A month later

So, I haven't done the greatest job in the world of staying on top of this but a month later is not the worst I can do. Things haven't changed too much in the last month. Work has been pretty much the same, just keep truckin away as they say. Things with my moms situation have not improved and I am not sure what is going to happen, I stay in touch and try to be supportive, but mostly I stay out of things and I am just waiting to see how the cookie crumbles. Apparently today I am into cheesy sayings.
Chase and I have not made any headway in the moving situation but it does seem that Chad is going to stay at home with Dad so that takes some of the pressure off me and gives me some comfort that Dad can make it once I'm gone. He still has no luck with jobs but he doesn't exactly go about it the most efficient way. I am done trying to do it for him and he's just going to have to figure something out. The only thing I am really worried about in those regards is Libby. I'm sure dad will miss her and she him. I was thinking of some days dropping her at dads on the way to work. I think they would both like that. Back to Chase and I, we are still waiting to hear from Orbin about what he is going to do with this house. I told Chase something needs to happen soon because I want to be in a new place before the first of the year and December is the worst time to move esp all those expenses with moving as well as Christmas.
Christmas is another monster I currently choose to not think about. It has nothing to do with money and everything to do with complications. I am hoping that my mother will come around and mend things with JoJo so we can have a normal Christmas, also if she doesn't boot Ray I don't know what we will do Christmas morning bc Ray and Zach and I no longer get along and Pa and Cheri and Dave certainly wont want to be around him either so who knows what will happen Christmas morning. Then Chase's family is going to Hull for like a week, and they are pressuring him to be able to get off from work and go. One he may not have the option to just get off days around Christmas like he's freaking special when he is the newest employee. And two I cannot and will not go out of state and away from all my family for Christmas, I'm sorry but I do not understand this whole lets take the entire family from KY to IL for Christmas. Seriously its like a minimum of 17 people. Yes, its where Grandma Gray lives but she comes to Louisville for every Christmas and holiday anyhow. Chase doesn't comment on the situation terribly often. He says he wants us to be together and happy and doesn't care where we are but I know deep down he will be upset to miss the entire week with everyone. But honestly its not reasonable to expect people can just take off a week around Christmas in this day and age.
Also, I am now obsessed with pinterest. Tons of recipes, fun things to do, and great ideas to make life easier and more fun. If you are not familiar with it you need to get on that.

Its been a long time.....

So, I fell off the blogging train, but I'm going to jump back on and try to stick with it. Since I last blogged a million things have happened so here's the short of it....
I graduated!
Passed my boards!
Got a real job at a chiropractor's office in Crestwood, I really like it and its going great. I do her x-rays and I am her chiropractic assistant, therefore I set everyone up on therapies and help keep the flow of the office running smoothly. I work most closely with a girl named Julie, I really like her she is easy to get along with. The only other two people that are here on a daily basis are Linda who does insurance and billing, and of course the doctor. Her names is Dr. Pansegrau, but mostly we call her Dr. P. She is super nice and very driven, overall its a great place to work. And tons of my friends are coming here so thats kinda nice.
I went to Rob's wedding it was interesting, Bike Week Daytona, enough said
Chase and I went through a hard time we broke up but now we are back together, and I think better than before
My mom and Ray are in some crazy place, I don't know wha'ts going on from day to day. Its just bad and seemingly never ending. It has also put a great strain on JoJo and mom's relationship which I do not enjoy.
Zach is working at Spencer's and currently living illegally in the dorm at IUS with his friend Tyler although they are moving into an apartment in two weeks in New Albany.
Chad still working at Wal-Mart part time and currently is living in the cubby-hole room in my house with dad and I. He may be staying and taking my room.
Related to above post Chase and I are working on moving out to get our life going, finally.
My mom had an interview yesterday at Rumpke and will know tomorrow if she gets the job, dad went to an interview at Kintec today, it'd be like a Christmas Miracle in July if both my parents could get a job.
Chase just got a new job as an assitant manager at Big O, it's closer, pays better, still has benefits and has opportunity for advancement, he will have off one day during the week, work a half day Saturday and be off Sundays. Thank goodness he's off Sundays or I would never hear the end of it during football season.
Oh, I went white water rafting it was awesome, even though I almost died sorta. The weekend was super fun.
I suppose that's enough considering this is just to catch things up. Ill try to post regularly but we will see how that goes..........
