Why yes it has, I need to get back into weekly posting so I dont have to sit here and replay the last 6 months in my head.

My mom and dads divorce is final, its been a year since they split, still feels pretty weird but I guess anything like that takes some getting used to.

On another mom note, just as she was getting over the heart surgery and all those complications, they found that she had breast cancer. Thankfully she gets mammograms yearly so it was small. They removed it and are pretty much sure they got it all, but she is still doing chemo to make sure its gone. She is halfway through treatment and handling it pretty well. Just the usual tiredness and sluggishness. Its been pretty surreal, but since they caught it early, a full recovery is expected. (with consistent checkups and tests of course. Another example of how yearly mammograms after 40 are pretty much mandatory!

I've been sick the past 5 or so days, like stay in bed in your pajamas with no makeup ever..for 5 days. I don't get sick very often at all, and thank god because it sucks.

Alex is going to be done with school this year, which means that our move to austin all of a sudden is about a year away. Thank god.. because I love Austin and I can't wait to live there. If this year goes by as fast as the last, I'll be there in no time. I'm already looking at apartments, but if you austinites have any tips, I'd appreciate it.

Also Blair, where are you going to cosmetology? I think I'll pick it back up once we settle in.

I'll update more often, I promise.
