Mommy said don't stick your fingers in that....

A weekend or so ago, bailey had his friends over and they had taken apart the fan, and they were sticking things in it. I gave them motherly advice on how the protector was over the blades for a reason...and they could lose a finger .... nah-ah bailey says as he stopped the blades with his hand.

So I made them put the fan back together ....and took it from the room. Well tonight they decided I guess to ignore my motherly advice...and stuck a SHARPIE in it....yes Sharpie went everywhere ...I asked what daddy was doing while I wss away to have not stopped such a thing...he was laying in bed....sigh.

Moments later I walk towards Bailey's room as he's running from the fan, screaming holding his hand.  Sho' nuff he's cut his damn thumb.  Of course I use this moment to remind him "I told you so". I'm a woman ill use that phrase every possible chance I've got.

He's alright. He shall survive. A band aid. Some tears. Some hugs and an ibuprofen later....he's sound asleep....and will, hopefully, never stick his extremities into a fan.

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.

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 ...

Its not always 50/50

 Sometimes one person has to hold up more weight than the other does. Lately I feel as though I am that person holding the extra weight. Lately I have been wishing I was not that person. I feel like I am being spread a bit too thin... I also feel like no matter how many times I try to explain myself, it does not matter.  So I will just keep waiting, and hopefully eventually someone will come and take a few books off of my stack. Take a load off. Help me out. Chip in. You get it? I am sure you do. Now if only other people did as well.  God doesnt give you more than you can handle. I wonder sometimes if He thinks the load he's giving me is being more evenly distributed than it is... Maybe he can review my case :)
