Lazy Me

 

 My dogs were dirty. Smelly. Just plain rotten. I just recently got my bathtub to drain normally again, and well I was feeling lazy so I took my pups to the groomer to be bathed. They got nails trimmed, ears done, and a nice bath. They smell great! I wont do it often, but I think its worth it, in the winter, to get this done. I could not have gotten them so clean in the tub, not to mention my house would have smelled like wet dog for 3 days! So my pups came home all squeaky clean with bows on their collars. Cute!
 Life is still going. Big things going down. The oldest is facing a possibility of not passing the 8th grade and moving on to highschool with her friends. I have tried to get her to realize this is important and I think she just thought she could barely squeak by all her life. I hope if she does have to stay back, it teaches her, that it really is important. There is only so much I can do to help her when she brings nothing home and says she has nothing to study and no homework. I feel that she is old enough to really know what to do, and do it, with minimal help and pushing from me.

 Tim is thinking about getting back into the Army Reserves. He's brought it up a few times since we've been together and with Bailey being sick and the war going on I have always said no way... He keeps bringing it up though and I think honestly its something he really wants to do, I think it made him feel like he has meaning... and the money couldn't hurt right? So he goes for a physical sometime this month to see if he's even in the shape to go back in. I guess after that, we will make our choice. I love him.

 Work is work. The blond one is making me crazy. Whats new? I am sick of excuses being made by any and everyone and in fact it has made me not want to really work to hard on my own job. Why fill my stuff to have it emptied that night and not refilled? Why sweep when the next day I will have trash all over the floors? Whatever. When no one does their job, crap sucks.

 SO thats life right now. Same ol' same ol' really. Its up, its down, its sideways. I have my honey, my kids, my house, and my pets. I get to start my garden here soon, and I am excited about that, C'mon SPRING!!!! :)

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...
