Kids-Cant stand em, but ya miss em.

 Its funny the way it works. They drive me criminally insane one moment, but the moment they are out of my reach or sight, I must admit... I miss them. I wonder what they are doing, if they are behaving themselves, if they think about me, and I can't wait to see them again. Until, I see them again, they fight and argue and drive me back into my insanity. I guess its that absence makes the heart grow fonder thing? Regardless. Promise was gone most of Spring Break. As much as I loved the peace and quiet around the house without her here. I worried. Was she having a good time, was she behaving, did she have a clean pair of underwear, brush her teeth, shower, cry, if she got hurt could the mom she was staying with make her feel better like I can???

 I did not blog over spring break. I was in my white room with padded walls most of the week I suppose. No time for blogging in there.

 Bailey lost a tooth, and explained how he did not believe, anymore, in the "tooth fairy" and then he looked at me as if I were going to fess up to it being me. Regardless he put that tooth under his pillow 2 nights and the tooth fairy never did come. Then he told me it seemed ODD that while I Had no cash, the tooth fairy had not come... Hmmmm. So I quickly got cash and that night shoved some money under his pillow, but the tooth could not be found without ample searching and I did not want to wake him up, and PROVE to him that I was indeed the tooth fairy herself.

 So the next day he is excited about his money and tells me she did not take his tooth. He tried giving it to me. What on earth would I do with it???? I would not take it. Last night, almost 4 nights after tooth fairy's visit he tells me that it is still under his pillow and the tooth fairy had not gotten it. I said I thought you did not believe in the tooth fairy anymore though? I dont he said I think its either God, or Jesus.

 Destiny walked into the bathroom where Bailey had recently done #2 and apparently not flushed. Another lovely thing you deal with when having children, How much toilet paper do you need to use??? How much BUTT DO YOU HAVE??? She asked Bailey.

 This week has been dragging on, its only Wednesday and it feels like I should have had 3 Fridays by now.

 The eyeglass place finally called to let me know my contacts where in... I went there, picked them up to find I only had 2 boxes... Not QUITE a 6 month supply since they last 3 weeks each and each box had only 6 packs.. Then, I realize when I get home BOTH boxes are contacts for my LEFT eye. I called. Oh yeah, the ones for my RIGHT eye are on back order, and should be in in 2-3 days where then I will get to drive ALL The way to the OTHER side of town AGAIN and pick that side up. Im sorry, we should have waited to call you and tell you they were in.... Uh ya THINK? I guess I could wear a patch? :OP RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Its not always 50/50

 Sometimes one person has to hold up more weight than the other does. Lately I feel as though I am that person holding the extra weight. Lately I have been wishing I was not that person. I feel like I am being spread a bit too thin... I also feel like no matter how many times I try to explain myself, it does not matter.  So I will just keep waiting, and hopefully eventually someone will come and take a few books off of my stack. Take a load off. Help me out. Chip in. You get it? I am sure you do. Now if only other people did as well.  God doesnt give you more than you can handle. I wonder sometimes if He thinks the load he's giving me is being more evenly distributed than it is... Maybe he can review my case :)

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 ...

Done Growing

 Well soon enough it will be the start of a new school year. Sooner for my younger two, than for my older two. So today we went to get a few things that will be needed. Some shoes, socks and backpacks. Mommy needed a new pair of shoes too, I wear mine out pretty quickly being on my feet as a waitress.  So my son is about the pickiest shoe person out there. Nothing fits. We have to try on like every.single.shoe. in his size before he can choose. Its irritating and stressful. Hannah was pretty easy although she did not take the cheaper "on sale" pair I liked best. Either way she was quick and painless.  So then mom's turn. I put on a pair of 6.5 I wear those or 7's depending on the shoe. I wanted to try those new shoes with the curved bottom. Anyway... I get the 6.5 on and Hannah feels for my toes. "Oh you better get a size bigger" She says. "Those wont last the whole school year!" I told her I did not have to worry about outgrowing my shoes. My ...
