Hi Everyone! I hope all who have stumbled apon this are doing well!! I was reading a blog of an old friend tonight and remembered I should update my own.

We are all doing good. The store down town is hanging in there. We relize it is hard for most small businesses out there and that does not exclude us.

I will be starting a new job on Wednesday, September 16th. My friend Julie Mac is moving with her family to Rockwall. She is the current host for the morning show on MIX 107.7. I will take her place. I can continue my at home promotions work and still have the time with the kids in the afternoon. So I think it will work out!! Wish me luck on this one!!

Here's some new pics of the kids. They are all growing up too fast!!

I saw my baby girl fall asleep twice in the same day.... Why is that such a big deal, some may ask. Well, It was just bittersweet to me. I saw Ruby Jack's dozing eyes and then the final blink and big breath just before sleep just took over her. Especially after the second time I realized how much I had been missing. Not with just Ruby Jack, but with my other children too. It was a sad and happy moment mixed all together.

I recently changed my job schedule around so that I could start a new career that I have wanted to do for a very long time. I am now a certified record promoter!! To be certified...you just have to know the right people, get your foot in the door and then pretend you know what you are doing!! lol. I had worked on the other end of this job for about eight years. I was a music director at the radio station and record promoters would call me once a week to check on certain artist and try to get you play their songs. I always thought...well I can do that. So I finally found an outlet and now I'm working allot from home. Its fun work and it keeps me close to my passion...music! I'm still on k95.5 mid-days from 9:30 to 3 but I go in early each morning and record it.

So...I started keeping Ruby Jack at home with me a couple of days a week. It's been great to be able to have more time with her since it seems like she changes every minute.

HELLO!!!

Hey everyone!!!

I don't even know if anyone looks at this any more I know that I haven't in a while. But I do hope that this blog finds you all healthy and happy!! We are all doing well in the Lenoir household. Our new addition RubyJack is such a joy!! We are all looking forward to the Hamfest this year and it looks like we have alot more people joining in for the fun!!

Payten and Rhett are doing great too. School has started and so has the whirl wind schedule of breakfast, school, work, sports, Dr. and dentist appointments, band, music lessons, homework, chores, supper, baths, bed....!!!!

Somedays I don't know how we get it all done...oh that's right we don't! lol.

Anyways it's all a part of life and I have to say that I'm lovin' mine. I have a blessed family and that's something to be thankful for and a really cool thing!!

Been a while...

Hey all,
It's been a while since I cked in so just wanted to say hello. All in well on our side of town and we are starting to really prepare for a new little person around here. Richard has been working non stop to get the ham shack moved outside to the new studio!! I think that he went from Friday after work this weekend straight though just a little bit ago...it's now Sunday night. I know that it will be worth all the hard work once we see the finished product but we are at the point where it is grueling to walk out there.
My work is going well. And I can't wait until my part of the studio is finished so that I can show it off and really get to work on some voice work right here from home!!
The kids are doing good too. Rhett's back appointment went great and he is set for two years now before he has to return for another check up.
Payten has really gotten into playing her guitar lately and it's exciting to see her learning more and getting better at it. Her little band is now named...Crosstown Connection. They are available for short gigs...they know six songs now...lol.

Nashville Fun

2008-03-07T23:13:00.002-06:00

Hey Everybody!! Hope everyone has had a fun week. How about the snow?? Crazy huh? The kids really enjoyed it! I've been in Nashville since Tuesday this week. It's Friday and I'll be flying home tomorrow. I am more than ready to be home. But it has been an incredible week. I thought that I had seen lots of country stars throughout my radio career but this week really did me in. Normally when you go to a concert it's one or two singing stars and thousands of fans. Here, this week...it seemed to be the opposite. Everywhere I turned there was a country singer or someone who played in their band or someone who wrote the song. It was really amazing for me. Just today..I saw George Jones, The Oak Ridge Boys, Keith Urban, Jewel, Trent Tomlinson, John Rich of Big and Rich, and Taylor Swift and then tons of newcomers that you probably would not recognize. Just very very cool for me.
I would be up all night if I tried to tell you all the exciting events of this week. I met so many great people in the business and I am so thankful that I was able to experience this event for the first time.
I think Richard survived a week on his own with the kids and I am so proud of him. Most of all I'm so glad that he took over both of our roles for the week so that I could have this experience. He is my greatest gift in life and my best friend.
Can't wait to get home and get back in the groove!! It's always fun to get away for a bit but there's no place like home!!

ps..thanks Karmyn for pickin up the kids this week!!! you are awesome and i owe you one!!

Finally Friday!!

Hey everybody!! Going into another weekend! I'm so glad it's Friday! Payten's 13th birthday party went so well last weekend even with the rain...we were are relieved when it was over. I had alot of help from friends in getting it all together and so I'm so grateful for everyone's help. And Richard turned out to be a great DJ for the kids!!
My mom had to be taken to the hospital this past Tuesday. She fainted at work and seems to have come down maybe with the flu or something. It's kind of being passed about through the family. She got to come home on Thursday but she was still not doing too well.
My pregnancy is going very good. Although I feel like there is an alien inside of me at times. I'm so glad that everything has been easy so far.
I will be traveling to Nashville the first week in March for a country radio seminar. It's put on every year and this is the first time that I have been able to attend. There will be lots of country stars there meeting and greeting and then just lots of information type events going on that I can benefit from while attending. Richard will have total control of the kids while I'm gone so you friends of ours might want to ck in on him now and again to make sure that he's still holding down the fort ok. I think he'll be fine. (fingers crossed..just in case)
We are headed to Marshall tomorrow to see Richard folks there. Just looking forward to a nice weekend!!
That's about it from my end of the world. Hope everyone is doing well and stays healthy!!

Monday Howdy!!

Hey yall!!
Hope everyone had a great weekend. Richard went to the Hamfest in Ada and Payten and I went SHOPPING!! Funny how you can look up one day and realize that your kids have outgrown almost all of their clothes. So to stop further embarrassment of my almost 13 year old...we got her some new duds. She was very grateful and I must say that it was nice to see her in a new dress for church instead of old blue jeans with holes. Rhett spent the weekend with his MeMe again. She lives in the country in Clarksville and he gets to run wild there.
Well back at work on a Monday! The day is going good and hopefully a good rest of the week will follow.
We have Payten's 13th birthday party this Saturday so that's the focus of the week at home. How to pull off this thing with out breaking the pocket book??!!
Pregnancy is going good still! I think Richard is getting sick more than me. He's had a rough couple of weeks.
Hello to Rocky and Roxane too! Glad to hear that yall are listening to me on the air!!
Hope to hear some of you on the net this Wednesday too!
That's all for now. Thanks for stopping by!!
