Back from Ohio



So long time no see. I am happy to be back home with the hubby, but I cannot say that I don't miss my family or the cold weather. We had a wonderful trip, and Leah grew so much during that time. She now has six teeth and is standing at times without holding onto anything. She is also taking steps with help of course. The last thing she started doing is saying "dada", so that was a nice treat for Aaron when we got back.
I really miss being able to see my family whenever, and I miss not sweating my butt off during the summer. I am, however, happy that my family is not going through the economic crisis that is occurring up there. Every time the news came on, it would talk about how this or that city is laying off more policemen or firefighters. It also talked about all the plants that were getting shut down.
It makes me sad to know so many people are losing there homes because both the mother and father lost their jobs, and people are even having a hard time finding part time jobs up there. They in high demand.
The trip to Ohio was bitter sweet. If the economy was not in the shit hole it is, I would not mind moving up there. I love the weather, and it is so beautiful where my parents live. I hope you all took care of yourselves. Have a good one.
