How bad can I be?

By -
It rained, rained, rained last night and this morning. I thought it would rain all day.

The girls slept in until 8 am this morning. That never happens. I didn't complain, just enjoyed the peace and quiet that was our home.

We were slow, slow, slow to get moving this morning. I'm guessing the weather.

I did get to some of my Monday chores that I missed out doing yesterday. Not much, but I at least worked through the kitchen. I'll be playing catch up the rest of the week.

By the afternoon, the sun came out. It was still a little breezy but not bad temperature wise.

After Millie took her nap, I loaded the jogger and took the girls to Fall Line Trace.

Oh my gosh, I hate running with the double jogger. I didn't really like running with the single, but the double feels like I'm moving boulders the whole entire time! Maybe that will help me improve my run time?

So I had to go slow, slow, slow. Just like the rest of my day.

I don't know why Millie looks so special here? Maybe because I didn't brush her hair and she picked out her tights. I don't think I posted this, but she broke the strap to her glasses on the way home from Angie's. I've called the eye doctor for a replacement strap and I'm currently waiting for it to come in.

Square pants.

A few things about Autumn today.

1. She informed me that she was "allergic to moxicillin, penicillin and Millie."

2. She had a dream about spongebob. Apparently he was cooking crabby patties for Squidward and it made Squidward smile.

Autumn climbed up on the swing like that and started singing,

"How bad can I be?"



Honestly, I wasn't sure if it was a question or a statement of challenge! Then she told me, "You're fired!" in the tone of the dude on Cat in the hat.



After running, we came home and I made dinner for the girls. I ate tuna fish because my beef stew lunch was so heavy. Then I suddenly remembered that Miss Keri wanted me to bring in cupcakes for Autumn's birthday class tomorrow. UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We left and went to Sam's. Autumn picked out Dora and Boots cupcakes. I will ask Miss Keri to share with Millie's class since there are 30 cupcakes and 12 kids in Autumn's class.

I also grabbed the trash bags from Sam's. I bet these will not last as long as the Costco bags did. Can you believe this is the first time since leaving Alaska we needed to buy trash bags. Bring back my COSTCO!

Autumn is in bed now. Millie is going as soon as I'm done typing.

I love you.

Your current wife and favorite airman. xoxo

The count: 118 and 109 days of being bad!

Autumn and I began the day shoveling the driveway. That is much more work than it sounds like. I had to get us both suited up for the ten degree weather, put her in the backpack, then head on out. It took us about an hour to finish the driveway and when we came back in, poor little Autumn's face had frost nip on it. She has now had frost nip twice. Later today, we went to visit Snowzilla. Frosty the Snowzilla man is huge!!! The local government is trying to put a stop to Snowzilla citing a building code violation. Well, I say down with the man!!!! Keep Snowzilla up. He isn't hurting anything. Anyway, here is a photo of Autumn and me with Frosty the Snowzilla man. Here is a related article in the Anchorage Daily News.

I hear clank, clank, clank in the kitchen. This cannot be good, grab the camera first though- for proof. You never know what you might find. Uh huh! AUTUMN!! What mom? I wasn't doing anything! So I've moved the knives for now, but it is only temporary. They need to go in a locked cabinet. I took Autumn's step stool upstairs to our bathroom so she could brush her teeth. I think I'm going to head back to Target and buy another one. I'm lazy and do not want to drag one up/down the stairs. Autumn really enjoys brushing her teeth.... with MY toothbrush! Say AHHHHHHH- checking to make sure she did a good job. She is so funny. Autumn and I are going to head downtown after nap time to see about the ice sculptures and check out the Christmas lights. Remember that house in South Anchorage that does the Christmas lights to music over FM radio? This year is the last year, he is moving and his new neighborhood cannot support the traffic. He may set them up somewhere e

I've gone back in forth in my mind a million times as to whether or not I should even write what I'm getting ready to write. When I think really hard about it, the truth is, I need to write it. I need the essence of who I am to be preserved somewhere. How I came to the decisions that I did, where my mind was at, where my heart was at in it. I need something that my children can look back on and try to understand me, or at least the essence of me. This tale begins about a month ago. I found a lump in my left breast while I was in the shower. I always do my breast exams in the shower. I'm pretty faithful about it too. About once a month or so, I check around and make sure I don't feel anything weird. That isn't easily done, you see, I have lumpy breasts, so I really don't know what I'm looking for. Lumpy breasts run in my family. This one particular day, about a month ago, I felt something that felt weird to me, but I was unsure about it.
