OHH this week has been rough boys and girls.... Worked seven days!!!! too tired for words tell more later ((( YAWN )))

Your penis is as big as an eggroll Charlie!

This is what my crazy 7y.o nephew said to my son this weekend!!! I reluctently agreed to let my niece and nephew spend saturday night with us since i don't get to see them as much as i would love too, But the boys fight so after about an hour together usually. So they spent the night had a good time and it went well. So on sunday my sister being the cool Aunty that she is took Charlie to spend the day with them. They swam, played in the hot tub, chased the dogs, hunted toads and then we all got together for dinner. As Charlie is changing out of his swimsuit in the evening, KJ proceeds to look and says to Charlie "Your penis is as big as an eggroll". Well Charlie of course has to share this tidbit with everyone and as we all are trying not to fall out of our chairs laughing KJ comes out of the house and says "whatever he said i did is true" well of course that just added fuel to flames and we just laughed and laughed. I love that CRAZY Kid. He always says the funniest things. His insight and intelligence is amazing!!

THAT DAMN ROOSTER!!!!!!

Boys and Girls, Roosters are a bad thing! Especially wicker ones with Ivy intertwined in them. A few years ago i repainted my kitchen and my husband and I were arguing about wallpaper to put up and he suggested roosters. I don't like roosters as decor or anything else. My sister Lillian decided that this was pretty funny and it became a running joke. So for my birthday she, my niece and their roomate took me for brunch @ a dragqueen show which was AWESOME!! But my gift was not AWESOME, It was a wicker rooster w/ugly plastic ivy woven through. Well the rooster made it to my house then made it's way to my mother in law's where he sat in her car for six months. Well after a family reunion he flew into my driver's seat. So then he drove to my sister's house and climbed into her nice soft comfy bed. :) Think the Godfather, horsehead part,LOL. SO She found him after a well texted innuendo and after a few dirty innuendos about having a cock around the house, threesomes and what not and shocking my 11 y.o son who "didn't know we were that inapproriate". That was just TOO DAMN FUNNY!! He covertly made his way back too my house. She sent a cryptic text mess. on Sat and not thinking about it told her to bring it on. She said she had. Didn't get it until Sunday and then was paranoid. I looked for almost two days, with a few hints from her and bigger hints to the kids. Well as i was leaving for work Tuesday afternoon I FOUND HIM!!!! The little bastard was hiding in the trees by the driveway!!!!!! Now I need to find a way to get her back. I'm thinking something to do with gnomes??? Any suggestions boys and girls???

HELP!!! We all need it.

The word of the day is HELP boys and girls :) Why is it when we need help we have such a hard time asking for it? I have a friend whose husband has been out of work for a few months and they have struggled more than she let people know. Today she was venting to me about not having $$ for groceries and just watching the stress pull her down hurts me to watch. I have been in the situation where you cannot feed your kids on your own because you just don't make enough $$ to pay for anything. So me being the pushy person i am decided to help her. No she didn't ask, why would she?? We never ask for the things we need. But because i care about her and i knew my Mom wouldn't mind i went and raided her pantry and freezer and took her some groceries tonight. She tried to argue with me but i wasn't hearing it!!!! I made it about me of course, LOL. I didn't do it for me but for her DUHHH. Because there was something in it for me, It made me feel good, really good. I did it memory of someone who just recently passed that i used to work with who was the nicest, comforting and good hearted people I have ever worked with. Robert Edwards. He suffered a massive stroke in the fall and struggled to try to recover but just couldn't. This man always had a smile on his face and heart, he worked two jobs so he could retire debt free and was always willing to lend a hand to someone in need and so in your memory Robert I will try to live my life like that. I will make an effort to practice random acts of kindness and expect nothing in return. We all love Robert and we will miss you every day. So in conclusion boys and girls, If you think someone you know is struggling give them a hand up, shoulder to cry on or an ear to listen and always pay it forward.

OH THE JOY!!!

Do you remeber being a 12 y.o girl??? I vaguely remember, what an akward age. You are trying to find your place in the world your friends may change as often as your underwear AND your parents get mor e dumb with each passing day!!! This is the wonderful world of my daughter right now and I hope i can help her through it.... She has thrilled me to no end though by asking me to go shopping @ Goodwill though. We were in the car the other day and she asked me if we could shopping this week at the place?? She couldn't remember what it was called and I assumed it would be Hot Topic or Aeropostle but when i said the names she said "No, ya know the place you take all our old stuff". I said "Goodwill"? Yup Goodwill!!! Money is always tight for me and she has a bad shopping gene unfortunely but she is realing "pre-loved" stuff might be the way to go. Good thing for me the way she is growing this summer, lol. By Christmas she might be taller than me but that's not hard to beat as i'm only 5'2 in bare feet.lol

CHHHANGES......

You know about six months ago maybe seven life seemed sooo simple..... I had a nice little routine built for myself ya know maybe a little like yours. Wake up, get kids ready for school, get yourself ready for work think about what to cook for dinner whatever. Now here it is August and I feel like I have lost control of everything. My dear friend's and co worker's husband was battleing cancer since November and i went on vacation in March and he became very ill while i was out. She obviously took FMLA to care for him and He shortly passed away after that. And I feel like I can't get my life back in control from being desperatly short handed since then and cannot my head together lately. I am trying to find my out of this trap and HOPEFULLY shake up things and learn how to have fun again and get back in touch with the real me of who I used to be. So have a seat and enjoy the show!!! :)
