Proud Mama Moments

 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 been a lot less mouthy but I think its just that the couch wears her ass out before she gets home, which I am fine with, and thankful for!

 Bailey is still adjusting to the new school. I think he managed to find his way around and all that very quickly. Finding friends I guess is not going as well... Although he knows some kids and doesn't eat alone anymore... I think he's missing the old group he hung with... He even asked to go back one day, to his old school, but I think he just had a bad day that day... He has not mentioned it again. He wants to try out for basketball, which is the end of this month, hopefully he makes the team and then friends will come along with that.

  Destiny has been job searching for nearly a month and today, SHE STARTED HER FIRST JOB!!! She interviewed and took a drug test and started work today. 5 hours of work. She said her feet hurt. My mother in law told me that now is when she will start realizing how the world works, and about earning a living and all that, and I am glad, I know she has matured about so many other things this year, and I am so impressed with the young woman she is turning out to be.

 I am so very proud of each of my children and impressed with them all. Its amazing how different they all are, even when raised together in the same household.

 I am so proud this week, of ALL my children

Don't Eat That!

 Recently I was having a conversation with someone, who I will not name, and they said something about eating boogers... Then told me that it was healthy, "look it up." She said. So, not until today but even so I did. I found that apparently she was correct, and eating boogers is healthy for you. So when your kids pick and then go to munch, I guess maybe you should let them do it? Booger pie anyone?  Upon googleing this information was found:  Dr. Bischinger has been quoted as saying (in an Austrian accent), “With the finger you can get to places you just can’t reach with a handkerchief, keeping your nose far cleaner. And eating the dry remains of what you pull out is a great way of strengthening the body’s immune system.” He then added, “Medically it makes great sense and is a perfectly natural thing to do. In terms of the immune system the nose is a filter in which a great deal of bacteria are collected, and when this mixture arrives in the intestines it wor...

It's cute

It's cute how I used to think this barely holding it together feeling was temporary. So blogs. I can never focus on it. I want to keep a running log of this crazy life and then the craziness makes that impossible or seem so. In May, 2 months ago I got divorced. Just shy of 17 years married it was final. It was ultimately my choice, I paid for it, and I'm not at all unhappy I did it. However that does not in any way, shape, or form mean that it was EASY for me. It's still not easy. Let's just start with this evening for example. Son has friends over and wants to play his video game. However we have 1 tv and it's in the girls room. He had a monitor a while back and smashed it when he got angry btw. So he finds someone to loan him a monitor and now he needs a jump drive to update said game. It's 10pm I work at 8. I'm in bed  but I look for a jump drive. Can't find one. Sorry. Then the wifi won't work well it's out power won't come on to it...

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 ...
