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.

And I thought I should Change the Title of My Blog

I was considering a new layout, a new title, well just an overall new feel to my blog. I mean some things have changed since I first started recording my thoughts and feelings of the going ons in my everyday life. Well, I am no longer taking Paxil and well, crap.....I think that is it. I thought the poop was really no longer an issue as well until this week. Someone decided that an oopsie poopsie was not something they might share with their mother. You know the lady who does the laundry. I was blessed with the joy, upon removing clean clothes form the laundry, an overwhelming smell of shit. Yep, SHIT!!!! I had almost all the clothes in the dryer and noticed a wad, a ball, a massive roll of poop. Apparently someone had pooped enough in their underwear and then just snuck it into the dirty laundry. GROSS!!!! I mean really?!?!?!? You don't think you might have at least given me a heads up so that I could pre-clean the undies. Man, boys are so gross!

The Return

I have begun to gather my thoughts and put them into mini posts. It was then that I decided that this blog was often the best therapy possible for the trials and tribulations of everyday life. It is of course a way to also preserve for posterity the strange and delightful things that my children say. Back soon.

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
