So, I guess I'm stuck at my job. I got a really good review (finally, lol) and that was going to be my deciding factor about whether it was time to move on...
I got a higher dose of my medicine last week and I've felt a lot better since Sunday, which was about five days later and it supposedly takes a week for you to feel the full effect.
We only have two weeks of school left, which is bittersweet. I can't believe my oldest child will be in second grade!! I remember being that age myself, lol. We think she has another loose tooth, also.
Vacation is in less than four weeks!!!! I can't wait to see my family. We're in mega planning stages now...
I have a new obsession with a game called text twist and every word i see I try to pick out other words that can be made out of those letters. Its a weird habit that, once I get tired of the game, hopefully I can get over it.

yup, those really are Hanes underwear!ugh.
I had yet another doctors appointment today. I had to take all three kids. They did really well, though. No problems at all.
I was hoping so much that this would be my last appointment. I wanted to find out I had lost at least another pound or two despite all the ice cream I ate and all my other hard work has paid off.
Not so. Not so at all.
I found out the name of the specific condition I have. Which is really neither good or bad. There was no improvements at all in anything.
What they said i have is fairly common, although usually in people much older than me, but it worries me that they will find more and more wrong and this will never stop.
ugh.
I would love to come home and cry myself to sleep for a few hours but, nothing doing. My kids expect to eat even though they have been snacking all day.
I never get a break. :(

I lost the remote :(
Things are looking up. There are only 3 1/2 weeks of school left for my daughter, and my hubby only has one class although it is every day of the week.
We have our vacation planned out. I have some ideas for keeping the kids entertained. I would love to do a google search for more but my computer is being super slow and interent explorer is being a pain.
I'm in firefox right now which I've become neutral to.
Seeing all of these earthquakes in other parts of the country has me worried. I guess eventually it has to happen but after the little one in August, I prayed very heavily to NOT die at work. haha.
People out here seem so casual about earthquakes in the same way as when in Florida I made friends with a girl from somewhere in the midwest and she always freaked out about hurricanes. She thought we should all be concerned just like it kind of seems strange to me that no one out here seems concerned.
But then, what if you spend your life worrying about something that never even happens?
Anyway...I still say hurricanes are less scary because you know at least a week in advance that one is on the way...at least headed in your general direction.
I remember back in 2004 when during two tropical storms that cam real close we stayed in our church {{instead of our mobile home with the big huge tree in the yard}} and the roof was leaking into the electrical box. We had heard that there was a good chance of tornadoes so we stayed in this inner room and I was trying to decide which would be worse, burn to death from an electrical fire or be blown away by a tornado.
Yes, I do get dramatic in certain situations.
But we had lots of food and games so those were some fun times.
I am so excited that my husband is finished with his first semester of seminary!!! I am so glad we are on our way to finishing and being done! I was talking to my neighbor a few days ago and her husband only has one year left. We were talking about how fast it was going to pass ans then it hit me: after they are done, we only have one year left!!! How utterly exciting.
I want to move somewhere really cheap on the east coast.
I'm really going through some job stuff lately. It comes and goes, to be honest. I like my job since I have to have one, but I feel like I'm being held back, like I have some kind of potential that just needs the okay to be released.
Or maybe I just want to run the place and get all the lazy people out of there, lol.
But like last night I was put in a position where all I did was push boxes down the line. There was more than enough people to put the boxes on the flats. I felt like I was completely wasting my time because usually on double truck nights I am put in hba to push the boxes on the aisles. On a motivated night I can finish four or five aisles by the time the trucks are done. I even asked my team lead and he said he wanted me somewhere else but I was told by my boss to stay where I was. Whatever.
I don't get logic sometimes. Well, there was really no logic there. No need to be nice on my own blog, right? haha
I had a dream last night that someone found my blog and found out who I was. I don't really have anything personal on here, but the reason for this blog is to be anonymous. Somewhere I can be honest about my feelings without any fallout.

What a pain
I'm trying to plan our vacation.
Ordinarily, it's supposed to be a fun thing. At least, thats what I've always thought. I guess thats just when other people were planning it.
It seems like everyone has an opinion about what we should do and when, yet no one is willing to look up flights or book anything.
I already have three suitcases full of clothes for my nephew and I've been told we have more than that to bring back for my kids. I don't mind any of it but when you think of lugging it all around an airport it gets really overwhelming.
Last year, we left with three suitcases and came back with seven, then we were stuck at the airport for 3 hours and when we did get headed home, it cost over $100 and took another several hours.
We talked about driving but the rental car is going to be a lot of money and my husband doesn't want to drive back. I don't really have an opinion about that. I will once I get there, though. Especially if we drive there and it sucks.
I already know flying sucks, hahaha
Anyway... hopefully we get it all worked out this weekend and then I don't have to think of it anymore, just go and enjoy.

Weekend stuff
We had a really good weekend.
Our little town had a festival at the lake which was a blast.
Having little ones always leads to funny unforgettable moments. We sat at a table under a canopy to eat snow cones and my six year old decided to let her balloon go just like her little brother did after a few seconds of having his. I told her she could do it assuming she would know to go outside of the covering to take it off her wrist, buuuutttt apparently I was wrong. She was even a little disappointed that she didn't get to watch it go all the way into the sky.
We found the balloon before we went to leave in the top of a tree.
On our way out, we stopped at the fire truck that was there and my son just fell in love with it. He had a huge smile on his face and kept going through the line to sit in the drivers seat while the siren went off. He ran everywhere, like he was unable to walk due to the extreme adrenaline rush he was having. It was hilarious to watch. i wish we had our video camera but we did get some still shots.
We spent Sunday afternoon playing video games. I am still awful but I did manage to complete a whole level of Mario all by myself. It was funny to me how I just mentioned to my hubby once that I was in the mood for some gaming and he set up the system that night. I don't know that I would be comfortable playing with anyone else due to my lack of skill, though.
Last week I ordered some clothes from this place I haven't shopped at since before kids. I only picked a few things because I wasn't sure if it would fit and after growing extremely impatient over lack of tracking info I finally got them today and they all totally fit me!! I'm very happy right now because of it.
Tonight is the first night back at work. Sometimes I wish I didn't have to go, but...since I do have to I'm glad its at least somewhere I'm comfortable being. I go through this thing sometimes where I don't like anything out of the ordinary....
