The ones you do the most for...

 Always seem to not realize it. Is that how it always works? Or maybe I just don't notice when they notice. Thinking back, I mean my mom cooked meals, took me places, loved me no matter what... I don't remember thinking WOW my mom does SO MUCH FOR ME... Because, I guess as a kid, that does not cross your mind. So I should not feel so bad that I am unappreciated I suppose. One day they will look back and realize, and then be thankful. I just hope I am alive and well so they can call me and kiss my ass!

 Today has not been the best day. Last night my mom told me about her boyfriend, his drinking problem, and her plans to leave. I think its a great plan, and I hope that she does do it. Part of me really does not think she will though, she's been through this before and never done anything about it.

 Then I get a letter from the orthodontist. My account is behind because I was charged a late fee, for missing ONE appointment in two years. So that sucked, since of course things are already behind. Then the dryer smelled like burning rubber, turns out the barrel stopped working. Of course the kids were on my butt to take them all over the place, so I went to leave and take them, and the car would not start (dead battery again)

 This of course caused issues because they had told friends they would be here or there or whatever, and now could not go. Horrible mom I am I cannot push a car into the garage MYSELF to hook it up to the battery charger. Perhaps next time I should risk being run over to give it a go?

 When I look at life though I am happy. I have my own home, and a healthy family, friends who care about me, and a job. What more could I really want? A working dryer? Yeah sure...but life goes on without it. If you had everything handed to you, then you would not really ever appreciate it. I think that is why this happens. To show you what you have, and have forgotten about.

  1. They will see all that you do eventually, just like we did. They should be happy for what they have too, and if they really wanted to go so bad, should have helped you push the car, they are all able bodied. :) As for your mom, this seems to be a pattern with her. I hope she breaks it, like I did.

not everything i say requires a response.

 first off let me say, my shift key is not working so nothing is uppercase today. so sorry.   the new chick at work is driving me...crazy. short drive i know but even so. like seriously. crazy. she argues with everything, butts into any conversation started without her in it, and denies anything being done wrong. she's new, making a mistake is going to happen. if you do it, fess up, and get on. your not in trouble. shut up. quit denying it just say ok, and get on with life. it does not always require a response. just do it. or don't do it, whatever fits in the time. then i have customers like the lady today. she and her friends all got their pizzas. when i walked by i stopped to check on the table. i noticed that the lady was asking her friend to sniff her slice of pizza, of which she had taken one bite of. i asked if everything was okay 'it tasted funny when i took a bite' she says 'here taste it," she tries to get her friends to taste it, one sniffs and ...

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...

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...
