Well....

Hello... To all the people I haven't called yet I am sorry. But, I cant afford it right now. It costs over $20 to call the next town over. Give me a week I will call. Promise!!! Over Christmas weekend Dave is going to take us to his parents house. That's where we will be until he gets back. Well at least that gives me time to get some stuff together. I can finish up my diet while he is gone. My only worry about the girls and I is I still don't drive well. I have to get my license renewed. I learned how to drive in Hinesville , GA. For those of you that have been there you understand. I haven't driven since May. I need to practice. And Dave expects me to drive on the freeway (highway)!!!! I think the I will know all the places the bus goes LOL. Oh well enough complaining , back to making Christmas presents!! Bye.

teehee

Guess what.....

Well, Dave is getting sent to Afghanistan. We don't know for how long yet. But, we will find out soon. I am going up to Santa Rosa to stay near his parents. Thought I would tell somebody. Thought it might make me feel better... It doesn't.

Hello people from a tiny room in the desert...

Hey happy people. Well we are pretty much set up in guest housing now. The front desk fixed our room so my computer works well now. But, I have no USB cable to download new pictures. Sorry. Fort Irwin is in Southern Cali about 30 minutes from Barstow. The nearest town. It really is in the middle of nowhere. But, I like it. It is only a 5 hour drive to his parents house. SO that will be fun at Christmas. Well I got go and decide what to make for dinner bye!

hey people!

OK now we're in guest housing at Irwin. ONly have a few minutes!! Love you all!! Have fun!

Hello !!!

Okay I am at Dave's parents house right now. The drive was actually very fun. I will post pictures when I can down load them. It took us five days to go from Atlanta, GA to Santa Rosa, CA. It was some much fun. Anna and Kadi behaved very well for kids trapped inside a car all day. Kadi cut 5 teeth since we landed in the states to. Well off to have more fun. HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!

Holy Crap I am still up....

Ok leaving tomorrow... Finished packing for the trip .... I think. But, putting the laptop up soon. Will be gone for a little. Have fun!! YEAH!!! We're leaving yippie!

Cleaning Day!!!

I have to go clean today. *sigh* At least we are done painting. We ran out of paint! I have to scrub everything! I am going crazy. Tomorrow we clear housing. FINALLY! Then we have to start getting our stuff together to leave! Just ahhh!!!! Ok I feel a little better. It's the fact that I have to take the girls with me to clean. But, although I babysat all my friends kids. They won't help me at all. I had one at least admit she just didn't want to rather than make up an excuse. I am waiting for kadi's nap time so she will just pass out. And I will see if I can get Anna to help a little. To keep her from getting bored. There is nothing over there now. I am going crazy. Oh well have fun all! Off to work I go!

Hello all!

I believe I may have the prettiest little girls.. Hmm.. Maybe .. LoL. *SMILE*

Here Ya Go!!!

Well here you go here are some finished Projects. And the beginning of a new one! The first one is Anna's new shirt. She loves it. Keeps sneaking it on while I am not paying attention! LoL.










Oh the scrunchies! I am almost out of bandies. I sent the first 20 I made on with hold baggage these are the ones I made in this last week. I am making these for Christmas presents. Thanks for the Idea Heidi!! Love you!








Here is the beginning to my new project. A large Afghan I am doing. This is what the inner squares will look like! I am very excited about this one! Have fun all!

A Really Bad Day......

Ever had a day so bad you want to roll up into a ball and cry yourself to sleep? I have had one. And I can't even talk about it. I am so alone.....

I Figured It Out!

Yeah!! I figured out how to put some photos up. Took me long enough, right. Well the last post is Kadi and Anna. The tiny picture is them with Dave. These are Dave and I. Isn't he so cute. I started and finished a shirt for Anna yesterday. I will post pics of it when we get the film developed and get our scanner back. Around Dec. LoL. I have half a ball of Plum Berry left, a very little ball of Burgundy, and a small ball of Monet. It is not going to last til the 11th. I already have plans for it. We are staying at a friends house right. We have no blankets at the house any more. Had to turn them in! I have to rewash all our clothes they got dumped on the dirty floor at our house. But, that's ok. I don't mind. Took Kadi and got her 12 month shots yesterday. *OUCH!* She's doing alright though. Well off to do laundry. Have fun!

pics

AGAIN!!

Okay they did it again. Now they are actually going to pick us up from the airport. Whether they want to or not. I can't wait to get this over with. Only 12 more days left now. We still have to paint the house ( on the inside). And clear housing and post but, I am not really worried about that. Just a little stressed right now. I can't even have tea now. I have no pots or coffee cups. *cries* I am slowly running out of yarn. I am afraid I won't have any when we go on the long car ride. Kadi, and Anna are doing well. Even though Anna is bored out of her mind. Not much left to do. But, tomorrow is Halloween! The gooey sticky candiness..... ahh crap I can't have any! *sobs* Oh well, at least it will be fun right....

ACK!!!

Okay. Once again plans have been changed!! We meet my parents in Macon. I have no clue what we're doing after that. Besides staying in a motel before we head out. I don't know if we are going home to visit Hinesville before heading off to Cali. At this point I just want to get the trip over with!!! So On Nov 11th guys I will be gone for a while give me a week or so to find a decent internet connection ok. I just wish I knew what was going on. It would make me feel much better. Kadi already downed a jar of peach cobbler this morning. She is watching TV with a bottle of water right now. I have to go get MORE baby food today. . Hold baggage goes today. Then all we have to get ready for is the trip. I am trying to keep it down to two bags. I really don't think we can. I have a feeling I will be throwing stuff away when we get there. And at that point I will not be a happy camper! I am so mad right now I can't see straight! I can't find any of the paperwork from the big move!! Okay, breathe.... I hope it is in the car.
Anna was the BIGGEST brat last night. I am not going in to it. But, we had fun at kid zone before we got home. Kadi even got to play on the playground! It was great Well on that happy note... Off I go!

Morning, Morning, Morning!

Well, this morning is all good so far. Kadi Had a jar of blueberry buckle for breakfast. Along with some cheerio's. She is down for her morning nap. So far she still isn't drinking out of her cup but, she drinks about 5 -nine ounce bottles a day! At least she is well hydrated. I started giving her bay vitamins this morning. Anna is going stir crazy because there are so few toys. (about 6) And I only kept out a few of her videos. I only let her watch one or two movies a day. And blues clues, and Cailluo. I need to find some veggie tales DVD's she loves Larry. I will do that when we get home. Which now we will be doing. Before we were going to leave straight from Atlanta, now we will be leaving from Hinesville. I can't wait to see everyone. Well I am off to finish up the final layer on my candy corn jello!! Have fun all!!

Day 2.....

Once again we will be trying to get Kadi off the bottle. Yesterday. I finally got her down to just water in it. But, she still wouldn't even try her cup. She also went from 3 jars of food to 6! So at least she isn't going to have any health assuages over it or loose weight. It's 6:30 AM. This is when she usually has her first bottle of the day. It is now going to be replaced with breakfast. I need to start Anna getting up early soon to. I just can't seem to get the sleep out of my eyes though. Also I have no coffee. We have to work on getting rid of stuff. I use splenda (NO SUGAR) in my coffee and the only way they sell It here is in one pound bags. So I can't get any more until AFTER we leave. I think I am getting caffeine tweaks. They come and get the last of our stuff Friday. Which means we will have no blankets left. Two pillows, and a rather large overstuffed Tigger left over for bedding. We hope to sleep at some else's house when that happens. I am making Jello candy corn cups for the Unit Halloween party, which is also this Friday. I need to quit stalling and get them done. And all the cheerio bars I was volunteered to make. At least someone will eat them then. This morning will be Dutch apple dessert for Kadi, and Breakfast burritos for everyone else. ( got eggs to get rid of) Well off to down about a liter of water and see if it wakes me up. Love ya! Have fun!

What A Day!

Today was an OKAY day. I guess. The 3 hours I got to spend with some friends helped out a lot. I am going to take the girls to the Playground in a little while. As soon as I get my brain straight. My main trouble today. Kadi. She is 12 months old. I can't get her to take a cup. No matter what I do she won't even try it! It's driving me nuts! ARGH! And if I hear one more Doctor say it shouldn't be that hard I am going to scream. You know these people don't have kids right. Well almost all our stuff for the trip is packed. I am trying to keep it down to as little as possible. At least I don't have much to clean. LoL. Okay enough complaining. I had a wonderful time at my friends Trish's house. She, Leilani, Jennifer, and I just sat and talked. We let the kids play and swapped stories forever. It was great I hope we can do it again before I leave I don't think I am ever going to see them again after. Which makes me very sad. Well, off to work I go. Love ya. Have fun!

Scrunchies Everywhere!

Good morning all. This morning I have been packing. Whittling down the piles and piles of clothes around the house. Almost completely done with that now. Yeah!! We leave on the 11th! Yippie! I have made 12 Scrunchies since Heidi gave me the idea. I like them because I don't need a pattern! I am just making stuff up. Well at least I will have Christmas presents to give out this year. LOL. Off to make breakfast I go. Have fun!

ALL THE STUFF IS GONE!!!!

Well they came and got our stuff Wednesday. The house is achingly empty. Anna and Kadi love it. We hope to go to Lusizenne Park tomorrow. As long as it's nice. I have made 10 scrunchies. I am going to finish all the little hair bands I bought. Well, I am getting sleepy and I have to get up early tomorrow.

*YAWN*

Well they changed the pickup date to the 19th but that's ok with me. It is all going pretty smoothly though. I have a head cold. I am pretty sure everybody here has one. We're cleaning junk for pick up now. Almost done. And the glory of ziplock bags man. Almost everything little in our household goods is sorted with them. I have organized my jewelry with them The only thing I am upset about right now is I can't stop by Hinesville before we head to Cali. We won't be able to. Got to get there as fast as possible. That sucks I wanted to see everybody. Just have to wait until next time. His parents haven't seen Anna since she was 3 months, and they have never seen Kadi. SO they get priority. I am starting on some scrunchies tonight. I got the idea from my friend Heidi. I am going to start on them after I finish the laundry. Urgh. Well Gotta go see ya!

Living Among The Boxes

There are more than 10 boxes in each room of our apartment now. We have a moving inspection tomorrow and I am not even close to having the house clean enough for inspectors to come and look at all this junk. Dave is at work and they won't let him come help me. The girls are being decent today, but they can't really do anything because of all the boxes! I still have to go through all their toys to see which ones are going to be shipped and which ones to give away!! AHHHH! Okay I feel a little better. Gotta go get back to work!!!

I Hate Strepp Throat

Ever wake up in the morning with a throat that feel full of sand? Well I got one this morning. I am slowly getting even more junk together. I didn't realize how much stuff we had. Kadi's birthday was pretty fun. Have to head on over to the WIC office today get transfer papers going. I am going to take the girls out to lunch to. Hope they eat well today. I also hope the EXCEDRIN kicks in soon. I feel all blurry and stuff. I have been crocheting butterflies lately just cus I can. They're so cute! I wish the girls would give me like 10 spare minutes but that's not to be. Well see you later!

It's Kadi's Birthday!

Good morning. I have to get completely awake so I can start breakfast. I haven't decided what I am making yet though. I made Kadi a safari cake. I hope she likes it. We haven't gotten her a present yet though. Waiting until we get home for that. We got a whole lot done this week end. Over 10 boxes have been filled. LOL. We ran out of boxes. Self help isn't open until Thursday so no more packing for me until then I guess. Well off to clean and cook. Bye.

And Off We Go Again

Morning all. We got 7 boxes packed yesterday. Yeah! We're trying to get as many as possible done before the movers get here. And at this rate we may be done! We are slowly working our way through the storage room now. I didn't realize how much junk we have. Oh well going to make some coffee and start shifting more crap!!! Bye.

A Late Wake Up

Dave is home today. Training holiday. That is the army's way of giving the soldiers four day weekends. So today we can get a lot more done. I hope. We still have to go through the storage room that's up here and the one downstairs. I have a buttload of laundry left to do and Dave still isn't up yet. That sounds normal. Well I hope I can get stuff done today. Hope everyone is having a good time with everything they have to do as well. Blessings!

Here We Go

Morning.... Yawn. Still need some coffee. I have so much crap to do it isn't even funny! We have to get the computers moved to our bed room so they don't get taken until hold baggage on the 28th and not on the 19th. I have to go through the kids toys and pick out what to take with us. I have got to call my friend today and ask her to baby sit. So I don't have munchkins under foot. I have to pick out the yarn I am taking with me. Have to go through the medicine and pick out what I am going to take for the kids. And the DVD's which ones I think the kids would enjoy on the car trip. We're taking my laptop so at least can write on the way there. Dave has a butt load of magazines that I have to go through and throw out half of them, at least. Does anyone really need a stuff magazine that doesn't even have anyone cute in it that is, wait for it, 5 years old! AAAHHH!!! I am supposed to pick out 2 books to take with me. Just so overwhelming. I have to do like 5 loads of laundry today. All I got Dave to do last night was clear the floor in our bedroom...Which I did most of. And I got him to bag the trash. Which is still in the kitchen. He has headcount today, which means he won't be home until after 7! Well got to get to work!!

All done

I am finally done scanning all those pictures. We have over a 1,000! That is ridiculous. We have an appointment with transportation today. That means they will tell exactly what day they will come and get our junk. I am slowly going crazy. I hate it here. I just.... Can't stand it much more. I need some more scream time. I need to just explode. Just once. Haven't been to a REAL concert in 6 years! I haven't performed in over 6. I know I sound so selfish. Sometimes I wonder if it is just time to give up.

Vent

We went to the park in Heidleburg yesterday. Dave had to go help his unit with some stuff. The movers are coming on the 15th and we haven't gotten anything ready. The stress is starting to pile now. I have almost al the pictures done. One more box of them and I am all done. We don't have anything sorted yet. And we have to sort everything into either hold baggage or household. Dave won't help. And the kids won't let me. Anna is watching and video right now and Kadi is taking a nap. I just felt like venting before I explode. I am going to play some music loud today and start sorting. I have to call babysitters for moving day now. I already had my coffee and I can still feel that migraine coming on. Wonder what is going to happen now. Nothing feels right. I want to sing...

Head ache relief

Went out for about 3 hours last night and hopped around the rock room at the cove. Feel a little bit better. Screaming as loud as I can makes some of the pain goes away. The pressure released a little. I am almost through scanning pictures. We still have to go through all this crap to see what we are taking with us. The movers will be here on the 15th. I don't think we're going to be done in time. The kids are driving me nuts. Don't know if I can handle everything that I have to right now. Getting everything straight is just so hard. And I seem to be doing it all by myself. Well, got to go now.

Hello

Well today is going ok....So far. Except I think Kadi has a sinus infection. She won't eat anything because she can't smell. I am almost done with picture scanning. Yeah!!! I have the house as clean as I can get it around all these boxes. I have over 15 granny squares for my hippie quilt. SO far so good you know. Anna is doing good today. No fits, but it is early in the day. We get to go to transportation today. Well got to get everything together again. Bye.

A Little Late

Hey everybody. Kadi had a Dr Appointment today. She had ezema on her foot. Which sucks, but the Dr said it will go away. Still scanning pictures. I filled up a box that holds 600 picture already. I don't think I am ever going to be done! We leave here on the 11th of November. Yeah!!! We will be going across country in the car. It sounds like fun. But, lots of things sound like fun, and then turn out badly. I am also a pessimist though. Learned to be that way, through lots of disappointments. Going to transportation tomorrow. Hopefully we will be able to get the movers in here. I am so excited about getting to Cali though. Dave and I we be able to go to the restaurant we went to on our first anniversary. Dave we get to spend Christmas with his family. Anna, and Kadi will get to meet their grandparents. I can't wait to get out of here!!!

Scan, scan, scan

Morning. I know it's later than normal. I have been doing some high speed house work. Right now I am in the middle of scanning more pictures. I have hit 350 now. Goodness we have a lot of photos!! I got the dishes and laundry done already. I am hoping to get the photos done today. Wish me luck!!

Time For More Dishes!!

Hey. So I just finished making biscuits. I also folded laundry for about 2 hours. Today I am going to finish gathering all the pictures I need to scan. Started my new crochet project. Would take a picture but the digital is still giving me a hard time. I have about 10 assorted granny squares so far, made with scraps. I am going to stitch them together we I have enough, like a big yarn quilt. Have to go through shoes today and pack some of Anna's old ones up for Kadi lather. Dave hopes to get his orders squared away today so we can start getting our household goods outta here. We have to paint the house because Anna colored her whole room. It looks kinda like Starry Nights in there. Well, got to go get the dishes done now. Bye.

There's a Party Today

Anna's friend has a party today. We're slowly getting ready. I finished my ugly blanket. It's a medium sized throw. I am started making lots of little granny squares to connect together later. I am going to make a big mismatched afghan! Still doing stuff to get ready for the movers. Someday I might be done.... Maybe. Well got to go get stuff done!!

A Morning

Feel,like crap today. I am on the verge of a nervous breakdown. I don't know how much longer I can take this. I don't know if I even like being a mommy any any more. The kids are driving me nuts. I feel like I am trapped in Heck half the time. Wishing I could just pick up and leave for a couple of days like I used to. But, can't do that anymore. I refuse to dress any different than I always have. No one to impress but, Dave. And he happens to like the way I dress. But, I had to change and be some else. I don't have enough time to paint or play. My music has been almost completely cut off. Just wish I could get a break. We are trying to save up for a two week break next August after Anna's b-day. Have a honey moon. We didn't have one when we got married. Couldn't afford a wedding, so a honey moon was kind out of the question. We are going to Disney world. I think it will be fun. I'm trying to concentrate on stuff I like . It makes me feel better. Well got to go pay bills today.

Oprah's On...

It's a little later than usual. I made pancakes for breakfast today. They were great. Had to do an enormous amount of dishes this morning. My blanket is actually looks like a blanket! I can't wait to see what it looks like when it was done. I have to sort through some more books today and write their titles down. Feeling like there is so much I have to do. And I can't seem to get started lately. Yesterday was a great break, but I got get back in gear. Well off to work I go....Have fun!!

I'm Back

Hello again. We had lots of fun today. Anna loved the helicopters. Kadi liked the French fries. My feet hurt, but that's ok. I finished about 7 more rings on my really ugly blanket that I am crocheting right now. Will post pics of it when I can get my digital camera to work again. Still trying to figure the little sucker out. Well off to do some laundry...

early....

hello again. Had to get up super early today. Going somewhere with Dave. Land combat expo thingy. I am making coffee right now. Kadi is working on pulling all the clean clothes off the chair in the living room and Anna won't wake up!!! I am going nuts here. Well gotta go. Gonna see if I can get everybody ready in time! Bye.....

Good morning!!

Sorry all. All I have to write about is what has happened in the past few weeks. I have to write EARLY in the morning before the kids get up. We are getting the house together before the big move. We are in Germany right now. Going to Cali next. I am working on scanning ALL our pictures right now. Never knew we had so many. I have so many hobbies they all kinda run together....music, art, reading, crocheting, soap making, candle making,...The list goes on and on. I am going to start looking in to knitting soon. I think I might like it. I am idle a lot thinking about what I need to do. I just feel buried under all of what I need to do. But, when I get going NOTHING stops me. So I have to go start my day. Today is for going through the storage room. TOSS TOSS!!! To the thrift store and church it goes!!! Woo whoo!! i need coffee...
