Tails to Toddlerhood

Mommy....she just got out of bed!

2010-08-17T22:16:00.003-04:00

Why do kids have to tattle?? Really?? Drives me insane! Like they need help getting into trouble...but they still come out and tattle. I can hear them laughing, but as soon as something happens Madison will tell on Makayla. Never fails.

Today was a good day with the kids for the most part. They started to not listen to me around dinner time. Go figure. Other than that I was having an off day...feelings of abandonment and such because the only 2 friends I have managed to make are busy, which doesn't bother me at all. I'm use to being alone, they both did it at about the same time. I will get over it and move on. Hopefully make a new friend or something I don't know.

One just found out she is pregnant and has been hanging out with another of the wives. The other's hubby came home from training and they are going to have a baby in October. It sucks being the older person and having 2 kids. It's not as easy to go do things. I really wish I had someone that I could send the girls to for the weekend. I really miss that option. I never used it much, but when I did it helped...and right now all I want to do is cry. :(

I'm going to go soon and register them with the Child Youth Services. I will get 16 hours of free child care, but can only take it in 4 hour blocks. Plus they have hourly that's $2 an hour per child. Along with sports that Maddie can do. I just really miss Jeremy. I hate the nights. It's never bad during the day but at night...it really sucks.

I finally got my donut of misery to work! We are 7% done...have a long long way to go...Please let November get here soon! I really want to go home. I miss my mom!

Sucky day.

2010-08-17T00:21:00.005-04:00

Madison's first day of school was today. I can not believe my baby is in Kindergarten...makes me wonder how my own mom feels with a 26 year old baby and 2 grandkids. Maddie loved it though. We got there late because of traffic and I had to walk her in and didn't get a kiss or hug bye again. Hopefully she continues to enjoy school. Makayla cried when we walked out of school, she wanted sissy.

Today was a day that I really missed Jeremy. I wish he could have been here her first day of school. He missed preK last year too. I'm not looking forwards to the holidays this year again, since he wasn't around at Thanksgiving last year either, or our anniversary. 2 years in a row missing major things sucks. But, we will survive. I'm trying to stay stronger this time than I was the last time. I know I will have my down days, but I'm doing everything I can to make sure I have up days. This deployment WILL NOT GET ME DOWN!

The kids were into everything imaginable today. Rice, bread crumbs, laundry soap, cat food, TV trays...you name it they were into it. They did a terrible job of listening to me too. I wish I had family here to help me with them. I feel bad asking the few (2) friends that I have made to take the girls off my hands. They have their own things going on. One's husband is deployed with mine and found out that she is pregnant, and the other one is going to have a baby in 2 months.

Things will get better. Once the school routine sets in....It has to get better right? Plus it will all start going by faster. He's been gone almost a month (which I can't believe it's been that long already) and in November we will go home for a month and a half...then a few months later he will hopefully be able to take R&R...then the deployment will be done. They say the second half goes by faster than the first half. I hope it's true.

My plan for tomorrow is to work out and get the house cleaned. I might run my shampooer to the repair shop to get the cord fixed so I can shampoo the carpet...it really needs it! It's driving me insane, all these little spots and stains on the carpet from a dog, cat, my 2 kids and the 3 that I baby sit. UGH!

Well I'm off to bed! Tomorrow is a new day and WILL BE BETTER THAN TODAY!!!

Loving my Soldier!!

2010-08-16T00:07:00.002-04:00

HE GOT PROMOTED TODAY!!! YIPPIE!!!!!

I am so proud of him. Words will never ever describe just how my heart feels at this moment. It could just burst with love for my soldier. I miss him so much! I wish I could have been there to watch him get pinned. Would have been great, but one day I know I will be able to.

I know I complain about him being gone, or whatever...but there are some people that do nothing BUT complain. OMG. I liked a page on facebook and it's nothing but depressing things. Complaining about things that is COMMON sense. Things that EVERYONE knows before they join the Army. It just drives me insane the things they find to moan and groan about. Especially the people that their husbands are going to be gone a week or 2. HOLY COW. I would take a week or two every other 2 weeks than a year straight.

But see...I knew this was a possibility, I KNEW what we were signing up for. I knew it would be difficult, I knew there would be times where we were separated. In this day of age, how can you go into this SO blind. There are a million websites out there with people talking about the life they are in. There are so many people you can talk to and find out what they have gone through. Seriously?

Sorry, it just drives me insane. People really need to get a clue.

Ok, done with that. Maddie starts school tomorrow! My baby is getting so big. :( I bought her pants and shirts from the GIRLS section at the store...not the baby section. :( But her outfit she has picked out is so cute. Will post pictures...even though I don't think anyone reads this. LOL.

Wow, lots have changed...

2010-08-15T02:41:00.002-04:00

Well, it's been about three months since I posted last. Where to start.

We have a nice house and are all settled in! :)

About a month ago my hubby deployed... :( Sucks. As of August 3rd he's been in for a year! But, of that year we have only been together for 5 months :( Really stinks, but we knew this is something that we would have to deal with. We were as prepared for the lack of time as we possibly could have been. I made sure after his 6 months of BCT and AIT that I kept my mind set as him not being there to do things for me. That way when he left it wasn't a total "OMG he's gone and I have no one to do such and such".

So far this has been a crappy time. I baby sit the devils spawn...the oldest boy decided to take a lighter and burn things in my daughters' room (that was week 1) then today he decided to play with a gas can I had out. I mowed the lawn and when I came back out I seen wet spots on the ground and on the rubber piece on the back on the mower.

Not to mention both girls are pushing me! Yesterday Maddie was AMAZING. She has been doing laundry for a few days (even washes only 5 things because she can't find anything else...I told her to wait until it's full), then she decided to clean the litter box, take the trash bag out of the trash can and put it by the door, and she also moved the dog cage and swept up the spilled dog food. But today....OMG. Terrible! Like worse than ever type of terrible. I baby sat and none of the 5 kids would listen, then after they left MY kids still wouldn't listen. Keep getting into things that they KNOW they shouldn't. UGH!!!

Hopefully tomorrow will be better. I really need to start a journal of all the GOOD things that happen during the day. That way I can look back and go "It wasn't ALL bad"...Maybe tomorrow I will.

I also am trying to lose weight. I'm eating better (less junk and more healthy snacks), and doing more "exercises" than I normally did. Hopefully I will start seeing something soon. Would be great to be at my goal weight when he comes home for R&R.

Can not wait until he comes home! Miss him SO much! He is my soul mate, my world, the love of my life! Being away from him and not being able to see him is KILLING ME. I have seen him on Skype 3 times since he's left! UGH! :(

Update from Colorado!

2010-05-20T11:49:00.004-04:00

Well, I have been MIA for a while here. Lets see....Moved to Colorado Springs and have been getting settled and everything.

I love it here! OMG it is SO beautiful! You can see the mountains right out our front door! We are at the foot of the NORDAC mountain. I'm wondering why I didn't want to move sooner! Guess all things happen when they do for a reason. If we would have moved when Jeremy wanted to I probably wouldn't have been ready for it.

We have been to a bunch of the tourist places here. Garden of The Gods, Cheyenne Mountain Zoo (have a zoo pass), Cave of the Winds, Seven Falls, Manitou Cliff Dwellings. It's been fun. There are a few more places that we want to go to.

The girls are liking it here too. We have a fenced in back yard and they can go out and play when it's nice out and I don't have to be out there. Which when the cold weather hits it sucks for me because they are cooped up in the house driving me insane!

Maddie had an awesome birthday party a few weeks ago. We had a cook out with some people in the platoon so the wives could get to know each other. I met a few people that might be nice to hang out with.

I've been "looking" at jobs in the area. It would be GREAT if I could get an at home type job that didn't require selling things or making phone calls (or taking phone calls). So far everything I have seen wants you to pay them...Ummm I don't think so. I'm not going to PAY YOU in order to make money (unless it's a cheap price and it's a 100% legit company). Would be nice to have the extra money and not have to leave the girls for 8 hours a day.

I'm going to have to get busy cleaning the house. Jeremy's grandparents are coming out here at the end of June. That means I will AGAIN have to clean out "Jeremy's room" since he let his bags blow up in there after he got home. Ugh. I had it clean once.

I have a ton of projects I want to work on too...I have some stuff to start a purse out of ACU pants. Plus an apron for Maddie...but my sewing machine is in that room...I can't get to it lol.

Well I'm off...watching a movie and straightening up a bit. Fun fun fun.

Slacking yet again..

2009-10-27T18:24:00.005-04:00

Wow, so graduation was so amazing. I am so very very proud of my husband!! I was always proud of him, but now that he's officially an American Soldier...my pride is indescribable. His platoon won honors platoon, and his platoon leader got an award. It was so amazing to see him. He looks SO good. Lost a lot of weight! The Army has done him well so far.

It was nice to get to spend time with him, but it was way to short. He was gone 10 weeks and we got to see him for 4 days. Time went by WAY to fast.

On graduation day we found out that his MOS changed(rumors were going around about it). He is now 13 tango...he has yet to start AIT (which when he was 13s it was supposed to start Oct 19th). Now it is 10 weeks long instead of the 7 it use to be. Luckily he will be able to come home for Christmas! A whole 2 weeks!!! I will be going out to get him Dec 18th (I will probably leave the 17th) and we will be coming home. He wants me to go get him instead of flying him home. I have no problems with that. I just have to change the brakes, get the oil changed, and get 2 new tires. No problem...

I'm just so excited to see him again. I miss him so much. Thankfully in AIT they can talk everyday on the phone. We also got him a lap top that as soon as we get paid he can set up the internet and we can have video chats. Last weekend he got to use one of his room mates internet. It was very nice of him! I appreciate it and I know he did because he was having a hard time last weekend. He was use to being so busy he couldn't think, and just got let loose in AIT.

I can't wait to find out where we will be getting stationed. I'm ready for a new location, new people, new everything. I'm also ready for him to come home!!

It's ON!!

2009-10-01T03:18:00.001-04:00

He passed his PT test!! WOOHOO!!!

Graduation is ON! YEY!!

I knew he could do it. I am so proud of him! He is such and amazing husband! I can not wait to see him!

2 WEEKS!!!!!!!

I love my husband :)

2009-09-24T15:16:00.002-04:00

I was having a really bad day and wrote him a depressing letter on how bad it's been. The next day I apologised to him because he dosen't need to hear that from me right now.

Today I got his letter he wrote about it. He told me that I'm such a strong person, and that he is so proud to call me his wife.

I SO totally needed to hear that. It makes me feel like I can do this and that everything is going to be ok. Man oh man do I love him...I can't wait to see him. 3 weeks!! YEY! 21 days!! Only 19 until I leave to go to Oklahoma. I'm so excited!!

I got Mak a little potty today. We went and she picked her own out. Yesterday she came to me with a diaper, when I went to change her she had just started to poop. I asked her if she wanted to go set on the potty and she ran to the bathroom. She freaked out when I put the potty seat on the big potty. So, we got her a little one. Got home and I set it up for her. She sat on it clothed and when I went to chang her for her nap I asked if she wanted to set on it. She did, but didn't do anything. So I went to put her diaper back on and she threw a FIT. I put her back on it and she sat there. She finally went pee in it!! I was so happy. She looked at the potty then at me and she closed the lid and ran off...I went to her room to put her diaper on and she had pooped on the floor LOL.

Well both kids are sleeping. I should get some work done. I'm tired though, so I don't know what I'll do. LOL.

Getting closer and closer to Oklahoma time!!!

2009-09-20T17:21:00.003-04:00

So, last week was a bad week. I did fine during the day, but at night I'd lose it. The girls have been at each others throats! Hopefully this week will be better!

I got to see a picture of Jeremy coming out of the gas chamber. He didn't look like he had too much fun in there. LOL. I know I wouldn't! I also seen his bunk mate, he was in front of him in the picture. Yesterday when I talked to him (for over 2 hours!!) I asked if I was going to get to meet any of the guys in his platoon. I guess his bunk mates wife wants us all to go out to dinner. That is kinda cool.

I also found out what Maddie wants to be for Halloween. Pirate! LOL. I thought that was cool, but now think it's even cooler because 4th platoon (Jeremy's platoon) are the Raiders...and their mascot thing is a Pirate!! That made it even cooler and Jeremy is very happy. He even told his bunk mate and I heard him say "That's F*cking awesome!!" :)

3 weeks and 4 day's until we get to see him. I'm so excited!! He told me yesterday that his graduation day they are doing a battery run. It's a 6 mile run (they wake up every morning and the whole battery (221 guys) runs) and family is invited to join them on their last run. Of course Jeremy asked if I was going to do it and I laughed. He said "You probably wouldn't even get out of bed at 4:30 to do it" so now I'm on a mission. I'm going to start running, and I'll prove to him that I CAN get up that early. Now weather or not I make it through the 6 miles or not is another story. I will be bequeathing my assets just in case I don't make it. LOL.

Well, I should get the kids fed and ready for bed. We are going to MEPS tomorrow to see my sis off. She is leaving for BCT also. Now that everyone that's helped me through this is gone I don't know what I'm going to do. She's listened to me cry on the phone...I'll figure something out though :)

Bad day

2009-09-16T22:36:00.002-04:00

Most the day was ok. But right now it all seems bad. I miss Jer SO much right now. I feel heart broken...All I want to do is cry.

I got to see a picture of him from a few weeks ago...that might be why I'm like this. I just want this to be over with!!

I can't sleep at night...I just lay there for hours! OMG. This is taking forever!

Can you say "CLEANING"?

2009-09-15T11:49:00.002-04:00

That's what I have been doing. It feels like that's all I have been doing. Yesterday I was in there cleaning my room...the youngest comes in "wha doin?" I said, "cleaning" she goes "why?" "because mommy needs to clean her room" "why" "it's dirty" "why"....On and on with "WHY?" already! She's only 1 1/2! UGH.

But, you can see my floor now :D and pretty much my dresser. I even cleaned out the closet. I just have to go through and get rid of clothes now. That will take forever! I just want to get stuff ready for us to move now, that way when DH gets home I won't have to do any of that when I could be spending time with him. He says that I'm not leaving his side once he gets home. I said something about going to a spa and leaving him with the girls and he said no, we are going to both go get full body massages...ugh. There goes my spa day!

I can not wait until he gets home! Things should start going by even faster once his graduation gets here. We will be in Oklahoma for his graduation the 16th. I will be home for 2 weeks then on my way to Texas and Oklahoma. Then home for 2 weeks and on my way to South Carolina and then Oklahoma. That will be my last trip to Oklahoma unless they station us there.

I hate not knowing where we are going! It sucks so bad! Then I find out there is a rumor going around that they are taking his MOS and another MOS and making a new MOS...if that happens he won't start AIT for 2 months after he graduates. UGH!! That would suck only if he has to stay there and we have to stay here. If he can come home in between that then it would be ok. But I couldn't take 2 more months of this crap! I miss almost everything about him...everything but the farting. I could do with out that!

Well I should get off here. I have more cleaning to do...I need to find a way to get rid of fleas too. They are all over in the house. UGH!

I love my family!

2009-08-29T23:00:00.003-04:00

Well today was a good day. The girls were really good. We went to my grandparents house and had a family get together. My great aunt and uncle came from the west coast and I had never met them before. Some of my family think that my Great Grandma was hanging on in hopes that they would make it out here and that now that they came out she will let go. So it might not be to long, which is sad to think about. She's lived a full life though. Makes me sad to think about leaving now...

My grandparents live at the lake but today it wasn't warm enough to go swimming. Well, Mak was the one to get into the water anyway. LOL. She got in up to her knees then Maddie noticed and went in after her...so both my kids were wet. Go figure. Other than they they were great! I wish we had more days like this.

I need to find activities that we could do to keep them busy or something that way they are not just driving me crazy. I'm sure I can come up with something. Plus with school starting she should be busy. Plus we will get time apart during the week.

I think the time apart will make Jeremy and I a lot closer. He's started to apologise for the way he's treated me (which wasn't bad all the time) and for not helping me out more around the house and with the girls. He says that when he gets home he will prove how sorry he is. I told him I'm keeping all the letters as proof and will hold him to it. LOL.

1 month 16 days until I get to see him! I'm excited! I can't wait to see him. I miss him so much!

Happenings and what not...

2009-08-28T22:31:00.004-04:00

Ok, so here I am trying to blog again. There has been so much that has happened that I don't know where to start.

Jeremy left August 3rd. It's been hard on both of us. He misses the girls and I. We miss him. Maddie has adjusted better than I thought she would actually. I thought it would be crying and "I want daddy" every day. It's only been a few times, and she really wants him when she's getting into trouble. Mak, she never asks for him. One day last week I heard her saying "dad dad dad" and looked and she was walking around carrying one of his shirts. It was a heart breaking moment.

Me, well I'm doing the best I can. I'm strong for the girls during the day, but at night it's real hard. Some nights I cry and can't stop, but it's not sobbing hysterically it's just crying. We have never been away from each other for this long, or this far away. It's really hard being here with everything screaming "Jeremy". It's just going to take a while to get use to. I'm sure I will soon.

Maddie starts school the 9th. That should help the time go by fast. She will be in 3 day's this year, she's excited.

Mak is in her terrible 2's already. Every time I tell her to do something she says "no". UGH. I don't know what to do to get her to stop.

We were supposed to go to the Zoo tomorrow, but it's supposed to rain. Plus my aunt and uncle are coming in from the west coast to see my Great Grandma. She's not doing so well and a few people think that she was holding on just to see them again. I would rather go to the get together than the Zoo...it will always be there and I don't remember the last time I seen them.

I'm trying to lose weight before I go to Oklahoma to see Jeremy. He's going to lose so much during BCT he will look so different. I want to "change" and surprise him. LOL. I'm down almost 10 pounds...I have actually started working out the past few days. Hopefully I can keep it up. It's hard with no one to push me to do it. So far doing it at night is easier when both kids are in bed. We will see how this goes.

Well there is a run down of the past few months...

Lots of goings on.

2009-05-04T16:58:00.003-04:00

So far our minds have been changed about a million times. Texas, Georgia, Texas, North Carolina...omg. Plus, I have had panic attacks a lot too. It is so hard to "go with the flow" when your not the type of person that does that sort of thing.

Jeremy is doing Future Soilder training on Thursdays. Trying to go for his PFC before he goes to basic. That will be great!

I'm thinking about visiting my friend in Texas, just to see what it's like living on base. Might do that while he is gone...Would work out great if I could do it right before his graduation, then I wouldn't have a big drive from there to Oklahoma. But, my aunt is driving with me to graduation. Apparently I can't do it alone...Problem is, if Jeremy get's a weekend pass he won't have to be back on base until 6pm on Sunday evening, and she wants to be back to work on Monday. I don't want to miss a WHOLE day with him just to get her back to work. Ugh. I guess it will get figured out sooner or later.

I'm so ready to get out of here. Away from certain people *cough*MIL*cough*. She is driving me crazy. Every little thing she does anymore...but whatever. Hopefully even if we are in Texas and she moves to Texas she will be 3 hours away...won't have to see her that often. North Carolina would be great because she wouldn't go there. I'm mean I know...

The girls are doing good, Maddie had a field trip to the zoo. It was fun. We got to all go as a family for really cheap, and walk around by ourselves. They have another field trip coming up, but I didn't get a permission slip for, will have to get that and turn it in tomorrow, since that's the day they want them back.

Well, that's all for now. Off to cook dinner.

On my way to a new life

2009-04-19T21:53:00.003-04:00

On March 2nd my husband came home from school and told me he wanted to go talk to a recruiter and join the Air Force. At first I was upset because it sounded like he had just decided this is what was going to happen and not talk to me about it. That wasn't the case, he wanted to come to me with all the information he could before we talked about it, the only way to do that was to go talk to a recruiter. He didn't want to do that behind my back.

We went in a few days later and talked to someone, and found out that with all the waivers he needed it was next to impossible to join the Air Force. So, we went and talked to the Army. It took me a while to get over the fact that I would be taking my girls away from their family, but, we will have a better life.

For the next few weeks we had been going in and Jeremy had been getting taped and weighed. Finally he had gotten down to the body fat % they wanted him to get to. On Monday he went down to Indy and did the Arms test. He passed that and qualified to join. So Wednesday we went in and he picked his job. He will be a Field Artillery Surveyor. The job came with an $18,000 sign on bonus. Also since he's gotten 24+ collage credits he will get a pay raise ($750 a month) plus he will get $3,000 extra on his bonus.

So, Thursday he went back to Indy. He swore in on Friday at noon. I went down and watched him. Took pictures so I can start the Army photo album that my FIL and his wife gave us.

According to the job print out, he goes to basic training on August 3rd. Will be there until October 16th, that's graduation. They have a visitors day just before graduation that I'm going to try my hardest to go to. Then he will stay at Fort Sill in Oaklahoma until December 8th doing his advanced individual training. After his AIT we will find out where we will get stationed. According to 1st Sgt, he will be home for Christmas. Hopefully we can spend it here.

For now, that is all that I know. I will be using this blog a lot. A way to keep a log of my new life as an army wife.

Here we go...

2008-12-15T12:31:00.003-05:00

So I am back online at home YEY!

Maddie had her Christmas program last night. It was so cute and she did such a good job, I am so proud of her. Right now she is trying to shove her sister in a box.

I finally got my Pampered Chef kit, so I'm a consultant now. YEY. Had my first 2 shows this weekend. Did pretty good, minimal injury to myself. Only cut myself once, so pretty good odds so far. I lost one host that I was banking on having lots of her teacher friends there, so I'm not getting the bookings that I need. I can only use my family so much. I have one booked for Jan (my cousin) and another lady wants to do one in April. I'm fine with that, but I would rather book my next few months THEN start doing further into the year. I'm thinking that my other aunt's show will just be a book show. She does not have many friends, and the only people that I will be inviting would be family that has already been to shows plus will be going to my grandmas show. Sucks.

We have one friend up for the holidays, been spending time with him. My cousin is here from California, just found out about it yesterday. This is going to suck. They decided to move our Christmas Eve get together to Christmas Day. That's when we normally went to his grandparents. So now I don't know what's going on. I gave up Thanksgiving at my family's that we always do to go to someones house that we don't know (in his family) and now I won't get to do Christmas with my family because he's a big baby and if he does not get his way he cries about it.

Well I'm going to try to get back into the swing of things...wordless Wednesdays and such. Hopefully I'll be making money!

Trick or Treat

2008-11-01T14:35:00.004-04:00

Here are the girls costumes. I made Maddies and it turned out good enough that she won 1st place in the costume contest. I was very proud! She got $5, which is more than what her costume cost!

Making halloween costumes

2008-10-27T14:11:00.002-04:00

I'm actually having more fun than I thought I would be having doing this. My aunt got the idea in my head to do a "theme" with the girls. I already had the one costume (reusing the first one that Maddie wore her first Halloween for Mak) but the other one, I couldn't find it anywhere, so I'm making it. You really think I'm going to tell you what it is? Please...You have to wait until I'm done and get the girls pictures together :D I know I'm mean like that. HEHE.

Long time and lots of happenings

2008-10-24T12:25:00.002-04:00

I know it's been a while since I have been able to post anything. Sorry. I don't have the Internet at home and things are not going so well. We are trying to float, but seem like all we are doing is drowning.

The girls are doing great. Mak is starting to walk! She has 4 teeth, and is starting to bite...only me though. *roll eyes* Maddie is going to school and LOVES it. She went on a field trip yesterday that I totally forgot about. We were late getting to school and they reminded me by telling me that they all left like 10 minutes before. I had to rush home, get dressed, grab Mak's stuff, run her to grandmas, then go to the Pumpkin Patch. OMG. I felt horrible! I kept apologizing to Maddie. We made it for snacks and a story and the hay ride to pick out our pumpkins. Then they got to play on the playground. She had fun. She's too smart for her own good if you ask me.

I'm going to start selling Pampered Chef, hopefully that will help us get ahead. I am excited about it. I'm just hoping that I will be able to get shows booked, so cross your fingers!

Well there is my little update. Sorry it's not more. I'm working on getting the Internet back at home. I miss it! But there are more important things that need taken care of first.

New Shoes?

There are million thing that I would love to have! However, money prevents me from obtaining them at this moment.

I would *LOVE* a fabulous new purse, that top that fits just perfectly on my extra baby fat belly, new pants that make my ass look like it came from a supermodels body...most importantly SHOES. I love shoes. These are my favorite pair of shoes...I love these shoes. I got them Mothers Day weekend. I even let my 3 year old clomp around in them (occasionally) and SHE loves them. They make me feel sexy! If you don't have a pair of shoes that makes you feel sexy, your missing out. You REALLY need to find a pair.

While reading some blogs I came across one that said there was a giveaway at this other blog. Well I just had to check it out and guess what they are giving away...That's right...SHOES!! You heard read me right, they are giving a way a pair of shoes! Go fast, check it out, I'll wait! Classy Shoes Giveaway!!!

I would love a pair of these...she was dusting the house in them, they gotta be comfy! If I don't win, I'll have to save my pennies!

OMG! I so am not touching my blog ever again! I'm happy with pink and black, and with the way it looks!

Thank you SO much to Lisa ( www.diaperstodating.blogspot.com ) for getting my banner up, and making my page look less smooshed. Your a doll!

We (Lisa and I because she was getting all goofy eyed looking at my HTML code, that she told me what to look for) couldn't figure out how to get the signature that Alisha (www.really-seriouslythough.blogspot.com/) made for me on the blog. Some how the thing just wasn't there. So, after looking all day yesterday, I decided that it wasn't that important. Well today I looked again, still wasn't there. There was one just slightly different than the one that we were looking for. I put my HTML knowledge from my web page I made to use...and walla I have a siggy!! YEY!

I'm still waiting on word from Lisa that I didn't screw anything up. Also, I'm not so sure I like the white behind the pink...it doesn't look right. I think if at all possible I would like it black, that way all you see is my name in pink. IDK tho. If it's to difficult, I'll leave it. I have caused enough headaches in the past day or 2....

I hate that all my friends live in different states. I can't really bake a cake and send to Lisa to thank her (since cakes are my thing now...). It wouldn't make shipping in one peice...unless...hmmm..I could put it on dry ice...*pondering* I might just have to try this once....just to see if it makes it and is in one piece...and still tastes like cake after it thaws....hmm...

How much is dry ice? Where do you get it? I'm serious about trying this...What would I need? Dry Ice, Cake, Box for cake, Bigger styrofoam box for cake and dry ice, something to keep dry ice off box cake is in...what else? (this might have to wait until I have extra money...)

If you have any extra ideas send them my way!
