Beautiful Day!

Hello all!!  I apologize for not writing lately.  Today is such a beautiful day!!  I would guess that it's about 70 out.  This is why I love California.  One day its 45 and raining and two days later its 70 degrees out.  LOVE it! Anyway, me, the husband, and the kid went out for a run today.  That is one nice thing about having the husband work from home...he can take his lunch break with us.  We bought a jogging stroller last weekend so I suppose we should use it.  I have been running on the treadmill lately, but its actually been really nice to go outside and run.  And the kid has a great time too.  When I'm done, we stop at the little playground in our complex so she can play.  That is obviously her favorite part.  So far its been a good start to our four day weekend.  

This week has been rather exciting for me.  I put in my resignation at work on Tuesday.  Some of you may be saying what the heck???  But others will completely understand why.  Ever since I was young, I wanted to be a stay at home mom.  Again, some may think I'm nuts.  I think that its so very important for a parent to be home with his/her child.  This is what I have wanted to do for so long.  When my husband and I bought a home in south Orange County, we knew that the dream of me staying home with our kids probably wouldn't happen.  We live in California...it's so expensive.  Thankfully, we are good with our money...(this is soooooo important!!  SAVE, SAVE, SAVE...and avoid debt!)  The husband then received a promotion at work back in September and we knew that if all went well for the next couple of months, I could eventually stay home...and here we are!  Praise the Lord!!!  We have been blessed tremendously in so many ways...this is just one of them.  Sooooo my last day at work is March 15th.  Then I will start my new job as a full time stay at home mommy.  Yay!!  As excited as I am, I am a little sad at the same time.  I love where I work.  I have made some of the bestest (yes, bestest) friends.  I work with so many wonderful people whom I will miss greatly.  This is why I cannot be the "lazy mom" that I am...I will need to get off my butt and go visit!  YES!  I will come and interrupt your day and make you laugh.  Perhaps we will even go to lunch.  .............Man, I'm going to miss my friends.

Well, I guess that's all for now.  I just wanted to share my news.  I suppose I should do some laundry while the kid is asleep.  Am I crazy for feeling like I want to go for another run???  Maybe it's cuz I have to be bikini ready in 5 weeks....  I don't know what it is but it kind of scares me.  I am not a person who likes to run.  Or do anything physical for that matter.  I'll let you know if it keeps up.  It would be a positive change.  OK.  Bye for now.  Hopefully I won't take so long to write next time and hopefully it will be more interesting.
