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 L

Sleep IN Sundays!!!

My kids know this rule. For the most part. Sundays Mama sleeps in. Get yourself cereal, be quiet and get along... Then I go and do something foolish, like allow 3 of 4 kids to have a friend over, which makes SEVEN kids in one house. One of which, apparently did NOT know the sleep in Sunday rule, even in the SLIGHTEST :o/ Of course when one kid wakes up, or at least this kid wakes up. ALL the kids are up. This did, help my ease of getting them all in bed this evening, but even so! ACK! The weekend went well. We spent time together at the park. All but Destiny of course, who has her own life now. I took some pictures I really liked. I am too lazy to post them here. If you want to see them you can go here. www.flickr.com/clorissasue Anyway that is all I have for now. I started a new blog, you can see it here . It will be for cooking, and recipes and such. This one will be kept for kids and life and bitching :) Just what I needed. Something more to do :)

Call CPS this must stop now!!!

 My daughter, my oldest, the one I am a taxi for has had a ride to AND FROM several places where she was supposed to catch a ride home from this week. The library, she said she had a ride home, then the ride "left without her". The mall, I told her she'd be picked up by Tim when he got off work, and they were COLD and her friend had FLIP FLOPS on and no one came to the mall so can I get them now... She stayed the night at a friends and instead of waiting for friends mom to bring her home, she HAD to be picked up by 1 so she could go to a friends...  That friends? She was supposed to walk HOME from and she called for a ride.  So today it was lovely out. 65 or so out, sunny. School was out and Tim had to get the other kids first, as he stayed for a play Hannah was in... Well he did not pick up Destiny. I told her she could walk. For 30 min. I am NOT KIDDING 30 MIN. She sent him and I text after text asking to pick her up.  PLEASE I will clean, I cleaned my room, its &qu
