Knock Knock

 A little boy who was a customer of mine the other day, thought I was funny. He was looking at mom and grandma through his binoculars and they would make a funny face, so when he looked at me, I guess he didn't expect me to make a face, but I did. Because I was so funny he wanted to tell me his newest joke:

 "Knock Knock" Who's there? "Impatient cow"  Impatient cow wh--- "MOOOOOOO"

 As much as I am sure a book about nothing but the odd, and funny things my kids say would be interesting, I also think a blog about things said, and done at work would be a best seller too. Today for example. Bossman was cooking pasta, I noticed it was about to be overcooked and since he was interviewing someone, I drained his pasta... Later to gain the recognition needed I let him know. "Thanks for draining my noodle, Clorie" Over heard from a customer by Bossman this very same day "I've never been called a cracker!" If only the customers heard half of the things that have been said... LOL. Thankfully they don't.

 Life has been crazy. Kids have been well behaved despite my lack of good parenting... Fighting and all that still. The house is always messy none of them cleans up after themselves wroth a damn. I also went from having a part time job,... to working 30 hours to make my health insurance stay active, to now working nearly 40 hours a week this month. I got a raise, so more hours just makes my check that much happier... but still. I feel stretched a bit thinner than I am used to and its hard.

 My mom has left Don and I am caught somewhere in the middle somehow. I love Don, he's been like a father to me for quite a while, hell he's more of a father than my "dad" is or has ever been... So of course I still want him to be a part of mine, and my childrens lives...but he's still really sad about my mom leaving and has things to say that are not so nice about her, and well quite frankly she's my mom... and I love her no matter what and don't want to hear it.

 So I am stuck in the middle, stretched further than I think I want to be, I need a nice long day off, without kids. Anyone want to come and babysit for me? No? Didn't think so. Ha! I'll get through it, but I hope a girls night is in the works for some time soon.

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
