A Re-Introduction of Me

I am 29 years old, but I will be turning the big 30 in about 6 or so weeks. I am a Scorpio. I am married and we will be having our 5th Anniversary in less than 2 months. We have 2 children, both wonderful boys.
Aidan, is 4, has autism, and is doing great. We still have a lot to learn together and the next year is going to have alot of changes and work, to get ready for kindergarten.
Evan will be 2 in Dec, he is so SO different from his older brother it amazes me at times. He still doesn't talk too much, and that is causing us some concern. But all other areas he has developed just great. He has a bit of a temper, but then can be a sweet lil darling cuddle bug as well.

I am trying to get on top of my life, to live a less stressful, less cluttered, cleaner, healthier life. I am making progress minus the healthy part. I seem to be gaining weight and it is kinda dragging me down. Also financially things suck big time, but I am trying not to let that get me down to much.

The house is looking good and is manageable, I am having less and less issues getting rid of things. Except the boys toys, I have a hard time with those still.

I have Incorporated the Flylady way into running my house. I don't do it exactly like they say but I used it as a guideline that suits me and mine.

I am slowly and I do mean slowly learning and practicing more wicca. I am doing my best to listen to my high self. But I have self trust issues that block it a lot :(

I am an Obama support or, I can't say he is my perfect choice, but for the most part he is in line with what I would hope for this country. I am not a debater, (usually) I can't sprout facts, quotes, or statistics to support my choice. Honestly a good deal of it is based on my gut or just what I feel in an instinctual way. Also I listen to my Beloved alot, but then make my own decision and no we do not always agree, and if we do many times it is for different reasons.

Ok I think that is a good general catch up. Talk to you soon.

I am Baaaack...Muhahaha

So I am going to try this again. I am sorry that I just kinda stopped for a while. There were no inspirational words trying to get out of my head. There really aren't any now either, but I feel I need to try. I am slowly getting on top of things again in my life so I wanted to add this to the lists of accomplishments I am making.

So far I have stopped drinking coke but 1-2x a week, I have started and pretty much kept up with a household cleaning/chore schedule. This Sat will be the 4 week mark for it :) It may not sound like much but it is a pretty good feeling. I also have been cooking real meals more, like from a recipe book. It is fun and so far nothing has sucked.

Aidan has started back to pre-school for the school year. We still have some attention and running issues but his language is getting better. The potty training is at a bit of a stand still, I think his lil bro may beat him to it, but they maybe the motivation he needs. Evan is not really talking too much. I am trying not to worry since almost all his other developmental goals are met, but I can't help a lil worry. But I figured I will wait till Dec at his 2nd Birthday to really stress.

With the financial industry and things being already tight before we have all but decided that we are moving in with my parents when our lease is up in May. I can see many good things coming from this and I know it won't be perfect but I am not gonna create any negative feelings about it. At least I can stop thinking of ways and things we need to improve this house or how to afford a new couch and other household things.

I miss my sister, spending an evening with he 2 nights ago kinda made it sink in just how much. My dad is grumpy lately, he hates how much money is bad for everyone, and now it is even hurting him.

Well that is my small update for now. I will do more later. I will try and keep in touch more.
