You bet your butt!

 Oh so once again my bloginess has been lacking. I have had times, when I think how that was so funny and I need to blog it, and then the evening comes, the kids are in bed, and all I want to do is crash myself. What can I say, I am just not a good steady blogger. I am trying.

 So this week, its been a good week. We went to a park for a picnic on the windiest day in history. Played soccer and football and had a pretty good time, all of us, together, getting along. Amazing, I know right? Tim got a call from his old boss, asking him to come back to work there. Its more hours and a little bit more money, its also night shifts....

 So I suppose I will be back to feeling like a single mom during his work days. This time though, the kids are older and I think it should be easier. Its not like if I need to run to the store, I have to lug all four with me every single time. It also makes this summer SO much easier on us! Yes Destiny and Promise are both old enough to baby sit, but lets face it. Its summer, they want to have lives, and its their siblings so they are not always nice. My house is also destroyed daily... So Tim working evening shift, not going in, until I get home... Is really a blessing I do believe.

 We got a few things for the garden, a new fence to go around the little plot in the back yard. Tim wanted to buy the 5 foot fence,  I am more than certain that the 3 foot one, which was cheaper, will keep out our stubby basset hounds. So certain in fact, that I placed a bet with Tim. Now and then when he is certain he is right, and I am certain he is wrong, I will make a bet with him, a favor that he likes to have done, that I do not so much enjoy. I only bet it when I am sure, but twice I have bet, and been wrong... This though, I am sure of. They will not jump the fence. I can just see Tim in the back yard, T-bone steak, LURING the dogs over. LOL.

 I went grocery shopping this week, without a list. A sin nearly in my book. I mostly got meats, I figured if we have meats to last the month, I can afford anything else without issues mostly. So I bought a bunch of meat and other things at Sams Club. I love that place!

 Destiny is going to PROM next weekend. I can't believe it. She was invited by a Jr. She does not really like him, but he asked her and she wanted to go so she said yes.... I am actually happy inside that she does not feel head over heels for the boy... I mean its PROM and all.

 Anyhow we got her dress, at a boutique store, but its a new dress, store tags still on it... We got it for 15.00! It was half price! Pretty awesome. All in all for a dress, shoes, nails, bra and hair clip I am out maybe 50 dollars, and she can wear this all twice, because she has a formal dinner for choir later this month. The dress is adorable, and she looks fantastic in it (Of course)

 So that has been life. Same ol' same ol really. Got too many kids over for the night. Can't keep the house clean, too much to do, too little time. All my seeds I had started, I left outside when it got REALLY cold... and they died. So now I need to start new ones. I am excited to get a garden going again... MMMM Fresh tomatoes!

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 L

Sleep IN Sundays!!!

My kids know this rule. For the most part. Sundays Mama sleeps in. Get yourself cereal, be quiet and get along... Then I go and do something foolish, like allow 3 of 4 kids to have a friend over, which makes SEVEN kids in one house. One of which, apparently did NOT know the sleep in Sunday rule, even in the SLIGHTEST :o/ Of course when one kid wakes up, or at least this kid wakes up. ALL the kids are up. This did, help my ease of getting them all in bed this evening, but even so! ACK! The weekend went well. We spent time together at the park. All but Destiny of course, who has her own life now. I took some pictures I really liked. I am too lazy to post them here. If you want to see them you can go here. www.flickr.com/clorissasue Anyway that is all I have for now. I started a new blog, you can see it here . It will be for cooking, and recipes and such. This one will be kept for kids and life and bitching :) Just what I needed. Something more to do :)

Call CPS this must stop now!!!

 My daughter, my oldest, the one I am a taxi for has had a ride to AND FROM several places where she was supposed to catch a ride home from this week. The library, she said she had a ride home, then the ride "left without her". The mall, I told her she'd be picked up by Tim when he got off work, and they were COLD and her friend had FLIP FLOPS on and no one came to the mall so can I get them now... She stayed the night at a friends and instead of waiting for friends mom to bring her home, she HAD to be picked up by 1 so she could go to a friends...  That friends? She was supposed to walk HOME from and she called for a ride.  So today it was lovely out. 65 or so out, sunny. School was out and Tim had to get the other kids first, as he stayed for a play Hannah was in... Well he did not pick up Destiny. I told her she could walk. For 30 min. I am NOT KIDDING 30 MIN. She sent him and I text after text asking to pick her up.  PLEASE I will clean, I cleaned my room, its &qu
