Deep in the Heart of Texas

We have arrived.

First the necessary thank yous.

Jenn and Todd....Thank you so much for being so good to the Steins. Ya'll not only helped us move, but the you put us up for two days. All only days after Todd got home from iraq. Man, what great folks.

Amy and Jane...Thanks for helping with the move. Be careful what you offer (Steins staying with you on their return to Colorado), one day people will take you up on it.

Michelle.....I can not say enough about how sweet and kind you have been to the kids and I. Thank you for ALL you did. You are the greatest.

Tara.....for flying to Colorado only days after returning for Ireland and then spending 15 hours in the car with the kids and I , well and being their biatch.

And of course to my dad and Lisa and the terrific In-laws for planning to come all the way up to Colorado to help. I bet you are glad you didn't have to.

Clint Update:
Well, to all of you who are planning on sending Clint a package, do not bother with phonecards. He is able to call through a Moral line.

He is getting pretty adjusted....well as adjusted as you can be when you are under mortar fire during dinner. He will be going on some "field trips" and will get to see quite a bit of the country. Cool for him, but freeks me the fuck out.

He starts two of his final four college courses, the 29th of November. Yah baby. He will be coming back with a degree. Gotta love it.

Penis juice and vodka

We have one more week of school here, yet my children have already disconnected the brain switch. I hate to tell them but we will home school throughout the summer. Luckily for them we can get our work done in less then two hours with only three kids and of course the fact that I sneak projects in throughout our everyday activities. Ethan decided he is exempt from the school dress ode because school is almost out and the daughter has jumped on that band wagon. I decided to let it slide. I figure a cute little t-shirt isn't going to ruin any one's grades, they were all turned in on the 24Th, so we will see if I get a call from the school. So today's little golden nugget of delight is brought to you by Ethan. Mom:Ethan, quit messing with your business. Go to your room if you want to do that. Ethan: I am not messing with it, it hurts. It feels like I am going to bleed when I pee. Mom: Oh honey, I am sorry but you will have to go to your Dad. He is in charge of penises. I handl...

The Doodlebops, Blackfive, and What a girl!

Okay, I have a few things to say this morning. I will start with my children's obsession with the Doodlebops. Everyone in the house is now being called DeeDee. They call us DeeDee. They are calling themselves DeeDee. Why can't I be Mo (I think that was Mo)? Little weirdos. In an earlier post , I spoke about my brother's blog and the blog of Blackfive being mentioned on MSNBC . I would really like everyone to go check them out. If you don't, I will kidnap myself and take a bus to Las Vegas . I would also like to encourage you to get yourself a HOT t-shirt to wear to all the summer bar-b-ques . I cannot remember how I got to this wonderfully intelligent, young lady's site, but it is worth a gander. Please leave her a comment too. Let Jennifer know what you think. One last little note. I see my counter rising like crazy. I appreciate all of you who come to visit and want you to know comments are NOT necessary, but maybe you would like to take this opportunity to ...

Oh Those Chickens

When I was a young girl, I was always suffering from some "ailment". I am pretty sure it was for attention. Of course the attention was often a spanking for being such a giant pain in the ass and after a trip to the doctor, the diagnosis was an attention whore. Well I'll be damned, my chickens are coming home to roost. They are coming home, pecking me in my ass, and then shitting on my head. Emily has a doctors appointment thia morning because she is certain that she cannot hear. I believe that her eras are clogged, but not that she is permantly going deaf. Dear god help me if she is because that will mean I actually have to get up off my ass wen I need her for something and can not just yell for her. UGH!!! This could be problematic either way. If my Mom were still alive, I am certain she would be attending all htese appointments with me just for the sheer joy of pointing and laughing at me. I mean really, if it wasn;t happening to me, I too would be pointing and laughin...
