So whats this blog thing?

I used to blog all the time. Not because I had 10000 followers, I am pretty sure I had maybe 2, and one was likely my mom.... I blogged because I liked to have them to look back on and remember things, I blogged because it is kind of a way to just get whatever out and off my chest. I blogged because I enjoyed it.

Lately I feel like I have forgotten myself. Forgotten to take the time out for the things I enjoy. For photography, for blogging for whatever else interests me. What even interests me anymore?

I went to a full time job, which is on a computer so I guess partly I don't want to come home after 8 hours at a desk and type and stare at a screen some more. Both blogging and photos require screen time. Maybe that is part of why I have not been doing it.

My kids are bigger, not so many funny memories with them, two have moved out and 2 wish they could (2.5 more years) but I have grand kids now yes Grand Kids My oldest just had her second little girl, and let me tell you THEY are one of the things I enjoy most in this world and I will and do take time to spend with them every moment I can.

Its amazing how cool grand kids are. Like so cool. They are like your kids but you don't have to tell them no, or have them hate you. You get to tell them YES and spoil them and  when they start to be to rotten to handle you send them home to mama. Its great. Its in fact the best.

At one time I had a blog that I used to post recipes and things, and I had a blog where I was trying to lose weight (still has not happened) I had a blog about life in general. But life in general is ALL those things, its my food and my recipes and now my newest obsession my "instant pot". Its the fact that I want to lose weight but also want to eat candy and french fries (Nacho fries are back at Taco Bell btw)

SO this blog now will be my one and only. Life, weight loss, recipes (some that go with weight loss and some that hinder it completely) It will likely 90% be about my grand kids and the funny things they do, because once again I want something to remind me of them, and this is one place I feel its great to do that.

 I hope to be back, not daily but I am going to aim for weekly. I want to do an image on my camera NOT just my cellphone and a blog and a recipe each week. Not for anyone to read, not for you who might be reading but for myself, for memories and maybe for a legacy of some sort. It will be my me time, and I am looking forward 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 L

Sleep IN Sundays!!!

My kids know this rule. For the most part. Sundays Mama sleeps in. Get yourself cereal, be quiet and get along... Then I go and do something foolish, like allow 3 of 4 kids to have a friend over, which makes SEVEN kids in one house. One of which, apparently did NOT know the sleep in Sunday rule, even in the SLIGHTEST :o/ Of course when one kid wakes up, or at least this kid wakes up. ALL the kids are up. This did, help my ease of getting them all in bed this evening, but even so! ACK! The weekend went well. We spent time together at the park. All but Destiny of course, who has her own life now. I took some pictures I really liked. I am too lazy to post them here. If you want to see them you can go here. www.flickr.com/clorissasue Anyway that is all I have for now. I started a new blog, you can see it here . It will be for cooking, and recipes and such. This one will be kept for kids and life and bitching :) Just what I needed. Something more to do :)

Call CPS this must stop now!!!

 My daughter, my oldest, the one I am a taxi for has had a ride to AND FROM several places where she was supposed to catch a ride home from this week. The library, she said she had a ride home, then the ride "left without her". The mall, I told her she'd be picked up by Tim when he got off work, and they were COLD and her friend had FLIP FLOPS on and no one came to the mall so can I get them now... She stayed the night at a friends and instead of waiting for friends mom to bring her home, she HAD to be picked up by 1 so she could go to a friends...  That friends? She was supposed to walk HOME from and she called for a ride.  So today it was lovely out. 65 or so out, sunny. School was out and Tim had to get the other kids first, as he stayed for a play Hannah was in... Well he did not pick up Destiny. I told her she could walk. For 30 min. I am NOT KIDDING 30 MIN. She sent him and I text after text asking to pick her up.  PLEASE I will clean, I cleaned my room, its &qu
