New to blogging

Well, I'm new to this blogging thingy, but since I know a small handful of people who do it, I figured, why not? A little about me.....I'm originally from McHenry, Illinois, but moved to Georgia in June 2007. At the time, I was married and he got a job down here. Well, times have changed, I'm no longer married, but I chose to stay here. I have two beautiful kids ~ Koleen, who is 11 and is spending her next school year with her dad in Illinois and Jordan, who is 3 and he lives with his dad in Kentucky. I work as a Receptionist/Administative assistant by day, and as a bartender 3 nights a week. Outside of all of the crazy things that have happened in my life, I must say, it is pretty good. My jobs pay my bills and I even have extra now and again. I finally have a "home" of my own and am really honestly for the 1st time in my life living independently. It makes me proud.

Today has been an interesting day. Todd (my 2nd ex, who has custody of Jordan) just called to tell me he has a potential job in Baton Rouge, La. Well, as part of our divorce decree/custody agreement, he can not move outside a 500 mile radius of where I live right now. Guess how far Baton Rouge is from me? 550 miles. He has already moved once ( a little over a month ago) to Fort Mitchell, Ky, which is 450 miles away. Crazy thing is, I thought for sure that once he moved there, it could only get better, thinking he could only move closer. Well, apparantly he doesn't see it that way. He said he will commute 2 hours to work if he has to in order to stay within the 500 mile radius. My thought is......you would rather have Jordan be in daycare for an extra 4 hours a day? Ugh! I could go on and on..... Well, enough bitching for now. When I have something a little more pleasant and positive to write about, I'll jot it down :)
