Holy crap....2 months

and I did not have time to write anything.

It has been pretty busy here. I am working both jobs, full time at home and I am SUPPOSED to be per diem at the hospital, but I have been putting in 24-36 hours a week there. So between work and sleep, I have about 30 seconds of free time every day!

Monday morning, John and I are leaving for Disney. Jerry is staying here with all the kids. Poor guy. I think this is the last time he will agree to this arrangement, so we better enjoy our trip.

I am in my usual pre-flying panic mode, edgy and cranky and all OCD...all the time. I have some other things going on that I might share on here one of these days, but today is just not a good day.

We are bringing the laptop to Florida so John can keep up with his class, but I am going to try and snag a little time on it here and there to make an attempt to type stuff. lol

I figure this trip is 4 days long....maybe..just MAYBE...I can tell you about them all. Well, most of it. This is an anniversary trip, so you may not want to hear everything!!!

Before I get into vent mode, I am getting away from this keyboard. I don't want this to turn into an every 2 month bitchfest! Besides, I have to get in some hours for my at home job tonight.

So if you stopped in, have a great weekend. Hopefully, I will be talking to you live (somewhat) from Animal Kingdom Lodge (concierge level, aren't we just the fanciest little rednecks!) in a couple of days!

Muah!

So you can keep us straight as I ramble:

Steph - That's ME. A little nuts, 35 years old. I work at home because for some reason I thought that would be a swell idea. I was mistaken. I have gone to Nursing and started medical school and then decided neither one suited me. I have recently become somewhat memory challenged, I have been told it is stress. I have OCD. I have a good sense of humor about it, and about a lot of other things. I have a pretty dark (and sometimes dirty) sense of humor. Don't say I did not warn you.
John - My husband, also a little nuts, though not formally diagnosed. He is 36. He is Court and Tom's stepdad. Court occasionally calls him Lumpy. I am not sure why. He is a 50% disabled veteran. He has Gulf War Syndrome. THere really is no ONE Gulf War Syndrome, apparently. All I know is he came back from Iraq and gets these huge, itchy rashes all over, including in his eyes. They are horrific and no one can tell us what the hell they are. Actually that may be why Court calls him Lumpy. I have diagnosed it as "creeping crud."
Courtney - My oldest. She is 15. You will probably hear alot about her, hopefully some of it will be good. She just started high school and thinks we are complete dunderheads. Unfortunately for her, we are not. She also thinks she is in charge. -insert hysterical laughter here-
Tom - My 13-year-old. We say he is in "Tommy World" most of the time. Unfortunately, Tommy World does not include homework. It also seems he was given an attitude for his 13th birthday. Fantastic! He has always been kind of a Mom's boy and hates to make me mad. All together now: Awwwww. -gag-
Gainey - Her given name is Morgaine. My sister calls her Midge. We sometimes call her Princess Yeti to annoy her. She is 5 and pretty smart (and smart-assed) for her age. Thinks she actually IS a princess and we are her servants. Her name? Yes, she is named after King Arthur's 1/2 sister, from Mists of Avalon by Harriet Zimmer Bradley. She is also exceptionally small. Johnnie is bigger and we are asked frequently if they are twins or if he is older.
Johnnie - Our youngest. He just turned 3 in December. He is a pretty BIG boy. Alternates between completely psycho and completely loveable. Makes me laugh alot, although if he didn't, I would probably cry. We are about to embark on potty training. That ought to make for some good blog posts for you.
Jerry - Though he does not live with us, you may hear about him. He is my ex, Court and Tom's dad. We get along really well, which is why I will bitch and moan about him, because I can get away with it. He is also 35. We talk almost daily. As you can imagine, that goes over well with the ladies.
