First Week

So its been almost a full week since Andrew left and things are going really well. It hasn;t been to bad, but we won’t tell Andrew that. The kids are doing well, though they ask for daddy a lot. We are hoping that Andrew gets to come home for Thanksgiving but no promises.

As for school things are okay. I would like to say winding down but with the final projects coming due within the next two weeks and final papers things are a little overwhelming. Plus I have my interview tomorrow. So things are a little hectic. I should actually be doing a paper now lol. But I am writing to you.

I hope things are well with everyone else and I am going to go get to work or at least pretend to.

So it’s been a while…

Sorry it has been so long! What a jerk I am!! I know you are all dying to know what has been going on with me, and sorry to say you will all be sorely disapointed because all that has been going on is that I am still sick. I know! I went to specialist on the 31st of October and my infection had cleared up and there was nothing wrong with my ears, nose or throat. But now I have a cold again and I can feel the pain starting in my ears again. The boys, too, have been sick on and off. Aiden had hand, foot and mouth which is some sort of virus that gives your dots on your hands and feet and in your mouth. He is fine now but then they both got colds with fevers over the weekend. It’s like a never ending cycle. So I disinfected all the toys and am hoping that if I just cover the house in disinfectant spray some of the reoccurance will stop, of course daycare is like a little germ factory so I wouldn’t count on it.

As far as school, things are good. I love it and can’t wait for my field practicum to start and to really delve into mental health. The place where I am going deals with outpatient mental health, chemical dependancy, and the homeless. I am to excited! Classes are well, I can’t believe that there are only 2-3 class sessions left (depending on the class)! Then winter break! Wahoo! What also excites me is all the awesome people I have met, like Jill who is also a recruiters wife, or Katie who is hilarious, and all the wonderful people in my wonderful, work oriented groups. I am so greatful I didn’t get stuck with sucky groups, because anyone who knows me knows I used to dread group work!

Lets see, well Andrew leaves tomorrow for a month so I will be on my own. He is going to station commander school. He gets back Dec 13th or so, then goes for BNOC in either January or February for another couple weeks. He has had off since Friday and has been spending a lot of time with the kids before he leaves. He actually took them to daycare for me this morning, hence the early post! Lucky you!

Other than that I think that’s it. Just want to send prayers/thoughts out to Nita and Christian for all you are going through as well as the Fraki’s for their recent loss of Grandma Hiirvi.
