Today Me and the kiddos decided to head to Bullhead shopping........

First we gathered up all our recycling cans, plastic, ect and on the way to bullhead stopped in needles to turn it all in, it makes us feel like we are doing something good for the environment.

Once in Bullhead our first stop was Kohl's, then Hallmark, Sam's Club, and Dollar tree. then we headed home so we could see Mark for a short time while he was on his break before going back to work for the night. he worked a split today went in at 9am worked till 3pm and then had a break till 5pm and then will work till closing.

Thursday May 6 2010

So I was suppose to work at 9am again this morning but mark had to work at 12 noon and it would've only given me 2 hours to work before coming back home so he could leave...So when I went in to work Bill told me not to worry about it and take the day off.

Mark and I discussed more about whether or not I was to quit my job due to the fact his schedule is super hectic right now and will be working all the time whenever and anytime due to the promotion. So we came to our final conclusion that for now I will quit and be with the kiddos again fulltime! :D Right now this is the best decision for our family..that way the kiddos at least have me all the time....And hopefully as time comes Mark will be able to figure out a somewhat fixed schedule so he can spend some time with me and the kiddos. I am very happy for him, but at the same time a little worried that his career will consume our lives!

Started first day of thourough spring cleaning......Each day I will choose an area to clean and go through everything.......Today I started with the Guest Bathroom!

Happy Cinco De Mayo!

I work at 9am but have to be done by 12 noon today to be back home for Mark to leave for work..He has to be there as soon as I get home and works till closing tonight! This is his first official week with the new promotion even though he started immediately last week, this week the new schedule for everyone takes effect! He will have Monday, Tuesdays off and work lots and lots the rest of the week..........I will barely see him during the week except for his 2 days off. And Monday is the only day we have together and as a family! This is a great opportunity for our family with his new promotion but at the same time, we will loose him at home......

Conference call with Burgandy's Teacher today! she only has 3 more weeks of kindergarten......

Mark called me from work at about 8pm with some great news!

He got offered a promotion to be head Chef....

he wanted to talk with me before he accepted the position..Of course I told him what a great oppotunity this was for him and our family. So he accepted! :D I am so happy for him and very proud!

He will start immediately taking over the responsibilities......this means lots and lots of working...but in the end its all worth it! He has deserved this for a very long time.........
