Today started really early. And I had a bad night of sleeping. I went to bed late as it was and Jeremy stayed up till 2:30am downloading music. The glare coming from the computer screen woke me up about 2am and I remember yelling something like, "I'm trying to go to sleep here!!!" And then the babies woke up at 5 o'friggin clock in the morning, I was so pissed cuz Jeremy had kept me up. After I fed one of them, I can't remember who, I went back to sleep until Faith called me or Emma woke me up to tell me "Your BABY is crying!" I can't remember that either. Around 9:20am or so I finally got out of bed to take a shower because I had plans. Hannah, Faiths 6yr old, invited me to have lunch with her at school with the sole reason of coming into her classroom to see the newest additions. They had 8 baby chicks hatch this week and she was very excited to show them off to me. When I first got there, Faith met me and then we went to meet her mom and her moms co-worker/friend. Daddy Walt was there all day as well helping out and he came back after I got there with lunch. Pulled pork sandwiches and fried mushrooms. We all ate lunch together along with Mr. Shelly <---- Don't know if I spelled that right. It was really nice, then Faith took me to meet up with Hannah and I sat with her while she ate her lunch. Man, she has it better than I remember having it. She got a decent looking turkey sandwich, a bag of Doritos (never got that), half an orange, baby carrots, milk and a freakin Moon Pie. (Definately never got that). Wish I got Moon Pies when I was a kid. After that I followed Hannah and her First grade class back to their room and the assistant teacher let Hannah show me the chicks. She was so proud, like a little momma. I left her room and walked to the other side of the building to find Faiths class. I hung out with her while she updated me on the drama and put kids papers away. After a while we went back to mommas room and I said goodbye and came home. It was nice visiting Pecan Park Elementary. I could hang out all the time.
Other than that, things have kinda quieted down, but at the same time they haven't. The drama is still thick and I don't really know whats going to happen next. Everyday is something new, and with it brings a new emotion. I can't wait until its all over with.
Yesterday I got weighed and I had lost 4.6lbs this week, I was very proud of myself. I really think it's because I finally started to drink my milk. So far I have lost 22lbs for the meetings and 55lbs since I had the twins. Its really nice. I need a new wardrobe but I'm not ready to spend the money since I don't plan on stopping the weightloss. Tricia and I haven't been able to walk the last two days because of the bad weather we've been having. It's been pouring down rain for the last two or three days. Hopefully tomorrow I will have the chance. Well I gotta go to bed, I am really tired, and I need my sleep. I hope everyone that is reading this is having a good week. And to my family and friends, you know who you are, I love you and miss you. Pray for the drama to end!!!!!!! Until next time...........

I am very sorry that you have had nothing to read the last 3 days. My life has been very crazy and dramatic. Unfortuately I can't tell you about the drama because it's serious stuff that can't be read by some people online. It sucks since this has been huge in my life and now I have to think of other stuff to talk about when I really just want to talk about this. I guess I'll try to remember what else I've been doing since Friday.
Saturday Faith and her two kids, Hannah and Cole, and me and my two older kids, Tanner and Emma, went to the beach so the kids could play and we could work on our tan. It was sooo nice outside. Warm but a very cooling breeze. We took our cameras so we could get black and white pictures of the kids playing together in the water and sand and stuff. They loved it. Until it got old. We spent a couple hours there and I got a shade darker so that was nice. Thats all I can write about for Saturday.
Sunday, Mother's Day, was a day from hell. Because of the drama that is, not because of my family. I'll tell you about the good parts. Jeremy let me sleep as long as I could in between all the phone calls I was getting. It was so nice, and I had no trouble falling back to sleep and that is usually a big problem for me, I know I was exhausted. I got my gifts. The 2 remaining birthstone charms that represented the twins, and a VCR for my bedroom so I can watch all my Tom Cruise movies in the comfort of my own bed. I spent some time putting the charms on a bracelet, evenly spaced, because they are too big for my chain and they just overlapped so you couldn't even see them. Then I got waffles in bed and it was very nice. Then more drama, drama, drama. I called my mom in North Carolina to wish her a happy Mothers Day. It was nice to talk to her and she let me unload all that I was going through. I miss having her in front of me to talk to but I'll take the phone if I have too. I'm sorry that no one was there to spend the day with her, I don't think I would like that very much. But she's a trooper and I was thinking of her!! At around 3:15 or so we went over to Faiths moms house. I didn't really want to go anywhere, I didn't feel like it and I didn't want to see any neighbors. And I really didn't want to go after Faith called and told me she was leaving but they were still expecting us so I had to go. Not that I didn't want to go, I love being with them, there was just so much going on. So we went, and hung out for a few hours. Walt and Jeremy tried to look at the van and see if they could figure out what the problem is, and the rotated all the tires. It seemed to help a little but didn't solve anything. I wish I was a millionaire so I could afford all the vehicle problems we get and to buy diapers. I will be setting up a donation site for your help!!!! :) After that we had to run by Faiths house so I could pick up my milk thats been sitting there for two days and to see how she was doing. We weren't there 10 minutes and then we came home. I can't remember what happend after that.
Monday started too freakin early. The babies were up at 5:50am or something. I wasn't too happy. Jeremy told me before P.T. that he was taking the rest of the week off, and that made me very happy. I did my normal thing, cleaning the kitchen, dining room and living room and then I mowed the front lawn and thats where I got some of the drama settled so that was comforting. My evening was filled with even more interesting stuff that I can't talk about. I went on my walk with Tricia. And I couldn't even finsih the fourth lap. I think it was the humidity because I could hardly breathe, it really kicked my butt. I came home and Jeremy and I watched Gothika. It was very good. I had started to watch it Friday night with Faith and Joy after we rented movies but we got 20 minutes into it and Faith was freaking out. She doesn't do "scary" movies.......at all. So I brought it home along with Runaway Jury to watch with Jeremy. He seemed to enjoy them.
Today has been ok. The boys woke up after 7 and Faith called me when I was feeding Cade to give me the latest update. And I'm not too happy about it. Tanner has his last class at 12:30 and I go get weighed tonight so I'm excited about that because I think I had a good week. Not much more I can say so I'm going to go. Until next time...........

Another day. Another early morning. Emma peed the bed again, except this time it was Tanner's. He wasn't to pleased. So I took this as a sign to thouroughly clean the hell hole that was their room. It took me all morning. At breakfast I told them my plans, that we were going to clean up the bedroom and Tanner says "Mom, you have to help with toys" so I say, "Yes, I am going to help you but you have to help too" and he replies with a smart mouthed, "Oh Yeah, Your helping." I wanted to knock him out. I told him it wasn't me that messed up his room and I shouldn't have to clean all the time. So he says "Yes you did, your helping" I stood there dumbfounded. It starts!! So after breakfast and feeding babies, I tackled the bedroom. Did either of the children contribute to the task at hand??? I'll answer that for you with a big fat, HECK NO!!!! I stripped the beds and organized toys. By the time it was all said and done I had bagged an entire garbage bag with toys and trash. It was outrageous. Looks really nice now, I just hope I can keep it that way. After that I scrubbed the hallway floor and Mop and Glowed it. It looks really nice.
I ordered Papa Johns for supper, It was really good. While we were sitting at the table Jeremy asked the kids if they wanted to go somewhere with him after supper so Tanner asked him where. Jeremy didn't want to say so Tanner kept asking. And then Emma busts out her daddy by saying, "we're going shopping, mommy!!" Jeremy's yells, "Emma, it's a secret, that was a secret." I was cracking up. She looked so cute. Apparently he had told her something before dinner and she decided to share with all. I already had my ideas though that they would be shopping for my Mother's Day present, I just didn't want to say. It was so funny. So off they went. They are still gone, and I'm just hangin out with the boys. Cade is sleeping so I think he is down for the night, I just tried to put Connor to bed but he went balistic so now he's in the swing. I'll transplant him later. Well I am going to go for now. My weekend has started as tomorrow is a down Friday for us. The two hour Friends finale is on in 15 minutes and it cannot be missed. Until next time.............

Sorry, I couldn't think of a title for tonight and I am currently watching South Pacific on T.V. and he started singing the song as I was getting ready to type so I went with it. "Then fly to her side and make her your own..........." Sorry, again. Getting caught up in the moment. So today was so-so. Woke up too dang early again. 6:45am to be exact. And I am tired. Today was beautiful here. I was outside most of the afternoon hanging out with my neighbors Angie and Tara, while our kids played in the pool in Angies front yard. I even took the babies out there to enjoy the nice weather. Connor did great, I forgot he was even out there at one point because he was so quiet, just taking everything in. I brought out their bouncy seat and thats where Cade was hanging out so occasionaly you would hear the "boings" and other noises and songs when he would kick the foot sensors. He got a little irratated after awhile so I took him home and put him in bed. He had spit up everywhere. I am getting so sick of that. I still wasn't able to get ahold of anybody today in Radiology to make his upper GI appt. So I will have to try again tomorrow. That will be the day that everything will stay down and it will make me look like a liar. Anyways.........
I made breakfast for supper. Sometimes your just hungry for it. I made scrambled eggs, turkey bacon, hash browns and the kids also had waffles. It was good but now I'm hungry again. I may have to go get some grapes or something. After dinner or breakfast, I walked to the BX to get some Mothers Day cards and a new Cordless Telephone, because ours is really acting up. Then I left base again and went to the Dollar Tree for a couple things. I stopped at Faiths on the way home to hang out for a little bit and then came home so I could walk with Tricia. I had to park the van at the Park parking lot because I can't drive on base due to my little issue. So I walked home, it took me 10 minutes. I never had to walk through the gate before. I walked another half hour and came home to blog. Jeremy just got back from retrieving the van. He said he felt stupid because the guard some him walk right past her and then less than 5 minutes later drive right back through. Sorry, Honey!!! I am a little worried about Jeremy right now because he is having problems with high blood pressure and it won't seem to go away and if it doesn't he will have to go on medication. They are checking him for partial kidney failure and that freaks me out. He wrote about it on his blog, doesn't seem to worried about it, I guess thats my job. Just pray for him. So that the test will come back negative and that his body will get back to normal.
Well I am off to bed, I am soooo tired. Until next time..............

"Look Mom He's Got One Too!!"
Today started a little earlier. At 6am Connor woke up and Cade followed shortly after. Of all mornings. I didn't go to bed until after 1am because I went to the ER last night to wait with Faith, Cole and her Mom because Cole had gotten bit by a spider and his right ankle was three times the size it should be. So we were all kickin it at the hospital, a good time was had by all. Needless to say 6am came too quickly. I gave the twins a bath and Tanner, like always, wanted to be in the tub behind them. In this case it was Connor. I put their baby tub in my bathtub incase your confused. Anyways, Tanner is standing up behind him in my tub and I am washing Connor and I hear "Look mom he's got one too" So I look over at Tanner to see what he's talking about and he is standing there with his penis out two inches from my face. So I say " yes, Tanner, he does, now put that thing away." It was a Hallmark moment, and I am scarred for life. But he seemed pretty pleased with himself and thats all that matters...........I guess.
Other than that things were uneventful. I did make a new WW recipe and it was good. Pasta BLT, yum. Oh, something else did happen. I went to get my mail today and lo and behold I had an unexpected package. Jeremy's Aunt Ann sent me a birthstone bracelet that she had specially made for me. It has all of the kids birthstones as well as Jeremy's and mine. Not many colors to work with, only three, since Jeremy, Connor and Cade share the same month and Tanner and Emma share the same month. I'm the only loner. But it is a really nice bracelet. I love getting things that are unexpected. Makes you feel thought of. And it was just in time for Mother's Day. Which reminds me, I really need to get to the store. See I am thinking of you mom!!
Tricia and went on our walk tonight, we only did 2 miles, but it was a good workout. I went to my meeting and I had lost 2.4 more pounds so that was nice. Two more and I will have reached 20 for the meetings and 50 all together since the boys were born. Feels good. Well I am tired and my mom is waiting to read this, what up Focker!!! LOL So I am going to bed. Until next time..........

I don't know.............
...............what to even write. I feel like blah, right now. I guess I'll try to recap yesterday since I didn't make it on here. To all of you that read this everyday, I apologize. I'll try harder next time. The babies did really good through the night again, I can't remember exactly when they woke up but I think it was around 8am. They turned 12 weeks old yesterday. I can hardly believe it. They have gotten soooo big. They are really starting to smile a lot more and make sounds. They can prop themselves up on their forearms with no trouble at all. It's fun to watch them look around. Anyways, I had every intention of getting my house cleaned, but for some reason I couldn't make it happen. Except I did get my living room cleaned and I even dusted the tables. It was a huge improvement. I do good when I "power clean". Thats what I call it when I know that I have someone coming over or something I want to watch. I wait until the last 20 minutes and then I'm forced to get it done and get it done fast. Well last night I wanted to watch Sopranos, and I usually power clean before the show starts. I know it sounds crazy, but it works for me. I went to bed by 10:30pm and didn't wake up until 8:10am when Caden woke up. He had fallen asleep somewhere between 5:30 and 6 the night before, and didn't wake up until after 8, can you believe that????? Connor went to sleep between 7 and 7:30pm and he didn't wake up until 10am. I don't know whats going on but I'm enjoying it. A full nights sleep on clean sheets!! (we did get some laundry done, I guess) It was the best sleep I've gotten in a long time. Looking forward to doing it again.
Today has been a little more productive, I've been irratated so I turned it into energy and I cleaned my kitchen, dining room and living room (again) and on my hands and knees, mind you, scrubbed all of those floors. In base housing, at least in ours, all the floors are linoleum so you have to constantly scrub and mop them. I long for wall-to-wall carpeting. After they were dry, I went back and Mop and Glowed them, so now they are shiny. It's nice to see the front half clean. Now to conquer the bedrooms!!!! I've got to get myself cleaned up because I have to take the kids to an appt at 3. But now that I think of it, I'm not supposed to be driving, so maybe I can get Jeremy to take them. I kinda hope so. I don't want to get caught again. Until next time.................
PS Sorry this was so homemakerish!!

I woke up this morning at 7:10am with my husband gone and the babies crying at the same time. It was like a regular day almost which left me very irratated for most of it. Saturdays are usually my day to unwind from the week and get some much appreciated help from Jeremy. Well no such luck on this particular day. I don't really know all of the details but Jeremy had to write a a program that would calculate scores for drill downs. Instead of taking hours to manually figure everything out he has written something that takes like 45 min. It's a pretty big deal and people were very impressed with him, and greatful to have such an efficient thing. So this morning he had to go to this Drill Down and enter all the scores from all of the ROTC kids/schools into his program. The irratating thing was that he was gone all day and I had no idea where he was or when he was coming home and I hate that with a passion. I like to be prepared. He finally came home around 3pm. He got changed and then we drove to Moss Point for a BubbaChew at Charity and Travis' house. That is Faiths sister. A bunch of people were there, some new and some old to us. It was a fun time. The kids had fun playing with some new "friends". Emma, in all her sweetness, decided to take it upon her self and pick me a bouquet of flowers out of their garden. I'm not talking about 1 or 2, I'm talking about a friggin BOUQUET that would have made FTD proud. She comes up to me with her hand behind her back, just as proud as she could be, and handed me these beautiful Lilly's that used to line their driveway. "They're so beautiful mommy." she says. And I say "Yes they are Emma, Thank you soo much." Luckily they didn't get to worked up about it. Travis made some comment that there was no need to prune them for next year. He's a real funny guy. I'm used to the yellow and purple weeds that Emma picks for me out in the back yard, on almost a daily basis. She loves doing that for me and helping me put them in my Vase with water. Until they turn into that white puffy stuff like dandilions do when you blow them in the breeze, and thats when they have to go.
Other than that nothing else has happened today. Jeremy had to go grocery shopping when we got home, because we had no food left. I couldn't do it because of my license thing and let me tell you I am all broke up about it. I absolutely hate grocery shopping. He picked us up a Rotisserie Chicken for supper, and it was very good. We've never gotten one of those before. It's nice though because for less that $4 you get a hot, tender, seasoned chicken. We'll definately get it again. It's nice in a pinch. Well gotta go for today. Until next time.............

Free at last.......For the evening.
Today started promptly at 6:50am with the twins waking up to be fed. I was able to put them back in bed and get a couple more hours of interupted sleep and even that was nice. My best friend Faith called me at 9:47am to let me know that all had gone well with her divorce this morning. And she was embarassed by the fact that it was sooo easy. Apparently it's easier than GETTING married, and thats sad. I read that out of every 10 marriages 5 will end in divorce, and the other 5 will have varing degrees of marriage. Mostly those that stay together, choose to for their kids. It doesn't leave one with much hope of a successful marriage. I'm determined not to be one of those couples. I want to have a very successful marriage, not just one out of convenience. And I believe I am on the right track. Not to say that Jeremy and I don't have our ups and downs, because we do. We just have more ups than we do downs. And we never fall out of love at the same time, although Jeremy would say that he NEVER falls out of love. But he must have his version of it. I will never have again what I have in Jeremy so I'm determined to hold onto it. Speaking of marriage, Tanner informed me today that he is going to marry me. He seems to have it all planned out. His daddy and Emma are going to sit in the chair and watch a movie. And we are going to go to a church and get married............next week!!! He's very infatic. And he reminded me all day, "I going to marry you, mommy" He was very sweet so how could I say "No"? We are anxiously anticipating the up-coming nuptuals. Wish you could all be there.
So in celebration of said Best friends divorce, she busted me out of my prison for the evening and it felt soooooo good. First we had to drop off her kids with the ugly ex-step-mother-in law, so the kids could spend the weekend with their daddy. Then we decided we were hungry and on the way back to civilization we thought we would eat at Favre's Bayou or something. To all of you that don't know, this is the homeland of Brett Favre. Whoopty-doo, anyways his family supposedly owns this restaruant. I had to pee so bad so thats the first thing I did. Faith stayed and looked at the menu and decided that we would not be staying because she thought it was too expensive, and told the waitress that we would not be needing drinks when she asked. So I come back and she say's, 'I'm going to let you look at the menu and then we are going to leave." I was sooo embarrassed, and the hostess was staring so I didn't want to leave right in front of her so when she was seating someone else I say "Come on, Come On, lets go." and I run from the table right in front of the manager or something, I thought he was a customer until he says "Is everything alright ladies?" I didn't even look back, we both just said "Yes Sir" and high tailed it out the door. I am so mortified at this point. I would never have done this normally, I would've sucked it up and paid the money. I don't like to cause scenes or confrontation, but Faith wasn't having it. I was at least going to buy a drink and then leave. Oh well, it's one for the memories. We left and ate supper at Chili's and then we walked a half an hour or more for the Walk for Life thing. I'm sorry if thats not the actual name for it. But its a walk for Cancer. It felt really nice, the weather had cleared up so it wasn't raining anymore and it made me think of my own aunts who are fighting or have fought breast cancer. I would love to see a cure one day. My biggest fear is that it's going to keep on coming down the line and my Nana and mom will get it and then eventually me. But I won't dwell on that right now. We went with Faiths mom as well. She has become my adopted mom while I'm here in Mississippi, her whole family has taken me in. So I have aquired 4 more sisters, Faith, Hope, Charity, and Joy. Momma has dubbed me Paitience, which if you know me well, is so ironic. I love the family, especially since mine is so far away. After our allotted 30 min. We met up with Daddy Walt, Joy, Charity and her husband Travis, and his friend Matt and went to AppleBees. I guess they wanted to celebrate with Faith or give her support. She really did good today, I am very proud of her and how brave she is. Well I am going to get off for now. Until next time.......

There's really not much to write about today!! Nothing extraordinary. It has rained all day long which has left me in a funk. Put together with the fact that I can't drive anymore I am feeling extremely trapped in my own home. Nothing to do, nothing to look forward to. Before it started to throw down this morning I ventured outside for my daily chore of watering our garden. A few weeks ago Jeremy dug up a patch of earth and planted some seeds. Pumpkins, Cherry tomatoes, Romaine Lettuce and Salad bowl lettuce. All have started to grow. But the real excitement lies in the Pumpkins, because they have grown so big so fast. Why couldn't it have been something we would actually eat? Oh well, it's fun to know that we have grown them ourselves from seeds, and instead of paying ridiculous prices for them at Halloween, we can harvest and decorate our own. The kids will love that.
Last night I actually made it the whole 3 miles. It felt good to do it, with relativly no discomfort at all. I am eventually going to make it up to 4 miles, 6 days a week but for now the 2-3 miles 6 days a week will have to suffice. I'm enjoying the fact that I can "shop" in my closet. Things I haven't been able to wear in a while are starting to really be baggy on me. I guess thats what losing 47 pounds does to someone. It feels good, I 'm finally starting to feel good, but I have a long way to go. I have to go to the gym tonight and walk on the treadmill because of the freakin weather. I hate walking on there it's so boring. Anyways..........
The babies were a little better today, but not by much. I hope they snap out of it. Last night we fed them and bathed them and then they were in bed by 9pm and they didn't wake up until 7:30 this morning. It was sooo nice to sleep all the way through the night. Emma informed me this morning that she was my best friend again, and that made me feel so much better after yesterday!! :) She's quite the character. Tanner had his normal day with his normal blanket tied around his neck, so he can pretend to be his favorite super-hero at the moment. The thing drives me crazy, because it is on from the moment he wakes up until he hangs it on the top of his bunk bed ladder when he goes to sleep. One day I'm going to burn it, I swear!! Well I hafta go, Friends is on and it can't be missed. Until next time............
PS. There actually was a highlight to my day. I checked out Jeremy's blog site this evening and come to find out he had written the whole thing to me. It was the sweetest thing he's probably ever done, because now the whole world can read how he feels about me. It put a definate smile on my face. I love him so much, and I'm glad that he's mine. The link to his site is at the left. The Oaken Glen. So check it out sometime.

So my day started bright and early at 6:38am. And it's been non-stop ever since. Not that anything really happened today, it's just been one of those days that you never think will end. The babies were in rare form all day. Instead of their usual 3-4 hr feeding schedule, they were up every two hours, and sometimes less. Which left me very tired and frustrated. So now I'm starting to think that the reason the boys are having such a bad day is linked to the fact that they had their shot's on Monday. I hope they have a better day tomorrow, I don't want a repeat of this one. At one point this afternoon both of them had woken up screaming bloody murder so I acquired the help of my 4 yr old, Tanner to feed Connor so I could feed Caden. He did a great job and fed the entire bottle to him. This greatly upset Emma, who wanted a "turn" to feed him. So now came the rantings of my 3 yr old with such classic lines as "You not my best friend anymore", (Thats her all time favorite.) and "you no play with me." She stormed out of the room wailing like she had just been amputated. When I had finished feeding Caden and burping Connor I went to comfort Emma. I found her in my bed still crying hysterically. I laid down beside her and pulled her close and it was then she informed me that "You make Jesus sad." I asked her why and she answered by saying " Because you no share that brother, You make Jesus sad" And then one more time for good measure she repeated "You not my best friend anymore." It was all I could do not to laugh, I finally calmed her down with a promise that the next time I needed help feeding "that brother" she would be the one to do it. All is well in the land of Emma.
The "highlight" of the day was that our BX Baskin Robbins was having a "free scoop night' to advertise the new Shrek movie. So after dinner we loaded up the fam and trekked across base, first to get Jeremy's dry cleaning and then we stopped to get our scoop. The kids got the Shrek sherbert or something and I left with the Cookie Dough. Who knew a single scoop could taste so good. Now I am on my way to walk it off with my friend Tricia. I'm going to go for 3 miles tonight. We'll see how it goes.
*Side Note* Last night my nieghbor Bernie gave me some hope about my driving situation or in this case lack there of. He said I may be able to appeal it to Jeremy's Commander because I have extrenuating circumstances with the 4 kids in all. No such friggin luck!! Looks like I'm hoofin it for 28 more days.
I am so looking forward to the weekend, except I won't be escaping as easily as I'm used to. Faith I'm ready for another weekend away!!!!!!!!!!!

My soul has grown deep like the rivers.
— Langston Hughes, The Negro Speaks of Rivers (1921)
