Need Something

Lately I have been going through some changes. Some highs to extreme lows and I might know what it is. I do plan on going to see the doctor and getting checked out not just for the emotional state but for a physical one too. I really don't think my iron levels are correct and if so I need some advice then on sleep because it seems like no matter what I do I am still very tired. Now I know that having a baby is not easy and that sleep is sacrificed but when I get a good amount of sleep I should feel somewhat rejuvenated. I think it will help with my emotional state as well.

Sunday Services

Many things go on in a life. Jeff and I find that most of our catch up time happens at church on Sunday. We also find that if we are serving during the service then we really don’t see and enjoy the service. Last weekend was a great example. Jeff and I usually take the first 10 minutes of service to make sure there are no last minute duties that need to be done or people to be seated. I really needed to talk with my friend Sara about a certain situation and was not able to stay in the service. During that time people who were walking around joined us in our discussion. Now not realizing it but Mike was walking around because he was done preaching and asked the few of us if we go to church. Not thinking I just say yes and left it at that. A little later in the day I was talking with Jeff and we realize that most of the time people see us at church either running around or talking with someone whether it is during the service or after and not actually see us sit in service. At that point Jeff and I decided to attend church either before or after the service we are helping at. We feel that people need to know that we listen and participate with the service and not just show up to help. This will mean Breann will stay in the nursery longer but I am sure she doesn’t mind since they have more toys then she knows what to do with.

My Rights!!!

So I am a little mad at the moment. Yesterday I came into work and notice a hand written letter to me from the supervisors. It proceeds to say that my hours are going to be cut do to another worker coming back from medical leave. First I was mad because they tell me in a letter and it wasn't even typed, it was hand written at the bottom of the schedule log. Secondly I have been a full-time employee for over two years and to only cut my hours no one else, that is not right. Now I left a letter with our HR lady and she did leave a message (I was sleeping when she called) apologizing for the rudeness of the staff. She said she would work with me in making sure that I have shifts to work. I just feel so blind sided with this and Jeff has been looking into employee rights. We are keeping all our documents that I have received and hopefully everything will work out in the end. Any advice would be good right about now, so please let me know if I should do anything different or make sure I am covering all my bases.

Bad Kitchen

Sunday was not Jeff's and mine day. I was late getting off work and when I called Jeff to tell him that I would pick him up and change at church, he said he just woke up. This is at 9am, we have to be at church at 9:30am. Anyways Breann was sick and kept Jeff up all night, so one of us would have to stay home with Breann and the other one would go to church. I told Jeff to stay home and I would find someone else to help with ushering at church. I finally get to church at a little after 9:30am (not bad for driving 70 on the freeway from Yorba Linda to Long Beach) and set everything up which Deb Moulton did a huge part in helping me. Was able to find one of our other volunteers who had off this month to help us during service and touch base with my sister for a little bit. Then I received a phone call from Jeff, he said that the day just got worse. The dog vomited a couple of times and that our dish washer broke and water was leaking everywhere. Now I have had dishwashers break on me before so I wasn't to worried until we later realized it leaked through the floor boards of our kitchen and into our garage. (we live above our garage). Now our kitchen is blocked off and there are huge heat fans that are made to dry out the water before it does anymore damage. So we don't have a kitchen for 3 days and I have to say . . .I miss my kitchen. Breann is feeling much better now and is almost ready to roll over (just to give you some good news).

Teeth, Drool and Crys

Now Breann isn't feeling to well and we do think it is because she is teething. Yet at the same time she sounds congested so I get to calm her down (or at least try)when she crys tonight. She is only sleeping for a half hour to 40 minutes at a time at the moment so I do know that this is going to be a long night ahead of me. The good thing is that I don't have to work until Wednesday night and that gives Jeff a chance to rest tonight since he was up with her all last night. So lets recap Breann is congested, tired and teething and Jeff gets to finally sleep. Now I know a whole new meaning to the phrase the mother's job is never done. Oh and Breann is 4 months tomorrow, Happy 4 month Birthday Bree.

Bazen Reunion

I have to say I never realize how long it has been since I have seen some one until I go to a family reunion. I don't realize that it has been almost two years since I have seen my cousins and that is because the last time I saw them was at my wedding. And for those of you that know when the Bazen's come out to play it is crazy fun. We all had a great time even in the heat and i have to say that my cousin Tim is looking good. Jake and Jenna we so need to hang out more, and Jake your friends are awesome. To the rest of the family same time next year sounds good. Or for the girls Christmas is around the corner we can make the ginger bread houses again. I love you all.

Back to Work

So this past week I went back to work at Yorba Regional. The first night back there was major construction going on because the earthquake knocked down some of the ceiling panels in the lobby. Which gave us the major discovery that there never was any insulation put in the lobby. This made us realize why the lobby was so HOT in the summer and so COLD in the winter. Anyways . . . I am glad to be going back to work especially at night because I know my daughter is sleeping and I am not missing out on anything. I do have with drawls sometimes, mostly when I know I only have an hour left before I have to go into work. That is when I want to hold her the most and pray for time to stop. We have been pretty busy at work and that is a good thing for me because then I don't have down time to really think about her and realize she is not with me. The funny thing is when people start coming in for the morning shift I get excited because I will soon be off and get to go home to her smiles.
