So L is gone... :( He left this morning. I miss him when he's gone but this time its more than normal because I don't know when I'll get to see him again and after Sunday I don't know when I'll hear from him again. Normally I wouldn't complain, seperation has been a big part of our relationship, I've gotten used to him being gone a lot, this time... its harder and I'm not sure if its due to not knowing when he'll be home, if its because I'm here alone with 2 kids or if its because I'm here alone with 2 kids and unable to walk due to my knee surgery. I have 3 more weeks and then I can start putting weight on it again (hopefully). I had my MCL repaired (I was told after the fact that thats one of the most painful and time consuming in the healing department out of all knee repairs.. gee thanks for the info after the fact) I start physical therapy hopefully sometime soon. I have a high rate of injuring it again before it is fully healed and for what I had done, it can take up to 6 months or longer. I also had the back of my knee cap scraped (yummy right?) and if I'm feeling correctly, it feels like i had some of it taken out.
I get side tracked easily. Anyways, today wasn't so bad although it was the first day. Went to Walmart with E and rode around in the gimp cart hahaha. Had K strapped to me in the snuggli facing forward. He got a kick out of me letting him grab the handles and making us go... he only managed to take us backwards. I'm hoping with L gone I can catch up on my school work and get ahead. Night time is when I normally do my work but because he's had so much time off to get ready to go he's been home a lot at night and stopped me from reading. I have 2 midterms to take. I'm taking one tonight (my history one isnt proctored and Im like 4 chapters behind) and I go and take my Comp one tomorrow morning. Wish me luck cause I need it.
K is getting soooo big, he is crawling all over the place. He's got 2 teeth now and more to come. Im still trying to wean him but he's at that stage where they develope seperation anxiety and he's having a hard time with it, especially when he's tired. He refuses to take the bottle, it has to be the boob or he is screaming his head off until his little face is purple and I have to give in to keep him from getting sick.
Miss A is 5!!! She turned 5 on Fathers Day. We had he party on Saturday and she had a blast. She got lots of toys. I can't believe how big she is getting. She'll be starting Kindergarden this fall and it amazes me how smart she is. She can say her ABC's, recognize letters and some words, count to 30 (she misses some numbers) and is awesome and putting things in order. She can write some letters and numbers but for the most part just gets frustrated. As we speak she pointing out letters and numbers and some words from which I am typing. We are starting to not be able to spell out words to avoid her overhearing them because she knows what they mean. We got her one of those V-smile V-motion thingies and she loves it, she's so good at some of the games. i was suprised and how fast she picked it up, she has never played a video game in her life.
Have I mentioned how much I hate it here? We have had a HUGE ant problem the last week. I went today and got some Home Defense spray because L's ant feeder things just weren't cutting it, they weren't reducing crap. So far so good, i just need to sweep up the little ant carcuses and other bugs that died in the battle already. I'm shocked at how fast it worked. Should have seen me hobbling around on my crutches spraying where I was able to because of my limited movement and because the kids were still awake. Im gonna see if E wil help me move some furniture tomorrow to get behind the couches and stuf before we go to dinner tomorrow.
I wish the pizza would hurry up and get here, Im starving and want my damn bread sticks!!
Feedom comes at a price and some pay more than others. I proudly support my husband in his decisions to help protect our way of life even though it means long lonely nights of worry and heartbreak.
