Just a little bit of everything

So when I started this blog I would blog more often than I have been I guess you could say I'm in a blogger slump. So we are past our first month of deployment thank goodness. I am so ready for July to get here it will be a super busy month. July has a bunch of small events happening and then my friend Jen will be here around the 13th and stay about 2 weeks and I am super excited. Knowing after she leaves the kids will start school a few days after then John will be home for r and r a few months after that. I am so looking forward to r and r even though we will not be doing much of anything. I am hoping he will be home for his birthday it all depends when he leaves from there. Calling around for tackle football I can not find any that Dax is old enough to play he played tackle when we lived in Oklahoma and I do not want to put him in flag for one year then the following year I will be able to put him in tackle. So I think I will find another sport for him to play this year thinking maybe karate might him let out some of his anger and to control it really thinking about it. So we finally did our month weigh in and taping to say I was upset is an understatement. I am truly disappointed in myself. I only lost 7 and 7/8 of an inch I know I have to step it up in order to meet my goals. I want most of my weight off by the time he comes home for r and r. I am still having a hard time getting use to this deployment and not getting to talk to John very often. I know I need to stop comparing it to last deployment but its so hard. I am planning our family vacation and then john and I's get away for next June. Planning two things at once is a little difficult but I pretty much have our family vacation to California planned on what we want to do. Probably in January I will make all the reservations needed for it. The Hawaii trip for me and John we will be booking flights in November for it I am hoping to find some good flight deals for it. I am finally going to the doctor this week about my shins I'm so tired of them killing me. I sure hope this week flies by.
