I used to be the one she ran to....

Now I am asked to leave the room. Today is a hard and emotional day for me. Not something I can really give detailed info about....but my baby is growing up. That's rough.

I remember when she would fall....she'd get up and run right to me for comfort. When she was sick, hungry, cold, sad, I was always there....I'm still here....but I am no longer who she runs too.

Now she runs to friends...even other mom's usually before she comes to me. She still comes to me when it's important though I guess... when it really matters. It's hard to let go...that bond coming apart....it was easy for her....but all that glue residue is stuck to me....a sad reminder that my baby is growing up.

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 ...

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 ...

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.
