I hate bears, not the cute lil polar bears at the zoo, I'm talking about the huge freaking grizzly bears stalking the woods! I had a dream the other night and i woke up panic-stricken to the point of tears, i even had to call my mommy to feel better lol. Anyways here goes the dream:
I'm in a restaurant in the woods, a huge one with like 2 stories, maybe a hotel too. Any how its your typical diner set up, inside were my family and a bunch of "rednecks". Everything is great until we hear this horrible screaming coming from the kitchen. Blood curdling screaming! One of the waitresses runs out panicked saying that a bear is eating the dishwashers arms off! Everyone runs outside, fleeing from the hungry bear, only the bear ran off into the woods and is now possibly stalking everyone as we huddle around this injured dishwasher trying to help! Someone yells that the FBI is going into the woods looking for this bear, and then all the "rednecks" pull out shot guns and are like ya right the FBI sucks, so they take off after this killer bear. then the alarm goes off and i wake up freaked out of my mind...
So a few days has passed but i am no kidding afraid of the woods now. I don't want to even go camping lol or have anything to do with wooded areas. The thought of bears brings me to tears. Hahaha pretty sad huh lol.
Awwww

Jenkies its been a while!
Hey guys, lol its been what a few months? well life here is back to normal, before the deployment i mean. We spend our days together as a family usually playing Mario bros on wii or hanging out at some tourist trap!
We are so thrilled to have our solider back.
Last week we traveled through Bavaria. While there we went to Legoland! It was amazing and wonderfully fun! i have never even seen a roller coaster before, the biggest deal when i was growing up was the good old county fair! Lego land has a few real roller coasters. I rode them all a few times lol. I know i looked like a big ole kid, i probably had more fun than Frankie actually.
So Legoland is a most deff yes if you are in the area. it was easily located and they have a few hotels in the area that are reasonably priced. I say hotel because you will need at least two days to see everything inside legoland. and Don't forget to buy some legos!!! You can get tickets to legoland and avoid standing in the long lines here: www.legoland.de
we also went to visit Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial. It was a quite somber visit. I had no idea i mean i knew it was bad i knew this from school and research on my own, but i had NO IDEA how extremely horrible it actually was. One of the worst things i remember from the camp was what building three was used for. Medical Experiments! they actually did experiments on humans, how inhumane is that? wow. wow. dude, wow. Horrifying!
_____________________________________________________________________
So.....i was researching the Fisher House and i came across a link on their web page that was interesting to me. Did u know you can donate your unused frequent flier miles to the Fisher House for soldiers and military families in need? well for me this was perfect, you see i fly as much as i can back and forth between New Jersey and Arizona as you can imagine i get quite a few miles, unfortunately not enough to actually do anything with them. So i donated them all to this wonderful organization, in hopes that it can help someone get home.
OOOOOh its my turn to play Mario! write more later!!!

The Lemonade Detox Diet
Ok here goes, as all of you know i am overweight, and my hubby is possibly coming home sooner than expected! eeeeeeeek! So i am getting serious now...
Ok so i feel to fully reep the benifits of any diet you have to detox first. So you start off with a clean system, inside and out. So, to start my diet i have chosen to detox with the Lemonade Detox Diet. It is a book written by Stanley Burroughs, called the Master Cleanse. (ok i have not read the book, i do not recommend doing this without the advice of a medical professional, blah blah blah)
This is kind of a science expirement, im a bored army wife and my husband is deployed, i have the time for this.
Ok so the recipe is:
2 Tablespoons (1 fluid ounce) fresh-squeezed lemon or lime juice NOT BOTTLED JUICE!! (approx. 1/2 lemon),
2 Tablespoons (1 fluid ounce) organic Grade B maple syrup, (i couldnt find grade b so i used a)
1/10 Teaspoon or more cayenne pepper (hot red pepper),
1 Cup (8 fluid ounces) purified or spring water, NOT fluoridated water.
So the deal with this diet is you are supposed to drink this 10x a day, along with a salt water "flush" in the morning and a herbal detox tea in the evening before bed.
for 10 days...not so bad right? we are about to find out!
I decided to wait until Monday to start this diet just because i had just gone grocery shopping and i didnt want to waste all the fresh food i got. So all the cooking i will be doing will be one serving meals for my son, for the next 10 days, i think i can do this...pray for me!
Most people recommend taking before and after shots and posting them, but hell no! Never! ha ha ha ha ah. so here is the journey i am taking to a new me.
Sunday December 14th, 2008:
The night before, tonight i went out and bought a nice water bottle to hold my mixture in so i can take it with me wherever i go this week. I will not be doing the salt water flush in the morning simply because i know it gives you the runs and i have to take a friend to an out of town appt. ya that would be bad. 12:09am: going to bed now, i stayed up all night playing the sims2 ha ha ha i love it! Goodnight World!
Monday December 15th, 2008 7:08am:
Ok so i made the stuff, looks like a drink you might find in Mexico, smells like it too. I havnt tried it as i just brushed my teeth and ya lemonade first thing after teeth brushing is about as gross and you can get. Im leaving now so wish me luck! Wow the stuff was so good, i could most def get into this.
So i was thinking, and in order not to get sick all teh websites i visited advised going to the detox diet, then slowly weening yourself back on solid foods, well as we all know Christmas is 10 days away, that would mean either no Xmas dinner, or i would be very sick that day if i did eat. I think i may have timed this wrong, so what i am going to do is postpone the detox diet until after new years, it can be my resolution!

UPDATE ON MY LIFE AS OF 3/10/2008
hmmm ok so lets see what has happened so far.
Well 2 days ago i fell and sprang my ankle, it really hurt at the time but is alright now. it was gross though.
It was late prolly around 9pm, I was on my way to the shoppette to get baby wipes, a light bulb, some pens, and some Ibuprofen. Frankie wanted to go so I took him along. We were outside my building and we decided to race to the car. I was going to take a shortcut through the grass so I can win right, well I darted off into the grass and my foot hit part of the edge of the cement and folded into the crevice between the stairs and the grassy area. I heard a loud pop, ugh I wanted to barf, still do when I think about it. Anyways so Frankie starts yelling "ahh ha ha momma you fell", dude it was a Saturday night and everyone was out on their balcony’s and this lil brat just "put me on blast". lmao i guess it was funny despite me crying hysterically, damn it hurt. So i crawled up to the intercom and pushed my button, Frank answered all annoyed that i even existed at the moment im sure, and I start balling asking him to come help me. Took us about 10 mins to climb my 6 flights of stairs. Man that sucked. I woulda posted pics but it didn’t look bad enough to take pics lol. i don’t want to look like a wuss.
Ok then their is Franks head pains. We are not sure what is going on with him but he has had this issue for about 5 years. Up until now they were just random sharp pains in the back of his head. But now they are actually affecting his life. He has a hard time finishing PT, as every time he strains he gets that pressurized sharp pain in the back of his brain. Even bending down causes him pain. This worries me because as most of you know he is deploying very soon and i know when he os over there he needs to concentrate on what he is doing not his head pains. So after failing his PT test today, which doesn’t happen very often, he told his Sgt about it. They agreed to let him go to the sick hall tomorrow. so we will see what happens about that.
Now to Frankie. He is growing like a weed, becoming more and more witty by the day. The things he comes up with are hilarious. This morning we were laying on the couch together and he farted and i said almost at the same time, man im hungry, he said well why don you eat my fart? Dude he looked serious.
So today he is a solider cowboy. he is walking around with a gun stuffed in the pocket of his army pants, pretending he is wearing cowboy boots.
He put new batteries in an old remote we have, and you should have seen how excited he was that he "fixed" the remote.
Well that is my life so far, im sure more has happened but my Sims are calling me so i must run now ;)
I will come back later and post more...bye!

Thankful
Ok so i was going to blog today about how much in my life has gone wrong...then i was flipping through the TV and i found a movie just starting! Whoo Hoo lucky me, i will actually get to watch a whole movie!
The movie was "The Pursuit of Happiness". For any of you who have seen this movie I am sure you will agree with me when i say that this is an incredibly hard movie to watch. The character Chris goes through so much, for his family and ultimately for his son!
This movie has led me to the conclusion that my life is perfect compared to the way this characters life was, compared to so many homeless families out there in the real world. So many times we, or i rather, take things for granted: my home, my finances, my food, my clothes, my shower, my son, my husband, my family, my God, My life!
So instead of dwelling on the bad, my views, however temporary they may be, have changed. I am thankful for everything i have, from the Prego jar im holding my pens in, to the car i drive, and everything in-between.
I thank God that i am blessed with a family that loves and supports me, whenever i need it.
I thank God for a husband who is the best, whose heart beats next to mine, who has the patience to deal with my personality, and who at the end of a really bitchy premenstrual day...still loves me.
I thank God for my son, who forgives me when i lose my temper, who forgives me when i play plant tycoon all day long and don’t play with him, who thinks im just great, and LOVES me for who i am, his momma.
I thank God for all the friends ive had, who have listened to me and gave me advice i actually can use.
I thank God for my best friends forever who love my big ole booty, play bingo with me, and encourage my karaoke singing, ya they must really love me.
I thank God for My brother, who is hilarious yet serious, who taught me so many naughty things and gave me my first tattoo.
I thank God for my sister, who endured me being mean to her when she wanted to just be around me, who showed me how a baby is born, who never judges me when its really my idea to eat a whole box of banana twins and drink a sixer of coke, who lets me open everything first because she got to open the Selena CD or was it a tape?
I thank God for my momma who showed me how to be a wife and a mother, who made me get up and cook for my husband, who frowned on me when i purposely left the ring on his bologna sandwiches, who loved me when i was bad, who i secretly just want to hold me when im sad, or sick, or lonely.
THANK YOU GOD FOR MY LIFE!
