Rain kind of held us prisoner today...

It poured all day. I scooped up the kids and took them to the base with me. We found 3 outfits for Bubba for fall. Boots for Elliebear, the Bluray of the movie Predators, and McAfee's 2011 PC protection since my old one expired. Then I made the decision to go to TMobile. They have a fabulous promotion going on for another week where kid's lines are free til 01-01-2012! It's only 10 bucks a line but that's still a great deal. Xmas gifts. L picked out a pink LG dLite phone and Cici picked out a Samsung Smiley. I have not added internet to them, they will have to earn that. But it's only 10 more per line to add and they have unlimited text messaging. They are excited. Maybe smart phones later but I want to see how they do with these first.
I am almost done crocheting Cici's blanket/wrap. I am also almost done with this book I am reading. I have been trying to keep myself busy. It seems to relax me. I still feel off the charts.
I missed taking the kids to the park today. Hope it doesn't rain tomorrow. We will probably go to the library.
The Rangers are going to the World Series! That's so awesome!
I am so sick of laundry! But it must be done. And I have to make a costume for a vocabulary parade @ Princess' school for next Friday. She is going to be a button to represent the letter 'B'.
I have been feeling super creative. I want to draw again. I wish I had time to write more poems. One day, I will have the time and money for all of that! Here's to patience!

The Busy Life...

It's been 2 weeks since I've blogged. So much has happened. Not much exciting but a lot none the less. I haven't been feeling great. Had some better mental days but headaches galore! And it doesn't help that I fell through the door that leads from the laundry room into the garage and landed on my head and shoulder. This was on the 12th and it's just now starting to feel better. Not even going to mention the way that happened! ;)
My eyes have been in bad shape. I think I experienced my first true migraine the day before yesterday. Nausea, ears ringing. It was horrid. Guess I need to go back to doc for antidepressants and blood pressure meds and quite possibly something for migraines.
Hubby and kids are amazing! We are trying to potty train the twins. Bubba is picking up on it faster than Pinky. It's a job! Elliebear got A/B honor roll the first 6 weeks. Cici is struggling with 2 classes but I am hoping she brings those grades up. Princess is doing great with Kindergarten. She was the start student for the week so we had to decorate a posterboard with photos and info all about her. It came out really well. I believe Bruiser is fast becoming hubby's favorite. ;) She has him wrapped around her finger.
Hubby and I went to my friend JoBeth's Halloween party on Sat the 16th. It was fun. We were dressed as a Roman God and Goddess. I have gotten all the kids costumes as well. Elliebear and Pinky will be Bumble Bees, Cici will wear bunny ears and paint her face. Bubba will be a dinosaur. Princess will be a vampire bat girl (cute red and black goth dress with wings) and Bruiser none other than a frog. They will be so cute. Now to find an activity for them for the evening. Probably trunk or treat at local churches.
Work is so horrid. They will be changing us to strictly retention as of 11/01. Ugh. No sales opportunity at all and upset customers all day. Gotta make the best of it though. I have been crocheting still. All girls have a purse except Cici- she wants a blanket. I'm almost done with it. I have decided to make a blanket for my mother-in-law for Xmas too in her sorority colors.
School in January! That is the plan! We shall see. Hubby and I both! I have been taking the kids to the public library the last few weekends. Princess will be reading on her own soon! The little ones really like story time but you have to be uberanimated when reading to them! We also go to the park every weekend and we have had some excellent weather for it this month!
Things are going ok right now. I can't say I'm unhappy so that's good. More as it happens...

I can't talk to you about it if I don't know what 'it' is...

Last night I couldn't stop crying and it's continued into the morning. I am not really upset about anything in particular at this given moment, but I feel like crap mentally. I think some dormant depression has been triggered. I am at work. Hopefully, I can make it through the day with minimal tears.
I wish I could talk to hubby about how I feel. I don't even know where to begin.
Let's try for something positive. I got most of Halloween's costumes out of the way. Pinky will be a bumble bee. Bubba will be a dinosaur. Princess will be a Vampire Bat Princess. Bruiser will be a frog. Cici is just wearing bunny ears and paint her face. Hubby is going to be a Roman God and I will be a Goddess. Just have to find something for Elliebear. She wants to be a singer from the 80's.
I am kind of excited for Jo's party. And we are supposed to have another Seabee wives outing. Hubby also advised me that he may have a 4 week training course in another state. That kind of bummed me out but I am all for the advancement of his Naval career.
I crocheted a purse for Elliebear on Sunday and one for Bruiser on Monday. Haven't crocheted in a long time. About 10 years. It was kind of therapuetic.
Hubby went out with his friends on Saturday. He seemed to have a good time. He deserves it. I really love him. Yesterday was our first date anniversary. That's what I am calling it. ;)
Well, that at least brought a smile to my lips. Guess I will leave this on a good note.
