Well today started out a bit frustrating but did get better. Last night, or shall I say this morning, Josh and I stayed up til 2 a.m. watching Shark Tale. Needless to say, I was dead tired this morning when I was awakened at 5 a.m. by Staff Duty looking for my husband, who is in Tennessee. Love those army guys! I had to call him to let him know he needed to call whoever it was that was looking for him. Ding dongs.
Well, in an effort to get healthy, I bought the Wal*Mart brand of Special K with berries. It's delicious....so....I ate the entire 12 oz box today :| Not so healthy. All these thoughts of moving have gotten me completely stressed out. Stressed spelled backwards is desserts! I have to say though, that cereal was darn good! And I don't even feel bad about it.
I finally took Charlie to the mall tonight so he could get himself some new jeans. We went to Aeropostale so he could get the cool brands. I'm embarrassed even stepping foot in there because it is so teeny bopper and I'm just so old and uncool. Kids crack me up thinking that certain brands make the clothes cool. They will wear the most ridiculous things and think that it's cool as long as it's name brand. Charlie is more interested in a particular style. He isn't so much into the brand thing. It still drives me nuts. He is very particular about his clothes and has been since he was about 5. When he was in preschool he would not wear shirts that touched the crease of his arm where his elbow bends. He would always tell me it "fothered" (bothered) him for his sleeves to touch there. He has kept that tradition alive all these years.
I finally got that giant mound of laundry, that has been sitting in my room for about 5 days, folded. I was sure glad to get that done. Now all I have to do is wash about 5 more loads and put away about 12 loads and then I'll be done!
I can't wait for Charles to get home this weekend. He made reservations for the family to stay at the Stratosphere when we head out next month. Whenever we move we try to make it a little mini vacation so the kids can get excited about uprooting their lives! It hasn't been so bad before but now that Charlie and Ryan are older it's a little harder. Anyway, we are pretty psyched about getting to stop in Vegas. The Stratosphere has a pool where you can opt not to wear a top. We'll pass that up. The last thing I need is for someone to be staring at my south bound twins, for heaven's sake. But why would anyone feel the need to go topless in public? I mean, is there not anything sacred? Ridiculous!
Well I better get in the bed....we have 9:00 church these days. It's killer.

Surely what you meant to say was, "The last thing I need is for someone OTHER THAN CHARLES to be staring at my south bound twins....." Right? Besides, they're not really southbound. :-)
Ashley, You never told me about the box of cereal. It beats the gallon of ice cream I have eaten the last few days. I mean, what else is there to do when all you can do is lay around in discomfort. This has been rediculous and I am glad to be feeling a bit better today. I am telling you, I am pretty sure Josh could have still been a little sick yesterday :)
