There has been a whole lot of nothing really going on around here.

The kids are well into school.

The house is slowly getting unsummered.

Fall weather is approaching.

And my house is in gear up mode. (another entry, another time)

(more…)

To be said 5 times fast:

Blue Black Bugs Blood

Going to bed now, have fun

So, I thought my computer was on the mend… Until today, at least.

No, now my computer no longer copies or pastes, or drags and drops icons, folders, or files. Which kinda sucks.

Tired of everything, I decided I just want to reformat. Yhea, not happening for a while. I still have files I need off the hard drive that has my operating system….. Fuck!

I am thinking of seeing about taking it to the repair shop on base to have a look at it…. And all I want to do is journal, craft, print, and play games.

I miss my computer!!

This has been a very lazy weekend. The Husband had weekend Duty on Saturday, a report hour of 0800. After getting his stuff ready for him, I curled back up in bed. He left and I crashed. I was woken up by a very hyper and happy puppy because the Husband was back home… The time? 0938. Wow! That was his shortest shift in history!!!

So now what was the plan for the day? Curl up and cuddle!! Damn, that is something I haven’t done in a long time.

We were supposed to head to Wine Fest at Burnkcastle. Asked one friend if her family was going, got told no, not her thing (Only to find out later, they did go… ). Went to get a hold of another friend, but couldn’t.

I ended up taking a nap and sleeping until 5pm. That felt really good! We decided to go catch G.I. Joe at the theater. Good movie. Let the older three sit where they wanted, which of course they sat with friends. The Husband, Little Man, and I sat and watched the movie together. About half way through it, Little Man started to get bored of sitting. Knew he wouldn’t sit through the whole thing, but forgot my headphones that would let him watch my iPod. All but Daughter loved the movie. Daughter said she spent most of the time trying not to scream. Asked her why and she said it was scary… Scary? *shrugs*

Sunday was commissary day! The day of grocery shopping. The day I spend anywhere from $400 to $600 at once on food supplies that will last me all of two weeks. Not a day I enjoy.

Started unloading and putting the groceries away and realized, I forgot food! And stuff I needed for supper!!!! Gave Daughter some money and had her head back up to get it, but she couldn’t find all of it. Once I was done putting everything away, I headed up and found the missing items. Came back home and got to wrapping potatoes for the oven.

We had a lovely BBQ and I spent most of the night fighting with my computer. I keep getting the Blue Screen of Death when I play Sim City 4. I can’t find my old SimCity to see if it also blue screens, and so far it is only SimCity that does. Which really annoys me, as that was the game I have been wanting to play!

Today, is just another lazy day. With nothing really to do, a place to go, or people to hang out with. The Husband’s shift has been moved yet again, and not in the direction I was hoping. But this new shift will mean I get up earlier and might actually make it to the gym! Eeeks lol. I need to.

This is a very blah post today.

Oh, I know what will add a little to it! I get to get an iPhone!!! I am sooo happy. Once Apple gets the iPhone 3GS to the T-Punk store, I can pick it up. And the best part? I get it for free!!! For renewing my 2 year contract. I am sooo very excited. It could take up to 4 weeks, or longer to get it, but just the fact that I get an iPhone, and it can get unlocked to be used in the states. I am happy. With both the iPod Touch and the iPhone, I be having lots of games to play. Now if only there was a phone Kevin liked also, one that he could get the google calendar on… But it would need to be a slide or flip phone… Think I am going to go browse t-Mobile’s website for phones….

This first week of back to school has been harder then I thought. Honestly. The 6am alarm has been going off, but I am actually not hearing it until the 6:10 buzzard. I am sleeping threw the first one, and shutting it off while asleep. Not good. So the 6:10 goes off and I stretch, which is hard due to a child curled up between the husband and me. I turn off the alarm so not to wake the husband…. And the 6:20 alarms goes off… Fuck.

So I stretch again, this time more room due to child moving closer to dad. I hit the snooze again so as not to wake the husband…. And the 6:30 alarm goes off….. Fuck it!

Monday, I woke up at 6:00 no problem. Tuesday the 6:10 crawled me out of bed. Wednesday, I got up at 6:20 perfectly fine…. Thursday, I had troubles at 6:30… Today, I almost slept in till 6:40…. This is not good peoples.

But I crawled out of bed, grabbed my clothes and dressed, with said child that was sleeping soundly, waking up. I got 5 “Mommy, your up!” hugs as I made my way out of my room… I am finally dressed and slightly awake as I make my way down the stairs to the kids’ rooms…

First victim, er, I mean child, is Dokota… I open the door, which startles him awake (not sure why since I do this daily….) and go to be even crueler and turn on the light. The light flashes, and is out. grrrrr.

Kauchana is the next to wake up. She is a bit harder, mostly because she thinks she can be a total B and then smile and that makes it all better. I honestly hate waking her because of how she acts.

Xavier is the easiest to get up. Turn on light and he jumps out of bed and dresses within 3 minutes. That child is total morning child. Makes me sick.

Head back up stairs and Derric is already chowing down on breakfast. After his first little bag of poptarts, he is downstairs getting dressed and comes back up for seconds. That child can eat, when you find food he will actually eat!

Tis the same morning routine, but it seems everyday is getting harder and harder to actually wake up. Today I need to head to the BX, need light bulbs. Both Dokota and Kauchana’s rooms are out. I’ll by the bulbs, but they need to clean those rooms so I have room to replace them. I’m not sure I even know the colors of their floors anymore…

I also need to list my elliptical and waterbed on the yard sales website for this base. I have about 6-10 more weeks before my new bed arrives. So waterbed needs to be gone, and the elliptical needs out so I can move my bookcases from my room to the office. Which will clean up my bedroom greatly. Those bookcases make my room feel tiny and cluttered, even when it isn’t. And if we had thought about it more when buying the bed, we could have gotten the entire set because we are moving the bookcases, which will clear up room for the dressers. But we didn’t think about that when we bought it. Maybe an addition later in life. Right now, I just want my new bed.

Of course this does mean I have 6-10 weeks to break Derric of crawling in bed with me.. The water bed is easily to clean if he sleeps to hard and wets the bed. An actual mattress will be even harder. That is why his bed has the plastic. I don’t want plastic on my bed…

Oh well, I am rambling like crazy. I have an hour before the BX opens, two hours before the T-Mobile/TKS shop opens. I might be getting an iPhone, just need to do some research!!
