BLAH BLAH BLAH

Nothing new here. Right now I'm wanting to update my Blog with a new skin something cool, and since I'm not very good at the whole thing I'm stuck with what Blogger offers. I'm also looking into paying for a new skin. Just don't know what I want yet. We are still getting the house ready to sell even though I think it's good to go but, people are getting nervous and want it perfect you could say before making it available. It's crazy the market around here is so touchy feely. I have faith that everything will fall into place. However other people don't like to rely on it. Oh well we'll keep on moving forward. Last Monday I woke and felt like I was dying I didn't even have the strength to get out of bed. I got up and got Alex ready for school went down stairs to get her snack ready and make sure her book bag was ready and then asked my husband to make sure she got on the bus for me. As he came up stairs to finish getting ready to work I told him there was no way I was going to be able to take care of the other two kids that day. Thank God he nothing pressing @ work he was able to call in and tell them what was going on. I literally laid in bed all day I would wake up for about 10 mins at a time and then go back to sleep finally my husband came in a said I really needed to eat something and dinner was made. So I made my way down stairs I hadn't even seen the kids all day. Ate dinner and went right back up to bed. I felt a little better the next day, however Alex didn't so she stayed home Tues and Weds. She went to school thurs woke up with a fever fri. So she stayed home. Sat evening she had a fever and felt a little better Sunday so went to school today I just hope she'll make it through the day. The school is getting a little mad because she has missed so many days. It's kindergarten for crying out load. She has been getting sick because she picks it up at school what do they want me to do. Oh well they'll get over it. Well that all I have for today. Time to getting something done around here. We slacked off this weekend because of the nice weather. We had the first official BBQ of the season Friday night, and then carried it on into the weekend. Today is another nice day so hopefully I'll b e able to get this yard looking nice again.

So if you guys know anyone moving to N. VA and they need a house send them my way (JK. I can't do to much typing I nearly broke my right hand on Weds. And I'm still in pain, but the Dr. gave me good meds,(excuse my broken english) however I can only take them when the kids are asleep because I fear I won't be able to take care of them. (it's really good stuff) Hubby will be back Sat. He went to school for a week. Brother moved back down to FL, long story. Took a trip up to Ohio (we'll never live that far north too cold for me).

THE JOYS OF BEING PARENTS OF A SCHOOL AGED CHILD

Ok here we go,

About a week or so ago we got a letter from the school stating that there was lice found in Alex's classroom. Great so I wash all of Alex's hats and coats that she wears to school. Then Alex was sick last week with a nasty stomach virus going around she missed 3 days a school because of that, which in turn spread to the rest of the family. I've been checking her head for lice everyday when she comes home from school, because I'm a paranoid person like that, knowing that lice really is harmless, but still it's a pain in the ass to deal with. So last night Alex is digging away at her head saying it itches really bad. So I'm like oh you just have dry scalp you couldn't have lice I've been checking you and you missed just about all of school last week, so I go check her again, I low and behold she had lice, not the eggs but the bugs, so she had to have gotten yesterday while at school. So it's 8 at night and I'm off to Walmart to buy the stuff you have to use, I get home Alex had feel asleep on the couch so we wake her up put the stuff on her head let it sit for 10 mins and run up stairs change her bedding, grab her coat and hats again throw them in the wash, run back down stairs rinse her head and commence to combing through her hair with the smallest come know to man. My husband is such a great man he stayed there and combed through that childs hair for about 45 mins getting everything out. Thank god I just had her hair cut short before all this happened because I can't imagine combing through the long hair she uses to have.

SHHHHHHH I HAVE A SECRET!!!!!!!!!!

Ok I'm thinking of starting a new blog. I'll still keep this one. I'm a tabloid junkie I use them to help put me to sleep at night and to relax my mind. What reallt makes me mad however is the pictures they put in these type of mags. You can clearly tell on some of them that they just making up stuff. I was thinking of starting a what do you think type blog where I would post pics from the Mags and have people come in a give there option or caption to the pic. Just something I'm tossing around. Let me know what you think?

UNCLE SAM SHOWING THE LOVE


******************************************* Posted by Picasa


Yeah!! I filed my taxes on Friday. Uncle Sam has decided that we get a nice chunk of change back. What to do with the money. Save it yep we plan on saving it. Due to the fact that we have to buy a new house soon. We are steadily busy getting this one looking perfect. We did yard work Sat. It was a nice day so we took advantage. I haven't been feeling well these past few days. I love my husband because yesterday he had plans to work on his car and instead he let me sit on the couch while he took care of the kids and house. He even cooked dinner!! I felt guilty so I helped out a little. Hopefully today will be better. As long as I'm sitting and not moving around too much I'm fine, but as soon as I start to move around the pain sets in. Today my wonderful guy had to go to work so I'm on my own. We are planning on going house hunting at the beginning of Feb and see what is out there. Hopefully we'll win HGTV'S DREAM HOME and not have to worry. Oh there was a house burglary in our neighborhood this past Thursday. They broke in broad daylight. We know the people who live there. Can't say to much because of the amount my hubby is involved with the whole thing. Well that all for now kiddies. I need to change the clothes over at the very least I can get that done today.

I'M A BAD GIRL

Ok I've been pretty bad about blogging lately. We have been so busy around here. We have officially listed the house(will post the link as soon) to get the word out. However it is listed Temp. off market until we can get it de cluttered and looking like a model home. You know it looks like someone lives there but never uses anything all day long. That should be easy right? (3 kids 2 dogs 3 cats + 1 brother) We had a great Christmas and New Year caused a little trouble in the neighborhood for New Year, oh well it wouldn't be a party if there was no trouble being caused. The kids have been sick for the past 3 days so that's always fun, husband's work (US ARMY) being a pain in the ass also. It wouldn't be the Army if they weren't. We've just been working on the house filling in holes and touching up paint and cleaning. We put up crown molding in the Library and living room (that was fun. We have weaned the dogs off sleeping in their crates @ night they are doing great no problems. We have moved Taylor into a toddler bed she was climbing out off the crib. She is doing better than I was expecting. She's only gotten out one time and fell asleep by her door and when I went to check on her I hit her in the head with the door. Oops. After that no probs. Alex is doing great in school she has been out for the two days due to having stomach issues (yeah me)! Curtis is, well a male (need I say more)? So it's official we are moving to PA and the report date in no later than Aug 06. Hubby goes to school from April-June which leaves me to sell and buy a house, all with hoping that we don't sell to early and have no place to live until hubby gets back at the end of June. Hopefully I won't have to deal with the movers all by myself. Yuck I hate moving. I hope this post finds everyone with a great start to their New Year.

P.S Yeah Desperate Housewives is back.
P.S.S Snarkwife I'm going to miss your recaps. LOL!!!!!!

IF YOU REARRANGE THE LETTERS IN SANTA YOU GET SATAN!!!!!!!!! (well isn't that special)

Ok so I have decide if we have to move I better start getting rid of stuff that I didn't even know it existed. I started with the pantry and kitchen yesterday, so far I have a box and 2 trash bags full of stuff I was keeping (the reason is unknown), next on the chopping block is the kids rooms and clothes I'm getting rid of all the clothes and shoes that no longer fit them. They hate when I do this because I make them try on everything to make sure it doesn't fit them anymore. Then on to the toys that are broke or don't work anymore. I really hate Christmas when it comes to this. My kids all ready have enough toys why do they need SANTA to bring them more right? Well not to get off subject, but SANTA isn't bringing them that much this year. That's not to say relatives aren't. They are each getting 1 thing from their list to SANTA. I asked them if SANTA can only bring one thing from your list what is the one you want the most. Then I got them 2 things from mommy and daddy, and a few stocking stuffers to track back to the one toy they are getting from SANTA. My husband has been home a lot and not traveling for awhile. He was able to pick up a little 97 Acura for 1500.00 which has helped out with the gas situation. I feel bad for my Tahoe, she just sits there in the drive way. Unless we have to take all the kids with us. We have gotten some snow around here and they are calling for some more on Thursday, well rain and snow mixed which is the worst. Sorry for all the bouncing around it's one of them days.

Well that's all for today kiddies.

DROPPING A BOMB

Ok talk about dropping a bomb. The military has decided that it's time for us to move. Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!! (right) My husband was able to get a hold of the guy that does the reassignments for CID . He gave us a few options.

1. Ft Polk LA
2. Carlisle Barracks PA
3. Aberdeen Proving Grounds MD
4. Ft Lee VA
5. Ft Meade MD
6. Ft Rucker AL
7. Ft Hood TX
8. Ft Monmouth NJ

SO we have been busy doing research. Here is what we came up with.

Ft Rucker (there is no way I can live in AL) reminds me of home.
Ft Lee and Ft Meade were dependent on another person which every one he chose we would get the other. (Too much risk in that)
Aberdeen Proving grounds too expensive
Ft Monmouth BAH rate is 2138.00 (need I say more)
Ft hood (ha ha now that's just too funny)
So that leaves us with Carlisle Barracks. Which is about 3 hours from where we live now. So when it comes to moving all the kids and animals it just makes since. With it being 3 hours tops away from here means I can still keep in touch and visit the friends we have here.
And the #1 reason
HERSHEY PARK yes will we will be living really close to Hershey PA.
ok not the real #1 reason but hey it's up there. Target, Olive Garden, A mall, Skiing, car shows. So off to the races for us. We are now waiting on dates so we can begin the process that is called PCS. We are taking a trip up there Sat. to check things out and see if we can afford to buy a house or live on post.

WHAT A WEEK

Well I know I haven't posted for a week now. It really doesn't have to do with my HUSBAND BEING HOME really, ok maybe a little. However things have been crazy around here with the weather change and kids getting sick and me trying to fight getting sick. So I guess I'll run down the week with you all. As we all know his flight was delayed 24 hours. 30 mins before I was suppose to leave to get to the airport I asked my oldest if she wanted to go and pick up daddy with me, she was so excited because she had no clue he was coming home. So we got in the car we left the house @ 1740 and got to the airport @ 2000. There was a ton of traffic and I went the long way. (there was a shorter way) We got there with 20 mins or so to spare which was fine because Alexandra and was bouncing off the walls and I don't know if I could have taken that in an airport for more than 30 mins.. We got home around 2330 that night. Friday it was up early to get Alexandra off to school. My husband found out on Friday that he was going to outprocess with CRC on Weds. Cool however CRC is in GA. So his flight left yesterday and comes home Friday. Try explaining that one to your kids, who think daddy is leaving them again. Which he almost didn't make it to the airport for the flight due to a late pick up(and traffic)from the service he uses to get him to the airport. The weather has changed. So we are all getting runny noses. I was really looking forward to not having to use gas or electric for a least a month but that isn't the case. We've had to turn the heat on. We keep it @ 62 though. In the morning it's programmed to heat up to 70 and cut off around 1000, when the sun starts to shine throughout the house. This weekend is going to be a long one. Alexandra is out of school Friday and Monday. We are getting ready for Halloween. We always do something big for the kids in the neighborhood. This year we have a pirate theme. We are turning our house into a ship and the yard into an island where the treasure in buried. It's so fun because all the kids no we always do something but this year we are waiting until Sunday evening to put anything up. So all the kids are trying to guess what we are going to be doing. My calendar for Nov is filling up quickly. My hubby is going to be taking pretty much all of Nov off for leave. Hopefully we won't want to kill each other by the time his leave is up. JK. Well the kids are yelling for me and the beds need to be made. So I'm off to the races if I can knock out the house work early I can lay around the rest of the day. I'm no feeling to well myself and I'm trying to fight it off. I figure if I keep moving it won't catch me, we'll see if that works.

Thank you to everyone who has sent me kind words of encouragement and those who have checked on me. Again I'm living proof that they do come home. I'm already looking back and saying WOW time flew by. Now on to the next step after the honeymoon is over we have to get back to normal.

More to come

0900

Got a phone call. He has landed in Germany, getting ready to board for the final flight. So far so good. I'm not crossing my fingers yet. I guess it's time for me to pick up the pace around here and put the final touches on a few things. Nothing special planned this time around. Maybe so dinner at his fav fast food rest. I really wanted to stay at a hotel. However with Alex having school tomorrow I don't have anyone who can get her off to school in the morning. Oh well.

Until Later
