What a Day, What a Day!

Well my day has barely gotten good and started and Ive cleaned the kitched packed 3 more boxes up all while taking care of my daily routine with the kids! to my dissapointment I had no Coffee creamer! Okay for those of who DONT know I HAVE to HAVE coffee creamer in my coffee or I wont drink it! So a day without coffee is a bad day. Good thing Im planning on not leaving my house! Just feel bad for the kids lol!! Well Dinner last night went GREAT! I had such a blast! It was so nice to talk to someone else who feels the way I do and is going through what I have already gone through. We had yummy burgers and the kids played their hearts out!! About 7 it was time to call it a night so I came home and had NO trouble getting the babies to bed!! LOL! Matter of fact I had to skip the bath because they were all falling asleep on the way home! LoL! So all in all it was a great night for all of us! Definitely gonna do it again soon!

Still no phone call from BigPapa. But thats ok I know he is doing his job. Just pray to the good Lord that he watches over him. I do ok till about 8pm, then its rough. But luckily a few of my girlfriends are online late at night for me to chat with till I cant hold my eyes open. Most of the time I last longer than they do and watch tv for a bit before I go to bed. I think about all the things I need to do and should be doing and blah blah. I do know Im gonan start potty training Bubba. Its not gonna be an easy feat but IM GONNA DO IT!! LoL! Im so tired of diapers. Gotta get Bubba outta pull ups then theres Buttercup left in diapers! JUST ONE MORE!! YAY!!! LoL! And I will be potty training her before the end of the year is out next year!

Well as far as the deployment, its just like I thought it would be. About the same as when he was at Basic.. Just less letter writing (SHAME ON ME) but other than that and Im living on my own this time while hes gone its the same. Just me and the babies most of the time at home and once in a while I see my parents (See my mom ALOT =D) and the in laws and friends. But thats cool! People have their own lives as well as I do! I got one big one that revolves around 4 others lol! I love my babies! All 4! hehe! I definitly know I need to stay busy! Gonna put Sam in Gymnastics! I think she would like that. My mom mentioned something about Karate for Bubba... but I dunno if Im ready to open that can of worms with that kid! Giving him permission to HIT ummm even in a controlled environment i dont know about that! Im gonna keep on truckin!! Look forward to hearing from James and take care of the babies like I promised. He asked me to promise to take care of his babies and work on my weight loss goal (so I will feel better about me) and be here when he gets home and I intend to do ALL three! Some will just take more work than others!! LOL! Well thats all for today Im off to do some more cleaning and packing! Cant wait to get into the house next month!!! WOOOO HOOO!!!! =D

Gotta rant a little!!! Sooooo Some people need to mind their own business.. Especially when they dont care to know anything about what they need to ask about. Sheesh! If I wanted you to know I would tell you. Therefore if I dont tell you, you dont need to know! MAN!! I tell ya. So many people think everything has to revolve around them and it doesnt. YIKES! I feel bad for them when they get a rude awakening. Again deployment = true colors. Dont think that BigPapa isnt watching and listening to what is going on. BigPapa knows who sends him what and writes him and how often. So I get that not everyone can write him or send him stuff all the time (thats my job ;-P) but once a month would be great!You know who ya are. Even if its just a note that says HEY, I love you! Love whoever adress the envelope put a stamp on it and walk your happy butt to the mailbox! (No MIL Im not talking about you, we already talked!) LoL! Course that has NOTHING to do with me its their relationship with BigPapa. I just try to do what makes HIM happy! And LETTERS make him happy right now! Ok done ranting! Think I will leave you all to fester in your thoughts about that! LoL! Have a GREAT rest of the day!
You Call yourself one of his BIGGEST SUPPORTERS!!! Step up and PROVE IT!!!



Another day gone, is another closer to you!

Okay so another day down only 365 to go!! Wow seems like alot when you sit back and you count the days but when you factor in all the things going on between now and then and the goals I would like to reach before the end it doesnt seem that far away! Well at least not till 8pm at night when its just me and the quiet at night. Silence is a blessing but Deafening at the same time. Tonight I have the wonderful pleasure of having dinner with a wonderful woman I met a church and we connected outside of church on Facebook. She is a soldiers wife and a mother of three!! Yeah crazy! Was supposed to meet at the park today but if you guys know me and the park I have a hard time getting there. Course we picked a time my kids NEEDED a nap! Sheesh! They been crazy today! Anyways! BigPapa has gone out on a mission for "a while" he told me so I wont hear from him. I anxiously wait for my phone to ring to hear his loving voice telling me he is ok and we will be ok and he will be home soon! But no calls, not for a while. As an Army wife you begin to learn what the phrase "No News is Good News" means. Because the military wont contact you unless its BAD news. They seem to like to share that more openly than good news. But thats ok. No knock on the door means heaven will be mine again! =D I guess it could be worse. He could be over there with strangers and people he doesnt know well but he isnt. He is with men he has grown with throughout his 3 year military career. Minus one... =( Unfortunatly the "father" figure he had in the military was unable to join on the deployment and i know it hurts them both, but he is over there with his brothers. One of whom he has known for about 7 years. They werent close during the months before they left but they are now, and i am glad of that. I know alot of the other mens wives that are over there and I know they are good people! So not only do I have the Lord watching out for my husband there are many men who are also watching out for him as well. <3 and for that I can rest easy. Anyways thats enough from me. Hope everyone has a wonderful rest of the day!



This is the Beginning, of my Blog!

So I have decided to start a blog to put my feelings out there. Please note that some feelings will be with held till the end of this dreadful deployment. There are some things that my husband just doesnt need to worry about while he is overseas serving our country and protecting our freedom. I am trying very hard to get back onto a routine. It was better for me AND the kids! Not to mention it will come in handy when James comes home. He really enjoyed having the kids in bed at the same time at night so we KNEW we would get some US time! I hope to give him the same when he returns. I have all the typical fears of any wife whos husband is deployed. I AM a woman and I DO think the worst. Ugh I probably shouldnt but there isnt a way to shut my mind off unfortunatly.

I wait for my phone call in the morning or evening or in the middle of the night. I never thought I could be more attatched to my phone but boy that thing is like an extra limb nowadays. I work out with it right next to me, sleep with it right next to me, shower with it right outside the shower, I mean LITERALLY it is RIGHT there ALWAYS! Crazy what the military and being married to the military will do to you!

Other than Big Papa being in the military and being deployed life is going pretty good! bills are paid got money saved up and we are moving into a house in the middle of next month! Hopefully the move will go smoothly but we will see. once I get used to this whole blogging thing I will be able to fixate on one idea as opposed to being all over the place like this blog is. Im sorry Im scatterbrained anyways! Do forgive me. Hopefully the blogs from here on out will run smoother than this one! =D Have a GREAT day!
