And today was one of them. I thought we'd have a nice family day. We were all home from our respective jobs/school and just planned to relax. Oscar found/possibly introduced a virus on my computer this morning and spent half the day getting rid of it. We discovered yesterday that he paid several bills using checks from our old, closed checking account. One of them was the electric bill, and I told him that we could drive down the road a mile and pay it at the city hall. I've been there before ...

Those dreaded anniversaries came and went with little fanfare this year. You know... The anniversary of finding out there was no heartbeat (July 30th) and then the subsequent delivery (August 2nd). I didn't make my usual post about how much I miss my boy for several reasons. 1) It's been four years. Time to start moving on.

I don't want to get a job at a big company writing programs, I'm more interested in learning it just for me for now but who knows where this might lead. I know I definitely want to work with computers ...

On the trip out to Disneyland, I was looking at the mountains and I remembered feeling hopeful and excited. I couldn't figure out why the mountains of the Mohave Desert would make me feel that way and I gave it considerable thought. Finally, I realized that the last time that we travelled to LA was in April of 2007, and I was pregnant. I was excited and happy and had so many plans. I remember thinking about maternity clothes and onesies and decorating a nursery as we drove down that barren road ...
