Birthday, Moving, Car Blow Ups,and Bugs oh my!

Fisrt of all, Miss Jennifer Lynn Huntowski turned the ripe old age of 24 last Friday. I really missed not being there for her celebration, but it sounded like her dad and brother gave her a proper celebration. I am very proud of Jennifer and all she is doing to try and make a better life for herself. Oh, and if you don't know, Huntowski is the Polish way of spelling Hunt:) Jennifer we love you and miss you. We moved into our house last Friday and things are going well. We currently have 2 air mattresses, a small sofa type bed, 2 camping chairs a tv and a computer to keep us entertained. While we had no complaints about our temporary housing, being able to have more then one room sure is nice. We are very excited for Daddy and Steve to be joining us at the end of this week!!!!!!!!!!! David and I will be working a stones throw away from each other. We didn't plan it that way, but are glad that it did. A little bit of a downer is that David's car died on him last night. Today did not reveal very good news. Apparently he "threw a bearing from his engine" which I have been told is not good. He initially had it towed to a repair shop, but had to then have it towed to Hyundai to see if it will be covered under warranty. If is is not covered under warranty, the cost to fix it will be about $5000.00. Gulp! If the expense is on him, he will be getting a different car. His car is only a 2006 with 86000 miles, so way too young to have this happen. And last but not least. the bugs!!! I forgot how much bigger the bugs grow in the south. Because our house sat vacant for 4 months, I think the bugs feel they own the place. I am talking 3-4 inch bettle type bugs that scare the bejeebers our of me. Of course doing the single parenting thing means I have to stay positive and kill the buggers, all the while wanting to cry. We have made huge progress in this department. I think I have sprayed enough anti bug toxins around the house to kill a small army. This night I found only three of them in the house, on their backs, struggling to try and come back to life. I LOVE the fact that they die a slow painful, paralyzing death. They like to come out at night and I see them walking aournd outside. According to my peeps at work you just have to learn to live with them.........we'll see about that. Over all life in Georgia is going well. I can't wait to be reunited with my husband and turn the bug killing duties over to him.
