Happy Days Are Here Again!!
Oh my goodness what a week this is turning out to be. The funk has finally lifted and it's all because I grew some and took matters into my own hands. I feel like I can finally talk about this since it is over and honestly I don't give a crap anymore. So here is the gist, I'm not going into details but my best friend was having an affair with my next door neighbor. Yesterday I had enough and made the decision to walk over there and tell his wife. It went great and she started making the rounds. It's not really working out the way I would have had it work out. Because she seems to be believing things he is saying and she said she is just going to forget it or something. He is getting away with this scott free and making Faith look like a fool. Like for the whole 6 months this has been going on, it's been her thats pursued him and its been a mutual thing from the beginning. Faith is in shock at how he is acting and the things he is saying or not saying. I feel like saying "I told you so" but thats not what she needs right now. She's crushed and I am going to be there for her. I am on cloud nine. I have been threatened though, but not directly. So if anything happens to me all of you are witnesses! :) He told her this morning on the phone that "Jenny had better not cross my path." OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOh I'm so scared. He can't do a damn thing to me. And Jeremy said that if he comes over I am to call the police and he will talk to him. In fact yesterday when I was telling the wife everything she made me promise to call the police if he came over. So I've got my phone handy. Now it's time to heal. I feel like I lost 50 pounds. I wish it would show up when I get weighed tonight. :)~
I wish I would've done this a long time ago. I really do feel like I finally did the right thing. Well I am going to go for now, just wanted to give all you concerned readers an update!!! Plan C turned out to work. Until next time...........................

Not much to write about today. Nothing much happened. I didn't go anywhere and I didn't do anything or see anyone. I haven't had a weekend like this one in a long time. I'm usually running around with you-know-who on weekends. The kids played out in the pool thats in the front yard again today. They really like to do that, and I don't mind because they keep themselves busy most of the day doing it. Jeremy and I spent some time together and got some housework done. Got the babies bathed and dressed. Right now they are in bed sleeping for the night and Tanner and Emma are scaring themselves watching Jurassic Park. They wouldn't let me change the channel even when they were hiding behind me because they were so scared. Gluttons for punishment, just like their mommy. All in all it's been an eventless day so I won't bore you trying to come up with stuff to write. Until next time...........

Screaming on the Inside!!!!!!!!!!
So, here is the update. Such as it is. I have talked to Faith a few times over the last two days and she is making it easier for me to want to runaway................fast!!!!!!!!! She is acting so dumb that I'm in disbelief. Her refusal to just wake up and smell the rotting pile of crap she's in is driving me insane. And I don't care if I hear one single solitary thing come out of her mouth regarding the whole situation. She deserves everything she gets. And I deserve all the stress that comes with it if I decide to stick around. I'm leaning on the side of not. What I was hoping was going to be the end last night was just another dragging out of the inevitable. These are the weirdest people I have ever been involved with. And I feel like checkin out!!!
Until next time..................

Well I just got off the phone with Faith. I haven't talked to her since Sunday night. It was strange to hear her voice, I almost didn't recognize it at first. Something has come up and she wanted to know if I was involved. Things may finally be coming to a head around here. Let's hope so. She said she would call me later. She sounded weird. She kept saying things like "I'm not going to stand here and try to carry on a conversation" and " I know you don't want to talk about this." I told her to let me know though and I reminded her that I love her. So we'll see how it goes. I feel better though. It's almost better to be miserable with her than without her.
Jeremy got to come home early today, that was a nice surprise but now he's passed out on the bed. Oh well. The twins and Tanner are sleeping and Emma is running around the house. My mind is just racing right now, I can't even think coherently. So I may have to finish this later. Maybe I'll have another update. Until next time..............

Today was day two of mission "Set Best Friend Straight" and it's not going too well. Apparently she is intending on keeping her head in her ass. So what else can I do? One email was exchanged and tomorrow I vow to make no contact what-so-ever. She probably won't care. It was hard today but it was better than yesterday, which means that tomorrow will be better than today. It stands to reason, right??
Caden woke up bright and early, sometime after five a.m. Jeremy got up and fed him so I got to sleep a little longer until Connor woke up after 7a.m. I didn't bother going back to sleep this morning as I usually do. Instead I got very interested in a documentary on HBO called Jockey. It was about 3 former and current Jockeys and what they have to endure just to entertain the masses. It's a very sad reality. You wouldn't believe the things that they have to do just to maintain a minimum weight of around 113lbs. "The box", which is a sauna, so they can sweat off water weight exceeding 10lbs sometimes, is often used everyday along with going to the bathroom to use a special stall made just for heaving or "flipping" their food. It is much larger than a normal toilet. The damage they do to their bodies including their teeth is extensive. Most have had to have caps to replace the teeth that the constant throwing up of acid has eroded. One man, a legend in his time, is fighting for his life. Randy Romero, I believe thats his name, has had something like 21-23 surgeries because of riding. While sitting in "the box" a light that broke caught him on fire burning over 60% of his body. He had to have a transfusion and now has contracted Hepatitis C from it. The constant "flipping" has ruined his organs and he is now trying to get on a donor list for new kidneys. It's a constant chain reaction. I don't know why I've decided to write about this, I just found it very sad. They just want to do something that they love and they are treated worse than the animals they're riding. The owners and trainers make the millions, and the men and women that risk their lives in this dangerous sport are often left not knowing where their next paycheck is coming from. It's a crock of crap. Thats my soap box for now.
Back to my life, not much happened today. I cleaned up a bit and hung out with the kids. It was weigh-in night. I found out that I have lost another 3.4lbs this past week which got me to my 25lbs lost. I still have a ways to go but I am steadily making progress. I have lost 8 lbs just in the last two weeks because I included dairy into my diet. Now I'm an advocate. Milk DOES do a body good. Well I am signing off for now. Hope you all are having a good week. Until next time..........

It's been awhile since I wrote in here. So much has happend and yet nothing at all. I had to tell my best friend last night that I could no longer be there for her as long as she was going to continue what she's doing. It was one of the hardest things I have ever had to do in my life. And my heart is broken. I'm hoping that this will all make sense and that I will accept the decision that I have made and stand by it. I wish her well and I hope she gets what she wants and that she will be happy.
Other than that its been the usual around here. Jeremy returned back to work today after taking Tuesday thru Friday off. It was nice to have him around. He went on Friday morning to take a class so that we can rent Pontoon boats out in our Marina. We were planning on doing that this Saturday with Faith and her parents, but thats not going to work out now. Maybe this summer Jeremy and I can get out there.
Yesterday my friend Andrea from Kansas City called me out of the blue. She just graduated from Art College Saturday. I couldn't believe it. I could have sworn she had another year left. I met her in Iowa before she moved to KC to go to school 3 years ago. Time flies. She's chit-chatting, asking me what I've been up too and what I was doing this summer and then says "I'm coming to see you" And I said "Are you serious" anyway she says she was just going to surprise me sometime in the next couple weeks and show up, but she couldn't take it. I am excited to see her. It's been awhile. I never thought she would actually come. But her grandma gave her a check for $2000 and she said she had no excuse not too. So Andrea and her daughter, Lily, are either leaving on the 24th or arriving on the 24th. Not quite sure yet. Wish I had money so we could actually do something while she is here. Sometimes you just hate being an adult. This is one of those moments. Well I am going for now. Thanks mom for all of your advice and nice words and comfort you had for me today. I love you so much. Until next time..............

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..............
