• I have been a tad busy lately but I am determined to keep posting.  Been helping out a friend whose little one has been sick for a while but now things seem to be taking a turn for the better.  Thank God! Getting ready for the movers, they come next week!  I feel like I have a ton of stuff to do, yet I find myself wondering what to do. 

  It is Teacher's Appreciation this week.  I am Jake's room mom so I had to organzie that.  Haven't had any time to sub this week, had to pass up three jobs...but that is okay. 

  Going to see my doctor today for the last time.  I really like this guy (In the military our primary care doc changes every couple of years.  I have had three while living here for the past 4 years).  Hate to leave him, and I hate starting over.  I have high blood pressure.  I have found that when my meds are working and all is well that's when I usually get a new doc.  He sees how good the readings are and suggests that we try lowering the amount of meds or go off of them completely.  I would be all for that except when we do it  the readings go all over the place.  Instead of putting me on the same meds I was on we try something new and thus the whole process starts over.  Well, now that I am in my 40's I am starting to learn how to use the word "No".  If this should happen in NJ, I will make the decision to tell the doctor no.  I have had high blood pressure since I was about 19/20.  It did not matter what my weight was I had it.  In fact the first time a doctor said I had it I was 9, but the next doc that we saw for a follow up on that said I did not....ARGH!!!! It is a genetic thing.  My mom, grandmother, sisters, and aunt have it.  Not that weight doesn't factor into it, it does.  But you know those commercials where they say if you just loose 10 pounds your blood pressure will improve...sorry it doesn't with me. 

  So now that I totally went off on a tangent there...I had not idea I would blog about all that...

  My intention was to post a few pictures from the air show...so here goes.

    

                            These three were so tired by the end of the day.    There is a lady hanging on the wing on the right side.  She  climbed on top too!

   

                                                 AF Cadets, they were cute!!!               A little sensitive to the noise

   

  The rest are of the Thunderbirds.  They are awesome!!!!

   

  

  Well that's it for now, got to take a bratty little kid to school and then off to the doctor to hear about how I can loose weight...I know how, heard it all before, just don't have the motivation to do it.  Anybody got a motivation pill for me to swallow?
