Disappearing Act :)

So I've not been on here in awhile.  Just got caught up in everyday life I guess!  I'm still waiting on the IWO to be put in so Ava's deadbeat donor has to pay child support.  She will be 15 months on the 4th!  How time flies!  It seems like just yesterday I was in the hospital having her. 

Abi has been having some issues with focusing in the classroom.  So I've been having to deal with that drama with her teacher.  Her teacher would like me to have her tested for ADD...but instead of that, I've looked into the alternatives to medicine that can help with focus.  So I'm giving those a try before actually going to a doctor and them probably wanting her to be on some meds that could turn her into this zombie child.  I know that might not happen, but I want to exhaust all my other options before turning to that. 

I'm talking to a guy.  I've been celibate for going on 2 years now, and it's helped me get my head on straight.  I promised myself that I wouldn't do IT again until I was positive I was in a healthy relationship that I felt strongly would last.  This guy's name is Mike.  He's a cop, and goes to church regularly.  I really think that he could be a good influence for myself and my girls.  He has raised 4 kids on his own, and they all seem to have their heads on straight.  Well the 17 year old is a hassle...but what 17 year old isn't?!  So I know he has a good track record there.  I have high hopes for it, but it doesn't seem like we ever have time for one another..so that's something we have to work on. 

I'll keep you posted on that end...praying that I get Abi straightened out in school, and praying that this guy is "the one."
