Long Over Due Update

Follow my blog with Bloglovin It had been a while since I actually posted much of anything. It is finally time for a long over due update. It has been crazy here. On July 9th I had major dental surgery so I have been out from that. I am healing slowly and that is all anyone really needs to know right now.. As some know my aunt and uncle are visiting from West Virginia and its been spending time with them. Friends came from Texas to visit and it was a blast. So it has been a fun filled weekend. I need it especially after having dental surgery. We have been to the Ocean here, back to Mount Rainier ( no snow this time) We have been abit if every place possible. I will have pictures soon I promise. I have not had time to edit them all.. The Kids have been between here and spending the summer with Friends. I am guessing having them home for the summer is not completely going to happen lol.. Anyways, I will run for the moment but i will have an update and more pictures soon

I Survived

LOL, I know some of you are wondering about the title, after my weekend you will see.. So as some of you may know by following me on Facebook, that my youngest turned 8 on the 18th. We had a small birthday party here for her on the Friday after that. My Aunt and Uncle are in town and came out to the party.  It was alot of fun, but I tell you 5 screaming girls till 2 am is not the way to go.  The party was a success and I managed to get the house cleaned up fairly quickly after that.   I still have to take the tent down and wash sleeping bags but that isn't to bad.   Saturday morning was interesting that is a fact, our neighbor and friend had to be rushed to the ER, and hoping and praying we find out that is it nothing serious with that.

Christianna has had a friend over and they finally went home. Richard has his friend here and I can handle that as long as Richard Stops lying to my face. I am so sick of it..  Yesterday I went shopping with my aunt and cousin and it was fun.. Had a girls day.. A much needed one at that. Its been so long since I have actually been out and had a good time.. Its time for a much needed break, Anyways here are some pictures from the Birthday/Slumber Party Madness and preparation.

 

I hope you have enjoyed.. I look forward to hearing from you :)

Happy Blogging

 

Weekend is almost Here

It is finally the weekend and I am glad.. Need to catch up on some much needed sleep..Although this weekend has been fairly well.. Rick finally gave in and we got a Dog. I wanted a smaller dog but you know, Its ok.. Sabot is a Lab/Shepard Mix and is very lovable. He follows me around like crazy and last night slept on the floor on my side of the bed. He is about 4 years old and is very discipline. Barks when someone is outside or at the door. Today I have been trying to get the info so I can register him on post. Finally got his shot records and tomorrow Rick is supposed to go and register him on post. I have to go to housing and get a fence permit. Yes, you have to have a permit to rent a fence here the yards are not fenced in.

I am hoping to have a few pictures of hims this weekend..

 

What a Week

What a week, Though it is only Wendesday but it has been a MAD HOUSE OF A WEEK! First Monday Christianna called from school saying her wrist her. OK, I admit I thought nothing of it at first, Except it being a play to get out of school for the rest of the day. Well I was Wrong.. She came home, Her entire Right hand (she is right handed by the way) is swollen and turning blue and purple. I feel it and its ICE COLD.. My first thought is she some how pinched a nerve or some how a vein is blocked.. Well I wait till Rick gets home and he looks at his.. His first thought was Emergency Room. I knew that was coming from his mouth. Not something I wanted to do.. Needless to say I had him Drop Both of us off because he had the other two to deal with and I didn't want to drive.. I sit in the waiting room for alittle over an hour and finally get called back. Then once back to a room they send us to get XRAYS and back to the room.. I sit their and wait 45 minutes later a doctor comes in.. They dont see much on the XRAY. Another hour later another doctor came and Thought he seen a possible break and a fracture. Ok, They splint it and tell me that they are going to let the radiologist look at it. So Finally it is 9:45pm and they come back in. Don't tell me if its broke, Fractured or what. No meds for pain or anything. The clinic calls Tuesday and asks how she is doing. I tell them that she is still in pain and they have me take her in.. Well HELL That took FOREVER... I was late for the appointment due to I had to find a place to park and when I did I had to walk a mile to the Hospital.. Got inside and the next task find the clinic well went to the wrong one.. Finally get to the wrong one, they give me a hard time because I don't have her ID Card With me.. Okay, She was hurting and it was the last thing on my mind.. She is seen finally and after an hour of listening to the DR yell because this is considered BULLYING AT SCHOOL and IT NEEDS TO BE STOPPED. Well, No SHIT Seriously, She tells me one thing and the doctor another.. She said she was pushed and then trampled over.. She tells me that she was knocked into the door and fell down and tried to catch her fall.. Ok, So call the school and bitch but what is it going to solve if she does not tell me what really happened. I get that she is the new girl in school still and she is not with the in crowd.. Seriously not something I can help with that. She will get their and make friends she always does.. So I find out that she has what is considered a concussion of the arm.. NOT SURE HOW THAT WORKS BUT OK.. I know she has a small hair line fracture. She is to wear the splint and go in for a repeat XRAY and Doctor follow up Next Month. I can do that.. I was told to go and get a temp ID from the Tricare office in the Hospital so I can get her meds.. Get there and told no they do not do them. Next thought was call Rick and have him bring me her ID. Took like 5 tried and finally got through. Waited for him to come home and grab the ID and Drive all the way out to the Hospital. 30 Minutes not to bad. Lesson learned ALWAYS KEEP THEIR ID CARDS LOL So we get coffee and wait. No big deal.. He brings me the ID and I talk to him for a few minutes and he comes to the house for Lunch. I go to the pharmacy and grab a number for the Prescription. Sit their for 3 hours and they call my number.. Then another 10 minutes waiting in line. Up at the window that goes by pretty quick.. We finally get home at 230. Just in enough time for Richard and Diana to get home from school. Richard of course is mad because Christianna can not help with chores and he has to do them. Seriously he will get over it. I do not get their argument over the chores. Rick has said we will pay them.. The older 2 gets 21.00 a week and Diana is 7.00 a week..
The older 2 hand over 40.00 a month for their cell phones but still that is alot of money for them in 1 months time I think it comes out to 44 a month for Richard and Christianna.. Minus the days they do not do the chores or do them correctly. They loose a day of pay for that. Ok, I am not sure at this point if I want to do that but then again it will give them some concept of money and management and everything. They have to pay their cell phone bills in order to keep them. If they want a new phone they have to save the money and upgrade it. As well as if they want a new computer they will save to do so.. I am not buying them things especially if they do not appreciate it.. Richard is all the time complaining he needs a new computer.. The last time I checked a new computer was WANT not a NEED.. Chrisitanna has a hand me down. Broke screen, The CD Rom Drive is completely broke.. It does the internet lets her listen to music and youtube and she is happy.. Not once does she say she needs a new computer only wants a new computer eventually.. She already has decided she is saving money for a new phone.. The girl has gotten the worst of everything. Diana I tool her computer away. I got tired of her ignoring everything told to her.. I really wish she would listen. She is to worried about playing with her friends.. I guess I can understand she never really had friends to play with in Oklahoma unless we went to Texas. Then she never wanted to leave. Ok, Who can blame her on that on though.

Well I am done rambling for the night.. I am off to bed.. I have been so tired lately..
Good Night and Sweet Dreams..

Sunday

This morning we went to the first service at Church. 

First service is  seems to be better than second service 

But either is fine with us. We enjoy the church that we go to.

The kids actually enjoy it too.. 

Went to staples to get a few more school supplies. 

The only thing left is glue and crayons.. YAY... 

I also ended up getting a new printer.

It is a Wireless Printer. I love it.. 

It prints nice and very easy to set up.

Monday is CD sales for the unit. 

Wednesday is graduation and I am taking pictures 

of Graduation. Also have a few appointments set 

up for pictures this week and it is going to be great. 

I am excited to get some new faces to shoot. 

Now the kids are cleaning rooms. 

We have been after them all week to do 

so and Rick is making them do it now.. 

So hopefully they will learn and keep them 

clean this time.. Very doubtful that will happen but who knows

Well that is it for now.. 

More later
