Veteran's Day

 Today as many are. I am thankful for our Veteran's, past present and future. I can not even begin to imagine what they go through day to day. Away from home, away from family and friends, hearing guns and seeing horrible things... I don't want to be there, and I know for a fact I could not make the sacrifices needed to do it. So I am thankful, so very thankful for those that have, and do, and will. Thank you!

 So of course, I had to do a little something special for my very own vet. My hubby. I love him. I am thankful for him. So very thankful. Even though he drives me ABSOLUTELY nuts a lot of the time, and even though 50% of the time I wonder if I have a husband, or a 5th child... I Love him and I could not do what I do without him in my life.



 I love that on Sundays, he reads me the funny part of the comics, and the cool police reports.
I love that he clips coupons and talks about how "WERE" Going to save money at the grocery store.
 I love that he tells me I am sexy, when I feel far from it, and that when I tell him to shut up, he doesn't :)

 I am thankful that he does laundry and feeds the animals, and cleans up cat barf.
 I am thankful that he comes home after work and spends time with us.
 I am thankful that he just lets my being a bitch roll off his back.
 I am thankful for him taking the time to help at the kids school
 I am thankful that he is such a hard worker.

  Mostly I am just thankful that he is in my life. He has given me two of the most beautiful children and taken on 2 beautiful children that were not his, even when he did not have to. I am thankful that he loves me, and that he is a loyal husband and father.

 So today to show my thanks. I bought him a case of beer. We have not had the money to get beer in a while.. so this was a treat. We also went out to eat for dinner. Got a compliment on how well behaved our kids were even.

 Speaking of kids, Destiny got a GOOD grade on her math quiz today! She even texted me from lunch at school to tell me. She seemed PROUD of that grade. I am thankful, so very thankful, for that as well.

 Heck I am just thankful for today. Today was a good day.

Rapture

 I never knew, until I think Wednesday this week, that Saturday was the "end of the world" or the rapture or whatever people are saying its supposed to be. I think its funny that someone has said the world was going to end, and now the day before people are just taking notice. I mean last week, no one mentioned a thing. This week the whole place is going crazy. Either with people freaking out, or people making fun of the whole idea. Oh well, no point freaking out about it if you ask me. If its happening its happening. I highly doubt I am one of the ones who would be chosen to be pulled up at this point. I believe in God, and I do think I will go to heaven but I do not think I live my life closely enough to what God would want, to be taken up before the 7 year wrath and all that. I guess that is a horrible thing to admit, but I really think that very few people would be taken at this point.  So the end of the world upon us, I made some good money at work tonight. I was also ...

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 ...
