My Happy List

Photobucket


Before I start with my list of HAPPY...I am pleased to announce with winner of the $25 Target card...congrats to Crazymama!

And the monthly My Happy List winner is DysFUNctional Mom...congrats!!

Send me your addresses ladies and I will get your prizes in the mail! HAPPY!!

Topping my HAPPY list is BIG fabulous news...Big Daddy got the transfer we have been praying for. He started today! This means a move to Hollister, possibly sooner than we had planned. He will be staying with my folk's on his work days and come home on his days off. It will be rough for a little while as we try to find the right house and get moved and being apart is a super huge bummer...but it all will have a very HAPPY ending. We will be close to family and that makes us all supah HAPPY!

J is doing well living with her mom and we are confident she will continue to foster that relationship and be fine...she always has the choice to come with us and we are only an hour and a half away, so getting together is not an issue. HAPPY!!

I am at my mom's, laying on her sofa and feeling sorry for myself...not really. I have a mild case of the shingles. It's not cute, but it could be WAY worse so I am pretty HAPPY to be as well as I am.

I have lots to be HAPPY about, Halloween was lots of fun. Being here in Hollister I got to be with some of my nephews and my niece for Halloween parades and Trunk or Treat.

I don't have ANY pictures of the kids...how did that happen? Oh yeah, I was too busy sitting by my car passing out candy with my fellow witches, my mom and sister Amy.

I know you are probably wondering why I was not wearing the PINK witches hat. Well I was going to, and my Aunt Debi was going to wear red, but I wanted to match my little firefighter..HAPPY!!

Excuse Coco's eyes...I tried to use the red eye remover but it made her eyes looks all kinds of wonky...trust me she looked adorable and loved all of the attention from the Trunk or Treating kiddos!

AND Debi and my dad went to Nevada to get the rest of her stuff and spend a couple days going to her Dr. appointments...so I wore the red hat in her honor (holla Debi).

Coco does look cute! Even if her eyes are a little weird in the picture!

Happy Tuesday!

Sounds like you have lots of good news! A new job for Big Daddy, a move away from the disliked town, only a mild case of the dreaded shingles--all reasons to do the happy Snoopy dance.
Here's hoping for a speedy recovery.

You're going to be so happy when you move!!!! It may be a little rough while getting things worked out at first, but that is awesome news! Hope your shingles aren't too bad and that you feel better soon.

Congratulations on the job transfer. That is great news!

Meg said...

first of all, GO DEBI! It takes a lot of courage to walk away from an abusive relationship. I'm so proud of her. Thanks for giving her the support she needs to get out of there and move on to a better place!

Congrats to fonzo!!! SOOOOOO HAPPY for you guys! Can't wait to hear about your new place...maybe I will come visit when you get one and help get you settled in? I love to unpack :)

I love you! I am jealous of the pic of you, amy and mom. I would be the orange witch, of course.

Meg said...

PS---I'm soooo sorry about the shingles. Awful. It is really sad that this terrible disease exists in the first place. I just posted about it. Get your varicella vaccine, everyone! Get ALL of your vaccines and help stamp out communicable diseases. No one should have to suffer from this. I love you. besos.
