Still storming....

I havent posted close to a month and not because I been enjoying the sunshine, but because I been so busy dealing with these storms in our lives.

Okay so update...with the job situation, hubby is working at a local place until we wait to see whats going on.
He got offered a job with an overseas company that if we get it its the solution to our problems, but for us to get he needs some shots, bloodwork, and dental and that got to come out of pocket. Right now we are trying to get everything together for him to be able to deploy with this company. Yesterday we just got hit with another nasty storm. The army fucked up his teeth so bad that it will cost us a lot of money to fix it in order for him to qualify for this overseas job (your dental has to be perfect since you wont have access to a dentist for a yr), so we dont know what we will do.

His old job in Kuwait, they finally got him a visa, but because we changed his flight 3 times before because of this visa drama, when we went to change it the 4th time delta said nope cant change it. Sorry!!

SO right now we have the decision of either taking the money that he is making at the local job and buying a ticket back to kuwait or taking the money and doing the stuff for the other overseas company that will solve our lives. I dont know what will do!


Now for home life..living with my parents got so stressfull, we finally had to move out. Our amazing friends took us in. 4 adults, 2 dogs and 5 kids in a 3/2 is chaotic at times, but they have been like our fairy godmothers helping us with everything and anything they can. We owe them big time and never will be able to repay their kindness. Trully a gift.

Our relationship with my parents is slowly building again now that we are not under the same roof. It will take time and I dont ever know if it will fully. I been so busy with everything else, I havent really had the time to process. Just another ol pot at the back of the cabinet. Oh well!!.

The kids are doing amazing. Tyler is living with 4 little girls and even though he is developing a strong love for princess and barbie stuff, he is also being a lot more kinder and caring. This huge dose of hormone is doing wonderful for him ;)

Juliet is fully walking and learning new things everyday. SHe is my easy child. Kids like her, I would have 5..lol. My favorite thing she does latetly is when I pucker up to give her a kiss she leans her forehead to my lips. Such a cuddlebug.

So that is what life is right now. Overlly chaotic, aboslutely insane and extremelly hard right now, but full of joy and laughter and besides, the longest storm I know have lasted 40 days, so soon the sun will have to shine!

I want to get off, pretty please!

Get me out of this rollecoaster ride please. If its not one thing is another and I am sick and tired of puking. OMG!
Hubby came home on leave for a job opportunity. We got through his flight being delayed, he got home went to the job interview. Everything was great. We were already planning, dreaming and hoping. Well as he is about to go back to kuwait, burocracy has kept them for providing a new visa. No biggie. We extend his flight and a couple more days with us sounds heavenly. Well now we just found out they are not processing any visas, we have no idea when they will process his, his job is in limbo and the job he came home for?? He doesnt qualify bc you have to pass a DOT physical and have 20/40 vision. Yeahh dont got that! on top of them fucking up his pay!

So now back to the drawing board. Unemployment has been filed for, over 100 applications has been put in and we wait and wait. Wait for them to process visas, hope and pray delta will extend his flight once more, wait for any of these jobs to pan out, wait for a miracle, wait and wait. Did I tell you I have absolutetly no patience??

So yeahh get me off this ride because I am sick and tired of walking on eggshells with these people that birthed me and even though they took us in, they only did it as another weapon to throw in our faces. Gosh how did this happen??

Pretty soon we will start asking her :



before we make any decisions. I bet she will guide us better than what we are doing right now!

Very welcomed surprises .....

When you are an almost 30 yr man, with a wife and 2 kids to support and a job interview out of state. Probably the most important job interview of your life, and you are feeling old, with bunions and a beer gut starting to show, there is nothing more rewarding than going to pick up your rental car aka: the cheapest one called an aveo or something. A matchbox car that no one wants it but one that does the job for the penny counting people, and the guy at the car rental place tells you they are out of the aveo and they will give you this for the exact same price :



You feel like the moons are aligned, that this is meant to be, the beer gut feels like a 6 pack, the thinning hair is a figment of your imagination, and you feel like you can kick arse. Never mind the wife that has her heart in her hands for 2 whole days while you are gone, stressing and worrying about this job interview, praying and hoping you dont get a ticket and cheering you all the way. None of that matters, because the top is down, the thinning hair is flying and you are chasing your dreams =)

Cause and effect!!!!

Because of this :




I didnt get to see him :





this week :(

I have a couple of dirty words about that. But mainly I just cant believe our luck that a stupid volcano in Iceland far away from either of us (and we are in 2 completetly different countries/continents) would affect his travel plans. That ladies and gentleman is the curveballs life throws at you. Some like to think its all part of a big plan and that one day we will see the whole plan and be thankfull for this curveball. I like to believe that. Give me a couple days for me to boil it over and I might get there. There is always next week, if the skies are clear. Here is to hoping bc hoping is all I got right now.

....(pick a title)

Every so often I seen bloggers ask their audience to pick a title, so since this picture cracks me up and leaves me without words, I am giving you guys the job :)

Oops a daisy...

Just look at the dictionary, under "rubberneck" you will see my picture. If I know everyone is okay, I am a damn proud rubberneck and not only did I "Rubber neck", I drove down the street, made a uturn just to catch every angle. There is just something beautiful about this kind of accidents. Its so intriguing to me because its out of the ordinary. Oops a daisy. I guess someone made a u-turn too fast!!

Florida Humor...

Every so often I torture myself with horrible nasty drivers sharing a major highway, drive 30 or so minutes to a town or two south of me to enjoy some Brazillian yumminess. I do it because it reminds me of chidlhood, family, friends, and just home and if I cant have "home", I have to settle for the food.
Well stopped at a light (the longest light I have exerienced), I look to my left and its a fire department and this amazing fountain caught my eye. Its like 90 something. So freaking hot so this water is actually soothing. I am enjoying this fountain, until my eyes adjust (I need to my glasses more often) and I notice this deer. A deer in the middle of a fountain is not my first choice of animal. I didnt understand it, so therefore I wipped out my camera and took a picture (I am telling you this light took forever) and I was going to ponder on this later. Well I get my brazillian food, soak on all the joy that it brings me, grab the baby and brace myself for the trip home. As I am leaving, I pass through a sign that says "Thank you for visiting Deerfield beach" and like a lightining bulb, it clicks. Deer in the middle of a beautiful waterfall is to symbolize Deerfield beach. Get it?? Deer Deerfield??



Stupid Florida humor goes over my head. I did giggle, not because of the whole deer thing, but because it bugged me and I actually took the time to take a picture and blog about it...lol.

I need to go back to school or to work or something. My brain is turning into mush, if you dont believe, read above ;)

Almost wordless Wednesday

Happy Easter everyone :)

During the bunny chasing, sugar rush every Easter brings, dont forget to take the time to think about the true meaning of today. He has risen indeed :)
