Why do kids have to tattle?? Really?? Drives me insane! Like they need help getting into trouble...but they still come out and tattle. I can hear them laughing, but as soon as something happens Madison will tell on Makayla. Never fails.
Today was a good day with the kids for the most part. They started to not listen to me around dinner time. Go figure. Other than that I was having an off day...feelings of abandonment and such because the only 2 friends I have managed to make are busy, which doesn't bother me at all. I'm use to being alone, they both did it at about the same time. I will get over it and move on. Hopefully make a new friend or something I don't know.
One just found out she is pregnant and has been hanging out with another of the wives. The other's hubby came home from training and they are going to have a baby in October. It sucks being the older person and having 2 kids. It's not as easy to go do things. I really wish I had someone that I could send the girls to for the weekend. I really miss that option. I never used it much, but when I did it helped...and right now all I want to do is cry. :(
I'm going to go soon and register them with the Child Youth Services. I will get 16 hours of free child care, but can only take it in 4 hour blocks. Plus they have hourly that's $2 an hour per child. Along with sports that Maddie can do. I just really miss Jeremy. I hate the nights. It's never bad during the day but at night...it really sucks.
I finally got my donut of misery to work! We are 7% done...have a long long way to go...Please let November get here soon! I really want to go home. I miss my mom!
Well, it's been about three months since I posted last. Where to start.
We have a nice house and are all settled in! :)
About a month ago my hubby deployed... :( Sucks. As of August 3rd he's been in for a year! But, of that year we have only been together for 5 months :( Really stinks, but we knew this is something that we would have to deal with. We were as prepared for the lack of time as we possibly could have been. I made sure after his 6 months of BCT and AIT that I kept my mind set as him not being there to do things for me. That way when he left it wasn't a total "OMG he's gone and I have no one to do such and such".

So far this has been a crappy time. I baby sit the devils spawn...the oldest boy decided to take a lighter and burn things in my daughters' room (that was week 1) then today he decided to play with a gas can I had out. I mowed the lawn and when I came back out I seen wet spots on the ground and on the rubber piece on the back on the mower.
Not to mention both girls are pushing me! Yesterday Maddie was AMAZING. She has been doing laundry for a few days (even washes only 5 things because she can't find anything else...I told her to wait until it's full), then she decided to clean the litter box, take the trash bag out of the trash can and put it by the door, and she also moved the dog cage and swept up the spilled dog food. But today....OMG. Terrible! Like worse than ever type of terrible. I baby sat and none of the 5 kids would listen, then after they left MY kids still wouldn't listen. Keep getting into things that they KNOW they shouldn't. UGH!!!
Hopefully tomorrow will be better. I really need to start a journal of all the GOOD things that happen during the day. That way I can look back and go "It wasn't ALL bad"...Maybe tomorrow I will.
I also am trying to lose weight. I'm eating better (less junk and more healthy snacks), and doing more "exercises" than I normally did. Hopefully I will start seeing something soon. Would be great to be at my goal weight when he comes home for R&R.
Can not wait until he comes home! Miss him SO much! He is my soul mate, my world, the love of my life! Being away from him and not being able to see him is KILLING ME. I have seen him on Skype 3 times since he's left! UGH! :(

Well today was a good day. The girls were really good. We went to my grandparents house and had a family get together. My great aunt and uncle came from the west coast and I had never met them before. Some of my family think that my Great Grandma was hanging on in hopes that they would make it out here and that now that they came out she will let go. So it might not be to long, which is sad to think about. She's lived a full life though. Makes me sad to think about leaving now...
My grandparents live at the lake but today it wasn't warm enough to go swimming. Well, Mak was the one to get into the water anyway. LOL. She got in up to her knees then Maddie noticed and went in after her...so both my kids were wet. Go figure. Other than they they were great! I wish we had more days like this.
I need to find activities that we could do to keep them busy or something that way they are not just driving me crazy. I'm sure I can come up with something. Plus with school starting she should be busy. Plus we will get time apart during the week.
I think the time apart will make Jeremy and I a lot closer. He's started to apologise for the way he's treated me (which wasn't bad all the time) and for not helping me out more around the house and with the girls. He says that when he gets home he will prove how sorry he is. I told him I'm keeping all the letters as proof and will hold him to it. LOL.
1 month 16 days until I get to see him! I'm excited! I can't wait to see him. I miss him so much!

Oh lordy, it's been a long while. Let me see. Last time I was here I was still pregnant. I now have a 5 month old baby girl. She is getting BIG. Trying to crawl and play with her big sis and the dogs...which by the way we got another one. He is driving me INSANE!
I'm STILL trying to get the house situated. My mom moved out, and we have the house to ourselves. We are painting the living room right now (will post pictures sometime). Got tired of white walls and paneling. I lived in apartments for 3 years that I couldn't paint the white walls dang it I'm going to do it now!! Next will be the hallway, mainly because there is now permanent marker on the wall. Then probably the girl's room. Going to do that in Dora.
Other than taking care of the family, not a whole lot has gone on. I'm "looking" for at least a part time job that I can work evenings. Not going to swell. The stupid gas station has been out of applications for 2 weeks at least! Drives me nuts. I don't want to drive to far away and spend my check on just gas, that will defeat the purpose of me getting a job!
Well, that's pretty much all that's going on. I'm sure I will have more to write about! It's late, I have to put Jer's work clothes in the dryer before I can go to bed so I thought I'd hop on here.
