and another one goes, another one goes

 Another one bites the dust.


 I swear I have been "training" someone for MONTHS now. First it was the new boss. Yes he's the boss, but he still had to be broken in, and trained by us to some extent... Then it was his friend, a server, then another server then a 2nd... After the second was trained the first quit. Then we got a new second and now she's gone. What amazes me more than anything else is that with the job market the way it is, 2 of the girls just left with no other plan in mind. What ASTOUNDS ME is that all 3 were no call no shows. I mean, if you no longer want the job, can't work, don't like it... At least have the decency to call and let someone know. That way your not expected to show up at least. That being said I must admit I was a no call no show before. ONCE. Oh and I was SIXTEEN!

 My cousin added me on facebook today. So I now know that my adopted dad is alive and well. Good to know I suppose. I wonder if he was thinking of me, the day I had those odd feelings about him? Its odd how just out of the blue I thought about him. His birthday is coming up. He'll be 61. Maybe I should send him a card. Wonder if he even remembers who I am.

 I pulled my potatoes from my garden today. A bit too soon I do think. I did not get as many as I did last year... Of course last year I covered them with dirt also, this year, I did not have any extra dirt!

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...

The pitter patter of little (annoying) feet!

 I remember when my kids were little and innocent and said super cute things. It still happens sometimes, but not nearly as often. They no longer pitter patter, they clomp. Things change, kids grow.  Luckily I still have my little neighbor girl Adriana. She comes over to play with the big kids quite often and is almost always a hoot. From taking her to the "lime berry" to just silly things she says. Tonight was one of those nights.  I have not slept much and wanted a nice relaxing bath... As I am headed in there, Adriana asks me what I am doing... I tell her I am about to take a bath. "can I take one with you?" Uh.... I have  a vision of myself as Micheal Jackson...No baby, you cannot take a bath with me.... So I am in the tub, and after a while Tim came in to bring me towels... So he was in there visiting with me, and Adriana knocked and asked if she could come in... Tim told her no. "Why? Because Clorie is NAKED??? What are YOU doing in there TIM!?" ...

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...
