Its been many moons but here I am...

Where do I begin? Lets do one of my quick updates...
1. I had a physical exam a little over 2 weeks ago. The results came back with excellent reviews. My cholesterol, blood pressure, etc are all fine. So all my problems are mental. :) My migraine med dosage was upped. It's still not working. The headaches are apparently stress related. I have been referred to a head doc to discuss my stresses and I will go back in a month to see the family doc.
2. I am still kinda hating my job. I think I am burned out. I can't really afford to do anything else right now. So, gonna keep counting my blessings... health insurance, good wages, decent friends... I will keep my heart set on nursing school and a career in the medical industry but for the near future, guess I will be content.
3. Hubby's orders were approved for his training class. He will be half a country away for 2 months. Good for him. I am all for his advancement and all that that entails. But I will miss him. And in case I didn't mention it before, he was promoted... UT1/E6 now. :) I am hoping I can work something out with my mom where I may be able to visit him for a few days while he's there. The beach! Looking forward to it!
4. My stepson, J-Man came over to stay with us the weekend of father's day. Hubby was glad to see him & vice versa. For the most part, the girls missed him too. We had the usual clashes between J & L. But for the most part we had fun. J, L & Princess went to VBS the last week of June. We went to see fireworks with my brother & his family on July 4th. We went to one of the public swimming pools another day. That was fun. We went to see Transformers 3(I saw it twice, once with the fam & once with hubby. It was very good.)and we saw Cars 2 another day. We put the pool up in the back yard. That has been pretty cool too. Bought some nice new patio furniture.
We went to Six Flags one day. Missed out on the Titan but rode everything else. Spent the first half of the day with Bruiser and Princess but the evening was just the big kids. I was so proud of them because they rode the Shockwave & Judge Roy Scream. I was more terrified for them than they were. Really good times. The 10 million dollar renovation of the Giant was well spent money. It was excellent by far! I wish I could have done more but I think overall, I had a fun vacation. I was off the week of the 4th, by the way.
Well, we finally got moved out of the old place. We are pretty well settled in the new one now. Still have a few more boxes to unpack. Found lots of stuff gonna put aside for a garage sell before summer is over. My mom wants to come over & help and add some stuff she wants to get rid of too. She just moved into a new apartment. I haven't seen it yet but I am glad she is in a better place now.
Its almost time for school to start back up. I am really nervous because there will be 4 schools and work to get everyone off to in the AM. But I am sure I can do it.
Hopefully I will get to do this more than once a month. Just been super busy and the blogger app on my phone has not been working, so finding time to sit in front of the PC has been difficult.
School should be starting up for me pretty soon too. I really want to get started on my bachelor's but again... time. Wish me luck!
