What the hell am I thinking?

Seriously... like I need another excuse to spend time online right? Well, here I am anyway. Officially joining the land of the bloggers! Does that make me a geek or is it cool to journal online? I usually keep an old fashioned paper and pen journal, but I type a million words a minute and typing hurts my hands less :P okay, okay... truth is, I am too lazy to keep up with my paper and pen. Now that that's out of the way, I guess I will start with a mini intro, although anyone reading this most likely already knows me and is aware of all my maddness and antics. Oh well, indulge me for a moment anyway...

Me, I am Jamie. Mom to 4 groovy kids, and step mom to one. Mostly boys, 4 out of 5, but finally God heard my begging and pleading and made my uterus's last ditch effort for a girl a reality! woo hoo! Thank you Jesus! :) Seriously, Olivia is the greatest thing. She is gorgeous, a true miracle and without a doubt, the love of my husband's life. That leads me to another badge I wear. Wife. Been married, quite happily, for just shy of 4 years. Our anniversary is on the horizon. Pretty neat thing, this marriage business. I suppose everyone sees their share of peaks and valley's but I can say without pause that we have hit only one valley, and it wasn't too deep. We are good. Life is good. He, the husband, Jeremy, is my lobster. Totally my soul mate and who I was meant for. We could not be more different, but when we sit down and look at our wants, needs and priorities, we match up line for line. Really, he is pretty amazing. Next badge; student. I am a forever student it seems. Plugging away at getting my nursing degree. I am no where near, but I refuse to stop. I will get my RN and have a career even if I don't see that day until I am 57. Oh, quick note about the wife thing. I am a military wife, and from what I gather, we are a whole different breed. More to come on that front. Um, let's see, what else? Oh, ok- daughter. Great parents, although it took me lots o years to appreciate pop, but I am there now. We are good, and I am grateful. Mommy's girl all the way. Mom is my best friend, my rock, my silver lining. I have one sister and she is gorgeous! She has 3 beautiful baby boys and I hope as time goes on we get to spend more time together. Right now, the country divides us.

Ok, more later. Mommy duties call.
