How To Tell When Your Sick Kids Are On the Mend

 Not for certain, but when you walk through the door after work and the first words spoken to you from one child are:  "Promise is a big fat JERK today!" You can be pretty sure, that the kids, are feeling better.

 Oh yes, antibiotics, how quickly you work. Had I have known I might have waited just a while before giving them to the kids! So life, as we know it, has returned to its normal, busy, argumentative self. Fighting, yelling, even a few Hannah screams have been seen and heard today. Joy.

 I am exhausted today. EXHAUSTED. When I set my alarm last night it told me I had 5 hours and 27 min until it would go off. Then I did not get right to sleep, and then, I was woken up several times through out the night. To pee, to tell husband he forgot to turn off the TV,  to nicely ask my snoring husband to roll over, to suffocate my snoring husband, and then to chase a cat who wanted to sharpen claws on the corner of my bed, right near my head away... I am not sure why but I do not think there has been ONE night this month, I have fallen asleep and NOT woken up from something before my alarm goes off. I hate it! I want a straight 8 hours (or even 12) of sleep!!!

 Work went better than I expected, as far as co workers and drama went. On slamming busy and making tons of money... Well that did not go so well. Slow day for the back section. Oh well! Tomorrow I do not have to open, for the first time in a while... That might be nice.

 I forgot this afternoon that my car does not reverse, that is important to remember....Unless I have the kids along to push me backwards!

 Oh and my funny for the day. Don asked if I could pick up a roast for him, from the grocery by my work. WHY Sure I can... Why not right?! I go to pick up said roast along with a few things I thought I might need for meals this week. I got a basket, not a cart. Note to self, when picking up roast for Don, get a cart, forklift, bring SOMETHING to carry that thing in!!! This roast is TWENTY EIGHT pounds and some odd ounces!!! Is that a roast? Or a whole cow??!! Anyway I guess he is going to share some of it when its cooked up and sliced. Yummy yum! Worth my time picking it up and carrying it I bet!







 Proof of the large size of said roast. That is my hand, and it is on my backseat!!! It would not even fit in a bag. Don does not cook small. Ever. LOL.

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...
