I did one of these a LONG time ago, and I kind of wanted to make another one. Feel free to snag it and put in your own answers.

Rules are simple. Open your preferred listening device, (Windows Media Player, iTunes, iPod, MP3 Player, ect.) Set it to ALL of the music in the library, (this makes it more interesting.) Make sure it's on Shuffle. Hit play. Insert the answer for each one, hitting next for each track of your life. Make sure to use the first song it gives you. Sometimes you get some rather funny answers.

01. Your Birth: Hey You - Pink Floyd
02. First Steps: You Set Me Free - Michelle Branch
03. First Day of School: Luck - Fuel
04. First Friend: Thnks Fr Th Mmrs - Fall Out Boy

If you had the chance to go crazy and completely overhaul your appearance, what would you do?

Or:

Recount a remarkable incident involving insects.

Hmmm makeover, eh? I'd definitely lose some weight. Maybe dye my hair some crazy color. Is purple a crazy color? I'd probably spike my hair too. Pierce my ears a couple more times. Probably pierce my tongue too. Maybe like 4 more tattoos, but I plan on getting those anyways lol. I'd go into the whole sexy goth type look. Fishnet everywhere, maybe some knee high boots. A cute short, tight skirt. Trenchcoat jacket. Mmmmm. ^_^ I wonder how many people would walk across the street to avoid walking next to me?

It just keeps getting better.

Well, Daniel's birthday party was kind of disappointing, but he had fun, and a couple people actually showed up. The one's that didn't had to either work, or we never could get ahold of them to tell them what time, so yeah... Daniel really enjoyed playing with Cloe and Austin though. Maybe we can do a sleepover with Austin for him soon, considering school is almost out. For Daniel and Blake, it's actually getting out today. Yay!

I got a nifty manilla envelope from Daniel's teacher yesterday. She sent home all of Daniel's projects for the year. They've been super busy it seems. I'm just glad he had fun. It's so nice during the time period when kids still love school. He is happy to do his homework and schoolwork, so it's a nice change of pace from kids who want to argue about doing their homework. Not particularly looking forward to that time period. Hopefully I can keep him loving school. Wish me luck? lol

Daniel also decided to find a spray bottle I was steralizing the trash can with that was 1/2 bleach, 11/2 water. He sprayed it all over Blakes pants, (which are now ruined), and the carpet. We're the first people to live here and the carpet is beige, so as you can imagine, I was freaking out. So I shampooed as much of the bleach up as possible, and then after calling Toria and my mom to help me calm down, I sat down and looked online for a way to fix the carpet. After what Picerne had charged Jannae and Jim over a "pet oder" I was understandably panicking.

One of the comments on an article suggested that if you have renter's insurance to call them up and see about how much it would cost through them to replace it. I think this is when the lightbulb in my head lit up, because I have had USAA renter's insurance for over 3 years now. So I called them up, after a few switches to the wrong person, they finally get me to claims, and the claims guy says that yes, they do cover replacing the carpet for accidental damages. I nervously asked what the deductible was going to be, and apparently, because I am renting, and it falls under my liability, since the carpet isn't mine, there is no deductible.... Which is pretty awesome. So now I finally calmed down, the claims guy told me he was gonna have a claims adjuster call me today to setup a time to come look at the carpet and figure out how much needs replaced.

So I call Matt, and tell him not to freak out when he walks through the front door, because everything is already being taken care of, and it's not costing us anything. He was rather calm and actually told me it wasn't as bad as I had made it out to be. So yeah, crisis averted there. lol

My alarm didn't go off this morning, so I wasn't awake at 6:30 like I normally am. Luckily the boys woke up at 7, otherwise they would have missed the last day of school. I got them dressed in the usual quick 5 minutes, wrote some notes for the teachers and then we waited like 10 minutes for the buses. I'm pretty sure they don't understand what the word "summer" means. They are probably gonna be disappointed about no school tomorrow, but I'll make it up by letting them play outside and maybe do some coloring at the table.

I just realized my excedrin is kicking in too, because my migraine is dissapating. Hooray! Now onto cleaning. Boooooo!

Insomnia and other fun

  • May. 12th, 2008 at 7:46 AM

So yeah, had insomnia pretty bad the last few weeks. Been kind of depressed and avoiding the world as well. There's been like one friend I've been willingly talking to and that's it. They have been my grip on sanity the last week. I guess they've always been my safe haven for the last 8-9 years or so, and for that I am immensely grateful. Everyone else, I'm sorry if I have been avoiding you, I just haven't been all that talkative. It's like, I'm depressed, I don't know who I am anymore, and I'm trying to figure that out.

I'm tired of people making me out to be the bad guy, I'm tired of being walked on. I'm just plain tired. I have friends that I help and help, and they promise they'll "pay me back", but I'm not seeing it happen. I don't think it will happen. Frankly, I'm tired of it. A lot my friends want to complain about how broke they are to me. I don't want to hear it. Most of them don't have kids. I'm sorry guys, it's just been making me feel even more depressed. What a lot of you see as broke is less than $500 in your bank account. OMG I wish I had that leftover after I paid bills. I have let's see.... $20 in the bank account roughly. Including savings. I scrimped and spent 14 on groceries last week. I only bought meats and I have been stretching that with rice and frozen vegetables between 6 people for the last week. I need to get some more groceries, but that $20 has to go to gas, so Matt can get back and forth to work. So yeah, I don't want to hear about your financial woes. I'm sorry, but I can't handle your stuff too right now. Also, please don't try to offer me a loan. That just makes me feel even more like shit. We've survived times like this before, we'll survive them again. I feed the kids, that's all that matters to me. Again, I'm sorry, but I am trying to be straightforward with you guys.

I have been doing a lot of thinking. Like I said, I'm trying to figure out who I am lately. I used to be the friend who did everything I could to help people out, even if I barely knew them, because I wanted to desperately believe that I could fix the world. My mother used to tell me I couldn't. She'd tell me "You can't save everyone." It used to piss me off. I used to think, "Why not? Why can't I save everyone? Shouldn't I at least try to save everyone?" I guess I didn't know what she meant at the time or why she'd look so sad whenever she said it. I know now. She had been there. She had tried herself. You want to believe the world can be saved, because frankly, it's hard to believe that it can't be. You want to believe that people aren't cruel and out to take advantage of everyone. You want to believe there's some good in everyone. Then you wake up. You open your eyes and look around you. You realize people ARE cruel. People ARE mean and going to take advantage of you. Unfortunately that is the way of the world.

So what do I do? Do I continue to try and save as many as I can? That lifestyle has left me rather weary. Do I become like the world, and only care about myself? I'd rather hope not. Is there a middle ground? I want to be a good friend, and help when I can, but I also want the power to say no. I want to be able to go, "I'm sorry, I just don't have the time" and for friends to be ok with that. Or "I'm sorry I just don't feel like it." and for them to be ok with that too. Why is it I feel the need to have an excuse besides saying I don't feel up to it?

It's gonna be one of those long thoughtful days when my mind just lets everything speed around and thoughts run into one another, and never let me quite grasp the thread long enough to form a coherent sentence.

I've got to get Claudia to her checkup today, but other than that, I'll be home if anyone feels up to talking. I know I've sort of been avoiding everyone, but it's not like I haven't been online...

Catch-phrase
Ok, well last night I was talking to Matt and he told me to go to bed and try and get some sleep. When I told him that I couldn't lately because I cough so bad I can't sleep, he suggested I take some Tylenol PM. Normally, I don't take it at all when he's not going to be home with me all night, but I took his suggestion, and took some Tylenol PM. Spent like an hour or so violently coughing, before I finally passed out.

This morning the alarm went off and I apparently shut it off in my sleep. Don't recall it going off at all, but I must have shut it off, because it's always on. So I woke up rather late at 7:10. My first thought is "Fuck! The kids are gonna miss their bus." So I wrestle with the, should I let them sleep or should I "attempt" to get them ready in under 5 minutes? I went with attempting to get them ready. Took like 3 minutes just to get them out of bed. I got them dressed in like super speed. Less than 2 minutes. Not bad if I do say so myself. One problem? They can't find their shoes. So I tell Daniel to watch for the bus as I ravage their room trying to find their shoes. Daniel yells to me that Blake's bus is here, and I'm still missing one of his shoes, so I run downstairs quickly and tell the bus driver I am trying to find his shoe, she says ok, so I run back upstairs. There it is, under the bed. So run back downstairs, and quickly help him get his shoes on and hand him his backpack and place him on the bus. By this time, Daniel has finally gotten his shoes on, and so we go outside to wait for his bus, which shoes up like 2-3 minutes later. *phew* I hate having my kids miss a day of school if they don't have a valid reason. Granted, "I missed the bus" is a valid reason, Blake's bus runs all the way out here JUST for him, so it's kind of expensive on the gas for the bus driver to come out here and him not be going to school. On days that he is sick, I merely call in at 6am to tell them he won't be coming in that day to save them the trip out here.

Anyways, I come back inside, and feed Vincent some pop tarts. A not very nutritious breakfast, I know, but I am tired. Stop looking at me like that! Pop tarts are ok from time to time... I sit down to catch my breathe at my desk. By now, I'm worn out. I've been sick all week with the coughing and hacking. So I catch up on my web comics real quick, and then I hear Claudia on the baby monitor. So, I go upstairs and change her and get her dressed, and do the same for Vincent. On the way back downstairs I stumble over my shoes that Vincent has been wearing around the house and conveniently left at the base of the stairs. Manage to not fall but I feel like I've pulled my hip out of place. I put Claudia in the play pen so she can play for a bit in there, I sit down at my desk, and the nose piece falls off my glasses.

WTF? I would tempt fate by saying this morning can't get any worse, but I'm sure it can. Oh wait it just did. My period started. Not like you wanted to know that, but I'm sure most of you didn't even get that far down into my post anyways. Now I get to clean house because Vincent has a session with both his behavior therapist and a speech therapist today at 10. I'm gonna take some Ibuprofen, down another dose of cough medicine, and get to work. Wish me luck.

Horoscope Mumbo Jumbo

  • May. 1st, 2008 at 10:36 AM
Pokémon
Wow. Ok, let me first say that I for one, have never believed in Horoscopes. I was bored earlier and clicked on a Horoscope thing just out of curiosity. This is what I ended up with:

Several Turns of Direction
Leo May Horoscope

There's a major cosmic shuffle this month as four planets change directions. Serious Saturn turns direct on May 2, giving structure to plans that have been floating in the background for almost six months. This forward turn in your 2nd House of Resources gets financial matters moving ahead. Philosophical Jupiter, though, begins a four-month retrograde cycle in your 6th House of Work and Habits on May 9. This is a good opportunity to bring your skills up to date or to review personal and professional systems to make them more efficient. Mercury and Neptune both turn retrograde on May 26. The messenger planet’s 24-day reverse period often produces problems with data, details and technology. Spacey Neptune's backward turn in your 7th House of Partners is very subtle, but suggests that your greatest sources of inspiration for the next five months can be found within yourself.

Key Dates in May for Leo:

SUPER NOVA DAY
May 9: Heart of a Lion
Mars the Warrior strides into your sign to amplify your power and boost your confidence. This is a good time to start projects, especially those requiring physical energy. Participating in sports, dance, yoga, and outdoor activities can improve your fitness level considerably. Your strong personality takes on another degree of intensity, motivating yourself and others to perform at the highest level. You're wearing your heart on your sleeve now, and there's no hiding your intentions. This direct approach encourages people to trust you, although there is a risk that some will find you overbearing.

May 12-14: A Peek into the Future
The Sun forms productive aspects with visionary Jupiter and inventive Uranus on May 12, kicking your intuition into high gear. You have a knack for sensing what’s coming next, especially related to work and career issues. A cranky sesquisquare between Venus and Pluto on May 13, though, points out where resources are lacking and can attract distrustful people who may be disinclined to share your optimism. The Sun's square with idealistic Neptune on May 14 feeds your imagination, which can supply you with creative answers or allow you to escape into your own fantasy world.

Keep in Mind this Month: Take the risk to follow your passion instead of spending your time putting out fires or passively waiting for opportunities to arise.



Hmmm wow. That is either OMG I need to start believing this crap, or the most coincidental one I have ever had. As an update on what went on yesterday night, I signed up as a volunteer for the battery's FRG. For those of you non military, a battery is the group of people my husband works with, and an FRG is the Family Readiness Group that helps keep the families in the know how before, during, and after deployments. It's also a great way to make friends with some of the other wives. For those of you that know me, I'm usually antisocial, and I also don't ever volunteer for things that are gonna make me "have" to talk to other people. Particularly not other military wives. I honestly enjoyed myself last night at the FRG meeting. I enjoyed talking with the Battery Commander's wife. I mainly just enjoyed being myself for once. No sugar coating it. No being withdrawn. Just being me.

I woke up this morning, fed the kids, and I cleaned the living room, and shampooed the carpet. I am having a party this weekend, (another thing unusual for me), and I want to have the house clean because my party starts Friday night, and doesn't end until Sunday. We will have tons of games, and some drinking. I think I want to pick up some multi player board games too. No strip poker though, there'll be too many kids around for that lol. Let's see, there will be 8 adults, and 7 kids at my house this weekend. Gonna be a bit packed, but it should be lots of fun. I am thinking of setting the garage up into a playroom for this weekend with a TV in it for the kids to all watch movies. That way they have a nice big room to goof off in.

I'm also gonna head to the gym tonight. I think I will start going at least 3 times a week to start out, or maybe I'll just go for at least 30 minutes every night to get some exercise. I need to lose some weight and I am not gonna do it sitting around the house all day. Things really need to change around here. It'll be for the better in the long run. I hope. I made a promise to Matt that I will no longer call myself fat anymore. I know he really hates when I do that, so I shall finally stop and just be happy with myself.

Oh, and I have a marriage retreat the 16-18th of this month, so I will not be home then. If you need me, you'll have to call me.

The results say: Hawaii! I think I might be finally looking forward to Hawaii. It'll be nice to be somewhere new for once. I will be homeschooling the kids, and I have to start downsizing the stuff we don't need anymore. I'll be tackling the closet full of boxes one box at a time, starting this week. If I conquer at least one box a week, I "might" be done by December when we move.

I have to call Transportation and find out what exactly I need to do so they can move us. I like to know ahead of time what they can and cannot move. I'm pretty sure most of my pets will have to go. It's sad, but it may be for the best. I have also gotta find out what type of housing we'd get into and whether or not there is a pet deposit. There isn't "supposed" to be with military housing, but I've heard rumors there are and they may be as much as $250 per pet. (Ouch!) Also I've heard the airlines will charge me up to $500 per pet to move them. Spending $1,500 on my cat and dog don't sound like something I can really afford, so yeah, need to research.

I want to run by and see family and friends before I move, but that may not be financially possible. I am gonna be moving just before tax season, so it's not like I can use that money to visit people. Also, they'll be shipping at least one vehicle that I know of, and I need to make sure they will ship them both without it costing me extra. :( That's another one of my worries; How the heck are we supposed to get to and from the airport if they have our vehicles?! I guess we'll figure it out. I have to find out stuff like, do we ship the carseats, or do we take them on the plane with us, and end up having to carry them everywhere? Also, do we pay everything up front out of pocket and get reimbursed? Or can we get one of those nifty military cards and just keep all the receipts for them?

It's a lot to think about. I know December is quite a ways away, but it seems to be creeping up on me faster than I want it to. :(

Easter 2008

I will be having a rather eventful Easter and couple weeks after that. For those of you who don't know, Chris is coming down from MA the 21st of March. Him and Matt will be headed out the 22nd to GA, to grab Emily and her cutie kids, and then back up here to NC the same day. Then onto Easter stuff the next day. We'll goof off, do some egg coloring, preferrably outside depending on the weather, and then let the kids search for the plastic ones around the house. (Now that I think about it, I may need more plastic eggs.) I refuse to hide the real ones... They'll lose one, and then my house will stink until I find it.

Then Emily, Chris, and her boys will be staying with us all week. I have some more dental work done on the 24th which will be one more filling and my permanent crown will be placed. (w00t!) My boys will be on Spring Break, so I should be getting lots of pictures of them and Emily and Chris and Emily's boys. they are all such dolls.

The 26th George will be coming down to stay with us after his AIT. This will be sooo much fun. I get to have 11 people in my house all at once. Yay! The 29th Matt and Chris will drive Emily and the boys home, and then the 30th Chris will head home. I'll miss them, but I'm sure after a week of living with me, they'll be glad once they are home lol. I'm not the easiest person to live with, or so I've been told. We'll see how it goes.

iPhone equals iMigraine?

  • Mar. 3rd, 2008 at 4:29 PM

Well as some of you may know, my iPhone has been a pain in the ass lately. Mostly because it absolutely REFUSED to connect to iTunes. I'd plug it in, and it would come up as a camara, but not as an iPod. So I was checking online at their support site running through the 10 different types of troubleshooting methods. None of them worked... It was depressing. I worked for about 2 weeks running through all these. Only reason it took so long is I would get so frustrated with it and give up for several hours/days at a time.

Today I gave up, and called Apple Support from Matt's phone. The lady I talked to was hard to understand, but extremely helpful. She told me a *new* way of resetting my iPhone. Basically I hold my power button and my home button down until the Apple logo appears. Then the phone will refresh, and go back to my home screen. Only problem is... This alone didn't fix the problem.

The next option was to remove several programs from my computer. She told me to uninstall the following programs: iTunes, Quicktime, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Devices Support. Restart the computer. Then reinstall iTunes. Wait for it to finish the install... Plug the phone in. Voila! My phone was *now* connecting to iTunes. I wrote all this down mostly for future reference. I also posted it here for those of you who may be having the same problem.

I have now updated my iPhone to version 1.1.4 lol. Also I had purchased some new songs and I was dying to get them on my phone so I could listen to them during my next dentist appointment. It's amazing how having headphones on helps you relax. That's a story for another day though.

Change is... good?

So, I find myself sitting at a cross roads in my life. I've lost so many friends over the last year to deployments, PCSing, drama, and for some of them, it was just time to just let go. As a result, I find myself with a small handful of friends, that I want to keep, and I try to keep, but it feels like the harder I try, the more I push them away.

Lately I have decided to just give up on some of them, and wait for them to tell me what they want. I am tired of being the one trying to find out if you are ok. You only push me away anyways. I understand though. Things are tough right now. I've accepted that. Just let me know when you're ready to be friends again. Keep in mind, that sometimes, when you wait forever, you get tired of waiting. So please, don't keep me waiting forever. I'm not naming names, you know who you are. I will be here, ready to be your friend, you just have to let me know. YOU have to take the first step, because I don't want to keep trying and end up pushing you away.

As far as the crossroads part. I have the whisper of Hawaii in my ear. My romantic side says embrace the fact, and go with it. My logical side says yes, Hawaii is pretty, but the schools are sub par and the whole area is impoverish because the cost of living is horrendous. Which do I go with? Or do I merely give up, accept the fact that there is probably no changing it, and resolve myself to make the best of it? I think I am leaning more towards resolve. Maybe it will be good for me. Maybe change can be for the better.

I am scared to be away from the very few friends I have, but something tells me, that there are at least a couple of them who will not grow distant because of it. I also have the feeling that some of them will grow distant, and I even have an idea of who, and it saddens me, but I am starting to accept it as fact and decide that there isn't much I can do to change that fact. I've tried. That's all I really can do. It's like a marriage... It won't work if only one side of the relationship is trying. Same applies to friends.

The sub par schools don't have to be the end of the world for my children either. I can always home school. It might also be good for me and the kids too. No more absences, no more worrying about getting them dressed for school. On days they don't feel well, they can do their school work in their pajamas. No worries. Or so that's what I am trying to tell myself. We'll see how it works out.

My mother got a pacemaker/defibrillator placed in around January. She's doing ok, just still extremely tired and sore. She is still having some issues getting around, but she's managing quite well. She seems to be in a lot of pain when I talk to her, even though she acts like everything is fine. She has been battling a few infections at the surgery site, which isn't helping her feel any better. The defibrillator shocked her a few times the first night, which she said was scary. I'm hoping she pulls through and does better with this in though.

9 months pregnant and counting

have an appointment today at 3:50 and I am gonna talk to them about the fact that she's been dropping a little farther down each day. I don't think she's gonna hold out till the due date, so I am gonna see about getting the steroid shot for her lungs. Basically they give me a shot which goes to her and helps her lungs mature a little faster.

They gave it to me during delivery for Blake, but it didn't have enough time to work and so his lungs were still premature. 10 Days in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) ftl. So I am hoping if they can give it to me today it will have time to do some good for her just in case she comes a little early. I don't want to go through the devastation of going home from the hospital empty handed again. It causes a few things to just crack in your brain to see a baby hooked up to so many monitors and tubes.

Anyways, so that's my plans for the day. Well, that and hopefully getting my truck back sometime during lunchtime. It's supposed to be done today. I can't wait to see if it looks as good as new again. That and I am going nuts being in the house all day.
Cute

Since I will have a guest this weekend I guess now is as good a time as any to clean my house. :p I realize this morning that I have a bit to do, since I have been pretty lazy this week lol. I have cleaned, don't get me wrong. I just have cleaned in small amounts. So today I while Matt has 24 hour duty I shall actually get some cleaning done.

The things to do today? Dishes and laundry mostly lol. The things that never end. I might straighten up the backyard and remove some of the clutter from the house too. I also need to move the turtle tank downstairs because he is driving me nuts with the constant digging at night. Little bastard is noisy at night. lol. Some cleaning on my room as well probably. Not too bad of a list, but let's see if I can get it done today shall we?
