So Whats up with my oddly normal life?

 Huh huh? Cus it seems that I am never ever updating my blog these days. I am such a sloth!

 Things happen and I think how I should blog about them and then I figure they are not really so interesting if you were not here. Then I remember I blog for me, not really for someone else. I want to be able to remember things, to come back and go oh yeah... Those were the days. Or whatever. I can't do that if I don't blog it.

 I am going to try to be more regular with the blogs again, even if its what I made for dinner, and  how my husband kept me up snoring. If it doesn't interest you, you don't have to read it right!? :)

 So whats been going on? the kids are growing. I got contacts, I am not sure how I feel about them just yet. Sometimes they are great, and sometimes I feel like I have an eye full of hair. Sometimes I can see great with them in, and other times everything is blurrier than when I had  them out. Meanwhile I wear my scratched up glasses while I wait for the pair I just ordered online (and hope I like) to come in.

 The kids just went to the last day of school for a week. Spring break. Woot? Yeah woot for them. Boo for me. I have a giant bruise on my arm from where my son pulled a chair out from behind me as I went to sit down...  He also recently tied a poney holder around the spray nozzle on the sink so when I turned the sink on, water sprayed me. I reminded him I am the cooker of his meals.

 Tim recently took on a second part time job, and I have been working more hours at my job. So far things are not really less tight though. I am currently working on paying off our debt to his parents, and a credit card bill... Then I will be saving for a vacation or something hopefully. Hopefully. We need one!

 Life as I know it is pretty much the way it always is. My kids love me one moment, and hate me the next. I am an awesome mom, and then I am the meanest person on the planet. Its the ups and downs of parenthood. I am getting used to it. I am also growing grey hairs, as my son thinks jumping off the roof onto the trampoline is a good idea, and not wearing green on St. pattys day so "all the cute girls will pinch him" is also causing a few stray greys. My daughter dumped her 50th boyfriend, I am okay with that, I'd rather her not have one.

 I get more and more afraid the closer she gets to the age 15. Happening in just over 2 months. I can remember being fifteen, and I know the things I did, and I had always been a good girl. Of course looking back now I think part of my issues came with having a rough home life, and wanting out somehow. I would never go back and change the choices I have made, because I love where my life is now... But I do wish more, so much more for my own daughter, who is nearly fifteen.

 What can I do besides sit back, be there, try to keep my eyes open and the blinders off, and pray. Pray a lot! So there is my boring blog of the day. I hope to have something interesting happen tomorrow!

  1. I've been waiting weeks for this blog woman. They may be for you, but they are for me to, in my opinion. I've posted on your wall a few times calling you a slacker. You best keep up on it. :p

  2. I enjoy reading your blogs!! (when I remember to check) They make me realize the trouble I am in as my kids get older lol. You did have a rougher life as a kid but yes most of the time you were a good girl! I miss those days of being young and not realizing how much growing up we still had to do. Even as I get older I can look back 5 years and see how much I have grown.

Ahh a fresh new week.

It is Monday. Daylight savings gave me this extra hour of sleep and a bright sunny morning to wake up to. The weekend is behind me now along with that UNGODLY busy week. My best friend is home from her camping trip, I have learned how to use, and LOVE my new phone... All feels right with the world!  Over the weekend Destiny was gone. It was kind of quiet around here, but Promise made sure to make up for the crankiness and teenager (esq) that might be lacking in the household. Thank you Promise. Your just too kind.  Rooster boy came and stayed the night. Not sure why but my son always has these strange thoughts he thinks are good ideas when rooster boy stays... Not saying its rooster boy, my son even admitted it was his own idea, I just think when boys get together, they lose all ability to ration out what is a good and what is a bad idea.  So what was the bright idea this weekend? To "splatter paint" A bowling pin . I guess I should be happy, that at least ...

Time Flies

A year ago today my best friend gave birth to her second little boy. TWO years ago tomorrow my first granddaughter was born. Both seem like yesterday, but also so long ago. Two years in a row almost on the same day I got to watch the miracle of life happen... I have done it myself four times, but it never ceases to amaze me. To watch it is just amazing that our body does that. GROWS someone in side of us and then gets that someone OUT. Just amazing. Life is stressing me out right now however, I am trying to take this weekend to just tune out anything and everything that is getting to me, just have fun, go to birthday parties, eat cake and not worrry. Not worry about bills or calories or my steps (I even took my fit bit off) Just be me, just enjoy what there is in life to enjoy. My amazing friends, and my crazy family and the hot summer weather.
