Finally!

Okay so I figured it’s been awhile since I last posted something so I thought I’d update it a little. Bill will be coming home soon and I can’t wait! I’m ready for a break and to get him back home so we can be together again. The kids have missed him dearly and Tristan asks every night and even in the middle of the night about when daddy is coming home. These last few weeks have been rough but we are almost there. Thank God! We had our last get together for celebrating the day they left and we all had fun. Let’s just hope that he is home in the beginning of the month rather than the middle but I won’t complain because he will be on his way home.
We managed to make it through the holidays even though it was quiet. Kim and her kids came over on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. We had a good time and the kids all played well together. Kinds of surprising considering the kids are together almost every day but it has also helped pass the time along. I’ve managed to stop calling my family because I’m also sick of dealing with everyone else’s damn drama back home. I have enough drama here for my whole family if they would like it.
Since Jordan went back to school I’ve managed to start going back to the gym and I’m enjoying it now more than ever. I just wish that the pounds would keep shedding instead but we will see how this week turns out. I’ve adjusted to what I’ve been eating and I very rarely snack on anything except for a small dish of yogurt ice cream at night once in a while. It’s amazing how much better a person feels after they’ve been to the gym and for me it gets all of my frustration out of my system. I love it!
And oh yes, can you believe it since Bill has been gone we’ve managed to make only 1 trip to the ER. If it wouldn’t have been for Tristan and his bead that he stuck up his nose we would’ve been alright. Leave it to a little boy to do something like that one. What a joke. The Bitburg after hour’s clinic wouldn’t see us so we had to go off base. We went to the Krankenhaus in Bitburg and they wouldn’t see us so instead we had to drive our happy asses to Trier to the children’s hospital there. Got to love being over seas! But to top that off, they wouldn’t even see him in the children’s department so we had to go up to the ENT floor and be seen up there. I was not happy by this time and Tristan thought it was hilarious. I’m glad Kim came with me so I had some help because he was everywhere while I was trying to fill out paper work. But we got the bead out with no problem and the little sh*t did it again the next day. Didn’t he learn from the first experience but I’m glad I could get that one out. Jordan never did anything like this one but I guess they each have their own way of expressing things. Jordan was obsessed with cutting her hair and Tristan is obsessed with putting things up his nose. With that being said I’m off to get ready for the gym. Need to relieve stress and burn those calories
