WK 10

Well everything is doing fine I guess. I have a Doctors appointment today will be hanging out with D, an then going to the movies with J. So at least it should be fun if hectic. We are about to head into the single digits for the weeks here so I am happy about that. I am hoping that the ARMY takes the earlier end. I always take the other. It's safer. I also sta vague anyways. But, it is getting so close yet still so far. D also is waiting on hers. I have all my shopping done. But thats more because I have no money than because I dont want to buy anything else. next year I will be starting yarn projects early(4 in particluar) to make sure they are done by now. :P Tara I miss you!! Happy Holidays all if I don't get to you! And Blessed Yule!

Wow...another one gone by.

This week has been crazy. Anna had her girlscout induction ceremony on Monday. Then a Stranger course on Tuesday(which didn't put a dent in her "I am gonna talk to everyone" ways) An yesterday we also had an escapee from the school a kindergartener got loose people!!! An he went home! I am sure he wasn't happy after daddy met him at the door how ever. CPS have been visiting people up and down the street. It has been insane. Good thing my house is clean...Thank you

Something "borrowed"...

Got this from Lana




You are The Empress


Beauty, happiness, pleasure, success, luxury, dissipation.


The Empress is associated with Venus, the feminine planet, so it represents,
beauty, charm, pleasure, luxury, and delight. You may be good at home
decorating, art or anything to do with making things beautiful.


The Empress is a creator, be it creation of life, of romance, of art or business. While the Magician is the primal spark, the idea made real, and the High Priestess is the one who gives the idea a form, the Empress is the womb where it gestates and grows till it is ready to be born. This is why her symbol is Venus, goddess of beautiful things as well as love. Even so, the Empress is more Demeter, goddess of abundance, then sensual Venus. She is the giver of Earthly gifts, yet at the same time, she can, in anger withhold, as Demeter did when her daughter, Persephone, was kidnapped. In fury and grief, she kept the Earth barren till her child was returned to her.

SOoooooo Tired....

It is official....... kids have an inate way of hurting themselves, right after you tell them not to do something. I was walking with a friend.... a block into said walk I yell to Anna NOT to touch the telephone poles. And what does she do? Runs her hands down one.

3 Hours in the E.R. They removed 21 full splinters, and so many peices of rosin and wood we may never know. I had to hold her down while a very nice LT had to pick them out. I feel for him. He had to do a very percise procedure with the child screaming in his ear. They did a wonderful job.

But, I am sure she will never touch another telephone pole.....

Hopeing to get her signed up for soccer. Because she actaully wants to play! Wow exercise! And trying to get Kadi registared for Daycare.

Hello all. Another week gone by. I need to go to the dentist. Chances are I am going to need braces. ALL my teeth are shifting, but the front two around my gap. It is really starting to hurt. The girls are doing well. Growing bigger every day it seems. I finished my baby blankets for Grandma and the frg. I just need to mail them. It will get done. I hope. I have begun work on a scarf made from a nice shade called Aran Fleck, that my friend Dea gave me. It is turning out nicely. Was hoping to go home for a visit durign the hotter months. But, now I am gonna be lucky to be able to make to my best friends wedding! I am open to ANY and ALL suggestions about raising money here. Unforunatly I can not afford Daycare. I have been tring to get them enrolled for two months in the free program but it seems to be backed up. I am hoping to get them enrolled by next month then at least I can do 15 hours a month at the comissary or something. *sigh* I am willing to make butterflies, scarfs, and baby blankets for a small fee since I need to mail them. Lol. And Heidi I promise I didn't forget I need your mailing address again so that I can mail your box to you.:P Have fun all...
Just sitting here missing Dave.

Ever had...

Have you ever had that moment when you can't believe what's going on? Have you ever been going through your day completely unaware? I have just had a little reality smack me in the face. People, I don't care what you think of Bush. I just want my soldier back, and in one piece. Send positive energy, pray, do what ever it is YOU do. Help me get them all home safe and sound. Because ANYWHERE over there is dangerous if you have that little American flag on your shoulder. Please, don't forget them.

Just Dragging On

I got a visit from a good friend yesterday that I haven't seen in a long time. Heidi, Joe Purcell says hi. Lol. He brought his wife Elana and his kids. We had fun. They left this morning. I still feel kinda drained. I hate it when I can't seem to be completely happy about something. I am having trouble being happy about anything. I feel it but, not completely. I find things funny, but I can't just feel totally happy. Well, I guess that just comes as part of the territory.

Missing My Dave.....

wk 38


Another week gone. I am so tired. I wish Dave was here. He would know what to do. Or at least be able to help me figure it out. I love him so much. Sometimes I just don't know if I can do this. When I first got here, I found a wounded bird. There was nothing I could do for the poor thing except give it water. It hopped into my lap and drank. I sat very still in the early morning desert air. Listening to the sprinklers. For close to two hours I sat still while the dying creature sat on my crossed legs. Then just as suddenly as I had found her on my porch she stopped moving. I gathered her in my hands, and placed her inside a small box. When the girls woke up, we went on a walk and buried her. We placed a lot of large-ish rocks on top. The three of us sat for a long time an just looked at the mountains around us. And as sad as it was that the poor creature had died. I was happy that she had chosen me. That she had not died alone..... To show me sometimes it is necessary for us all to be reminded that everything has a spirit. Have you had a wounded bird moment? I hope you do.....

I Love You Dave.
