Birthday randomness

By -
It's raining, I hope it rains more. I miss rain.

I have a hard time celebrating on my birthday. It has nothing to do with me thinking I am old. I don't think I am old I think I'm 16! (my body knows better though) I am however getting to a point where I am able to seperate me as the person from the events of today.

If I have lied to you about my age at any time, please know this was accidental, I seem to usually default to 32, so I guess I stopped aging then.

I have recently been re-evaluating what I believe, believe in, and why I believe it. I certainly think we are the champions of our destiny. The only way for things to change, is to change them.

Bacon cake is good. Call me crazy but chocolate bacon cake is the wave of the future!

I am so blessed by my friends. Between Angie (who would be here in 5 seconds if I needed her, because she is awesome like that ) and my PTA Green girls, I was able to cover everything I need for my boys while Paige is in the hospital, in about 5 seconds. I love my friends!

Paige is having surgery on the 14th, the kid is a trooper. Hopefully only be in the hospital a few days. She amazes me. Win or lose she always does her best at everything. I believe in her!

Connor is not phased by the fact that the number of people who call him "fluffy" grows a bit each day.

I miss frozen yogurt Mondays.

My dog just locked himself in the bathroom.. (he does that a lot)

I am going on a diet and goign to lose weight and get healthy. This is the last time I will do this. I say this is the last time, because I am not going to fail this time. I believe in me!

My friend Marsi is such a huge inspiration to me. She is literally in the fight of her life, but her courage and determination have taught me so much in the past few weeks. She has shown me not only the true character of her heart, but of my own as well.

I need to stock up on grapefruit juice.

Looking forward to having a lovely cup of "decaf" with Laurie this morning.

I don't want to get out of bed.

I have re-connected with a whole lot of people on facebook recently, it is kinda cool! I like feeling closer to family and friends that I don't see very often.

I kinda love taking pictures. Our new camera is fun. I still haven't read the owner's manual.

My kids just brought me breakfast in bed. I guess laying up her until almost 6:10 paid off this morning.

Smokey has decided to be very cuddly lately. I wouldn't mind this if he wanted a big snuggle during the day, but the the 3:00 a.m. flying leap onto my chest is getting a little old.

I need to start the Christmas jammies. I haven't yet. I said I may just buy them this year, and my husband almost cried :P, so off to get fabric! :) I am thinking perhaps a super hero theme this year.

Garrett's glasses broke last night. Tanner's are still broken, they will both be heading to school sans glasses today.

Because we are military wives

By -
We spend 4 hours with our husbands in a uniform shop, followed by two hours looking for the right size of boot, because any time together right before a deployment is still time together. We try not to take the little things for granted for they become the biggest things when we don't have them any more. We stand in tears on piers, and are comforted and comfort women we've never met, because we all are feeling the same way. We cringe a little when people say "your so strong" because inside we are dying. We put on a strong face for our kids, so we can dry their tears, and calm their fears, and hide away that we have the same ones. We sleep alone most of the time, we worry, we cry, and we get up the next day and face life head on. We try to smile and brush it off, when people who don't know any better tell us how lucky we are because of all the "benefits."Medical, housing et al.. Not having to pay for a physical really doesn't make up for all the mi...

parental poll

A friend made a comment today that got me thinking. (dangerous I know) So, I was wondering, (if ya'll wouldn't mind chiming in) at what age your kids either did or will do the following activities... ok so survey says..... How old was/ or will you child be when you let them.... play outside with no parental supervision- sleep over at a friend's house - wear make-up - have a bed time later than 7:30 - go on a date - there are no right or wrong answers here, just curious.  Everyone is different and what works for one may not work for another, so no answers will be judged.. I am just wondering where I fall in the averages :)

It never seems to fail. I go shopping.. doesn't matter where.. just out shopping. Having myself a grand ol' time, whether it be shopping for groceries or things a lot more fun than that, shopping. Shopping is great, until.... I leave the confines of the store/mall etc, and head to the parking lot only to have NO clue WHAT-SO-EVER where my fricken frackin car is!! NONE! No idea at all, good thing I have a green mini-van, cause THOSE aren't common! So then I embark on the mission of trying to find my car. I try the nonchalant approach at first, strolling with purpose down an isle as if I know exactly where I am going. This process is generally complicated by a car following me to get "my spot", so then I have to feign forgetfulness, "OOPS, (looking around frantically) must have left something in the store." It's back to the store to "retrieve" non-existent lost item, and try the car finding ruse once more. This time I try the more distract...
