they finially paid!

Well my renters paid rent today, only 21 days!! They even paid the late fee. I was beginning to worry that they were not going to pay and expect the their deposit to cover their rent for this month. Everyone is telling me to keep their deposit. I am thinking I will, because my house looks bad. No they did not make holes in the wall in the floor. But they did not give me 30 days notice, which in the contract it says they were suppose to give 30 days (In some ways they only gave me 5 days notice!). Then have not been water the lawn for the last two months and it looks it. Their dogs have dug holes in the yard. They are trying to say that when the veranda roof fell it ripe / broke the cover on the hot tub. But they don't know I took picture of it back in March and the cover did not look like it does now!!! Two the of the bedroom curtains need to replaced. Yesterday one of my renter told me that two of the smoke dectors fell down! ok if fell then why did they not tell when it happen so I could fix it??? I hate renting. I don't under stand why people do not take of things?



So what do you think, should I keep the deposit? I have not seen all of the house yet. I do the finially walk though on Friday.

how far along are you?

that is what I was asked this evening! I politely told her I already had the babies, but it is ok because I have not lost the weight. I felt so bad for the lady. The look on her face just broke my heart. I told it is ok. I laughed and told her I still needed to lose the baby weight. As I was walking out the store I was thinking as least I look pregnant and not just fat.

after I got home I started to really think about it and got kind of sad. I had my babies two years go and I am still fat!

New address!

I finally got my new address this afternoon. Oh my goodness I am moving in just little over a month from now! I can't believe it, time went by really fast. I have pretty much been living at my Mom's since February. Sam deployed a couple months later and is due home soon. For those of you that knew where I lived before I am moving back to the same area just a couple houses up the street! I am so glad that I am moving back to my old street. I loved my neighbors. I knew I was going to live in the same community but I was not sure about the street. I can't tell you all how excited I am. The only bad thing is I wanted to move at the beginning of next month but to get the street I wanted I had to move at the end of the month. Oh have I mention how exited I am???

In case anyone wanted to know Gwen is doing very well. She stopped telling me her tummy was hurting after she woke up from her nap this afternoon. Yea they took a nap! I did not thing they were going to take a nap because we woke up at 9:30 this morning but after I wrote that post this morning I went and gave them both a bath to help cool Gilbert's temp. After the bath I dressed them and put Gilbert on my bed while I went to do some laundry and he fell asleep! I kept Gwen up. Then a half hour later I asked her if she was ready for a nap too. She told me yes! They both took about a three hour nap. Gilbert woke up from his nap in a good mood; usually he is very grump after that long of a nap. He still had a temp so I gave him some more Tylenol and we watch Pooh. He did not eat anything today but he drank plenty. I checked his temp this evening before bed and it is still high, so I gave him some more Tylenol and it brought it back down so I think everything is fine. I am hoping tomorrow will be a better day then today.

I was going to blog about this last night never got to it.

My renters came to me yesterday and told me they were moving out at the end of them month. I am so upset. They are only giving me 15 days notice! on the lease they were suppose to give me 30 days!! I have turned the check so many times while they lived in my house. They only had four people on the lease but they had double that. I had four "single" people sign the lease but I know for a fact that they all has their girlfriends living there too but I figured it was not a big deal because they were paying the rent every month and the house was still standing. They were not suppose to be smokers but it turns out they were but I always notice they smoked outside so I figure it was not big deal. Today when I was looking at the house I notice the garage smelt like smoke. I think they have been smoking in there!!! I am so upset. I was not planning on finding new tenants. I asked them two months ago if they were going to stay in the house after their lease was up and they told me yes. I should have had them resign back then. It is a good / bad thing. I was just not panning on on having to find someone.

If anyone knows of someone that needs a place to rent in Sandy, Utah, I have a house that will be available next month. Here is my ad http://www.ksl.com/index.php?nid=218&ad=4272913&cat=

Last night

Last night right at bed time Gwen started to throw up!! I felt so bad for her. She did not have a fever but she was really pale, so there was really nothing I could do for her beside holding and comforting her. She threw for four hour, off and on, so finally at eleven I took her to the ER, to see if they could give her some antinausea stuff. We sat in the waiting room for a half hour; we were the only ones in there. Finally they took us back to a room where we sat for an hour and half!!! No one ever came in and saw us. Gwen was dry heaving when we first got into the room but had not for a half hour and now she was finally sleepy and was telling me she wanted to go home. I was getting very frustrated just sitting there so we left. I was just going to leave (and no one even looked at us or tried to stop us, but I left like I should say something. So on the way out the door I said something to the nurse just sitting there. She told me I need to sign a paper saying we left. I told her why I was leaving and she told me they were really busy. I am sorry I don't care how "busy" they were someone should have came into the room to make sure everything was ok. So I felt like maybe I was making something out of nothing.

When we got home Gwen still had not thrown up any more so we went to bed in my bed, this was at about 1230 am. At about 2 am I heard throwing up and realize Gwen was no longer in my bed and the throwing up were coming from Gilbert's bed. I thought oh great Gwen climbed into bed with Gilbert and is now throwing up on Gilbert!! I hurried and picked up what I thought was Gwen when I suddenly realized that it was Gilbert! He was the throwing up and he had a temp! He was not burning up but it was higher than usual, nothing that worried me. I cleaned him up and took him to bed with me. That is when I realized that Gwen was a sleep on the floor by my bed. (Side note for those that do not know we are right now living at my mom's while Sam is deployed and we are all sleeping in one room) Gilbert pretty much threw all night/morning. It was nothing big just small amount. That he always threw up in a bowl so it was nothing to clean up. Which made it easy I would hear him start to gag and give him the bowl. After he did his thing we then would go back to sleep. Gwen woke up a couple of times and asked for her sippy. I told her no because I knew she would just throw it up. She would cry a little and go back to sleep.

I pretty much got no sleep. The last time I looked at the clock it was 6 am, which is our usual wake up time. But Gwen and Gilbert slept in until 930 am!!! That has never happened before. So I think I got two a half hours of undisturbed sleep.

Gwen is doing ok this morning/afternoon. She tells me her tummy hurt but she has not thrown up. Gilbert still is warm. I took his temp and it is 100.6 so it not warrants going to the doctor. He asked for a milk sippy this morning. I did not really want to give it to him but he asked for it so I gave in and gave it to him. He did throw up a little of it but not all of it

2 years 2 months & 2 weeks

yep Gwen and Gilbert are now 2 years, 2 months and 2 weeks old!

Can anyone explain . . .

to me why a 3 pack boy's underwear are a dollar more then a 3 pack girls underwear?? I have gone to several places and it like that at all of them. Another thing I don't understand is why boys underwear has the pictures on the back of them and the girls has it on the front of them. These are the things I am pondering today.

I am so proud of Gwenith and Gilbert! both of them did not have an accident this morning!!!! We even went to the store with both of them wearing underwear and had no accidents!!! Gilbert pulled down his own pants and went potty all by himself with out telling me he had to, this morning! Gwen used the "big potty" when we got home :) I am so proud of them!

seven years ago - I was in boot camp

can you believe it has been sevens since that tragic day. It seems so unreal to me still though. For those for you that don't know I was in boot camp that day. I was on week 7 (or was week 5, I can't remember now). That is when we do service for boot camp. I was a medical yeomen and was assigned to the (galley) mess hall. I was suppose to make sure everyone was working where they were suppose to and doing what they were suppose to be doing. I was walking around with another medical yeomen from another division. He (I really wish I could remember his name) was telling me he heard someone talking about an airplane flying into the world trade center. He was worried about his dad because he flies air planes. I told him there is no way that happened and it was just made up. The air plane would have to be flying really low and I high doubted that. Turns out I was wrong! With in an hour we heard the MSs (they guys in charge of us, they are now called CS in the Navy) talking about it. So I pulled one aside and asked him if it was true. He told he was not suppose to tell me this yet but yes it was. With in a half hour all of medical yeomen was called into the office we were told what happened. We were told to keep a close eye on our division and to make sure no one does anything stupid. The MSs were going to muster everyone together after the breakfast was done being served and tell everyone what had happened. They pretty much just told us that the rumor was true that A plane flew into a building in New York and a lot of people did not make it. That was all they told us and our RDCs would tell us more when we got back to our barracks that evening. The rest of the serving day was very solemn. I had to go around and make sure everyone was not freaking out. Boot camp was pretty much in lock down. We could not go anywhere. We could not leave the galley to go back to the barracks until our RDC that was three people that were in charge of my division) came to get us, the day before I had marched us back but I could no longer do that. the walk/march back was very quiet. When we got back to our barracks our RDCs told use more that happened. They told us that we could go up the the boys compartment (I forgot what we called it) to watch the News on TV but we had to just sit there and not talk. So all the girls went to the floor above us, where the boys in our division lived, to watch the News. We were only allowed to watch about ten minutes it because some girls started to cry so we had to turn off the TV and go back down to our room. What we did see what the same footage of the planes flying into the building, that is all I remember. We went back down to our compartment and talked about what we saw. Boot camp was very weird after that day. We were pretty much on lock down for about two or three weeks afterwards, I think we were until graduation. I never really got to see much on 9/11 until a week later when I went home on emergency leave (my uncle died not in 9/11). I remember being in the airport waiting for my plain to fly back home and looking all the magazines and news paper on it. I so badly wanted to buy one but could not Backus I had not money. I asked the guy at the counter to tell me what was going on because I knew nothing, I explained to him I was in boot camp. I can't remember what he told me.

To me it seem so unreal, almost like it was a movie, even now days. I think it has to do with I was in boot camp and was sheltered from all the broadcast that was done on it. Within six weeks after graduated from boot camp I went to my first ship and then on a seven month deployment.
