OCTOBER FIRST!

 Wow. Just starting October and I have already started filling in the calender with apts and things. Sheesh!

 Today was Promise's ortho consultation, again. She has lost 2 baby teeth and her big teeth are being HARMED By the way they set in her mouth so braces are needed sooner, not later. Go figure of the 26 points needed for Arkids to pay, she has 22. Apparently OVERBITES get the most points and that, is the only thing Promise does not have.

 Yes its going to be a lot of money and I was REALLY hoping that we could pay of Destiny's before having to start paying on Promises, but I cannot, simply cannot let her teeth be ruined, and I can see self esteem problems in her already, she sometimes tries to hide her smile, and I hate that. I cannot wait, simply cannot WAIT to see her smile all straightened out! I am excited! OH and I also get to torture her with TURNS OF THE EXPANDER HAHAHAHAH. :)

 So the day before Halloween, "hallows' eve" she will have them put on! WOOT! Another monthly payment added to my never yet started budget. At least he's no interest and he DOES allow payments. Oh and he's hot. Have I mentioned that? :)

 So not only that, but she will have 3 times to go this month to get the process started. Fun fun. Then I have parent Teacher Con. this week as well, tomorrow actually. AND the kids are out of school Tomorrow, AND all next week. Woot?! Yeah. Uh woot. hmmph.

 I have also made an apt. with myself. EVERY DAY I will sit down and I will make a plan for the next, what to eat, and keep it with in my "points". I am going to try weight watchers again, are you kidding, no meetings, I don't have the money. I know how the points work and I am trying it out. It seems easier than calorie counting right now. I get 23 points a day, that is how fat I am. UGH. I really just feel out of shape, completely and it sucks. So every day, stay within my point range, and also to work out. WORK OUT CLORIE. I feel so much better when I do, yet some how I always make up excuses NOT to.

 I have done this before, and I can do this again. I am almost ASHAMED To see people I have not seen in a while, I know I said that before though too. I think I have gotten to a point now I am ready to do something about it, at least, God I hope so.

 So here's to a new month, a new me, and a new attitude and soon for Promise, a new smile :) YAY OCTOBER!

some days

 The kids are just cute. I know I normally talk about how bratty they are. but today, well today they were just cute. All of them, even Destiny. Believe it or not.  Hannah came down the little car line to get into the van and she was smiling and so happy, and so dang cute. Promise had a friend over part of the day Bailey played mario and Destiny told me my shirt looked like a hobo shirt (it was Tims)  Today was just a good day. not sure what made it that way. the kids mostly got a long, there were a few SHUTUPS tossed out but for the most part it was pretty peaceful. I wish more days, were like today.  I went to Lowe's today to get a shelf thing to put in our laundry room. Its so exciting! TO think a shelf would be nice here, and then think YEAH, I'll put one in. See we can do that, cus we OWN our house! :) Its awesome!  I got a few more seeds today. Sweet baby peppers, zucchini and squash too. Yum. I really hope something grows this year. I am SO sore f...

The pitter patter of little (annoying) feet!

 I remember when my kids were little and innocent and said super cute things. It still happens sometimes, but not nearly as often. They no longer pitter patter, they clomp. Things change, kids grow.  Luckily I still have my little neighbor girl Adriana. She comes over to play with the big kids quite often and is almost always a hoot. From taking her to the "lime berry" to just silly things she says. Tonight was one of those nights.  I have not slept much and wanted a nice relaxing bath... As I am headed in there, Adriana asks me what I am doing... I tell her I am about to take a bath. "can I take one with you?" Uh.... I have  a vision of myself as Micheal Jackson...No baby, you cannot take a bath with me.... So I am in the tub, and after a while Tim came in to bring me towels... So he was in there visiting with me, and Adriana knocked and asked if she could come in... Tim told her no. "Why? Because Clorie is NAKED??? What are YOU doing in there TIM!?" ...

Love the one your with.

 My mom and I were talking and lately her relationship is what I guess we could call complicated. During our conversation she stopped and asked me "Are you happy with Tim?" without hesitation I answered "yes".She told me that she knew he loved me and she was so glad I could be happy.  Later I was thinking about it. I have wondered is he "it" is he the one. How can I be sure, how is anyone ever sure? We have been together for almost 9 years now. Granted we've had our issues, but every night he comes home to me, and every morning he's next to me in bed. He loves me, he provides for me, and I love him and provide for him. Together we are raising four wonderful children.  Do I still get butterflies when he walks though the door? Well, honestly, no. Do I still miss him the moment he walks away... Again no, sometimes I am more than happy to see him leave for the evening and go to work... Does that mean I love him any less than I did when our love was...
