Long Time, No Blog....sorry

So, Sorry about that, life got in the way of my blogging....pshhhhha

Anyways, Life is good at the moment, but I have alot of catching up for yall....

School year is going well without a hitch, My hubby reenlisted....who knew and we have orders to move!!
He reenlisted and we are heading to Fort Richardson Alaska, it is in Anchorage, which is a great place to be if your living in Alaska....I am all about the wilderness and am a little sad that it is so populated...thats right, I said that.

My hubby and I are planning on retiring on some remote farm in the mountains someday...so it is a dream come true for us to go to Alaska....

We leave in Late June 2009.

I am currently getting the house in order to put it back on the market.

Whomever buys it will be very lucky, it is in the best shape since we bought it, actually even better than when we bought it. I just relandscaped the yard with some new sod, so it is the prettiest it has ever been.

I am alomost a little sad I haven't gotten to enjoy it for very long and now I have to sell it....but I am ready to move so I shall get it done ASAP.

anyways, that was my 2 cent update, I will blog again soon.

Knee Deep...

Mike & SGT Barrett in Iraq 2006

Mr. Riley is hot stuff!!

OK, I would say we are about knee deep into this deployment now. It is sucking REAL bad. I am managing....morelike surviving, but I odnt know how long I can keep it up. I know I will be heading home for awhile this summer, probably like 3 weeks since that is all I can handle at home. But I need it. The past 2 weeks have taken their toll on me. I think it has sent me into a never ending Anxiety attack....I am just hypervigilant lately. I keep thinking bad things are happening to my husband, which isnt good. I have been able to calm myspef this past week, by having to be strong for my friend Shelby. She is now a widow. I feel horrible that her husband is no longer alive. But Mike is trudging on, so I shall too. I just worry all the time.

OK on to other things, today I had a Parent/ Teacher conference with Jakob's pre-K teacher. He is the youngest in the class, so I kinda expected to hear it, but he is struggling with some concepts in class. For the most part he is right where he needs to be, but she said some things are more based on maturity, and since he is the youngest he hasnt gotten there yet. SO she reccomends holding a slot for him in Pre K and in Kindergarten. I am sad, but I kinda expected to hear it. Nathan took 2 years of Preschool. But I will be bummed out if he cant go on with his friends and have the same Kindergarten teacher as Nathan. I am sure we will be moving when Mike gets home so I really want Jake to be prepared for Kindergarten so whatever is best, I guess.

I need to file my taxes because I am itching to spend the money and have a savings again. I have a list of things I need to get, mostly fix up th ehouse so it will FREAKING sell already!!

OK. I will wrap this up. Sorry I havent blogged much. I mean to, I think about it, but I take turns blogging on myspace and here....check my myspace for a few other blogs.......or my blogger for some too....

PS - Riley now has 4 teeth, one more on the way. He turns 6 months old next week. He is weighing in last weekend at 18 pounds!! He is sitting npw too....they grow up too fast, maybe thats why I keep having more!!!
