Let the countdown begin....sorta

I am a little behind with the posting but I only have 2 days to go until I leave for CA to visit Kim. I so excited I can't wait. My mom continues to try and make me feel bad for going. I am staying strong! Of course now though we may get some snow and I am worried that my flight will be delayed if that is the case. I hope we don't get any so I can get going. I am not looking forward to the flight really. It's long and I have to change planes a few times. Second guessing my choice of seating. I requested aisle seats but maybe I should have asked for window seating. IDK I guess it doesn't really matter. And for some reason I am worried about flying. In part b/c of my mom bringing up every bad thing that has happened lately and in part of everything that has happened lately. I know I will be ok so I will deal and take my mind of it.

I had an Endocronologist appt the other day for my PCOS. I have paperwork to get a crap ton of blood taken. Which has to wait till I get back and I don't think the dr liked that but oh well she will have to deal with it. Anyway I have it set up to do it when I get back. She also wants me to have an ultrasound on my thyroid b/c she thinks it could be enlarged or have nodules on it. Amd since I can't get rid of the PCOS I need to think about what I want to fix in the bigger picture if my cholesterol is high or pre diabetes or the facial hair or something like that. I was like WTF? To much to think about that is for sure. I will keep you all updated
I probably won't update before I leave but have a good week everyone!

How do you.....

How do you go from an A in math to a D within a couple of weeks? Let's ask Hunter! I get a call from the math teacher today and he is concerned about Hunter and wanted to know if something is going on. Ummm no what would be going on. I felt like a dirty old mom or something they way he asked. Maybe he was uncomfortable b/c Hunter gave nothing away when he was asked the same question from the teacher. Anyway I assured him things were fine. Apparently Hunter is not asking questions when he is confused about something at school and just goes on his merry old way. Also he' s not turning in homework. Now I know he does it here at the house but who knows what happens to it when he gets out of the house! So I wrote notes to his teachers and asked questions and made comments about some of the things that Hunter has said. Like the math teacher acts angry and the other one yells all the time. WTF! So I brought it up in the note. I am sure I will get a call or something tomorrow from Mrs Caretti the alleged yeller about that. I don't want to embarrass him in case he is lying but I need to get to the bottom of this now b/c of the call from the math teacher. Tonight Danny sat with him and helped with the homework and he said Hunter didn't know what he was doing and was just writing stuff down. He has never asked for help so we assumed he was doing ok. His grades were great he got all A's on his report like 2 weeks ago and all of a sudded a D. It's insane is what it is. I hope I made the right decision and I hope Hunter gets over this being afraid to ask questions shit. Otherwise the rest of his schooling we are going to be SOL for.

Happy Valentines Day!

Today was Valentines Day and I hope everyone had a good one. Danny got me a massage gift certifate and it couldn't have come at a better time. My back has been tight and bothering me for a little while now. I made an appt already for Tues to go in and have one done. I am glad abou that. I racked my brain all week trying to figure out something to get him and couldn't come up with anything. Luckily today he went out and bought himself a video game. All in all it was a good day today.

I hope everyone is enjoying the weekend and Happy Valentines Day to all my wonderful friends!

California here I come!

I got my plane ticket today for my trip to see Kim. We assume Danny got leave and pretty sure he did and the ticket prices kept going up so he told me to get it. I can't wait I am so excited!

Hunter made...

Hunter made the honor roll and Principals list. He is so excited he gets to have lunch with the principal again. Ah to think that is cool in grade school lol. We are so proud of him. We took him to TRU and he got a scooter. I hope he rides it :) d

Families suck sometimes

So Danny put his leave chit in today to see if he can get it so I can go to see Kim in CA but my mom is throwing a huge fit. She doesn't think I should go and leave the kids here with Danny. Because I am with them all the time she doesn't think he can take care of them. I was like WTF!?!?! It's so annoying that she is such a downer but I am not listening to her I am going to go anyway if Danny gets leave. If Danny didn't think he could handle it he would tell me and he said it's fine for me to go and things would be cool. So now I get to listen to her when I talk to her until after I get back and she sees things are fine. UGHHH why do families suck sometimes? It's like I get to have no fun or a life or anything b/c I am a mom and that is not the case. I know I will miss them but I need time away and when Danny goes back to sea duty he will be gone and I will take care of the kids with no help. I don't see what the difference is really between him and me. Once she saw the guilt card wasn't going to work she tried the well we were "thinking" of coming to see you around that time. She then said for her birthday which isn't till the 15th anyway I told her she was lieing she didn't admit to it but I know she was. Then she started on "aren't you afraid to fly" Umm no not really. I finally got off the phone. UGHHHHHHH! It's neverending and she is so freaking negative about everything it drives me crazy sometimes it really does and today is one of those days I guess.

News/update

So today I got some news that was great! I may get to go visit a friend in CA for a few days and get this...WITH NO KIDS!! The hell you say! I know if Danny can get the time off he doesn't care if I go. And the tickets aren't that bad priced either. I hope it works out I could use the break and it will be good to see Kim I have missed her. Plus I get to go to CALIFORNIA! I have been there of course lived in San Diego but this is Monteray somewhere different and I am sure beautiful if what I hear is true. I have the best husband in the whole world I mean come on he's great isn't he. I am so excited fingers crossed that it all works out for me.

Things have been going ok here. Got our taxes filed and getting those back soon so that makes me happy. Of course we are mostly paying bills with it but that's ok it has to happen I guess. I was going to put Lucas and Lilah in a MDO program but I think I will wait till fall to do that and hopefully some future plans pan out for us so we can. I need a day off sometimes and they need the interaction with other kids. Lucas talked to my mom tonight and she said he is talking better she understood almost everything he said. That is good to hear that from another person. I am with him all the time so I don't really grasp the subtle changes but others are starting to so that is good.

Had a playdate and it was good. A nice turnout and we all had a good time. Lucas and Delilah were played out b/c they took an excellant nap this afternoon it was awsome. They haven't slept that well in a long time and Lucas wasn't even awake at 3 :30 when I went in there to wake them. Tomorrow we might go to the mall and play for a bit and have lunch. My days go by so much fasther when there is something to do in the mornings. My only problem is waiting around till it's time to go at 10:00 or so. It really drives me crazy sometimes. But oh well it's ok I will deal and enjoy my time out.

Hunter is doing good he is goin to be 10 soon. I really can't believe it he's going to be 10! Where has the time gone? For the past 3yrs it's been about the twins: getting pg with them, danny being gone, having them, me having c section issues. Time has just flown by. In 6 short years he will be wanting to drive. In 8 he will be off to college. My baby is growing so fast and nothing I can do can stop it. Ahhhhhh....

I would like to have him a birthday party so we will see.

That is how we are doing right now and what's going on. Till next time see you on the flip side.
