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.

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 ...

So Whats up with my oddly normal life?

 Huh huh? Cus it seems that I am never ever updating my blog these days. I am such a sloth!  Things happen and I think how I should blog about them and then I figure they are not really so interesting if you were not here. Then I remember I blog for me, not really for someone else. I want to be able to remember things, to come back and go oh yeah... Those were the days. Or whatever. I can't do that if I don't blog it.  I am going to try to be more regular with the blogs again, even if its what I made for dinner, and  how my husband kept me up snoring. If it doesn't interest you, you don't have to read it right!? :)  So whats been going on? the kids are growing. I got contacts, I am not sure how I feel about them just yet. Sometimes they are great, and sometimes I feel like I have an eye full of hair. Sometimes I can see great with them in, and other times everything is blurrier than when I had  them out. Meanwhile I wear my scratched up glasses while ...

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.
