Fooled Ya!

Yesterday, a Sunday, upon leaving the house I noticed the flag was up on the mailbox. "Why is the flag up on the mailbox?" I wonder aloud. "Because." replies Bailey, "I wanted to TRICK the mailman!" Giggles from the boo. What a silly boy. Its things like that they do that makes me so glad I got the opportunity to be a mom.

Its times like today, when the only thing they can do is call mean names and fight and smack and hate each other, that I wonder what the hell I was thinking!!! I guess like anything there are good days, and there are bad. As long as the good are better than the bad... well your good. Right?

Middle school orientation was today for Destiny. Big school. Crazy full of kids, most taller than me. It kinda made me miss school though. I loved school, yeah, I was a freak like that. Going from class to class, my locker, teachers, school lunch even. I loved it. I guess because I was home schooled for the most part, the small amount of time I did go to a "real" school, I Just soaked it all in and enjoyed.

Maybe I could register? Like I said, I was shorter than half the kids there (okay more than half lol) No one would know. Well the gray hair might tip em off... That and Destiny calling me mom. :o)

Today my dinner was not appreciated. I told the kids I am opening up cans of crap from now on. No more of my lovely recipes, no more working hard. Plop a can of whatever into a bowl and heat it up. I feel unappreciated. Whats new?

Its not always 50/50

 Sometimes one person has to hold up more weight than the other does. Lately I feel as though I am that person holding the extra weight. Lately I have been wishing I was not that person. I feel like I am being spread a bit too thin... I also feel like no matter how many times I try to explain myself, it does not matter.  So I will just keep waiting, and hopefully eventually someone will come and take a few books off of my stack. Take a load off. Help me out. Chip in. You get it? I am sure you do. Now if only other people did as well.  God doesnt give you more than you can handle. I wonder sometimes if He thinks the load he's giving me is being more evenly distributed than it is... Maybe he can review my case :)

8 years at the same job!

 I will say this about my work. No matter what is said, word gets around. Words also get twisted and changed, and rumors fly like well I don't know kites? I think co-workers are like a second family, not like to the point where you want to invite them over for Thanksgiving dinner... More like your around them enough that you are more than likely to have seen a bad side of them, and learned some annoyances. Chances are they were grumpy or depressed or pissed at some point and you have seen them at their worst. I think that makes it easier to get under each others skin and become annoyed. You get annoyed, you get over it, you move on. Your still co workers and you still get through. Like family, there are spats, you get over it move on and after it all your still family.  So do I always love my co workers or getting up early, or when someone is rude to me, or when I don't make any money... OF COURSE NOT. I have good days and I have bad days. Today it was raining, I would have ...

Done Growing

 Well soon enough it will be the start of a new school year. Sooner for my younger two, than for my older two. So today we went to get a few things that will be needed. Some shoes, socks and backpacks. Mommy needed a new pair of shoes too, I wear mine out pretty quickly being on my feet as a waitress.  So my son is about the pickiest shoe person out there. Nothing fits. We have to try on like every.single.shoe. in his size before he can choose. Its irritating and stressful. Hannah was pretty easy although she did not take the cheaper "on sale" pair I liked best. Either way she was quick and painless.  So then mom's turn. I put on a pair of 6.5 I wear those or 7's depending on the shoe. I wanted to try those new shoes with the curved bottom. Anyway... I get the 6.5 on and Hannah feels for my toes. "Oh you better get a size bigger" She says. "Those wont last the whole school year!" I told her I did not have to worry about outgrowing my shoes. My ...
