Time for another post.

It was brought to my attention that I havent posted in quite a while by my sister. Not much has happened, Kennedy and Kyler come for their visits ever couple of months and we have fun and they dont like going home but I have no control over that. I wish I did because I would love for them to stay with me.
I am extremely sore from helping Dad with the pavers, you can see pictures of them if you go to his blog. But it is going away slowly and I can walk and stand from a sitting position without wincing. And I will once again start working out as I regularly did prior to helping. Trying to lose some weight and gain some muscle. Well that is all right now.

An update.

So in December my case for more visitation and custody for Kennedy and Kyler came to a close with me getting joint legal custody and the kids for half of ever school break they have. So far I have had them twice and will have them again the end of this month. Every visit has been nice, I wish I could take time off from work to be with them while they are here. But I cant do that since I am not allowed any time off during rotations. Training the soldiers prior to their deployments is a constant thing and is a 24/7 job, which is very important. Having been deployed and having not received the training I was due before my deployment I want everyone else to be prepared as I wasnt.
The only problem I have right now is child support, I am shelling out more than half of what I take home in child support, to Kennedy and Kyler alone. That isnt including Kyliena's child support. This seemed totally fair to the judge in the hearing, which amazes me. I dont see how the state of California can think that a person can live on so little money. And if it werent for my parents, who I am extremely grateful for, I wouldnt be able to live. They let me stay with them, they give me a place to live and food to eat.
In all, I am blessed to be included in my children's lives, and with a wonderful family and support system.
