Military Logic

Filed under Army, moving

So we moved into this house about six months ago. Since then it’s been back and forth on whether we’re moving into new housing or not while they tear these down and make way for new houses. They’ve already torn down and are in the process of rebuilding the block across from ours to the [...]

Get It Together

I feel so disorganized since we moved. My “office” was right by the front door and I had an area for all those school papers and such. Now in this house, located in what locals call “Smurf Village,” there just isn’t room for the computer and its desk downstairs. For 2009, I’ve decided to get [...]

Dishwashers

So I was happy to find when we looked at the house that it had a dishwasher since most of these don’t. I’m steadily finding out why they’re dubbed “Smurf Houses” every day. We have a portable in this one. Did anyone else not know they still made those? I thought [...]

It’s a Small (Blogging) World

Ok, how many heads did I plant that never ending song into? It truly is though. I came across another blogger that grew up in the same area of PA I did. We shared the same horrific elementary field trip memories LOL. I learned of her blog on MomDot.com.
Zach had [...]

Why Did I Have Kids?

This morning started off badly. First of all, Zach was up when I got up. That would have been fine had he stayed in his room. But no. He came out and was talking to me. And not only talking but asking me about stupid and irrelevant stuff he pulled [...]

For those keeping track, the kitchen timer got packed on Monday, and it’s still going off in whatever box it’s in today, Friday. My goal for the weekend is to get the kitchen all set up so we can actually eat at home starting next week when Chris is home. Yes, he’s working [...]

We’re Here

I’d say we’re all moved in, but not really. There’s boxes everywhere. When people ask me, I just say, “Well, all our stuff’s here.” I will admit it was great to watch other people pack it all and move it. All I really had to do was keep kids out of [...]

Moving Day

It’s here! Today and tomorrow the movers are packing and moving all our crap LOL. I’m just to the point where I want them to throw the stuff in boxes and let’s go. I’ll sort it on the other end.
We did take some time out and enjoy one last Oktoberfest in this [...]

Not Much To Report

Not much to report here. I’m in full on moving mode as the movers come Monday. I’ve left it up to them whether we move half one day and half the next since they have to drive back down to the town where our new house is empty or loaded. It’s supposed [...]

Yep, We’re Home

Some things never change. My boys acting like wild zoo animals at the doctor’s office is one of them. Our allergist always says “Bless you.” in reference to my being the mother of these boys at least once during our visits LOL. We have one more doc appt down, I have no [...]
