molars are a pain in EVERYONE's patootie

oh my sweet nuggie... we think she's getting a new molar. this child takes WEEKS to get teeth. seriously. i feel so bad for her. none of us are sleeping. we're all exhausted. every nerve is frazzled in our house right now. the last two nights i've felt like i'm with a newborn all over again. she scream and cries and throws fits and nothing makes her happy. i hope this one pokes its pearly white little head through soon and she gets some relief. it's only molar 3 of 4 :-(

so so so. i'm kinda ready to go back to school. i've barely been out three weeks. i miss the grown up conversation and i miss classes. i miss lecture. what the heck? i'm a nerd. it's official. my summer class starts may 30 - that'll be a nice little change :-)

i got a second interview (same position)... it's next thur. i HOPE it works out. it's a PRN extern position, so it would be perfection, especially when school starts back up. and it's at the hospital i hope to work at after graduation... fingers crossed and a prayer said!

we've been doing lots of home improvements lately. and by "we" i mean my super, awesome hubby or the guys we've paid to do something. i monitor the situation. and smile when it's done. over the last few months we've had the giant tree removed from our yard, the fence bub built and our roof was replaced on monday. we had some awful hail damage... all these projects make me think about selling the place. our house is cozy and wonderful, but it's tiny and we'd love to have something bigger and in a nicer neighborhood. but our problem is we don't know where to go. we've talked about moving out to portland to be closer to my mom and sister. portland has such a great vibe, but it's also SO far away. we've talked about moving back up indiana. but that's mostly me wanting to raise nuggie in a small town and be closer to my extended family and old friends. bub's not too keen on the idea of 10 months of winter ;-) and of course we've talked about staying here. but the "nice" areas are SO pricey or a very far commute for bub to make it in to work. how do you know what's right? how do you know what to do. life is more complicated now. it's not like when we were first married and had crappy jobs and just rented. we could move any time and any where (which we never took advantage of). now there are good jobs and school to consider, a house to sell or rent out, a baby girl to keep comfy and happy. i know it'll all work out, but i'm such a planner. i'd love to know right now what the future holds so i can look ahead and get ready.

sweet change of subject... my little nuggie is laying down in her crib with her teddy bear. she's all snuggled up with it and keeps patting its back like we do to her when she is upset or doesn't feel well. my little angel-bug, even when she doesn't feel her best she's still so sweet and loving. i think my heart just melted into a puddle.

happy thursday friends.
