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.

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...
