Thursday Randoms...little long
Hey hey hey,
I haven't posted much but I've been reading and keeping up with you guys. It's been a tough week and a half. I am just about completely physically healed. Everything else is gonna take time. I have good days where I'm my usual self and bad days where every little thing bothers me. Going back to work was great actually. I'm really glad to be back, even though it takes some adjusting. I'm getting to the midterm part of my semester already. I can't believe it. I figured out I have THREE more semesters and I will graduate with my bachelors.
Other than that, not a ton going on in Amber land. We are kicking it into high gear this weekend and packing at least half of our things. We move out the 7th! AUGH! Also, sorta sad that we may have to cancel our trip to Disney. Medical bills are coming in plus trying to buy a house....augh. But, I desperately need this vacation. T and I have to talk about it.
Thank you guys again for everything. You all are so nice and I appreciate it.

We are just trying to prioritize what we need/want to do first. We got our tax return and there are little things like a twin bed for Lily and larger things like a new windshield for P that are must do items. We need new windows and want an A/C unit. We need to get quotes on the windows but it's so snowy, that will probably wait another month or two.
P still wants to look for a new job when his contract period is over in April. Today he asked me if moving was out of the question when he looks for a job. It gave me a pause. I said it's not, but the job would have to be pretty perfect. The thought of moving again does not bring me joyful feelings. I dislike packing. But if the job was perfect, I would do it. I figure now is a better time to be moving before Lily is in school. Also now (as in this year) would still work as the housing market in Denver is still a sellers market. We probably wouldn't make any or much money since we just bought, but we wouldn't lose any. I love Colorado though and really don't want to move.
Luckily, we got it all figured out where we can take our trip and pay the medical bills. House hunting will just be a slow process until we can save up enough money. We decided that the trip was a priority to us right now.

She was doing great when we first got her toddler bed. But then she started getting her molars and it's been horrible. Once I get her to sleep, I lay her in her bed. On bad nights she's awake every few hours and usually ends up with us in our bed. On good nights (like last night) she was in her bed until 4:00 am. She spent the last few hours in our bed. If she had a twin I would have just gone and laid with her. I've tried to go in and rock her when she wakes up in the wee hours of the morning, but either she doesn't go back down for hours or I end up asleep in the chair and it's not comfy for sleeping.
