24 Years Ago Today

Well, 24 years ago today I graduated from Andrean. I remember how scared I was about my future. However, 24 years later I feel okay. I have advanced degrees, a wonderful husband and two wonderful children. I did learn so much at Andrean, things I didn't realize I had at the time. The young mind really is a sponge.

And another thing . . .

Why is Denny's always crowded in Kunia. Everytime I go by there no matter what time of the day there are people waiting outside. That food is terrible and it's Denny's. We ate there and I thought I was going to puke. It's disgusting. There is no rhyme or reason to it.
Also it is Memorial Day, a day we should honor those who serve, have served and those that gave the last full measure of devotion from the Revolution to today. Well what does that stupid Greta have on???===that's right more crapola on that great American Natalee Holloway. Am I the only one who is sick to death of this stupid blonde and her mealy mouthed family? I don't think so because others have brought this up before. If it was me or our daughter it wouldn't even get a passing mention. There are thousands of missing young kids and young men and women in this country. Why in God's name have we had to spend an entire year listening to what the hell happened to someone who went on vacation and didn't come home. My very good friend Moria who was more like a little sister to me went to Costa Rico and never came home alive. That will be seven years on July 2 but the only ones who will remember is the ones who loved her and still miss her. However, the whole country has to be reminded about this stupid blonde in Aruba-Enough Already. There are far more worthier people to spend an hour on than some spoiled brat whose family can afford to take private jets to Aruba to look for her.

Random musings for May 28, 2006

So the world's most eagerly awaited bastard has been born. Who cares? Evidently those who decide on the news stations think we all do. I could care less. There was probably a ton of bastard children born yesterday but only one got the news.
Another thing-the Red Lobster ad about dreaming about some stupid shrimp dinner. If someone is waiting and dreaming about some dumb shrimp dinner than they have bigger problems than eating the said shrimp dinner will solve.
The Villages-Florida's Friendliest Hometown is truly living up to it's name. They have the highest rate of STD amongst the senior citizen crowd. They blame this phenomena on Viagra and the fact that the old gals don't have to worry about getting pregnant anymore. Scary.
Viagra, Cialis-do we really want to know if old foggies are having sex? I don't, it makes me nauseaus just thinking about it.
Tomorrow is Memorial Day and as some Viet Nam vet in the rolling thunder expessed on the news we should honor the men and women who are in Iraq and that just because the going gets tough doesn't mean the tough leave. I think he was trying to express the fact that we should have finished the job in Viet Nam and we need to finish it there. He also hoped that soldiers received the respect they didn't. I hope they do as well but I don't hold out much hope for this leftist, anti-war, anti-Bush crowd. They would rather see us lose I truly believe then to see it all turn out well and he go down as Reagan did (they all hated him 25 years ago too) as one of our best Presidents. It certainly isn't their favorite President BJ.
Well I will have some more serious musings later but these are just some things I wanted to express.

A little Prince turns two

Well today is JPM's second birthday. Of course he loves all his Thomas stuff but he's driving me crazy with that lego set which may have to go in the closet for a few weeks. He got to talk to his Grandparents (maternal) and to his Daddy who called him from Iraq. I have a feeling Daddy is on a mission but I don't know that for sure.
We will go to church tomorrow night. Both kids weren't feeling too good this afternoon. It was a good thing we didn't go though because hubby called. We will go tomorrow night.
I can't believe he is two now. He's so cute and so is his sister. They are the best kids in the world.
Well, hope to hear from hubby soon. We miss him so!
Till tomorrow then.

A little Prince will be two tomorrow

Well tomorrow is the birthday of the Prince aka Little King, Little General, Little Bubba, Little Headache. He is going to be two. Can you believe it? It seems like yesterday he was 10 months old. I sometimes wonder if his biological mother ever thinks about him or is too lost in space to recall that he was even born. He is a cutie though and we are so blessed to have him.
I hope hubby gets to talk to him tomorrow on his special day. The little shirt he sent is in the dryer now so he will wear it tomorrow although it looks like a dress. I hope that Daddy is doing well because his little boy misses him so much too. MC is doing well today and has Monday off. We've yet to hit the Punchbowl and maybe this weekend would be a good time to do it. It's called the Arlington of the Pacific.
We got to talk to hubby today but he was distracted. We had to go to 1st command and that was a complete waste of time. I have to go back in July. I didn't feel like going in June. I got John new birthday presents because hubby was right the other one said three so he can get it next year. I think the pieces are too small and this one said 2-5. It's the same thing-THomas Train but it's a lego thing.
Well, till tomorrow then!

Well started at the gym today and it was rough!

Boy was I pooped today during that aqua aerobics class. I couldn't believe how rough it was. I am out of shape though but I am going to keep plugging thru though. Perhaps I'll sleep well tonight.
Boy, no money in my account, no class, what will I do? Hate to bug hubby about it though as he's got enough on his mind to worry about. I don't know what he does but I think it changes daily. I wish he was going to be home for his little son's birthday. Hopefully next year we will all be together celebrating at Fort Gordon, GA. Which would mean he would get his job switch or else it's back to Fort Lee, VA. Which was the only place I was able to get pregnant but I think I'm too old for that now. I didn't mind our little house there though. I didn't like teaching middle school though. The kids are weird at that age.
I think if Toby Keith ever comes anywhere we're at we should go see him. I like him and I hate the Twits. They want a cool fan base not those who like Toby Keith or Reba McEntire. Not sure what she did to them but I know Toby had a few words for the Twits last year.
Well, till tomorrow then and more aqua aerobics.

shouldn't have watched

So tonight there was nothing on tv and I made the mistake of watching Baghdad ER. It really upset me. I love my husband so much and miss him too. I just want him to come home. I really feel like half of me is just missing. I am strong but sometimes I am not. I wish I was stronger.

Bad manners at college graduations

I hate liberals, I really do and those punk kids and ivory tower profesors who heckle and disrupt college graduations. I hated that pinko that spoke at my first graduation but I behaved myself. It just goes to show you that liberals do a poor job of raising their children. I can see that by the smart alecky mouth on all these punks who have no manners. I hope that the next time there is an asshole of the order of any of these jock itch democrats that republicans will keep their manners. Although it does not matter to those on the left.
Well, hubby will be out of the loop for a few days. I did join the gym and will email him with the details. I can't find the disc he's looking for but I will keep looking. I am teaching some stupid class and can't believe it.

Sunday

Well I have made a decision if this women's exercise place isn't too outrageously expensive I think I'm going to sign up. They have children facilities for little bubba and I think we'll go by tomorrow after we mail hubby's latest care package. I have got to do something so I'll feel better. I haven't been exercising like I should since we got back really and I know I would feel better if I did.
Well, I worry about hubby's upcoming next few months until he comes home for R&R. I wish he was here now. I went to the commissary today and the clowns from the 25th ID were coming back from the NTC. I wish hubby was with them but I guess I need to look at it like he wouldn't be gone yet. He's been away from home now over 4 months and it seems like a thousand years but on the other hand it seems like 10,000 years. I am so tired and I have to take the garbage out. Little Bubba will be 2 on Saturday. It's hard to believe. I have to find that camera but I don't know where I hid it!
I also ordered a gift for my second cousin's wedding in Sept. I also sent flowers to my aunt who is in the hospital in VA. It doesn't look good. Looks like the Aged P's will be heading to "The Chocolate City" aka The Crescent City, aka New Orleans. I won't step foot in that city again until that racist mayor is out of office. Well, I guess I need to close. Till tomorrow then!

Hubby wondered why I thought he was mad?

I actually dont' remember but it was something at the time. I guess he missed my missive though on my other comments. I hope he won't have to go on some extended mission that he mentioned casually. I am worried though and I guess I can't help it. I hope that he gets to stay put but whatever I hope he stays safe.
Well, today took the kids to Chili's but then I spilled something on me so we couldn't run to Kmart to pick up a few items.
Well the Preakness was run today and there will be no Triple Crown. The horse that won the Derby got hurt. I hope that one day we can own a horse or two. I would love to own a horse and go riding.
Till tormorrow then.

Another one bites the dust

Well our wonderful son broke another dvd player. I am unsure about what to do with him. He thinks this is funny and he also likes to set off the alarm for the house and move furniture around. I really am at my wits end with him.
Hubby was mad at me today. What else is new?

It's only May 17

Well it's only May 17 and it seems like it's so long before he comes home for R & R and then he comes home for good. I wonder if he'll get to transfer to automation or not and if he'll make Major. He better get to do both. He had another mission and he said it was good. I haven't heard from him though anymore today. I guess he's just busy.
South Park was great again tonight-hippies and their stupidness (is that a word?)
I was very disappointed in W's speech Monday night. Why can't we send the illegals back? They broke the law and they'll be rewarded. If they have a pathway to citizenship it's amnesty pure and simple. Comprehensive immigration reform my ass. If I hear that one more time I'm going to scream. Here's an idea-make all those between the ages of 18-40 who are here illegally go into the military and they can have their own little new branch of service and then send them all to Iraq. If they come home they can become citizens. Or else have them build a wall and then send them home. Hasta La Vista baby!

So it's the Friday before Mother's Day and I diverge

Well, here we are and as of yet nothing from hubby who claims not to have had time to look for a gift or flowers for me for Mothers Day. Well, he had time to buy sheets, computer games and a trumpet for himself. I really sometimes wonder if he really loves me. I mean, he didn't even get me my own engagement ring. I had to wear the ones that were worn by the previous occupants. I mean, I think if I was on number 3 I'd get a new ring and see if that brought me anymore luck. I reluctantly got a new setting but that was only after he had gone out to "gamble" and lost money and took the camcorder to take pictures of women's boobs and butts. Wow, that made me really happy. Of course let's not forget that he was still communicating with the ex-wife while he was in Kosovo and listed her still as his "wife" on his Geico insurance. I really don't feel appreciated by him. It feels like he takes me for granted, which I guess he does. I do a lot for him and try to help him as much as possible. I also take great care of his beautiful children. However, while I've yet to open my Mother's Day card from him (perhaps there is a gift card in there) I haven't received anything yet. If there is no gift I will buy what I want for Mother's Day on Monday. It's as simple as that!

He had better been kidding.

Well, I asked Michael this morning if he sent me any flowers or a gift for mother's day and he went on about rockets red glare going into his base. He also went on to tell me he ordered a trumpet and couldn't wait for it to get there. It is certainly my contention that if he had time to order a trumpet he had time to order me a gift. I ordered his mother, who absolutely cannot stand me and I feel likewise some flowers because she has been ill this year. I also managed to order flowers for both his grandmothers. So to sum up I certainly hope he remembered me beyond a card for mother's day. I am tired I have been up all night with the Princess but . . . until tomorrow then.

A Princess goes in for surgery

Well, today little Miss had to have surgery on her eyes and ears. Some good news though---her PDA has closed aand she doesn't have to see the cardiologist anymore. YEA! She didn't have her regular ENT doc for the ear surgery. I really like her regular doctor better. She has to see Dr. Winkle tomorrow morning. She seems to be having a harder time tonight--bloody nose, crabby, etc. However, she is getting older now too. She has really nice doctors, Dr. Cable, Dr. Winkle, Dr. Kaelin. Dr. Kaelin helped to put her to sleep since has that as part of her residency. I was glad she was there for her.
Well, hubby is back at his home base. I don't quite know what it is he does. I guess one day I will learn it. JPM really misses his Daddy.
Well, until whenever then!
BTW South Park was funny again tonight

It's Friday

Well, it seems that since I can only use the computer in our son's room I have less time to keep up with this because I have a lot to say.
We haven't heard from hubby today but I know he is at another place and know he has to travel to get there. I do worry about that. I don't know how long he will be there or how far it is from his home base. I know that he's busy and somewhat upset by his work over there. I know he liked it at first but I think something happened and now he has a bad taste. I don't know, I may be wrong about that. I know he said he has to get some letter or something to me to Fedex to the board so he can change career paths. I also know the Major board is meeting now but I don't think it will be a positive outcome on this. He's gotten totally screwed by the people who do is OERs out here.
till whenever then

It's now May

Well it's May. I am hoping that the year continues to go on it's fast track. It's hard to believe but the little man will be 2 at the end of the month. I've also been trying to get sick but have been fighting it. However, I think I'm beginning to lose the battle. I feel terrible and I know I am so crabby. I had to pick up MC from school yesterday and took her up to Schofield for an appt. because she's sick and John has the sniffles and coughing too. Michael said he's getting fat which I can't see but he says the food is really good. I am glad that he's enjoying that part. For whatever reason his "safe" mission took fire. I guess he gets some type of badge which he was happy about. He said he had good news and bad news--I asked for the bad news first-he got shot at, good-the armour worked. Yea!!!! I thank God for that. Not sure what he's doing over there but it's not what I thought it would be based on his designation. Right now the board is meeting and deciding whether or not he will make Major on his first go around. He also has another thing coming up this month about moving out of his current designation to another one that he likes. I hope that he's sleeping well as it's almost 6 a.m. on Weds. over there. I really miss having him here. I am lonely without him and the kids really miss him too.
Till tomorrow then.
