An ADULT!

 First off, I am sorry mr blog that I have not played with you in quite some time. As you well know I have four children, a job, a mini zoo, and a husband to tend to. This leaves me hardly enough time to sleep, and if I am lucky shower (and that other s word) each day. Let along "blog".

 Although I LOVE going back through my blogs, seeing what life was like last time I blinked and either laughing at myself for thinking something was such a big deal... or being amazed and wondering how I made it through. Either way I want to get back into doing this. What better time to try to start, with summer right around the corner and kids about to be stuck RIGHT UP my ass.

 Where is life. Well my child, my first born GRADUATED high school!! Thats right, SUPER proud momma moment right there buddy! I mean after ALL the days I had to practically DRAG her in by her hair to school... Going to the principal about her attendance, oh and I wont EVER forget the day I walked the campus with the schools POLICE OFFICER looking for her because she was not in class. Yeah... That happened. So after ALL of that... MY CHILD. GRADUATED. Now I know SHE was the one to show up and do the work, but even so, this feels like my triumph as well. I will pat myself on the back, for having a child who graduated, and if she can do it... the other 3 shouldn't be a problem at all!!!

 Really though. I am proud of my daughter, for getting the job done, and graduating. Something I didn't do because I was a "mom" and all that good stuff.

Seriously though, and now to top it off, that beautiful girl right there, well she's an adult now. Yep that's right. I have an ADULT child. She may not ACT it, but she's LEGALLY an adult now. Wow. Time REALLY freakin' flies! Its amazing to me that I have raised a child all the way up. Like my job is "Technically" done now. She's on her own... FLY BIRDIE FLY!!!  Wow. I will save my tears for my bath tonight. Yeah I cry in the tub while the water runs, so no one knows what a softie I am... Ha.

 Other than my kid growing... Lots has gone on. Im still married, still keeping all the other ones alive. Summer is NEXT week. I have NO idea what to do for my "BORED" kids. I am trying really hard to get into my photography hobby a bit more, and maybe start making some money off of it. I got a certificate of completion for the school I went to online... Go me. I feel like I have learned quite a bit. Especially when I look at photos I took a couple years ago! EEK!

 Work, well its work. Its what I love doing, I love the place, and my customers, and even my co workers... Boss well thats a love hate relationship half the time. We'll have to get into that later on.

 I am feeling extra fluffy and hope to start working on that issue as well. Wow I seem like such a "go getter" on my blog! Hopefully though I can follow through with this blogging more often, still keeping kids alive, doing photo shoots, and losing some weight. Sounds easy right? Right! Well we'll see!!!

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 :)

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 ...

Done Growing

 Well soon enough it will be the start of a new school year. Sooner for my younger two, than for my older two. So today we went to get a few things that will be needed. Some shoes, socks and backpacks. Mommy needed a new pair of shoes too, I wear mine out pretty quickly being on my feet as a waitress.  So my son is about the pickiest shoe person out there. Nothing fits. We have to try on like every.single.shoe. in his size before he can choose. Its irritating and stressful. Hannah was pretty easy although she did not take the cheaper "on sale" pair I liked best. Either way she was quick and painless.  So then mom's turn. I put on a pair of 6.5 I wear those or 7's depending on the shoe. I wanted to try those new shoes with the curved bottom. Anyway... I get the 6.5 on and Hannah feels for my toes. "Oh you better get a size bigger" She says. "Those wont last the whole school year!" I told her I did not have to worry about outgrowing my shoes. My ...
