Three Days Ago...

Three days ago was my last blog post, I'm getting super sloppy & forgetting to post. I always have things to say, I just never get on here and write it down!

The last 3 days have been good! Considering 2 of them were Saturday & Sunday, I love the weekend! Saturday morning, Doug gets donuts! Mmm! We all got dressed and headed out yardsaling. Just to get out of the house. We stopped off at my sister-in-laws, Dougs sisters house and had pizza for lunch while all the cousins played and had a good time! Afterwards we returned home and I took a little nap, I still hadn't been sleeping well and I was exhausted. It was about 15min nap, then I got up and packed Madis stuff up because, Saturday night, she went to spend the night with my mom & dad, which is her Gramma & Papa! She called me at like 6 and said "Mom, I wanna come home because I love you!" My mom distracted her with Scooby Doo cartoons until she finally fell asleep.

While Madi was at her Gramma & Papas, we kicked off Bbqing, with my neighbors & friends with some Starbucks to pep us up! We had a Feast! Tri-Tip, Ribs, Chicken Breast, Hot Dogs & Linguicia! Rice, Macaroni Salad, Green Salad, 2 Kinds of Potato Salads, & Garlic Bread! I'm sure there was more I just can't remember! We had Chocolate Layered Cake & Cookies & Cream Ice Cream Cake for dessert & call sat outside socializing, you know, our picnic table Therapy!

Sunday was a lazy day, not only did we wake up to no Madi, but my mom & dad came and picked up Jakob too! They took the kids to Breakfast then back to their house and my Grandma & Grandpa went over to visit my kiddos. Mean while, Doug and I are home, bored out of our minds because we were kid free for a few hours. We proceeded to watch the kids movie, Megamind about 10 times, and Napped! Such an exciting time! We went to pick up the kids after we ate some leftover Bbq stuff for lunch!

We visited with my parents for awhile, then were heading home & Doug saw a few people out riding their motorcycles & we made a detour out to his parents house to pick up one of his Bikes. I had to drive the van home! :)

For dinner, I was Tired of Meat! Spaghetti with Meat Sauce, Meat Loaf, Grilled Chicken, Tacos, Then BBQ Again! Eew, I couldn't do it again, I felt like such a Carnivore, bogged down and gross! I needed something Fresh! I was thinking Subway sandwiches, and Doug said he'd go to the store for Sub sandwich bread and we'd make our own. I then started texting with my neighbor friend Lori, & she said she was going to make Ceviche for dinner! I said, Mmm I want some minus the seafood! So we sent Doug to the store for Veggies & Fruits! We made Pico, with Avacado and Cucumber & we made Fruit Salad! Mmm.. So dinner was so Fresh we ate the Pico with Lime Tortilla Chips!

I was so full, but in a healthier feeling way then I have all week!

Today, for breakfast I had leftover fruit salad & for lunch I'm making a grilled Chicken sandwich on a wheat bun out of leftovers & having some Pico! Mmm!

I'm kind irritated today. Doug forgot to leave me the carseat, and when I went to pick up Madison from school I realized the carseat was not there! UGH! I called Doug and gave him a piece of my mind! Although its not really anyones fault. I panicked. I managed though, picked up Madi on time & returned home.

I'm also excited, today is supposed to be Scentsy delivery day! I ordered from my neighbor friend Krystle, & I've been dying for it! I'm waiting to see UPS pull up and then I will be so excited I'll probably pee my pants! Not really, I'm just kidding, but I am very excited!

Haha you should see me, every car thats driving by, I'm running to look out the window! Ha ha!

This is the Scentsy I ordered!

                



I took some pictures of my kids the other day, we went to the park & I took my camera and thought I'd take some really cute shots of them! I did very  well, I'm proud of myself!

I will leave you with pictures of my lovelies!



I've been a bad... Blogger.

I'm not good at waking up on time.

I'm not punctual at all.

I can hardly remember where I take my flip-flops off!

Sometimes if it wasn't for the cold weather, I'd probably forget to put pants on if I went outside! =]

How am I supposed to keep up with a blog everyday?

Oh don't get me wrong, I READ the blogs I Follow, Everyday!

But post my own, forget about it!

I do catch myself sitting there thinking of titles and exactly what I'm going to "blogplain" about when I'm upset or when I'm elated, but then I go outside with my Neighbor Friends, & have my nightly Starbucks Picnic Table Therapy, and complaining to them helps me so much that I don't feel the urge to blog it all down! =]

I thank you guys so much for listening to me whine & complain!

I haven't been myself lately.

I'm over emotional, I've been getting upset over EVERY little thing. I'm exhausted.

I haven't slept well at all in about a week. Everyday like clock work, I am up before the sun. I kind of get restless at 2:00am-2:45am and then I feel like I'm sleeping extremely well, & I'm up at 4:15am-4:30am wide awake! I just lay there with my eyes shut tight hoping I will fall back to sleep. I keep checking the clock and the last I see is about 5:45am-6:00am. Till my alarm is blaring at 7:00am. I snooze, snooze, snooze til 7:20 and then get out of bed. My body hurts, I have a headache, my eyes are blurry, I feel like its bedtime, when its time to start my day! Could this be a little bit of a case of Insomnia? What can I do to fall asleep and stay asleep?

Krystle says there is probably something on my mind. Shes probably right. Although I try so hard not to think about it, to the point where I'm thinking, I'm not thinking about it. I'm still thinking about it. Ha ha, insanity!

I just stress. I have nothing to stress over! I have a man that loves me & puts up with my craziness & attitude. I have 2 beautiful healthy children that can ALWAYS put a smile on my face. I have more than most, less than some. What could stress me?

My daily duties? Pssh yes. It's ridiculous, because I signed on for it. I fought for my right to stay at home with my children and be the homemaker! Domestic Goddess is what I like to refer to myself as! =]

I just feel a little overwhelmed lately. I'm sure I'll fall back into the ease of it.

I mean... I clean the house EVERY day. Toys strewn about, I'm constantly picking up the same things and thinking, "Gosh, didn't I just put this back?" I do a load or two of laundry every day. I'm usually good about folding it right out of the dryer and putting it away, but I've been slacking on that department the last 2 days, maybe I'll conquer that hurdle today. It is only one laundry basket full, not too much YET.

Dishes never end. If we eat, which we have to eat, there is dishes. Of course I cook pretty much every day so there is ALWAYS a dish in the sink. Today and tomorrow are left over days. Wednesday we had Meatloaf, So tonight will be leftover meatloaf! That saves me from cooking too much! =] Last night we had BBQ Hamburgers, so Saturday night we will have Leftover burgers! Unfortunately, I do not know how too cook for other than an army so I've had leftovers the last few days. Sometimes I'm really good about making just enough, other times I don't even think about it and I could feed my whole apartment complex!

I help my daughter with her home work, while entertaining a 19 month old. Feed and bathe them both, get them in Pajamas, read bedtime stories, tuck them in. These things, are my favorite things to do in the day. It is as if its my only relaxing time, which it pretty much is. I'm winding the kids down from the day, which in turn is winding myself down too.

My neighbor Krystle takes a warm bath every night before bed, I too should try that! That's probably why shes not on the verge of a nervous breakdown like I am every day at the end of the night! Shes got 3 of the sweetest most active boys I have ever known. I've always wondered how she keeps her sanity. I see her with her kids and she always seems so calm, cool & collected. HOW does she do it? I only have 2 and I feel like pulling my hair out. She is definitely a Super Mom!

My neighbor Lori too. Shes got 3 also. Shes still sane. On top of working full-time, doing all the chores I complain about, having 2 teenagers & a 4 year old, she still manages to keep a clean house, have dinner on the table every night and come outside and listen to me vent. She too is definitely a Super Mom!

I just feel kind of like, Eh my kids are alive & breathing at the end of the day, so I must have done something right, right? =]

So today is Friday, I love Fridays. It means I don't have homework duty for the next 3 days, It means I don't have to get up, scramble for school clothes, pack snacks, find matching socks & shoes, or remember to pick my daughter up from school on time! Ha ha!

It also means, the hubby will be home, the kids will not follow their daily schedule because their dad is home. It means I will have a houseful of 4 people for the next 2 days, it also means I will have a laundry room full of laundry, and a sink full of dishes, and a floor full of toys and an ear full of yap yap yaps! That's just fine though.. Then Monday comes to the rescue! Oh wait, I don't like Mondays because that's the start of the week, school, homework, dinner curfews, bedtime! AHHHHHH! Life's a vicious cycle, its never ending, but you still got to keep on keeping on!

No matter how much I complain or stress or CRY, Still...

I love my crazy, tragic, sometimes almost magic, awful, beautiful life! <3

I will leave you with pictures of my loves!

My Goofy Little Princess Madison, Cheesing For The Camera!

Madison Very Proud Of Her Valentine Cupcake That Stephi & Adam Brought Over For Her & Jake!

This Was Tuesday! Silly Jake, Notice His Out Of Control Hair! =]

This Was Wednesday Morning! I Gave Him His First Haircut! He Looks Like A Big Boy!<3

[No Subject]

Ugh, I'm kind of stressed out right now. I guess my email account was compromised and a Mass email was sent out from it containing a link, apparently to a virus. Everyone in my Facebook Address book was mailed. One person opened the link and it crashed their computer. I am being blamed for this. =o[

The person as well as friends of the person are bad-mouthing me all over FB right now.

I would never intentionally send out an email like this in the first place. It would have been nice to be warned about this before I stumbled across something online, bad-mouthing me for sending people viruses.

It is very unfortunate that you experienced this, and I'm so very sorry! There is 399+ people I have to apologize to for something that wasn't even my wrong doing. So to all of you that received this email from me, that wasn't really from me, it wouldn't have a Subject, or it would say [No Subject] or Blank Message. Don't open it, curiosity did kill the cat, and if you do.. PLEASE do not click the weird, abnormal, fishy, link that is with-in it, unless you wanna kiss your computer good bye. Please delete it and disregard it!

Sorry for any inconvenience!
