Catching Up

Wow it has been a while but I thought I would catch up. Out house was broken into on Oct 24th and it freaking sucked. This creepy little bastard used a code grabber to get in the garage. He stole all George’s tools, my lap top, purse, meds, wallet, cigarettes, etc...We are just grateful that no one was hurt, including the boys.

The cops did nothing. I had to do all the leg work to get security tapes of this tweaker using my debit card at the grocery store. Then I practically had to beg the cop to go get the tapes because they would not release them to me. All the cops did when we called and said we were robbed was come to the house an hour and a half after we called, give me a spiffy pamphlet that explains why the city does not do jack crap for you unless it involves giving you a speeding ticket, tipped his hat and said ‘have a nice day ma’am.’ And rode off into the sunset like he saved the freaking day or something. Worthless.

I have put myself in a sort of cable news hiatus. I am tired of being the progressive representative in Colorado Springs. I am just a little tired of being constantly told I am wrong. When I watch the news I just get riled up and I am tired. So for a while I have just decided to nod my head and smile.

We refinanced the house because CitiMortgage sucks. If you have your mortgage through them or considering getting one through them DON’T! They will rip you off.

We had a great Thanksgiving with all the parents at May and Gordy’s. It was a nice day of fun, family and food.

Our oven broke which totally sucked. But Mike and Robbie very graciously bought us a new one as a Christmas present. Thank you so much!

Our wonderful friend Kristen, who is an amazing photographer, came over the other day and took tons of pictures for our Christmas card. She took pictures of us and the boys and I am very excited about that as a picture junkie.

George started his new job as a claims adjuster for USAA. It is a much more challenging job for him and he is loving it. Every day he comes home with new stories of claims that are always entertaining. It is nice to see him in a job that clearly makes him so happy:)

We are very excited about Christmas because we are going to Wyoming to see Maggie and Justin and the girls. We have not seen them in what seems like forever and it should be tons of fun:)

So even though getting robbed sucked, life is pretty good:)
