Its almost over...

 The year that is. Crazy. Already almost over. I cannot believe it. Christmas came and went in the blink of an eye this year. The kids were happy with what they got and I think I got them mostly needs, and then a few big things we can all enjoy together. No one was upset with that, so its awesome.

 So what has been going on in my crazy normal life? Same ole same ole mostly. Another one bit the dust at work, almost 2. Almost. A little ass kissing brought it back down to just one down. I am happy with my job at the moment, as I normally am for the most part.

 Life is good at home. The two oldest kids used break to get out of the house as much as possible so far.... I had heard plans of them going to the other families for Christmas, and even Thanksgiving as they loomed closer no one ever mentioned anything so I guess it was a no go, obviously.Whatever. The girls have been hanging out with friends, and the oldest the boyfriend, who now moved less than a block away (yee haw).

 The husband is still grumpy all the time, the crease marks between his eyebrows prove that. I wonder sometimes if he's ever really happy inside. He says he is, but he certainly doesn't act as if he is. I just do my best to keep myself happy. After all if mama ain't happy....

 About being happy. I really am. Sometimes I think I shouldnt be. Like I am settling for less, and happy with it. Like when someone mentions one day I will get a "real job" I think, maybe I should strive for more... more than a server job... but then in the same breath, I think why? I make money to pay my bills and I like my job and I am happy there... So why should I strive for more, when what I already have... is everything that I need?

 I am not sure how that works, like you should always reach for the stars, but if your in space, well then hmmm. Just pondering.

 Lets see, I have one really good best friend and she never really bothers to talk to me anymore, when she does it is just a random text... Oddly enough that does not really bother me. I think I am different and I am changing and that is not really such a bad thing. I have my mom, and my aunt, and my husband and my children and I have me time at work and that is really all I feel that I need. Maybe I should reach higher but currently I feel like I am just as high as I need to be. Anyway I am afraid of heights! :)

 So with a New Year approching I of course have goals. Not to further my career, but to of course lose weight, just like everyone else in the world. The slim fast shakes are already lining the isles of walmart along with the sales on workout equipment. I will follow the trend and home to lose some weight.

 I would also like to be a better parent, of course. I am not the best, and I yell and I do not follow through like I should. So that would be a goal as well.

 Oh yes and my silly just for fun, never actually do goals: 365 picture taking (yes again) and... To keep up with this damn blog! HA! Happy New Year!

Ahh a fresh new week.

It is Monday. Daylight savings gave me this extra hour of sleep and a bright sunny morning to wake up to. The weekend is behind me now along with that UNGODLY busy week. My best friend is home from her camping trip, I have learned how to use, and LOVE my new phone... All feels right with the world!  Over the weekend Destiny was gone. It was kind of quiet around here, but Promise made sure to make up for the crankiness and teenager (esq) that might be lacking in the household. Thank you Promise. Your just too kind.  Rooster boy came and stayed the night. Not sure why but my son always has these strange thoughts he thinks are good ideas when rooster boy stays... Not saying its rooster boy, my son even admitted it was his own idea, I just think when boys get together, they lose all ability to ration out what is a good and what is a bad idea.  So what was the bright idea this weekend? To "splatter paint" A bowling pin . I guess I should be happy, that at least ...

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.

Tea Party Time

 Today was the school mother daughter tea party. I took miss Hannah Bear. She had a good time. A few of her friends were there. They got to get their nails painted, some make up on... There was a stack of dresses to try on and then model on a "runway" oh and of course some tea and snacks! (my favorite part of course)  The kids school had a scare today. It was locked down and police were called after a man was seen just wondering around the playground at recess time. Again it makes me SO glad they go to a small school where teachers know parents and know when someone who does not belong, is there. No one was hurt, and the man just walked off when a teacher asked him his reasons for being there... Scary anyway.  This week has been slower than the last, for that I am thankful. I am still busy don't get me wrong, but I am able to keep my head above water with just a minimal tread. Not having to do the backstroke all week is nice!  It is nearly "my time" S...
