Just Getting Started

So as most of my friends have one of these, I decided to take the plunge and go ahead and sign up. Not quite sure how this will all turn out, but what the hell. I really have nothing to lose by going for this.

So update real quickly for those who do not know what is going on. I left my husband back in April of 2009 due to him doing something illegal that ruined our family. I have never once gone back and will never go back. The children and I moved back to Texas in June, the day after school got out. We started over from scratch. By scratch I mean that we had nothing~no job, no money, no home, no furniture, nothing. By the grace of god and some very good friends and family members pitching in, I secured an apartment, a job, and furnishings for our new home and life. I am in the process of transferring my PA state LPN nursing license to Texas, and to do that I have to take a refresher course. I begin that on Jan 19th, and I'll be doing 150 credit hours of course work in 11wks. Then I begin my clinicals, which are 80hrs (excluding lunches and meetings) so I'll be doing that in April for three weeks. Basically in April, I'll be working from 3-11pm Mon-Fri at a hospital, while also pulling in almost 40hrs a week at my current job. Translation~I won't see my kids for three weeks and am going to be relying on friends to help me out watching them.

Its been rough for us, but things are starting to look up. I'll be filing for divorce in less than a month (think tax return) and just started dating a wonderful guy about three weeks ago. I have no clue where our relationship is heading, as I do have four children and taking on four kids is a lot to ask of anyone. I'm just letting things fall where they may, and trying not to sweat the small stuff right now because in all honesty, my patience has been pushed to the max!
