Hi there!

Wow....I pulled up my blog spot and was totally depressed! I have not been on here since October 10th? What has the Gharing Clan been up to, you may ask? What has kept you from logging in and taking a few minutes to say hello? Are you just being lazy? Are you still alive???? Well, the Gharing Clan has had a few hills and many valleys the last couple of months. Since October, we have had Halloween, Thanksgiving, lost a job, found a job, celebrated Christmas, New Years, started the new job, had a birthday, got use to job time difference, had a few melt downs, started a new diet, booked our vacation, traded a car in, bought a new car, Karley is now an old women (got neutered), had spring break and just lived. Dang.....I need a Prozac. Let me start from the beginning....Halloween was wonderful. The weather was great for the boys, Trenton was Toothless from How to train your Dragon and Tucker was....wait for it... a clone trooper from Star Wars. We then went right into Thanksgiving, which was a wonderful week in Pennsylvania, no snow but it was still nice. Then on December 3, our world, or so we thought, came to a stop. Rich was let go from Wal-Mart, now known in our home as WalNasty. But God is good, he outstretched that hand to help us up. Rich found a new job right before Christmas. Actually on December 22nd to be exact. He now works for Yates, Inc. which works in the Nissan plant here in Murfreesboro. He works 5 days a week 7:30-5:45. We have had to work out the kinks, but God always has a plan, it has been great for all of us. Christmas was wonderful, I think this is the first year that we actually looked at the true meaning of Christmas, I am sad to say that. God sent his little innocent baby for us! He loves us no matter what! Can I get an Amen.....oops sorry, I am Lutheran, we do not do that.....2011 started and we have been off on a run ever since.

Trenton and Tucker are doing great in school. Trenton will be going to the big Middle School next year, sniff. Tucker....well Tucker was sent to the principles office for the first time, grrr. We will talk about that another time. Rich loves his new job and we have so much more time as a family at night. Tucker and Rich have started doing P90X at night and Trenton and I have had time to cuddle and giggle while we watch Tuck and Dad. Both Rich and I have started to eat better and started working out. I am walking and even started to jog a little....this is something because I have a whole lot to get going.... We have 88 days until we are going..are you ready??? to Disney. I have always wanted to take my boys there. I hope things work out and we are able to go.

Well, I think that catches you up for now on what has been going on at Patch of Heaven. I have missed blogging, I have missed the normalcy of life, but I think it has settled in and hopefully you will be hearing alot from me. Well, I will be typing you will be reading....I hope. Talk to you soon! Over and out from the Patch!
