I confess that I made a baby step back into volunteering last night and I feel great about it. I volunteered for 2 straight years with AmeriCorps and then volunteered for a first aid team with an old company for another 3 years on an "as needed" basis. I stopped volunteering all together when I needed to work 2 jobs to stay afloat. Now that I'm down to 1, I found myself missing something in my life and am making it a point to volunteer at least 1 time a month.
I also confess to trying to make it a habit now so that when DH and I have a family, our kiddos will have that be a regular occurrence in their lives without it feeling like a big deal.

MY BLOG!
I confess I've done nothing today but talk to my boss/coworkers. A little bit of it was work related, but mostly we just gossiped and socialized.
I confess that I have no interest in maintaining a relationship with my SIL. She has pushed my buttons for 7 years and is now criticizing how I am raising my child. Everyone has opinions but I demand respect for the choices I have made and continue to make. I don't always agree with how she has raised her children, but I realize they are not mine, she is not abusing them, and she has every right to do whatever she pleases with them.

I confess that I'm so exhausted I could've come home from work hours ago and fallen asleep. I couldn't, however, b/c I'm babysitting my oldest nephew overnight tonight. My sister is going to a party and I'm kinda frustrated; this is the 2nd time in 2 weeks I've taken him overnight so she could go out. I love my little booger, but having to watch every single thing he does all the time, and listen to the constant question asking, getting bored w/ something every 2 mins gets tiring.
I guess I'm most frustrated b/c my sister makes it a priority to spend time w/ her friends but her 3 kids seem to be an inconvenience to her lately.
I confess that I am really nervous for my H. He's interviewed for a job with my company, and I know how bad he wants it.He HATES his job, but he never complains about it, but I know he does. He's applied for sooo many positions, and I know the economy is awful, but I just really want this to happen for him. I also confess that I keep watching the status, and if he is removed from the candidate pool, I don't think I'd have the heart to tell him.
Lastly... I have bought 3 bags of Cadbury mini eggs in the past week!
