Of course I'm thinking, Can I trade mark "Made in China"?

A Tomato a Day Keeps the Doctor Away
Anyone who really really knows me, understands I've hated the taste of raw tomatoes for pretty much my whole life. At restaurants for whatever I order I always ask for no tomatoes. I always ask, "Does it come with tomatoes?" They are never on my sandwiches or hamburgers. I've never been shy about putting the tomatoes to the side when I have salads.
I've been asked, "Didn't you ever have home grown tomatoes in your garden growing up?" I know we had a garden when I was growing up but since I was never interested in tomatoes I don't know if we grew them or not. People would look at me like I'm crazy when I say, "No I did not eat garden tomatoes growing up but I have had garden tomatoes and I don't like them any more then the store bought ones."
People don't understand that I've eaten several tomatoes over the years just to see if my taste buds have changed because I understand that I may actually change my attitude towards them. Over the years I've learned to like certain things with tomatoes in them like salsa and soups.
A few months back that attitude change started to happen. You see I get strep throat very easily and in the first four months this year alone I've had it twice. The second time I thought I was going to die. I was in more pain then I had been in since Ruby was born. The misery was overwhelming.
As I visited the quick care doctor she pointed something out to me that no other doctor had bothered to mention in the 20+ years I've been chronically diagnosed with strep throat, "Gargle lemon juice or vinegar to help with the ph levels." It was like a light went off in my head. What do lemons and vinegar have in come? Acid. Now who wants to drink straight lemons or vinegar...not me. Orange juice is out because of the sugar levels and my pre-diabetic issues. So that left me with one other option.
Tomato juice.
So for the last two months I've been drinking one small can of tomato juice a day to prevent strep from returning. Will it work? I have no idea and frankly it could all be in my head but if I can make it the rest of the year without getting strep again I'll owe it all to that quick care doctor and tomato juice.

Survived Part III
Just so you know I started this post yesterday. But once again I exceed my own expectations by coming back three times in one week. Has a new patterns started? Probably not but it's nice to dream. :)
The last few months was a big strain on Flash and I. We hardly ever saw each other between both work and school. A friend of mine, Waffle (so called because she waffles back and forth between decisions), moved in with us back in March. Waffle and I have been super close friends for about five years and I've always believed a true test of friendship is sharing living quarters. So far things have been great. Waffle is going to school to become a chef and we often come home to wonderful meals we normally would pay $20 a plate for at a restaurant. She also helps with the kids, baby-sitting when we both have classes or I have a class and Flash is late at work.
The interesting part is all three of us are going to college. If you were to come and visit some nights you would see all three of us doing homework in the living room while the kids are in bed. Being married and going to college feels a lot like...well when I was single and in college. It's kind of surreal. Like we're just a bunch of roommates trying to struggle though midterms, reading assignments, and finals. At night any way. During the day it's more complicated with kids, work, and house management.
Flash is currently working for a satellite installation company to help pay for the bills. It's not his dream job, we never know when he's going to be home, and weekends are no fun anymore because he works. One of the first things his boss said to him when he started working there was, "We have a high divorce rate in this job because the hours are hard on a marriage."
Nice.
Never fear, our marriage is far from that point and frankly we have a plan. This job was always meant to be temporary until something better came along. Flash is going back to school to learn accounting. That's right he's joining the family business. That's our plan. So...he's quitting his job...today actually. Giving two weeks notice and then it's full time school to learn. We'll be living on student loans and basically struggling for the next ten years to build our client base. In the long run it'll be worth the struggle. We both have other education and careers to fall back on and supplement whatever we don't make during tax season. But for the most part...I believe we're going to be just fine.
There's a lot more going on but I'll save it for other posts and other days.

Survived Part II
Well would you look at that...I'm back. The very next day as I said I would. Trust me no one is as shocked as I am.
So I promised this would be a post about Mini Flash and his doings. Since we only get to see him on the weekends it's hard to come up with anything earth shattering to talk about. He's nearing the end of first grade and come to think of that is pretty earth shattering. I mean, seriously the kid is growing up so fast I'm not sure how I can keep up. I'm feeling the needs to start buying clothes on sale for the following season and start reading books about knowing how to talk to your six year old cause I'm struggling. Where do you draw the line between letting your kid joke with you and talking back to you? How do you keep them from crying every time you tell them they have to do something new?
His reading level has been improving considerably. In primary he's the only one we don't have to help find scriptures in class. We may not read scriptures every night but having him find scriptures has turned into a game so at least he knows how to navigate through the Book of Mormon. I have eight six year olds in my class and I can honestly say not many six year old kids can do that.
MF is becoming more and more like his father. I'm sure his mother is in there somewhere but since I don't know her very well I can't give anything specific. He likes to kid and joke and play just like his dad. He's a wonderful older brother playing with his 16 month old sister like they are best friends. Nearly every morning I find the two of them in her crib either reading a book or just goofing off with each other.
This summer is bringing new experiences. We are planning switching off every two weeks instead of every other week for the summer vacation. I also plan on giving him a summer job by having him learn how to type. I also have a feeling he'll be learning how to ride a two wheeler. This should be interesting.
Shall I dare to update again tomorrow? I think I will dare. For tomorrow it'll be about Flash and me. Stay tuned.

I bought a t-shirt saying "I survived tax season at Merrick and Rowley"
So my family and I survived the remainder of tax season, winter, and the spring semester.
Barely.
It's amazing what kind of burn out one feels when they take on too many activities. It took me nearly a week of recovery after school for me to even think about blogging. So what's the latest and greatest happenings for the family?
Let's start with Ruby. She is full on walking every where now and it's so much fun for mommy. Really! I'm not being sarcastic or anything. You see every bit of freedom she acquires means a little bit more freedom for mommy. Sure I have to watch every move she makes and keep her out of things, but really I was doing that already so nothings changed the status qua. Her walking means less carrying leading to hands free for other things mommy needs to carry.
She now has hi, bye, and no in her vocabulary. Some doctor mentioned that was pretty advanced for 16.5 months (yes that's right 1.5 months before nursery time!). She also says please, thank you, and more in sign language and occasionally uses it without our promptings. Now I'm trying to teach her milk, water, juice, and food so I know what she wants when she asks for more please.
The kid also loves books! What book worm mommy wouldn't love that? It's so exciting for me to watch her follow me around the house with a book only to sit down close by while I work on the computer or fold laundry or clean the kitchen and read her little board books. I'm not kidding guys, in her little baby language she turns the pages and starts talking like she's reading something. The books are never upside down either. She also thinks whatever she's ready is hilarious because she'll say something, look at me, and then laugh like it's the funniest thing she ever read.
So that's Ruby. I'm going to attempt to blog about Mini Flash tomorrow. If not tomorrow, just know the next installment will be about Mini Flash and what's going on with him.

Breather
I'm taking a moment from life right now...it's been very busy since the school semester and tax season started. I work just about every night and when I'm not working I'm trying to clean my house, get homework done, cook, clean the house, move a friend into my house, do homework, play with the kids, balance financial statements, do Flash's homework, and if you can believe it clean the house some more.
Oh, I've also decided to participate in a Half Marathon and I'm three weeks behind the suggested training schedule. Not sure if I'll survive but it's worth a shot right? I've started kickboxing workouts (not real kickboxing but at least it's cooler then aerobics) at my school gym which I find I really enjoy. I also want to find time for rock climbing...why? Not sure but I'm hoping it'll turn into a nice activity Flash and I can share.
Spring is coming and I'll admit I'm pretty excited. Flash wants to build a white picket fence for our front yard, and I have dreams of benches. Wooden benches circling our trees where adults can sit and chat while the kids play in a white picket fenced yard.

She walks
Ruby walked on Sunday! By herself! Several times!
I've known for a few months that Ruby could walk but I never could get her to the point of doing it by herself. Walking just wasn't interesting to her. She can walk on her knees and crawl rather well and she likes to hold onto the fabric of my pants as we walk around the house together. As the boys take a hand each the three of them bramble around the house together. But we couldn't get her to stand on her own much less walk.
On Sunday I was cleaning up after dying my sister's hair two lovely colors of black and red when I heard a yell from my one of my good friends, Waffle, behind me. "Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh she's walking!"
I whipped around and saw with great shock my little girl walking by herself not just one or two steps but several as if she's been doing it for a while. We got a few more walking moments and a video (which I'm still trying to figure out how to upload from my phone) when she made it clear she was not interested in walking any more.
Since then I've tried to stealthy remove my fingers from her little iron fists but she gets very angry with me when I do. Right now I'm content in knowing she can walk and not concerned that she doesn't but look forward to the day when my arms will get a break before the next child comes along.

School in for the Winter!
I'm back! That's right school has officially started for me once again! And not just for me but for my DH as well. Yep...I finally talked Flash into going back to school. We decided it's a good idea to be proficient in more than one profession. Which is why he's going for an AS rather then a BS. It's a smart move especially in this economy.
Ever get tired of hearing that phrase, "...especially in this economy..." but those four little words seem to give meaning to the downtodden life in which we find ourselves. <----dramatic much?
Of course neither of us are attending classes full time. When bills need to be paid education needs to wait. At least until the summer when we both will be getting into it full swing. For the last two weeks we've had to juggle our jobs and finding sitters for Ruby. My parents are amazing by taking Ruby to work while I ride public transportation all over the valley. I drop her off with my folks and ride a bus back to campus where I'll wait a couple hours for class to start. Then I rush back to the bus stop and have an hour ride back to work. Funny thing, I actually enjoy riding public transporation systems. It's relaxing and gives me a chance to study. It is a headache to schedule my day around what time the bus comes but in the long run it's been worth the trouble.
Eventually I'm going to introduce our valley bus system with my kids and I think it'll be fun. A new advanture!

The Big 1st of 2009!
Ruby turned 1 on December 31st! Yes I know, I'm late with the post but if it helps this one comes with pictures!
Ruby has been a joy in our lives. This kid smiles all the time and is starting to give hugs! Oh my gosh the first time she did that I melted. What is it about your kids and the wonderful surprises they give you? Her birthday was small with some family and close friends. I believe my daughter is going to be a drummer when she gets older and so we bought her a little drum set that has other noise makers stored inside. She loves to bang on the drum...which is better than banging on my keyboard. She got some new clothes and learning toys but the best part of course was the cake!

She dug into that thing like a pro and we enjoyed helping her eat all the frosted parts. We tried to get Mini Flash to dig in but he's not big on getting his hands dirty.
While we dug into Ruby's first cake we enjoyed sharing stories of Mini Flash's first birthday and how he would not dig into his first cake. With our encouragement, Ruby's example, and promises that the frosting will wash off he got into it though and started to really enjoy distroying the cake.

2009 Year End
The year 2009 was a great and frustrating year all at once. The happy and joyful moments make me sorry to see the year go but I'm excited for the coming year and the possibilities coming our way.
2009's Not so Great Moments:
I'll start with the bad parts of 2009 first so I can end on a good note:
Education - I took a year off school in hope to further my education at work. Though I've learned many things I'm not where I had planned. I did this in an attempt to help my family financially but I'm no further ahead then I was last year. I'm not sure I would have done anything different but if I could go back I might have thought more seriously about going back to school in the fall. Family Issues - I was going to begin this section with Family Death but for some reason that just seems too upsetting. Nonetheless, my Grandmother died a few days before Thanksgiving and we are still trying to pick up the pieces of her passing. My Grandpa is having to struggle though the holidays without her and just so you know the holidays last until the Super Bowl around here.
Financial Struggles - with Flash being out of work for most of the year our savings dwindled to nothing. The construction business has suffered greatly in the valley and we had to live off the charity of our church and the government for a couple months. Though it was upsetting I was very grateful we live in a time and place where we can receive help with essentials like food and housing. I myself feel like our bills are consuming my soul. I say this mostly in jest but only mostly. ;)
2009 Awesome Moments:
And now for the moments that jazzed my year.
Firsts - January 2 of 2009 I brought my baby girl home from the hospital. What a way to start out the new year! 2009 gave me a year of firsts: First baby, first sleepless nights, first holidays, first laugh, first tooth, first vacation, first sippy cup, first dance, first smile, first crawl, first stand, first...well you get the idea. She is the reason why I don't mind not going to school in the fall because no monatary or educational value could replace all or even one of my firsts.San Diego/Sea World - My little family spent two weeks in San Diego where we rocked with Shamu, laughed with Clyde and Symore, swam with Baluga whales, played on a HUGE jungle gym with the kids, splashed ourselves on Ship Wrech Rapids, visted with friends, and even a few temples along the way. Mini Flash conqured swimming under water (with goggles) and we even got him in the deep end a few times (that's a big deal when you're six). Our San Diego trip was an adventure and deserves a blog post unto itself and it may possibly get one in the near future.
NSA - While in San Diego I joined the National Society of Accountants, a group dedicated to helping tax and accounting practicioners do thier job. My mom has been a member for years and I have been a student member off and on but decided I would finally take the leap and become a full member. Despite my disappointment at furthuring my career this past year joining the NSA was the breakthrough I think I needed in taking the first step to a better career. I'm still going to school to be a technical communicator but that will be something I can do on the side because in the next 10 years things are going to be different.
Planning - So Flash quit his job last year. Yes...I know in this economy and I let him do it but it was a good move for our family in many ways. One being we realized just how awesome it is to spend time together. We can't do that when he has to work for someone else. My husband loves being an electrician but right now our lovely state has suffered greatly in the construction department. I knew years ago this was coming so it's no great surprise but for my DH it was a disappointment. So I have convinced him to make some changes. Quitting his job opened his eyes to a world where he can take his son to swimming lessons during the day, he can drive to work with his wife and spend all day together, he can spend time with his infant daughter, and go on vacation for two weeks without fearing he'll lose his job. Therefore; we are making plans for 2010 in hopes for a better future for ourselves and our children.
I'm glad 2009 is over though I enjoyed many moments I'm looking forward to 2010 and what it will bring to our little family. So good by 2009 and heres to the new year with all the frustrations and joys it can bring!
