"I quit!"

 I did. I quit today. Quit being a mom. Okay so it was only for 3 min. I think I might have made somewhat of a point though. I am TIRED of it. Constant arguing, the kids cannot, simply CAN NOT say anything nice to each other ever. Its just craziness. I've said it before, but I will say it again, I did not have siblings so this is new to me, this hatred you can have for someone you should love. Its nuts.

 This afternoon stressed me out with a call from Destiny from school. She did not feel good, but I made her stay in school. The nurse said she did not have fever so she could stay, so I made her stay. Mean mom.

 I had to stop by the "BOYSCOUT" store to get my boy his little outfit for his first pack meeting tonight! $80 dollars later, I have a shirt, hat, belt, hankerchief, and book to show for it. Heh. He better enjoy being a scout!























 I stopped by wal-mart after that, to get a stove top grill/griddle and also the stuff to make a roast, so that I can copy Stephanie my very good friend :) I have had her roast before, made by her and it was THE BOMB.I am hoping that I can come somewhat close, tomorrow when I try out her recipe for myself. Be sure to check out my food blog tomorrow for that. I am hungry just thinking of it!

 Got the kids from school, I was going to borrow my moms lawn mower, but realized it would not fit into the van, with the 90 bags of clothes that are back there, for donation. Heh. Then it started to storm big time anyway so it would not have done me any good to have!

 Once we got home, that is where it all began. The fighting. Computer time, who called it first Destiny and Bailey fought over that one, Bailey one, and then spent all of 4 min. on the darn thing. The other kids were upset to find that I have limited it to ONE time of 30 min. each. Again #2 for mean mom. Its "not fair" and its "retarded" both words I have banned, but that are still used, on a daily basis.

 Hannah had one or two fits over something. Promise got totally pissed off over picking up notebook paper, told Tim and I that we were "stupid" as she ran back to her room. Oh boy. She stayed there quite a while, but did come out with a changed attitude which was nice.

 Bailey and Tim left to go to the boyscout meeting. So it was just the girls and I. The little ones and I played Jenga until yet another fight broke out. I had told them when we started, fighting was when I was done. So the first time, I kept my word. I was done.

 Started cooking bacon on my nifty new girll. Burnt some. HA! I love it though I was able to make a whole pound of bacon in no time flat! It was super easy to clean as well! So upon time to assemble the BLT's yet another fight broke out. Over Destiny pouring soda. Promise did not want Destiny to pour her soda.  Whine whine, fuss fuss, argue, your dumb, your an idiot.... "I'm DONE". Make your own sandwiches! I quit.

 It was not until I heard the little ones crying that they could not make their own that I gave in, went out there and told everyone to sit down and SHUT UP and I would make them. I have never had such a quiet dinner. I think maybe, just maybe they realized I meant it?

 Nope. They were back to the same ol' same later on. This made for a stressed out, happy to see bedtime come mama. I fed them the angel food cake I had made topped with blackberries and they brushed and they all went to bed. All but Bailey, who wanted to stay up, and read his boyscout book. Silly boy.

 Hopefully, tomorrow is another, newer, better day!

Ahh a fresh new week.

It is Monday. Daylight savings gave me this extra hour of sleep and a bright sunny morning to wake up to. The weekend is behind me now along with that UNGODLY busy week. My best friend is home from her camping trip, I have learned how to use, and LOVE my new phone... All feels right with the world!  Over the weekend Destiny was gone. It was kind of quiet around here, but Promise made sure to make up for the crankiness and teenager (esq) that might be lacking in the household. Thank you Promise. Your just too kind.  Rooster boy came and stayed the night. Not sure why but my son always has these strange thoughts he thinks are good ideas when rooster boy stays... Not saying its rooster boy, my son even admitted it was his own idea, I just think when boys get together, they lose all ability to ration out what is a good and what is a bad idea.  So what was the bright idea this weekend? To "splatter paint" A bowling pin . I guess I should be happy, that at least ...

Time Flies

A year ago today my best friend gave birth to her second little boy. TWO years ago tomorrow my first granddaughter was born. Both seem like yesterday, but also so long ago. Two years in a row almost on the same day I got to watch the miracle of life happen... I have done it myself four times, but it never ceases to amaze me. To watch it is just amazing that our body does that. GROWS someone in side of us and then gets that someone OUT. Just amazing. Life is stressing me out right now however, I am trying to take this weekend to just tune out anything and everything that is getting to me, just have fun, go to birthday parties, eat cake and not worrry. Not worry about bills or calories or my steps (I even took my fit bit off) Just be me, just enjoy what there is in life to enjoy. My amazing friends, and my crazy family and the hot summer weather.

Tea Party Time

 Today was the school mother daughter tea party. I took miss Hannah Bear. She had a good time. A few of her friends were there. They got to get their nails painted, some make up on... There was a stack of dresses to try on and then model on a "runway" oh and of course some tea and snacks! (my favorite part of course)  The kids school had a scare today. It was locked down and police were called after a man was seen just wondering around the playground at recess time. Again it makes me SO glad they go to a small school where teachers know parents and know when someone who does not belong, is there. No one was hurt, and the man just walked off when a teacher asked him his reasons for being there... Scary anyway.  This week has been slower than the last, for that I am thankful. I am still busy don't get me wrong, but I am able to keep my head above water with just a minimal tread. Not having to do the backstroke all week is nice!  It is nearly "my time" S...
