I have been so busy.

I am sorry I have had no time since Monday to sit here and type out things. But I want to write what I want at least 2-3 times a week. It is healthy to get things out right? Ok well I have just been washing laundry by hand , I am getting good at it. LOL. Cleaning house, and taking the kids outside or to the park everyday. Thats what I do mostly.

Oh I went window shopping and I found a dual DVD player for the suburban we want to get, I think the kids will love it. Also we have been looking at house ALOT. We have looked in Seminole, Odessa and Midland. I think I like the houses in Odessa the most. We found a few, and we have a couple appt. this weekend. YAY. Well I am beat, gonna read some of my book, G'ngiht!

Monday, Monday

Nothing exciting. Really cold here, and we are supposed to get fog all day tomorrow! I was driving home tonight and the fog was just rolling in, it was kinda creepy. LOL I might just be imagining it. Kasen is getting better I am so excited to see him.

Tonight was a new episode of House and 24 tonight. They were awesome~ OK theres really nothing more to say Im tired, Goodnight!

Weekend!

Well I had somewhat of a busy Saturday, then a semi-busy sunday. lol Yesterday I did 5 loads of laundry, and then went grocery shopping, and cleaned house. Ah, later that evening me and Raymond watched Proof of Life. Its awesome, I love that movie. Nothing going on really. We are starting to save money now, we are gonna buy a house dang it lol.

Today started out OK, I finished a few more loads of laundry. I also did a little more shopping, I wanted to buy Kasen some Valentines gifts for his class. I miss him so much, and getting a new, bigger house means everything to him, because he will come back home to me. Also, those who read this, please send your prayers to my Kasen, he fell off his bike and now he has bruised ribs and a hematoba (sp?) on his kidneys. Aw my poor baby! I love you sweetie!

So has anyone seen that new show Lie to Me* I love it. My new show yay! Also, I love HOUSE!!! Re-runs come on Sunday night, and guess what its Sunday night !!!!! Cant wait! OK well my night will end with a bath and reading my book good night all!!

a windy night!

I know I havent posted in a while, I have been busy shopping, and getting things ready for our trip to lubbock. Soooo Here is how my week has gone. We are getting a new Suburban, well new to us lol. We will get it next friday, they are getting us new tires, washing it, and then bringing it to us on Friday. woohoo!

Me and the kids have been just playing outside non-stop. With all this nice weather how can we not lol. Today when we were outside playing Erik came up to me and covered his earsand asked me "Mommy, what's that noise?" It was the sirens from a fire truck, and he knew the noise from his toys but we rarely hear them way out here. lol

Tonight we went and seen Underworld 3, and The Unborn. They were both awesome!! You have got to see them. The kids were surprisingly great during both movies, I took their DVD player for them and they watched wall-E and Shrek 3. lol how cute huh?!?

We went to walmart after the movies, and we found the double burner we have been searching for hurray! Now I can cook stove top again. LOL It kinda sucks with the RV life, but we are dealing with it. Something I really am looking forward to is my bed lol I miss it so much!

my day!!

this morning i caught on camera some amazing photo's of the sun rising, and one that was with the moon and the sun rise. it was great. but it was on my camera phone so it was a little blurry.

I watched the inaguration this morning, it was great. Barack is now our prez. lol woo hoo! i hope the ecomomy hets better sometime soon.

oh, last night House and 24 didnt air, thank goodness they are playing it again tonight. I love those shows!!! well i guess thats its, pretty boring around here!

ahhh, what a day!

ok so i have some great news!!!! my papa went to the doctor today and a 2nd doctor says he DOES NOT have a brain tumor. But his cancer that is in his lungs has taken 4 years to get to both lungs. so he will be doing radiation to treat it, we will know something good in about a month. I am so excited but i dont want to get my hopes up till we know for sure what his results are. I have been praying everyday for God to help my papa. Thank you Lord!!!

So today me and the kids played with some frisbees and had a blast. Erik had this huge one and Keylan a reg. size one. they played hard lol. they have been stuck inside for the past couple days becuase it has been cold. they love that movie shrek the third, so they watch it over, & over, & over......

me and my hunny watched superman returns tonight. i love that movie. since we live way out here in the derserted area ::LOL:: we cant get cable, so we have a converter box that isnt getting a signal. so we watch movies alot. I miss my tv, i liked watching house, and tonight there was a new monday night episode lol. ah oh well. its ok really. just at night when i cant sleep i liked watvhing law&order or csi:NY lol

oh hey, does anyone use t-mobile? we are thinking about going with that service. i found a couple of phones that we like. there is no deposit, can you believe that? for us thats great lol. so i have my internet through alltel, and my cell through t-mobile. cRaZy!

Let's all remember to take the time to live

Let's all remember to take the time to LIVE!!!!A friend of mine opened his wife's underwear drawer and picked up a silk paper wrapped package:'This, - he said - isn't any ordinary package.'He unwrapped the box and stared at both the silk paper and the box.'She got this t he first time we went to New York , 8 or 9 years ago. She has never put it on , was saving it for a special occasion.. Well, I guess this is it. He got near the bed and placed the gift box next to the other clothing he was taking to the funeral house, his wife had just died. He turned to me and said:'Never save something for a special occasion. Every day in your life is a special occasion'.I still think those words changed my life.Now I read more and clean less.I sit on the porch without worrying about anything.I spend more time with my family, and less at work.I understood that life should be a source of experience to be lived up to, not sur vived through. I no longer keep anything. I use crystal glasses every day... I'll wear new clothes to go to the supermarket, if i feel like it.I don't save my special perfume for special occasions, I use it whenever I want to. The words 'Someday...' and ' One Day...' are fading away from my dictionary. If it's worth seeing, listening or doing, I want to see, listen or do it now.. I don't know what my friend's wife would have done if she knew she wouldn't be there the next morning, this nobody can tell. I think she might have called her relatives and closest friends.She might call old friends to make peace over past quarrels. I'd like to think she would go out for Chinese, her favorite food. It's these small things that I would regret not doing, if I knew my time had come.Each day, each hour, each minute, is special. Live for today, for tomorrow is promised to no-one.

in odessa...

ok so my day started out not so great. I went to do my laundry and i left, well the car wouldnt start after 5 minutes. So i try and try and try NOTHING. So I try to call everyone I know to come help me or pick me up, something. well i got no one. So I walked home, which in walking time took me 2 hours to get there. We live in the country so I had to climb a few barbed wire fenses and go through a field. my legs hurt so bad, and my feet oh, dont even get me started. So now I am in odessa at home depot. waiting for my hunny to get our propan tanks. I want to just go home and take a nice warm shower. woo hoo. and we are going to to walmart now to fill all our meds. we have a combination of 11 meds. lol dang huh! ok so i have to be doing something when we drive in odessa, bc i have really bad anxiety when we drive here. ever since our really bad wreck, when i was 33 weeks preg with erik, i cant drive in big cities, i have to have my mind on something else or be a sleep, bc i will freak out and cry the whole time till we park. Now we are on our way home we stopped at Rosa's to grab a bite to eat.

stressful friday

so today was a bit stress full for me. I had plenty to do with 2 toddlers at my hips. I got my shopping completed.I now am the proud owner of that cute arts and crafts tote. And we are going to sleep so comfortable with our new blankets. I was able to find 2 small ones perfect for the kids to sleep with lol. Now I am waiting to go back to Odessa with my hunny to go grocerey shopping, re-fill our propane tank, and buy a few household items. But Keylan was like extra hyper or something, he would not listen to me at all, kept getting into everything, and running awat at target. I took them to eat at a little diner and he didnt want to eat. ahhh, I cant wait for bedtime lol. I love him to death but he was too hyper for me today, my day to shop!! lol Hope everyones Friday was great!

an o'so cold day

so it is only 37 degrees and thats all. i really wanted to get some much needed shopping done. We are getting a new tubfor the RV and all the stuff, I have to go and buy some more wintery blankets. I found some electric blankets on sale at dillards for $89.00. There is some crafts supplies i need, and I found this really cute arts & crafts bag that I have to have. Also, i ordered the new John Grisham book, the Associate. Oh and Shia Lebouf will star in the movie this year. yay! I havent recieved my bird houses yet, but i cant wait.

a new week

a new week is here. I am hoping that the weather stays nice so that I can take the kids outside to play. they love playing around here, its so open and adventerous to them. i am thinking that this weekend i am going to go see Kasen. i am just waiting to see if I have the funds for gas. so keep your fingers crossed for me lol. I watched Eagle Eye with my honey last night, it was so awesome. It was really good throught out the whole movie. Oh did i mention that we found a fridge thats a full size reg. fridge but its small to fit in our RV. I am excited bc it has an ice machine too. Its hard to keep ice in here with such a tiny tiny freezer in our tiny fridge that we bought. lol

My papa has been going to the doctor once a week, and there is still no change. I am not sure what came out of the appt. that was for is chemo. Like i am not sure if he will get to do that, or if it will make no difference. All I can do is pray and have tons of hope. But this Valentines Day is for him. I am putting together a "Pot-Luck Memory Lunch" for him. All my immediate family will be there and we will bring some of our own fav. dishes to munch on. I am also putting together a power of prayer collage for him. It is cards from all my internet friends that have prayers in them, hope and faith. I will give this to him then also. So in the mean time just keep my family in your prayers and we will see what happens.

a fun saturday

we didn't do anything special, but it was just being together. we went and ate at out fav. place::wing stop:: and then we went to home depot, where we found a fridge that we want to buy that will fit in the RV. We looked around at everything and Raymond found a knife/blade. he loves those things. there were so many cool things there that i had never seen. then we headed to walmart where we bought a few household items that we needed. I had to go to a laundry mat tonight, and it wasnt that bad, i got 3 loads done in an hour, where at home it would take longer lol. raymonds at his friends tonight, and i cant wait till he gets home so we can watch eagle eye yay. ok, gonna go play farm animals with my kiddos! I wish kasen was here to play with us.

yay...is all i can say

So we are done with moving, and putting our things in storage. HURRAY! We no longer have our house, but I am gratefull things worked out this way. God tells us that we have to go through the bad to get to the good. We have a roof over our heads, food, water and each other. But as long as we are happy, we will overcome this. Life isnt hard, you just have to enjoy everything in life even when your at your lowest in life. Enjoy all the things that come your way, and try not to see the bad things. I may not have a lot, but I am happy with what i do have. My kids are happy and my family is happy. I do miss Kasen tons, but I know that he is happy where he is and I will soon be together with him again. He is only staying with my mom bc of school, I didnt want to keep taking him in and out of school when he is so happy there. His happiness means more to me than anything. I am blessed to have my family and friends always love me even when we are at our lowest in times. Thank you for always being there. Here's a picture of Kasen being silly, like I always see him. lol

The country

Me and the boys had such a busy day. We went and got us a P.O. box, grocery shopping, got light bulbs for the RV, new water hose, went to the park for lunch. ugh, I am glad it was over. Then when Raymond came home he changed the oil in our car, and me and the boys played some more. I also got to talk to kasen tonight. i was so happy to hear his sweet voice. Living way out here in the boondocks is great, more stars, great sunsets, and peaceful gatherings with my family. I have very little no cable TV, no cell phone, ( i do have the Internet, for my studies, and keeping in touch with family for my papa). And I am happier with out all that, it makes me feel like when I was little the best gift I can give my children is imagination. Let them live the fullest, boys play in dirt and chase the bunnies into the Fields, rather than being stuck in front of the t.v for hours. Anyhow, no more soap box. here are some photos of course. lol

A little more at home

So day 2 is going ok here in the RV. The weather outside is warmer but there is plenty of wind. So I took the kids out for a long walk in their wagon around our new neighborhood. Ode::our 2 yr old cat:: wasn't liking the newness lastnight. But today he went with us and saw that there is tons more room for him to run and no one will bother him. I thought living way in the country would be horrible. But I don't have to worry about the kids getting ran over when we are playing outside. We can run around with out having to wait for cars to pass. lol I love all the openness out here, but with all that we get a lot of dirt so I am constantly cleaning the dust off lol.

Me and the boys were bored today..

Well this was this first day in our RV life-style lol. It was ok. Just it is weird that I dont have to clean 24/7. Maybe that will help me lose my stress and frusterations lol. But me and the kids were acting silly, so we played on the web cam. Here is some of what we did:: We were all being silly today. They are some awesome kids.

Our New Home!?!

You may or may not know about my living situation, so here goes. The bank that we have our home loan from was lying to us about paying the escro on our house. So 3 yrs. goes by and we never knew. Then in the beginning of December (great month eh?) they send us a letter say we owe 1500.00 in insurance and over 3000.00 in taxes for our home. WTH? right. Thats when I found out what was going on. Well when we go to try and fix everything they tell us that they auctioned off our house to the city. So we are borrowing an RV from a friend till we can save enough money to buy us another house, from a bank we can trust. The RV isn't that bad, last night was our first night here. It has one bed and a futon bed. Its small but we are going to manage and isnt very much money to rent every month. So that will help us save money. I was pretty sad when I knew we would have to live in something that has no washer and dryer, a tiny stove and tiny sinks. But hey everything happens for a reason right? So with that God Bless and Ill possibly post pics later.
