Goldfish

Wednesday was a crazy day! Did I tell you that laundry man took over my bed? And I had to sleep on the couch? Yeah, pathetic, but true :) And I didn't sleep well. So I was awake when the kids woke up, and helped everyone get ready.

Captain America Skyped me, and I chatted in between getting kids ready and on the bus and out the door. And I talked up until the LAST possible moment. Then had the SUPER rush to get to Exercise group on time. I was picking up Laurie and Rowan, and Kari.

I grabbed 2 socks (matching not necessary), my tennis shoes, some yogurt and a spoon, and apple, and an empty 64 oz Howdys cup, my purse, the keys, my phone, and Jim (no shoes), and headed out.

First stop, pick up Laurie and Rowan. Then Kari. Then off post and off to exercise group we went. And we did Turbo Jam. And I suck at Turbo Jam. hehe. But I did it. I'm sure it looked funny, but I did it.

And I drank my 64 oz Howdys cup filled with water. So as my reward, I stopped at Howdys and got a DDP. Aaaaa, so good! Of course, then I needed to pee. ha! I dropped everyone off at their houses, and FLEW home to pee - ha!

And had about 35 minutes until Jim needed to leave for the bus. So I cleaned. I think it was the DDP. hehe. And the exercise. I got the dishes done, and the floor swept, and a little bit of the living room picked up. You know, having no kids in the middle of the day keeps my house SO much more clean. And I'm liking it! See, I always knew I would have had a clean house if it wasn't for them durn kids! hehe :)

And they're doing construction in my neighborhood. Jim thought it was cool, though...

Me and My DDP. I got Jim on the bus, and waited for Kari to come and pick me up :)
Since the roads were all jacked up because of construction, the bus TOTALLY had to drive over the curb to turn around. I bet the bus driver dude will be pleased when construction gets done.

Kari and I loaded up in her car, and headed out to yoga. ALL the way over at Soto Gym. A good 15-20 minutes away. We were a little bit late, but we snuck in quietly, so it was all good.

I've missed yoga. It makes me feel SO good. I've noticed that exercise videos make my neck/shoulders SUPER tight and tense. And yoga reverses a lot of that. Thanks, yoga! I've missed you!

We drove back to post, she dropped me off at my house, and I came inside for lunch. I made myself the melted cheese sandwich, and RIGHT as I took the first big bite, Andrea called. hehe. We ended up chatting for about 30 minutes, and then she let me go so that I could "dispose" of Laundry man. And yeah, it took the rest of the time that Jim was gone. Because it was SO trashed.

I made different piles for different stuff. Sorted out Jim and Eme and Joe's clothes, and my clothes, and donate clothes, and trash clothes/stuff, and folded and put away stuff. And changed my sheets and blankets and such. I took my Christmas Quilt and turned it over, because it was White on the other side. I really need a "Spring" quilt. Anyone wanna make me one for Elegant WordArt by Bethany store credit? Something with happy, springy colors :) I have Summer one, a Fall one, and a Winter one....

Anyway, here's me taking a break for a minute.

And my clean bed. Yeah, it looks pitiful. I SO need a new quilt - ha!
And after I was done, I still had 35 minutes before I had to get Jim from the bus, so I watched part of an episode of Fringe.
And went to pick him up. And just barely made it before the bus got there. And we headed back home. Boxer is SO loving coming with me to get Jim to/from the bus. I feel sorry that he has to stay in the Kennel when I go out, but what other choice do I have? I didn't know Jake was gonna go back to public school when we got the dog.

Jim and I had about 30 minutes before Jake got home. Then we had about 30 minutes before Tom and Eme and Joe got home. And it was clean the house day. Luckily, it was pretty clean from the day before. Sweet! I love it when a plan comes together.

And, my flowers were starting to open up, so I just HAD to take more pics :)





I helped the kids out a lot with their chores today. I'd done the dishes already, so it didn't take long to get those done. I swept the kitchen, and the living room, and the dining room, and left the stuff in piles. So all the kids had to do was to separate the trash/dirt from the good stuff, put the good stuff away, and clean up the pile. SUPER easy.

And I even came back and mopped with the Shark. So it was looking pretty good. Eme got done first, had no homework, so went over to play at her friend, Estephanie's, house. And I had her take the phone so that I could call her when it was time to come home.

Jim and Joe finished up what they were doing, and went out in the front yard to play with the neighborhood kids. I can't remember what Jake and Tom did, but they were both in pretty good moods.

I reheated leftovers from last night, and fed those to the kids again. And I made myself my steamed veggies and turkey burger. It was pretty good. I really wanted to sit down and design, but I didn't have time. I needed to get kids ready for Scouts.

Jake ALWAYS fights against putting on his uniform and going to Scouts. He explained a little bit further tonight, and said that the MAIN problem he had with Scouts was the uniform. It was SO uncomfortable for him. I knew that Captain America had an old Red BSA polo shirt, so I asked Jake if he would like to wear that instead? I made a deal with him, that IF he could stop complaining about Scouts, and going, and doing, then he could wear the Red polo shirt. BUT, if there were complains, then he'd have to wear the regular uniform the next week. He liked the deal :)

We all loaded up in the truck, and headed off post to church. I popped my head in real fast to talk with the Scout leaders, and let them know the deal that I'd made with Jake (and make sure that they knew that he was Autistic), and they said that would be fine.

AND that they were going on a campout this Fri/Sat. And could Jake go. Hmmm, the last few times he's been without his dad, he's gotten hurt. He requires more supervision that most kids. So I voiced my concern, and the leader guy said that he'd personally watch Jake, and make sure he was safe. OK, sounded good to me. And Jake even thought it sounded like fun! Awesome!

So Friday night at 5:00pm, I drop Jake off at the church for his campout. They're coming back around noon on Saturday. So it's a short campout, but should be a good time :)

Tom stayed for 11 year old Scouts, and the little kids and I took off for Carls Jr. I ordered a burger for Eme (because I'd picked her up at her friends house, and she hadn't had dinner), and a biggie soda for me.

And yeah, there MUST have been something wrong with the DDP...

It was watery, and flat, and warm. SO nasty! I dumped it, and got some Coke Zero. And it was just nasty. So I dumped that, and got some lite lemonade. That wasn't too bad. Sigh. How disappointing.

I did get a WordArt pack designed, but Jim was being a turd. Talking back, not following the directions, not listening to me. The last straw was when he walked up to the glass door out of the playland area, and blew a raspberry (spit noise with your tongue) all over the glass. SO nasty. Yeah, I was done...

So we loaded up, and headed back to the church after only about 45 minutes. Tom's group was done right at 8pm, so we went inside to look for Jake. And there was a dance, of sorts, going on in the gym. Our youth don't go to dances until they're 14, so this must have not technically been a dance, but it sure looked dance like to me.

Anyway, Jacob saw me, and DARTED out of the gym, with this mortified look on his face, and stalked to the truck, without another word. Some of the other leaders there said that he didn't enjoy it at all. hehe. I think it traumatized him a little - ROFL!

After chatting with some of the girls from church for a few minutes, I loaded the kids back up in the truck, and we drove home. And Jacob was silent the WHOLE way. We pulled in the driveway, and he just sat there. I waited for the other kids to get out and go inside, and patted Jake on the shoulder and told him it was time to go inside.

So he came inside, and sat on the couch, and didn't move or speak for about 30 minutes... I had Tom put away a load of dishes, had Eme fold and put away her clean laundry, and I put the 2 little boys to bed.

Then Jake and Tom and I started watching Chuck. And about 5 minutes into the show, Boxer jumped up on the couch and practically SAT on Jake. He must have sensed that something wasn't right. So I told Jake that I thought that Boxer knew he was upset, and that it was Boxers way of trying to hug him and make it all better. That got a big smile out of Jake, and he snapped out of it. He snuggled with Boxer, and watched Chuck, and interacted like nothing had happened.

Note to self: Jake doesn't like dances...

It's now 10:04pm. And all the kids are in bed. The dog is napping on the couch. I'm done blogging, and am gonna finish off that episode of Fringe. Then probably go to bed. Because after 2 workouts today, I'm sleepy :)

Tomorrow, Laurie and I are putting our little ones in Childcare, and she and I and Kari are hiking in the morning. I need to be home in time to get Jim to school (bus at 11 or school at 11:30). Then I think I'm going to Costco with Terra and the twins. Because I don't recall if I've been there or not. AND, it is grocery shopping day. Surely there's something there that will be on my list - hehe :)

Then we're going to the Ice Skating rink at 4pm for Ft Bliss free skate (they teach the kids how to skate), and then I have a Relief Society meeting at 7pm. Should be a good time! Hopefully I can keep this cleaning streak up, because I'm liking my house like this.

Heart and Soul

Fun day, fun day :) Started off at 6:45am, when I got up, and went to check on the kids. Everyone was up and getting ready. Fabulous! All of their alarms had gone off, and no one was complaining. EVEN BETTER! Jake left the house first, at 7:05am. I found out later from Terra that the bus frequently comes early, so he needs to leave the house at 7am tomorrow. Sorry, Jake. hehe.

I got Tom, Eme, and Joe off to the bus at 7:35am, got Jim set up with a movie, and went back to bed till around 9am. Sure, I had some kid interruptions, but still, it was sleep. ha!

I woke up around 9am, changed clothes, and Jim and I headed to the store. I facebooked and texted and tried to get a shopping buddy, but I guess no one wanted to go with me..... ha! I'm fun, people! hehe.

So we headed out to the Dollar Tree. I had a box that I was sending to Captain America, and it needed some stuff in it. The book I was sending was too small for the small flat rate box, and the medium flat rate box had a TON of room. So I was gonna make up an Easter box.

And Terra had company over, and was getting a tiny bit overwhelmed, so she needed a "pick me up" present. So I searched for the perfect thing for her, too.

Sugar Free Candies, Energy Shot, and Lipgloss (OK, so that would be MY perfect "Pick me up"...)
And all sorts of Easter crap to go inside of Captain America's box.
Jim picked Popsicle as his treat.
My treat? Howdys refill. I thought I'd introduce Terra to the magical wonderfulness that is a 64 oz DDP... Now, getting 2 of those home was another thing... ha!

After Howdys, we headed for post, stopping at the PX to go to GNC for some vitamins for Captain America. And waited FOREVER in line, but finally got them. And headed back home.

And the bus was already driving away when we got to the bus stop, but luckily he recognized my car, stopped, and let Jim hop in. THANKS BUS DRIVER DUDE! I owe you goodies!

I decided to take a picture of my GNC bag to document my trip there, only to realize afterwords that it was a picture of a dude....

After dropping Jim off at the bus, I headed to Terra's house, and dropped off her goodie basket and soda. And chatted with her for about 15 minutes. Her hubby and brother in law were there, and I tried to convince them that she just NEEDED to come to Girls Night with us.

Then, it was off to the West side for my therapy appointment. I tried to call Andrea, since she always calls me to chat when she's driving, but she didn't answer. I called my mom, at work, and she and I chatted the whole way there :) Thanks, mom, for keeping me company!

It was a good session. We talked about Jake, and the past week, and how I handled the situation mostly good. The emotional eating on Sunday wasn't the best, but I'd stopped it, and didn't repeat it, so that's good. He said he thought I was doing good at making the best of a difficult situation.

And I don't know how my "socialness" came up, but he said that I was THE most social person that he'd ever met. Moi? Really? You think so? I have a hard time thinking of myself like that. I still sometimes think of myself as that shy, awkward girl from high school...

Anyway, after my appointment, I headed back on post. Singing the whole way home, of course...And Kari and I were gonna go to the pool. I ate lunch real fast, left Boxer out of his kennel for about 20 minutes, then headed to the pool. And it was SOOOO busy. Idon't know hat was going on there, but there was NO room for me in the lanes. I'm not a good sharer..... ha!

so Kari and I decided to go on a 4 mile walk instead. I called Laurie, to see if her and Rowan wanted to come too, then we all met at my house.

And as I walked out the front door (I usually go out through the garage), I found a box of flowers!!




Captain America had sent them, with a nice note about how awesome I was, and that I could handle things, and how proud of me he was. Awwwwww, thanks sweetie!!! I really appreciated it!!!

Kari and Laurie and Rowan and Boxer and I went on a walk, and it was a pretty good one. Boxer figured out about 1/2 way thought that I wasn't gonna stop at EVERY tree, bush, rock, fire hydrant, etc, and let him pee on it. I had to keep his leash really short, but he figured it out eventually. I think he really enjoyed his walk. I know I did. Thanks, girls, for walking with me! GREAT company :)

I got home JUST in time time get Jim from the bus. Well, according to my watch. But the bus was 10 minutes late, so really, I got to sit at the bus stop and chat with Erin and Maggie for 10 minutes. But I didn't mind - hehe.

After the bus dropped off the kids, I hurried home, addressed the box, and filled out the customs form for Captain America's package, grabbed some money, and Kari picked it up and took it to the post office for me, since she was going anyway. Thanks, my dear!

Here's me finishing off the last of my 64 oz-er...

Jake got home from the bus at 3:30pm, and had had another great day at school. Thanks goodness! I was so worried about my decision to put him back in public school, but each positive day he has reinforces that I made the right decision :)

And I hopped in the shower. Because it had been WAY too long. ha! And let me tell you, the shower felt WAY good :) I didn't quite have time to make myself all the way up, so I put in some hair gel, and a foundation layer, grabbed the rest of my make up, got dressed, and gathered up the kids from the bus to go to the library.

The library lady was SUPER grouchy today. She was yelling at kids, and grouchy about snack. She's usually not like that... hmmm.

The movie we watched was about "Weather". Our joke for the day was about how on windy days, studies show that there are more heart attacks and playground fights.... Maybe THAT'S why the library lady was grouchy! It WAS windy, after all.... LMBO!

The kids had Goldfish crackers and tortilla chips for snack, and the movie got over WAY too quickly. We pushed play on the projector again, and watched it a 2nd time. ha! Since I'd drug everyone up here, I was gonna stay for longer than 15 minutes. ha!

About 3/4 of the way through the movie the 2nd time, we decided to head out. I gathered up all the kids, and headed home. I cooked some Biscuits and Gravy casserole for them, and finished getting myself ready for my girls night.

I gave Tom all the directions on what/when/how to do things, and gave Jacob separate directions on how to stay out of everyone elses way (ha!). And told Tom to call me if he needed anything.

And off I went. Terra was driving herself and meeting us there. I picked up Amanda, but Laurie and Kari and Maggie all couldn't come last minute. As we left post, Kari texted and said that her hubby JUST got home, and that if we hadn't left yet, she still wanted to come. So of course, we drove the 2 minutes back to pick her up! Yeah! Kari was coming too!

Terra was there for about 15-20 minutes by herself, with a BIG group of girls that she didn't know. Sorry, hon, that we were late. They were nice, though, right? hehe.



I thought this fruity drink was JUST the cutest thing ever!
Diet Coke: What we drink when there's no DDP..
Hmpf! I ran out!
Ooo, a camera! Lets make faces!

Terra ordered this appetizer. It was yummy, but spicy
Terra and I. Or should that be Me and Terra?
2, 3, 4, 5? I lost count...
I texted Charlotte to see if she was coming, and managed to convince her to come! She was about 30 minutes late getting there, but I was SO glad she came. She's a TON of fun. hehe.

Salad
Breadsticks

Charlotte and her bread stick...

My yummy soup!
I love you, breadstick!


More Soda
Amanda ordered this SUPER tasty looking cake. Mmmm!
And since it was 3 of the girls' birthdays, they had cake! I had a little slice, and it was pretty good!

Charlotte and I
OMHeavens, it was SOOO much fun. We ended up with 17 girls. The way the table was situated, though, it was hard to interact with everyone. Our "end" of the table sure had a great time, though! hehe.

And here's the whole group! I'm totally pulling a face - ha!

Amanda, Kari, Charlotte, and I were the very last people to leave. ha! Chatterboxes, we are! I brought some mints home for Tom, and went searching the table for more. And found 3 breadsticks. Sweet! I was gonna take those home for him too. And Amanda said that I could take her left over seafood pasta home for him too. Awe, so sweet! I just KNEW that Tom would love it.

And we headed outside, and of course chatting in the parking lot for a while. And yeah, I must have been snuggling with my food. Because I looked down, saw it pressed to my body, and just KNEW that I must have been dripping all over myself. Yup, all down the front of me with seafood sauce...

Amanda looked at me like she thought I was gonna get upset, or freak out, or something, but I grabbed my camera, threw it at her, and told her to take a picture. ROFL! Silly, but that was my first impulse!

I know, I know, you can't take me anywhere, Terra :P I keep telling everyone that I'm the comic relief! On the up side, my dog was SUPER excited to see me :) ROFL!

We drove back to post, and I dropped off Amanda, then Kari, then went home. And I started blogging, and facebooking, and it's now 11:40pm. Laundry man has totally taken over everything. I'm considering sleeping on the couch. I wonder if I'd be able to sleep???

Great page, Sharon! Looks fantastic!

The Music is Inside Me

Holy long day! But a good day :) I woke up at 6:45am, said prayers, and got kids ready. Even Jim and Jake. Cause we were going to get registered. Tom, Eme, and Joe caught the bus at 7:30am, and Jake and Jim and I headed on up to the school.

I'd printed out all the documents that I needed last night, and gathered up the rest of the stuff that I needed. And out the door we went.

First stop, front office to see where we needed to go. Registrars office. She was busy, so she sent us to the nurse to turn in the immunizations. Then back to the registrars office. Who was still busy. So she directed us to the Special Ed office, where we talked to Mr. Joseph, the director of the special ed department.

We filled out some papers, and he sent us back to the registrars office. Who was busy, so we went to the office. And asked about lunch and bus. But they were busy too. So I talked with the office lady, and she made copies of our important documents, and took us on a tour of the school. Then we went to the registrars office, and grabbed a contact information sheet, filled it out, and gave it to the nurse. Then we went to the scheduling place, and Jake picked his classes. He was SO excited that he didn't have to take PE. ha!




So after we got classes, we went to get books. The way this school works, is that they check out books to the kids, which they keep at home. Then there's a set of books that stay in the classroom. What a GREAT system! No forgotten books! LOVE it!

And then back to the Special Ed place, more forms to fill out, an evaluation form to fill out, more papers to sign, and back to the front office. One of the special ed counselors decided to take Jake around for the day, and show him where classes were and such. First stop, 2nd period, Art. Jake LOVES art! The counselor dude made sure that the teacher knew that Jake was Autistic, and as I left, I heard some kid say "Hey, I know that kid! He lives in my neighborhood". Good sign, huh?

And we went back to the office, and found out about the bus, and got Jake a bus card, and a print out of the times for the bus stop. And we found out that since the other kids had reduced lunch, Jake qualified for it too! $0.40 lunches, can't beat that price!

I gave some money to the counselor guy to give to Jake for lunch, and we were done! 3 hours later! hehe. Next stop, home. Jim had 30 minutes before he had to catch the bus. I Skyped with Captain America the whole time. It was SO nice to chat with him, and fill him in on the process.

Then,I got Jim ready for the bus, gathered up my thing ad headed out. I told Maggie and Erin all about my crazy Friday when Jake ran away, and the MP's, and the window jumping, and the 3 hours hiding in the shed, and I could actually laugh about it. Let me tell you, it made for a good story - ROFL!

And I hoped in the car after the bus came, and drove on over to the army hospital. The 11th floor is where Jake used to see Dr Meyers, the child psychologist. And I needed him to fill out the Special papers for Autism.

But when I finally parked and hiked up to the hospital and found the 11th floor, there was a sign on the door saying that the entire floor had moved onto main post. Real close to our house. Crap! So, to salvage a wasted trip, I grabbed a pre-made salad from the dining facility mini shop. The one that I LOVE with mandarine oranges, cranberries, chicken, sliced almonds, and spinach. OMGosh, I'd drive up to the hospital JUST for that salad. Anyone wanna join me, and grab a YUMMY salad one of these days???

Anyhow, I paid, and grabbed a fork, and headed back on post. And ended up eating the whole salad before getting to my destination, with my fingers. Classy, aren't I? It was SO good, though. hehe.

And I drove to where I thought the building was, but it wasn't. So I asked the lady behind the desk, and she said ask next door. So I went next door, and there was a sign on the door directing me where to go. Wild goose chase, huh? ha!

I finally found the office, and talked to the SUPER nice receptionist lady. She had worked with Autistic kids in the schools for YEARS. We chatted a bit about Jacob, and she took the paperwork, and said that she'd have Dr Meyers fill it out, and call me when he was done (he was at lunch). And we got an appointment set up for me/Jake/Dr Meyers. The first available appointment was April 5th.

And I walked across the street to ACS and picked up my Waiting Families card, and headed home. And on the way, got a call from the nice lady at Dr Meyers office, saying that since Jake hadn't been seen since September, that Dr Meyers had to see Jake BEFORE he signed the form. Crap. Oh well, the school would just have to work with us....

And I got home, and it was SO peaceful. No one around. Quiet. Boxer and I went to the backyard, and I laid on a chair in the sun for about 15 minutes. It felt SO good. Then came back inside, and was gonna finish up a movie that I started on Sunday, but Laurie texted and said that she had some dresses to return to me, and if she could drop by. OF COURSE!

She and Rowan came over, and she stayed for about 45 minutes chatting. LOVE ya, girl! Thanks for the chat! I had a few minutes after she left, before I had to get Jim from the bus. I talked with my mom for a little bit, then headed to the bus stop. With Boxer. He seemed happy to be going.

Jim and I just hung for an hour, and I watched a few episodes of Kim Possible with him. Very relaxing. And then it was 3:30pm, and time for Jake to get off the bus. I snapped a picture of him when he got home. He was pretty happy :)

He said that he had a good time, and that it was WAY better than he thought it would be. That he actually LIKED being around people. ha! That's a first! He said that a lot of people came up and introduced themselves to him, and that most of is teachers were pretty nice.

And that, academically, the classes were SO much easier than homeschool. hehe. I knew that he'd like that :) And soon it was 4:00pm, and all the kids were home from school. And Laurie's kids walked over after the bus for about 15 minutes until she picked up her middle school daughter, then got back on post. We had snack, and the kids played for a few minutes.

Between 4-5, we did chores, and homework, an the carpet repair man came. He was gonna stretch the carpet in my room, and put down a new tack strip at the door. You know, the one that Boxer trashed.

I had to take a practice picture to make sure that the flash wouldn't go off, and alert the dude that he was being photographed, so I tested it on Jake. Phone on silent, and no flash. hehe. I'm so tricky!



And here's Joe, eating snacks!
Boxer was WAY too excited about the repair dude, and I put him in his kennel.
And the tool that he was using wasn't good enough for the job, apparently. Because he informed me that "He was going to get his big tool, and that he'd be right back". I contained myself, but just barely..... naughty, I know - hehehe.


Ignore Laundry man. I know, I said that he was going away today. I had grand intentions. I also thought that registration would take 20 minutes. Yeah, I underestimated the school districts need for paperwork...

Yup, that's DEFINITELY a big tool...
The boys eating snack in the kitchen

Me, happy about Jake's good day at school!
I helped Joe finish his homework, had the kids get changed into swim clothes, and we all headed up to the pool. And Kari dropped off Josephine to play, and we brought Noah (Leigh's son). So I had 7 kids. Kari was gonna come back if Leo's soccer practice was canceled because of the wind, but it wasn't. So it was just me.

And it was the ONLY time that I've been to the pool recently and didn't bring a laptop. Grrr. hehe. If I'm overly prepared I don't need anything, and if I'm under prepared, I'm bored. hehe. Oh well. But I do think it was the SLOWEST pool trip yet. 90 minutes of me, sitting by myself. WANTING to chat with someone, and no one around. And a dying phone, so I couldn't even call someone. Don't you feel sorry for me? hehe.






Finally, it was time to go. Jake and Tom were fighting, and I didn't like it. But, I guess for an hour and a half in the water, and I only had to yell at them 3 times, that's not bad...

Josephine stayed about 10 minutes at our house before he mom came to get her, and I started on dinner. Taco mush of sorts. hehe. I browned up 1 lb of turkey hamburger and 1 lb of turkey sausage. Then added 1 HUGE jar of pasta sauce, and 20 diced corn tortillas, and about 1/2 cup of milk. And cooked until softened, then added some shredded cheese. And the kids really liked it! Mostly because there was SO much meat in it. My kids are carnivores... Just like their mama!

We finished up chores, and I put the little kids to bed at 7:30pm. And Tom and Jake and I watched an episode of Chuck, and Eme had a classmate over for an hour to work on Homework.

And here it is, 9pm. Eme and Tom are in bed. Jake is waking boxer, then he's gonna be in bed. Cause his bus come 30 minutes before the elementary school bus. 7:15am. He's not really looking forward to that, but school in general, he is :) Yeah for school!

Sharon, my dear, I LOVE this one! I played Clarinet for all of my middle school/high school years, and LOVED every minute of it :)
