Today Marks One Year...

Since my hubby came home from Iraq. This time last year we were like newlyweds again. And still are most of the time, thankfully. It was nice to have Easter dinner together, just our little gang.
have been so super busy.
Ok. Bruiser got her ears pierced for her birthday. Its what I was obsessing about. They were crooked. I ended up taking them out completely and will attempt to get them redone when I take C or L for their bdays.
Last Saturday, April 16, I went to visit my aunt Susan. Took the kids so hubby could study. My brother made chicken speghetti, got to visit with Maude before she went back to LA. Also, uncle Paul and his wife were there. It was a nice family visit.
We are going to have to move. It sucks. I'm not ready, but its unavoidable. Organic chemistry is not as easy as I thought it would be. And I'm tired.
I hid eggs, plastic ones in the yard for the kids to hunt yesterday. All but Cici. She got her braces removed last Tuesday. Her teeth look good. Elliebear spent the night with her friend Melissa Friday. Both girls had good report cards.
That's all I can think of right now...

It aint easy being crazy...

I am having issues today. Funny how the physical can affect the psychological... I woke up this morning with that stinking pain in my left eye. Guess I'm paying for my great weekend today. I can finally keep it open right now but its still watering and both eyes feel like they are covered in sand. I have been having allergy issues for the past 2 weeks. Ah. The joy of spring. I took the kids on a mini picnic Saturday at the park and then on Sunday we went to another park. I guess the elements got to me.
So of course feeling like crap has left me feeling like crap. I am having a severe OCD day- to the point of tears. I won't mention what it is because I know it seems trivial but its bothering me like a high priority issue. Anyway, let's try to recap.
On Saturday, when hubby got in from class, we went to see Source Code. It was very good. Sunday, I took the kids to the mall and got Pinky and Bruiser's ears pierced for their birthdays. It was Bruiser's bday and Pinky's is next Friday, but I didn't want to make that trip again next weekend so I just got them both done.
Bruiser turned 4. She really liked her gifts. They all watched her Tangled movie together. I got all of them pillow pets. Princess got a penguin, Bruiser- a frog, of course. Pinky got a bumble bee and Bubba got a monkey. They all seemed to like them.
Well, that's about all I have right now. Just want to feel better on all levels.

why am I always the one...

Who is checking up on others?
I was thinking about how I genuinely miss people when they are not around. I facebook and text, not even always getting a response, and does anyone do that for me? No. I never get just a hi. How have u been. I haven't seen you. I missed you. Nada. This really hit me today. I guess this is mostly work related but I have 2 friends I love dearly who come to my desk to see me and talk to me on a fairly regular basis. Not that the universe centers around me... My complaint is in regards to myself... why the hell do I care so much about people who could obviously do without my presence?
Just wondering... Maybe its my imagination. Maybe not.

aye aye aye...

OK. Quick updates...
Chemistry is kicking my ass! Thought I did really well on a test last night and that's what I get for thinking...
Went to see a movie with hubby last Saturday called Insidious. It was really cheesy but really scary. And it wasn't gory. It was almost like walking through a haunted house. We really enjoyed it.
Sunday we got a new TV. It's a 50 inch LG 3D TV along with 10 pairs of 3D glasses and a 3D player. Super deal on it. I cant get the picture to look like it did in the store but it still looks good. Haven't had a chance to check out the 3D yet. Bruiser has Tangled in 3D coming up for one of her birthday gifts so that will be the first and I am thinking of checking out Tron in 3D. Saw both at the theatre and was very impressed. Hopefully the TV will leave the same impression.
I am concerned about hubby taking on too much. I really want him to have better grades but I know how hard it is with the kids home all day to get stuff done, especially study. They are still in daycare 2 days a week. They really like going to "little school" too.
Cici is concerned about the TAKS test. She says she doesn't think she did well on the math portion this Monday. She feels good about the reading part (Tuesday) though. I don't want to jinx it, but I want to know what happens if you don't pass part of it. I really want her to advance to high school next year.
