Best Mom EVER

 Ya know. I fly off the handle. I say dumb shit. I have cussed at my kids. They sometimes stay up too late. I yell, Ive spanked and I've handled things incorrectly so many times I don't remember half of them. I was thinking about it today when I once again flipped out on them... They were being bratty brats and I am stressed out... and I took it out on them, yelling and telling them they were ungrateful and just how stressed I was, and why... Which is not their problem its mine. Either way its what I did.

So I calmed down... Put my big girl panties on and took them all over hell and back to do all the things that needed done this very busy Thursday afternoon. I was at the hair place, when I realized... Ya know I am not the most horrible mother there is. Im not even a bad mom.

 We are broke. Super broke. Like negative balance in the bank... BROKE... None the less... My kids had supper on the table.... They have a roof over their heads... They are clean... They are HAPPY (Aside from teenage moodiness they have a good life) I am not a drunken whore. I work hard, I love them with all that I have and I set a good example 90% of the time.

 That in itself makes me a damn good mother, I do my best. Which is all I can do. They might not have everything they want, we might even go without needs for a while... but I do my best, and I love them. I am super mom! OH and I only beat them occasionally :)

 Seriously though... I am super stressed out and saw this mom at the salon TOTALLY methed out... Like big time. I realized, I could be that mom... and I am not. I am a pretty damn good mother, and I am shouting it from my blog :)

 Why is it when you do something wrong, people will point it out, over and over and notice every detail, but the things that you do right... They go unnoticed for ages?  Training at work this week has been tiring. I have been super busy so its hard to actually train someone... I have to get my tables taken care of. I have the kids just getting into the swing of things with school, and training myself to go to bed early has proven unsuccessful. I basically feel over worked and under slept. As I mentioned on facebook I think there are plenty of hours in the day... I need more hours at night, to work with....  Kids are all adjusting well to school life again. Still going to sleep easily at night, which I know wont last so I am enjoying it while I can. I cannot believe I have a child who is a sophomore this year. I am still not believing that actually.  Tomorrow is super busy, we have Dr visits, I have blood work done, Girl scout meeting to attend and then a split ...

The pitter patter of little (annoying) feet!

 I remember when my kids were little and innocent and said super cute things. It still happens sometimes, but not nearly as often. They no longer pitter patter, they clomp. Things change, kids grow.  Luckily I still have my little neighbor girl Adriana. She comes over to play with the big kids quite often and is almost always a hoot. From taking her to the "lime berry" to just silly things she says. Tonight was one of those nights.  I have not slept much and wanted a nice relaxing bath... As I am headed in there, Adriana asks me what I am doing... I tell her I am about to take a bath. "can I take one with you?" Uh.... I have  a vision of myself as Micheal Jackson...No baby, you cannot take a bath with me.... So I am in the tub, and after a while Tim came in to bring me towels... So he was in there visiting with me, and Adriana knocked and asked if she could come in... Tim told her no. "Why? Because Clorie is NAKED??? What are YOU doing in there TIM!?" ...
