A week and a month.

Its been just over a week since I have been here to post....and its just shy (two days) of being a month since Kaya was born. Time seems to be standing still and blazing past me all at the same time.

Work sort of sucks. There is a big menu change coming. (20th) And really for the most part, its sort of crazy, and going to cause me all kinds of issues at work.

For those who do restaurant work. We keep portioned burgers in a sliding drawer under the flat top. Good idea, if not a little rough on the back at the end of a Friday night. With the change nothing is portion anymore. So we have to scoop out burgers by order. Well when you sell some 200 mini burgers, and around 100 regular burgers, you spend a lot of time bent over....and not just in the non innuendo sort of way.

Kaya has had a "diaper rash". Not really what it was, and took us forever to get it under control. Which it now is. But now we have switched her to soy formula, as the regular just seemed to make her a huge gas bag that pooped like every 4 hours. It has been sort of rough.

I just read a article. 10 years later, the real story behind Columbine .

A pretty sobering view of what really happened, and what really could have happened and what really we get to see from the news....from the police, from our parents, and our teachers. From our mothers and fathers, from the people we trust.

Here we were all lead to believe that this JUST HAPPENED, and yet. It did not. It was WELL thought out, well planned. It was so much more, and could have been even so much more than that.

I have not been on Warcraft in almost a week, as whatever they did this patch has made it so that I cannot log in. I thought we were passed these days so long ago.

Its finally nice here in Michigan. 70 today, and yesterday, and its supposed to dip in the next couple days back down to a little below normal, but I will take it.

Might hit The Zoo today, who knows. It is just nice to sit. And I am so tired. Home from work at 1 ish, up about 5 with Kaya. I think its the reason I am having such a hard time with my days, really.

My birthday was monday, and it was great. Shannon and I took the kids to her parents and we went out. Only for a couple hours, but it was so nice to sit and talk. to have a could drinks out and just have a good time, and not really worry about all the crap going on around us for awhile.

I am so happy with Kaya, and Shannon and The Boys, yet at the same time I miss not having the extra weight of worry. Everytime Kaya smiles at me or looks AT me. The other day, she almost laughed. Shannon and I had been talking int he kitchen, and I was holding Kaya up and off to my right. I looked over and there she was with this HUGE grin on her face. She almost got a laugh out. I could feel it in her muscles as I held her.

This is also the first time in I cannot remember how long that I have sat here with headphones on and listened to music.

Hope everyone enjoys themsevles till I get around to posting again.
