Yes, Yes, I am very far behind on everything. Trust me, I realize this.
I managed to lose all passwords and access to my server for the most part. But I had a wonderful hour and half, almost two hour conversation with tech support from my host and I am back in business. I am working on getting everything back up and fully updated, but it will be a process.
I have also added the ability to update the site via my phone, so I should be able to post more often with the littlest things LOL. At least I will try to.
So what is all going on?
Lets see. The school year has ended. Grades have been posted! This year's grades are current. I need to go and do a back fill, will get to that... eventually. Derric is now officially a Middle Schooler! That boy has moved out of the Elementary Field and will attend Hacker Middle in the fall. Where has the time gone? Dokota is officially a Senior. So next school year will be filled with getting him graduated and off to college. I swear, time is just flying by! Xavier is on his last year of Jr. High! Wow, he starts the fall as an 8th Grader?! And Miss. Kauchana will be in the 10th grade this fall. Wow. Everyone is moving on.
For here at the home, Kevin is off on Deployment. 35 Days down, no clue on how many to go.
Xavier is preparing to head down to Arizona with his one-on-one time with the Grandparents. Dokota and Kauchana are looking to get Y.E.S. employment here on the base this summer, along with whatever else they have going on. Kauchana is looking to spend her spare time babysitting and taking swimming lessons. Dokota has Boy's State in June. Derric has his Extended School Year starting June 3rd, where he will have school until mid July. Busy summer.
Well, guess that is enough to somewhat get you updated on what is going on. I will work on keeping this site updated more now that I have all passwords and such. That is what I get for keeping my information on a small sheet of paper in the back of a book. But now I am good lol.

Another School Year Down
17 August 2012
Back to Normal
Many things have been happening that have thrown our family threw a loop this year.
Slowly, things are settling and getting back to normal. It is never fun having life interrupted, but we learn to adjust and re-settle.
The kids are home, Xavier is out of his cast, and Derric is back to being Derric. School has started and the kids are slowly falling back into a school routine. The hardest hit has been Dokota. With no sleep schedule during the summer, he is now finding it hard to sleep at night and actually get up in the morning. I had hoped I could get him back to being close to adjusted in the two weeks he was home before school started, but it is just not happening. It is going to take a lot of time and hopefully it wont effect him to much with school.
Xavier goes in on Monday to get his thumb looked at, but in all honesty, he will have to attend physical therapy. He found many ways to get around using his thumb, even when giving him things to do to work on it. Took away the motion controlled games and gave him old school D-Pad games, but he still found ways to not use his thumb and play them. Reminding him daily, hourly, sometimes minutely did nothing. So, not listening to anyone, he has let his thumb sit. Monday we will get the referral to physical therapy and he will be forced to work it. He will learn that we were not lieing and it will be painful because they will not be nice about it.
Kauchana seems happy to be home, back in her bed, with her stuff, meeting up with her friends. Being able to disappear for hours and not be bothered, headphones in her ears just like Dokota. (tho she will scowl if told that) And like Dokota, her nose is stuck to the iPod, texting and playing games. Or head phones in listening to music while she is curled up on the couch reading a book. Ever so much the teenage girl she is.
The biggest adjustment has been with Derric. He has latched to Dokota and Kauchana like glue. He can't really handle them being out of his site for long now. He has to be near one of them almost at all times.
School:
there really isn't much to say in that field yet. Today is only their third day and everything is still settling with classes. There were a couple of teachers for Xavier I just didn't care for, Kauchana seems to enjoy most of her teachers, and Dokota is, well, Dokota. He is working on getting out of one class and also seeing about getting things set up so he can have Senior status after the semester so next year he can spread his classes out and get a job.
Well, that is about it. Time for me to get back into my morning routine and get out the door soon for physical therapy. Oh the joy.
