The oddly normal life of Clorie

 First my teenage child, her boyfriend and the new job caused drama over the weekend. They were fighting, she was going to quit after one day, I had to text her off the cliff she was on for whatever reason... She's just fine now and said she was happy she chose to keep said job... Pretty sure she was never really planning on quitting anyway... All that squared away.  Then the mid teenage child and the laundry situation. It manipulated itself into the next day as well when a hoodie was lost and I mentioned it might be with other clothes since other clothes were in there ya know, since she did the laundry ON MY laundry day... which started her off again, yelling after her sister was in bed. Angry that I had brought it up again. I told her she was grounded this weekend to which she exclaimed "So I never go anywhere weekends anyway" well guess who's being super nice to me, and being an angelic child because a friend has a birthday sleepover this weekend? mmmm hmmm.  B...

 Apparently "I have ONE day I ask you to NOT do laundry and that is Sunday" Translates into "DO YOUR LAUNDRY ON SUNDAY JUST TO MAKE ME CRAZY" and then when I get upset over it... Me saying "One day a week I have for MY laundry, dont pick THAT day pick one of the SIX other days of the week" Translates into "I hate you why don't you go kill yourself for doing laundry on Sunday"  I guess that because by the time I was a full blown teenager, I was also a MOM I didn't have time to worry about myself so much as my children do. I must say the bipolar on again off again happy sad woe is me crap really gets on my nerves.  Anyway such is life. I spent 200 dollars on groceries and I am sure in 2 days there will be "nothing to eat". I got the house (mostly) cleaned up and ready for another week. Destiny got her schedule at work and it looks totally doable! Life is going good, I can't really complain (too much) I can always find some...

 I am horrible. I will get on here and gripe or complain until I am blue in the face but when my kids are AWESOME then I never speak a word of it.  So let me just say my kids are AWESOME. I had Hannah's parent teacher conference, and was not only told how smart and helpful she is in class (which I already knew) but that she catches on SO quickly to the new lessons that the teacher is going to start teaching her somethings and letting HER teach it to the class, and help them to better understand it! She is simply amazing. Her benchmark scores were all in the advanced areas, well above meeting standards. That little girl is smart.  Promise is doing so well with Volleyball she's always going to practice and working hard. She doesn't complain at all and she is just amazing too. She has all A's and B's so far this year as well which surprised me with all the extra things she's doing I am impressed that she can handle it and keep up with her grades. She's also...

whoop whoop. Lord knows I only have like ONE friend in Real life unless you count my mother, which I don't. LOL. I mean I love my mom and she's my sounding board for a lot of things, but at the same time I cannot talk to her about EVERYTHING!  So this past weekend, boo its over, was a good one. I worked Friday, went shopping with my mom Saturday morning, took some photos Saturday afternoon, Saturday evening I made a new friend. Sunday I worked made tamales and a mess of the kitchen which I did not clean up last night.  All in all a very nice weekend. I am OFF all next weekend, the big boss, told my boss he was working me to death apparently. See my boss certainly has more hours than me, but if you count the time we are both actually on our FEET and WORKING I bet it is pretty equal in hours and I am glad maybe that it sounds like someone noticed that?  So anyway next weekend I hope to relax, and read a book and clean the kitchen and the cabinets and maybe my bedroo...

 Normally the only things I blog about are things I have to bitch about. Only because I know that no one really wants to hear it, and if your reading my blog, and you don't want to hear it, well you can stop reading! This way I am not offending anyone too much.  So here is my rant of the day.  Your an ADULT. You have a job. The job has a schedule posted. READ IT. After you have read it, COME TO WORK on time. NO ONE from work should have to call you to wake you up so you can get there on time. Its BULLSHIT. There are things called ALARM clocks and there are ALARMS on cell phones. Not to mention your scheduled at ELEVEN in the afternoon, and have two young children so you should already BE awake by then takings care of, and spending time with said children. Ok Rant OVER!  So the little neighbor girl Adrina is over, She is 3. She's the most freaking adorable child ever created. She asked for some grapes and then didnt eat them, fed them to the guinea pig... " can...

 Do you ever have a dream, and although its something in your right mind you KNOW would never happen... You wake up and wonder a while, if it really did? I had one of those dreams the other night. Strange how some dreams out of your reach to remember, and some stay in your mind long after your awake.  In my dream, I was at work, it was Friday night, and Tim was off (all this is in real life as well last Friday) So Promise gets home from her volley ball practice and she's complaining of a knee injury. Coach said she should probably see a doctor. So Tim calls me at work, and I tell him I am working there for I cannot do much about it. He offers to take her in instead, and I agree if its bothering her badly that would be best.  I come home after work, and ask Tim what was the deal with Promise's knee. " oh they amputated." He tells me. They WHAHHHHH???? They don't just AMPUTATE when one complains ONE DAY about a sore knee!!! What the hell are you talking about?...
