BBbbloooooooooooaaaagggggg!!!!!!

I'm losing my mind. I'm losing my mind. I'm losing my ever loving mind. Ladeeee daaaaa!!!! La la la laal lOooooooooooooo!!!!!!


AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAkkkkkk!!!!!


Why, are you losing your mind, Sara?

Um. Because I DON'T KNOWWWW WHAT TO DOOOOO!!!!!!!

EEEppppp!!!! ppppthhhhhh... *faints*


Okay. *ahem* So, the hubby graduates on March 18th. Then what? Exactly. He's been told by his unit that he can be put on 30 day orders till he finds something permanent, or after the 30 days if he hasn't he can do some kind of flying something or other as a job till he can find something. Great. But not permanent. He has applied for another job that has openings in Dallas, Austin, and Houston... the Dallas one is a bit of a stretch, but why not... anyhow... he won't know anything about that until at least the middle to the end of next month... so the plan for now is: Go to San Antonio, just in case. Okay, great. So we are looking for a place to live in San Antonio... next problem. How long are we gonna be there? Don't wanna buy a house if we're moving to Houston in April... most apartments are up to 3 bedroom and don't have short term leases... there is a military clause that they do if he does get that job and gets orders to move... BUT. What if he doesn't get that job and we are staying in San Antonio? Well, we don't want to be stuck in an apartment for 12 months! We want to buy a house!!! So do we just rent a house right now? Well, there are rent to owns, but they don't want you to sign the rent to own contract unless you know you are staying (which we don't!). And finding a house in which to live that will give you a lease for less than 12 months is seemingly impossible! AAAAAAAAAAAAAKKK!!!!

*deep breath* Do you see my dilemma?

So. I just bought a plane ticket to go to San Antonio next weekend and sort this mess out. Wish me luck. Heaven knows I need it. I will have 3 days to find a house... home... apartment... tent.

Random LOL

So I had a dream last night that Angelina Jolie was trying to kidnap Sammy..... HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAA!!!!! Seriously though, it woke me up, really upset, and I had to lay there and force myself to try and either a) go back to sleep and finish the dream or b) lay there and try to go back to sleep whilst running through my mind the ways I would gotten out of the situation...

Oh yeah, she was taking him to Mexico alright... *nods*

*needs more sleep*

YOU MUST WATCH THIS!!!

OH MAN!!!!!!!!!!!! I ROFL SO HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




"AAAAhhhhhhhhh, pppfwa."

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So BUMMED.

First of all, did anyone see Hugh Jackman's opening number last night! Oh man!!! Jackman for the win!!! LOL!!! "I AM WOLVERINE!!!!!!!"

Okay, why am I bummed you ask? Well. Big D has been chosen to be in the 1st Grade Chorus at the primary School. It's a new thing they just started and we were so excited for him to get to do it. BUT... the hubs passed his PT test this morning which means that we will for sure be moving out on the 18th of MARCH! EEEP!!!! SO MUCH TO DO!!!! *pulls hair out* So Big D doesn't get to be in any of the performances. So I wrote a note to the music teacher to let her know. I'm so bummed.

Here's some cute picks from the school's web page of the Chorus.

Ike has a party!!!!

Today we had Ike Ike's birthday party!! Woohoo!!! All of his little friends came over and we had a firetruck cake, ice cream, presents and a pinata! It was a fun time!

Fun, fun, fun!

So this last weekend, as many of you know, I went up to St. Louis to clean out my mom's storage unit. Well, let's just say I never wanna see another vomit bucket as long as I live.

Sammy had been sick last Monday, but by Thursday I figured he was well enough to travel, so I loaded up the boys and we headed north. We got in about 9:00 Thursday night and the boys were SO happy to see PopPop and be out of the car! But by Friday morning, Ike Ike was throwing up and had a rip snortin' fever.


We called the my brother that was coming up with his family and warned them, but they came on ahead anyways and arrived Friday night (by which point I was throwing up) as well as my younger bro and his wife. Thankfully, Ike Ike was better by Friday evening and mine was gone by Saturday a.m.. So we got up Saturday and the brothers, SILs and I went over and tackled the storage unit. It is probably a good thing it was as COLD as it was, or we would have probably taken more time sifting through things, but as it was, we moved pretty quickly... after sitting around for an hour waiting for a locksmith to get us into the unit cause the key we had was wrong. Oi.
Anyhow, we packed up several truck loads for Goodwill and some illegal dumping, and then took a big load back to my dad's house to sift throught the boxes of pictures and papers... see...


(This is nothing! We had it pretty well sorted by this point!)

By mid afternoon, David was throwing up and my Stepmomma was sick. Yay!!!

Then it moved on to my younger brother, my niece, my nephew, and I think the SIL and other niece were feeling crummy as well. But we got everything sorted, trashed, or given away that needed to be.

Monday was Ike Ike's birthday, but we didn't get to do much celebrating since we weren't home, but he got to pick something out at ToysRUs and he got a cake and spaghetti for dinner. He still said it was his "best birthday ever!!" I love 4 year olds!!!
Daddy was on speaker phone since he couldn't come up with us.


But, we're home now and most everything I brought back has been put away... er, stacked in the hallway...

I hate moving.

That said... we're moving to San Antonio mid-March. It's pretty much a for sure thing now. We have to find a place to live, and arrange movers, and etc etc... I want to go crawl under a rock... please?

Loved this!!!

Only hands small... *snerk*

Just a note.

I've started another blog. I wanted a place to right down some memories, thoughts, etc, while I try to work through a few things, but I didn't want to change the mood of this blog. There's a link on the left.

Fun Day!!!

Today was Family Day for Nathan's Blackhawk class. We go to go play and explore and got some fun pictures!! I believe if you put the mouse over the pic, it will give you a caption...

Our week... in pictures!

So when we went to visit my brother and his family a few weeks ago, they gave us all their wooden train pieces. We have played wooden trains EVERY DAY since we got back!!! Add the pieces they gave us to the ones we already had, and WOOHOOO!!!! Of course Sammy drives the trains and says "Beep Beep!!!!". Ah, whatever. Same basic idea.








We were playing and having Ike Ike make emotive faces! Here are his: Sad Face, Angry Face, Happy Face, Silly Face, and Surprised/Scared Face! :)






My Hair...


We made chocolate chip cookies... and then needed a bath...







This child always has his mouth open... Ain't he cute!?!




P.S. Thanks for all the positive feedback on my hair. It's taken some getting used to as I don't feel I have anything to hide under anymore. A little disconcerting. And I am still playing with it, trying to figure out how to work with it. My hair has NEVER been this short in my life... and it's SO thick that it mostly just looks like a hair helmet if I don't do anything with it. But it dries SO fast!!! :D
