On Monday and Tuesday Jon and Shelby worked ground, it was close to 70 outside with bright sunshine. Today well we have about three inches of snow strong blowing wind and it is now 3. We have been in white out conditions all day. I think mother nature is screwing with us big time.
Shelby has been in and out of the hospital a lot this winter, she has asthma very bad and ended up with croup and pneumonia a few days before Christmas. She was getting better for a while and WAM! got hit again with double pneumonia last Friday. Then today we went to the Dr. for them to tell us she has strep throat while on a heavy antibiotic. So she is now on super duty antibiotics that make her sick. This is not the way I wanted her to start out her year.

2012
We are three days into the New Year and with saying that I can say that I am three days smoke free. I am trying to keep the resolutions I have set for my self. So far so good. My other resolutions are be a better farm wife and farm mom. Oh and have another baby. (I can get pregnant just fine its carrying them where I have my issue). Well that's all I really have to say right now I will include a few pics of Shelby from Christmas. She was very blessed this Christmas.
For some reason my sweet baby girl has decided to lean to the dark side and LOVE John Deere. Her Papa and I are trying very hard to unwash her brain.

Im going to put on a happy face
With everything that is going on around here I have to keep telling myself that I need to just put on a happy face. For the most part I am doing that, but I do have moments where I just want to cry becasue I cant do something. I was working again and happy to be even if it wasnt full time it was something and we were ok with that. I felt like I was binging in money to help with the bills. I was also able to make my work schudle work out so that I was home with Shelby when she was home. So I was still basicly a stay at home mom. I know there are people who have bigger problems than I do and I am praying for all of them but I cant help but have times where I just want to sit and cry because some lady decided to get plastered and drive. I am thankfull that I didnt get hurt worse than I did and my back made it threw the accident unharmed. I guess all in all I just need to vent a little. I hope you all have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

trying this again
I am in shock at all of the comments that I received on my last post thank you all so much. I am going to try to get better at this blogging thing. The Dr released me to go back to work in November with no restrictions. I went back to see him on the 10Th of December and told him I was having some issues, so he gave me lifetime restrictions. I am now looking at going to school in January. Oh before I get to ahead of my self on December 3rd I was on my way home from work (delivering pizzas) and a drunk lady ran a stop sign and I hit her. I have a broken leg, ankle, and a few bones in my foot. I am in a pretty pink cast. I am not letting this set back get me down. Looking at it as just another bump in the road.
Shelby is doing amazing in school! It's so hard to believe that she is half way done with Kindergarten. Listening to her read is so cool.

New Chapter?
Before I get to the main topic I guess I should start with a little back story to get everyone caught up.
In May of 2006 I gave birth to my daughter Shelby.
In January of 2009 I started dating the man of my dreams. Going from single struggling mom/farmer, to a farmers daughter, farmers girlfriend, farming mom. Now don't get me wrong I was born in to a farming family and have been my daddy's right hand man, for as long as I can remember. Being a only kid sometimes has its perks. Shelby is also being raised as a big farm kid. At 2 weeks old she helped her mommy cut wheat.
In May of 2009 I landed my dream job or so I thought. Working as a union operator, running equipment and getting paid very well for it.
On June 18Th 2009 my grandfather went to be with Jesus. Where he could walk with his own legs. (they were cut off in a bad accident in 1956 before my dad was born. But he didn't let have plastic ones slow him down though.) I was very close with him. I am still missing him horribly every day.
July 23rd 2009 will be a day I forever remember. I fell at work and broke my back. Luckily I am still able to walk and do most every thing I could before. But only after 2 very painful very invasive surgery's.
Well that mostly brings us to today. I am currently at a cross road. I am having a big issue deciding what is going to happen next in my life. I could finally after 2years go back to a job that I loved. But the hours sucked. I was working 6 10 hour days. I would love to be able to stay home and just help farm. But we lost allot of rent ground to a "corporate farm" so that is not a option at this point in time. Jon and I have talked about me going back to school but, school is not something that comes easy for me. I have dyslexia, so I learn allot differently and slower than others. I would have to take 4 English classes just to get to English 101. I am ready to but the surgery's and pain behind me and, move on with the next chapter.
Is there really a moment where it hits you that that's what you what to be when you go up. I am struggling with this because I don't want to make the wrong decision. I have been struggling with this for a while now. Do I go back to work or do I go back to school. With the going back to work I am back to missing allot of Shelby's going on's and her growing up. With school I am struggling with can I do this is it going to be worth the money? What if I fail. do I go back to work so that we have less worries about money or how to pay this or that bill. Do I go back to school while Shelby's in school so that she sees that I am bettering my self for her and am doing homework just like her. This has all been so over whelming at times. So what do I do?
Sorry I have been kinda all over the place with this post but any advice or comments will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
