Good morning all! Shaun has a doctor's appointment in Iowa City...just an annual visit but it's about a 2 hour drive so we're dropping Sydney off this morning at my folks and then taking Shaun with us. Going to try to stop at the post office and get the passport forms for Shaun before we go. October and Cozumel will be here before we know it.

I didn't get to yesterday's O so I'll need to go catch up on what's happening to everyone!

Special Happy Birthday wishes to Sally and Cyn!!!

It's Friday! I just finished mowing the lawn. I mowed until I couldn't see where I'd been anymore last night. This morning there were little strips that I missed :)
Sandra - so sorry to hear about your home town! It reminds me of learning about the Peshtigo fire when I was in fourth grade.
Linda W - have fun with your mom today! I sometimes wish that mine lived closer, but I've got a GREAT mil that I get to spend a lot of time with.
LindaS - hope the appointment and the drive go well.
Dawn - hope your tummy feels better very soon!

Ok it's my last Friday of freedom, I'm out of here :)

Hello! Hello!

That stinks that some of you guys have filters on your work computer systems. I do too, but I found a way around mine. Our filters are set up for IE instead of the whole system so I just downloaded Firefox and I can do anything I want. It is unreal to me that they would have such an easy to get around censoring program but I'm not complaining. I get to do what I want.

Life is good today. We got free coffee today, we're getting free lunch and somebody brought in bagels. Yummy!! I of course missed breakfast so it all worked out awesome for me. Yay!! I love it when that happens.

So, we have no real plans for this weekend. DH is on call at the civilian hospital this weekend which means a cranky husband but extra money. So, no complaints from me. We bought our house based on that income so he doesn't complain too much about it either. I was perfectly content not owning a house but he really wanted to buy so that's what we did. It isn't really so bad. The work isn't hard, it is just time consuming so he can't play. It is nice though because he gets to keep up his Nuclear Medicine skills since he works in MRI for the military now. I'm sure I will find ways to entertain me and the kids this weekend without him. I always do.

Last night was great. I had small group, which is always fun, although I have decided i have to break up with them. I need to branch out and meet more people to be more successful at my new ministry in the church (Helping Hands) and so I need to broaden my knowledge of the people in the church. i love my group though, so this was not an easy choice for me. I think we will all stay close though. We have had a very trying year between all of us and even if we were to grow apart I think we will all stay close in some way. But change is so hard for me, but always so good for me. Why is that?? Some change I think is exciting though. i am almost hoping that eventually the Army moves us. Granted, most of the places we would get moved to would stink, but it is all good. Andrea, I have a plan...we can get orders at the same time as you (although hopefully we won't be going to Ft. Bragg), then you could get orders to Ft. Lewis and rent our house and we would move to someplace else. How cool would that be?? (okay so really it would just work for me and Chris is not here so the world revolves around me right now, although I think we came to the conclusion that she gets daylight savings time and I get the other half of the year or something like that, LOL).

Okay, so I have been so random for the past few days...here, in e-mails to other people and just in general. I forgot where I was going with my gabbing about last night...so anyway, after my group I got home and dh was smoking the salmon he caught last weekend. It is sooooooo yummy. But he was up late and we just hung out and watched a movie. We haven't really just sat together in a long time. he always watches stuff on tv that I think is stupid, so I play on my computer and he gets all annoyed, but I don't want to watch Survivorman or whatever other dh type show he has on. So we watched The Soloist, which I had already watched but was willing to watch again to hang out with dh. I went to bed later than I had planned but it was worth it. I think we get so busy being mommy and daddy that we forget to be husband and wife sometimes. So, it is nice to remember sometimes.

So, that is my world. Well, I said I would come back for personals yesterday and I never did so I'll do today and yesterday now...

Yesterday...

Dawn - I definately think going back to school is a great plan. I have no desire to go back to school ever again...BUT if I did have something I wanted to do, I hope I would have the motivation, determination and courage to go for it. If you think that is what you want to do, I say do it. Just make sure you do plenty of research first to make sure you will be able to do what you want. I know in the counseling sector, a Master's degree goes a lot further. I think there are programs that are Master's programs that speed thinsg up a little bit. That is so awesome though. Of course I'm all about plugging x-ray. 2 years and you have a degree (only an Associate's but that's all you need) and are elligible to get certified. I love love love my job, even if I didn't have my cushy job and worked at the hospital I love it.

Andrea - I'm glad you are starting to feel closer to normal again. that is such a hard transition that so many women have had to go through, unfortunately. I'm sure you and hubby will figure out what is best for you and your family. That is too funny about dh and the trying during R&R. Do you know when he'll have it?? How long until he gets deployed? We have a couple of brigades leaving this month and next. Ethan's friend Cristian will be moving away to live with his dad while his mom gets deployed. It is so hard to see all these families having to readjust for deployment and I think you guys are amazing that make it work. I'll be praying for your dh. What is his name? DS and I pray for all the deployed soldiers and their familes every night along with specific names of people we know. I have a friend who is in Iraq as a civilian right now, and even though she makes decent money it isn't all that much easier for her. I'll be thinking about you guys.

Kat - how did the meeting go? I'll bet things are going to go really well. Schools seem to be set up really well for alleergies anymore. I don't know the details of last year but I hope thinsg go flawlessly for you this year so that you can just think about your baby boy starting school and not his safety. Big hugs for you!! that sucks about the ants. We had ants a few months ago. We used bait and it worked pretty well. I put so much of it out. I bought 3-4 packs of 4 and placed them all over my kitchen where we were seeing them. It kept up for about a week and then they started drastically declining and then we sprayed. The other big thing we did was spray in the crawlspace under the house. That helped a lot too. Good luck with it. I hate having ants.

Sally - You are just so busy all the time. It is amazing. I don't know how you keep up but it is awesome that you do. And you seem so relaxed about it. I loved that youwere sitting in your car at football practice playing on your computer. Might as well. I hope that when my kids start having stuff all over the place that I keep up and don't bog them down not being able to keep up with their activities. Go Sally Go!!

LindaW - Yay for getting your hair done. I'm glad you found some time to do something for you. I hope that baby comes soon. I know you and dd are ready whenever baby is. Ihope things go smoothly when the day arrives.

Sandra - Don't you just love the sound of fighting children?? LOL!! That was the thing I hated about watching my friend's kid. Hima nd Ethan fought non-stop. Addie isn't quite to fighting with Ethan yet, although I think I may be blessed with it not being too bad because of the age difference and stuff. We'll see though. I'm glad you were able to get in some hours at work. That is so sad about your hometown. I hope they are able to pull together and get back on track without too much suffering.

LindaP- That is awesome about your challenge. I'm glad your team won. Very cool. That is kinda funny about the mowing. I hope you didn't wake up this morning with weird crazy designs in your yard.

I think that is all from yesterday.

I just had to share this...I meant to this morning....

I am not sure how your MG's react to your scrapping....mine...well he doesn't complain, and I show him a lot of my pages and being a typical man...he just looks, nods, and says that's nice...and he's gotten lately where he looks, nods and says "baby...they all kind of look the same to me...but it is nice" UGHHH....anyway....I made a second page for the spotllight on Vicki....it was about how he and I met....here it is if you want to take a peek.. https://ozone.oscraps.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=109667&cat=500&ppuser=21372.....after dinner last night I showed it to him and he read it....HE SMILED and we had a little "remeber the past" session....and then he said "I really like that baby. At least that D#!M place did something good in my life"

~~~sniff~~~

And on to today...

LindaW - Yay for getting the date right today. Have fun at your mom's. I think it is okay if you haven't been a great daughter lately since you have been busy being a great grandma.mom instead. I'll bet your mom loves to see you enjoying being a grandma so much. At least I hope she does.

Dawn - I hope your tummy feels better. I hate working when I don't feel great but you have to do what you have to do. I was talking to my sis about that the other day how she gets to take off for being a little sick but I have to work through those days so that I have the days off when my kiddos are sick. Blah!!

LindaS - I hope everything goes great with the doctor. how come you have to go so far away? Yay for passport forms. I have Ethan's all ready, but I have to take it to wherever I am supposed to take it with DH to turn it in. So, I need to get that coordinated before it comes up too fast.

Sara - yay for no filters. I hope you get everything done today that you need to get done.

LindaP - School is sure coming up quick for you. Enjoy your last few days off.

Hello ladies! Clara, you're awesome, thanks for your prayers!
LindaW, love your new avatar!!

I just wanted to pop in and say... we got a new kitty! I know what you're thinking, and I guess you're right. Hubby will be gone by this time next week in Afghanistan, and my miscarriage... and I ran out and got a cat. But... well... yeah. We got a cat! A big, fat adult cat. Her name at the shelter was Sacha, but I've renamed her Gravy, because the girl obviously loves to eat. LOLOL.

I'll pop back in over the weekend to do more normal dailies. But for now I just wanted to tell you the news.

Have a grrrreat day!

Andrea - I think getting a cat is a perfectly healthy way to deal so I say yay for you and how exciting to have a new family member. Cats are the best...they use the bathroom in one place, you can leave them unattended, and they are just good pets, I think. I love my cat. Good for you!!
