Crazy times!

So I got on a roll.  Got daily posts going out (which is my goal) then poof insanity took place.  Just a lot going on with church and getting our house in order for company in 2 weeks plus my daughter had company for a week.  AND My son is home!  Woohoo!  So now we are back to a family of four.  Funny how when your kids grow up and move away and then move back, it is wierd to get a normal.  Well that being said, this blog post will be a little meandering, please forgive me.

Lately there has been a lot going on.  With my son going home I have had to meander that whole thing again of him and I and the fact that we sometimes are too much alike.  But so far, we are ok.  No major rows.  And he seems to be adjusting to our new location well.  He still is looking for a job, but, I don't know how hard he is looking.  Im sure soon he will be looking a little harder.  The army gave him a smoking thing so...........he needs smokes and with me not working full time either, I can't budget his smokes.

So my opinion of the army an their policies. My son got the shaft.  With all of this downsizing thing, my son (who was injured) got a regular discharge.  Lost half of his 9/11 benefit.  He was told he was being med boarded out meaning he would keep 10% of his pay and keep his Post 9/11 benefit for college tuition.  Nope.  So, here we are.  I really feel like if a soldier gets injured they should not be screwing them out of their benefits to 'save money'.  It is not acceptable.  Just my opinion no hatemail please.

Also, trying something new.  It is a product called Tru.  Helps with weightloss.  I just finished day one on 3/30/15.  So we will see as I go forward.  I also gave up SODA!  OMG>  WHAT WAS I THINKING!?!?!?!  I quit smoking myself because I can't quantify that into our budget and then no soda........and starting a new pill to lose weight.  But on day 1 my energy level was soo high.  I was like surprised.  I mean I have not been low energy persay but, I feel a marked increase in my energy level.  I like it.  I will keep you in tow on that one too.  I took before pics and measurements. I am not using my scale because I definitely think something is wrong with it.  NO Im not saying there is no way i weigh that much.  What i am saying, is that it says i gained 60 lbs since we moved here. But a lot of my clothes from up there are fitting looser.  So..........not really possible to gain that much weight but have loose fitting clothing...just saying. 

Our house!  Well my living room is DONE!!!  ZMy Kitchen is DONE!  My dining rom is 98% done.  My craft room 98% done.  Today, craft room will be finished and my green room will be in progress and hopefully my dining room will be done.  I want to start peeling wallpaper this week.....sooo.....we will see.

Ok so this now ends the meandering of my post for today!  Have a great one and God Bless!
