We're Moving

To Florida. Excuse why I go throw up now. NO, not because I don't want to move to FL but I'm terrified of change. The move is about a month away and already the anxiety is KILLING me. Where are we going to live, where will the kids go to school, where will we work, where will we go to school, can we survive financially in florida???? I'm absoultely terrified. Petrified. But that is where Jer wants to go, his family lives mostly in florida, so thats where we are going. It's a good time I think...the kids are just starting school so its not like they have to change schools. The weather down there is absolutely amazing and we plan on getting season tickets to either disney world or busch gardens and the kids will love that. On top of all that there is a lot more culture down in florida...there are museums and outdoor concerts, aquariums, art shows...I'm sure there is more that I don't even know about. Even though I can see all the positives I'm still FREAKING out. I think I may go hide in my closet until moving day gets here!

Anyone who lives in florida or who has lived in florida tell me why you LOVE it!!!!

Hi, My Name Is Jaime,

And I'm Uninsured. And I'm Pissed! I don't care that he got fired damnit!!! I just want my health insurance back! Kids can be covered by the state and hubs can be covered by the VA but lil' 'ole me is SCREWED. NO INSURANCE AND I TAKE LIKE 10 MEDS.A.DAY! What am I going to do??? Ughhhh.

In other news, I went for a second walk today and I feel wonderful. I walked in flip flops too, lol. Don't worry I won't be doing that again. But I HATE wearing real shoes...I'm a member of the year round flip flop club. Yes folks, even when its snowing I've got my flops on! But from now on I will grudgingly don my tennis shoes before I walk...*sigh*...I better lose at least 20 lbs doing this!!!!

Fired

This sucks!

Life Change!

I have decided to lose 20 lbs as quickly as possible! I don't know how many times I've promised myself that I would get up and go walking or get up and go to the gym and I never do it. Last night was different...I made no promises to myself. But this morning I got up, planted my farm on farm town (the most addicting game ever I swear) and then decided to go for a walk. I put Spence in his stroller and put Murphy on his leash and off we went! We were only gone about 20 minutes BUT those 20 minutes kicked my butt...it's mostly up hill I swear! And now, I feel great! I always do after I work out.

AND I'm going to try to quit smoking AGAIN AND cut waaaay down on the booze AGAIN. Sigh...I just don't know what my life will be like without the nicoine and booze BUT I'll be a hell of a lot richer I'm sure!

And all that extra money will help in hubs does in fact get fired today. He will find out at 11am...so like an hour and a half. I'm nervous but I know that we'll make it through whatever happens!

Hope everyone had a great fourth! I had a REALLY loooonnnng weekend...I'll post about it later!

Busy Around Here Lately

I haven't been posting much but we've been crazy busy....

1. We put our house on the market. Fingers crossed it sells quickly. And no, not because we are trying to buy another house or anything like that...I need it to sell quickly because do you know how hard it is to keep a house SHOW ready with 3 kids, 2 dogs, 2 cats, AND a husband. DANG HARD!

2. We've spent the past two weekends at my mom's which is an hour and a half away. She has a huge pool and my kids have taken to swimming like white on rice.

3. T-ball has ended thank GOD. I love watching him play but it is sooo dang hot! And Spencer is always all over the place so I spend half the game chasing after him. Last game he made it onto the field and was playing with bats WHILE a batter was hitting before I noticed..Bad Mommy Moment. It scared the shit out of me.

4. We are trying to buy a new Surburban and we can't find one that we LOVE and that eats up a lot of our time.

5. My MIL and her husband came to visit us for a few days and we were going going going the ENTIRE time they were here!

Summer is just busy busy busy! We are packing up to head to my moms again and to the lake for 4 days. Next weekend Jer has Drill so we will probably head back to my moms AGAIN lol.

Bad news is Jer may be getting fired. Shitty shitty news. He got called in on Sunday night at 2am to go do some emergency surgery. He has to be there w/in 30 minutes. We were an hour and a half away and didn't have a clue that he was on call. So, its considered a no-show which is grounds for termination. He went to work on Tuesday and was called into the bigWigs office and placed on a 3 day suspension. We are praying that they don't fire him but he says he is 99% sure he is fired.

I don't understand why they would suspend him for 3 days if they planned on firing him all along...why not just fire him. Oh well I guess we'll find out next monday....everyone keep your fingers crossed!
Grammy came to visit and wore the Big Kids OUT!!!
