About Me

I'm a happily married mom of 3! I recently rejoined the work force after 8 years of being a SAHM. Now I'm REALLY trying to figure it out. Finding my balance w/ my family, my job, housework, school stuff, extra stuff, and maintain some sort of social life.. Nearly impossible.

go figure.

We had a really great weekend w/ hubs family. J wouldn't sleep on Friday night though, at all. That was terrible. I was ready to go home around 4 am. Hubs talked me into to staying though, and I'm glad I did. When she was up and running around, she was in the best mood ever, go figure. Weird baby. She didn't want to take a nap on Saturday either, so we let her play. She fell asleep, old man style. Sitting straight up, in a big chair. She was doing that head drop to the side thing. I had to yell out for hubs to catch her, before she fell on her head. She slept for about 10 minutes then. I put her in the car that night around 730, and drove around till she fell asleep. She slept all night long. Thank Goodness!
We left the hotel at noon on sunday, ran home and put the kids down for a 2 hr nap. Got them up, dropped them off at my gf's house, and went bowling. I bowled terrible! Seems like I'm getting worse every week now, instead of better. booooooo. From bowling, we picked up the kids, brought them home, got ready, and took off again, leaving the kids w/ a sitter. We went to our friend's christmas party. They were having a casino night for their party, so I was the horse race wheel spinner, and hubs was a card dealer. That was fun! We had a good time.
I was soooo tired when we got home last night, I couldn't wait to crawl into my own bed. I never sleep well other places. I didn't want to get up this morning, for anything. It was wicked hard dragging my ass out of bed and getting my kids up and ready for school. Ugh. I was feeding J a bowl of cerel, and I'm not at all sure what I did, like I said, I was dog tired-anyway, whatever I did, caused the bowl of COLD cerel I was holding, to completely flip over, and land ALL OVER ME! Including my face and head. WTF? The bowl of cerel wasn't even that big! That got me up and moving for sure. I hardly had time to jump in the shower before running out the door.
The rest of this week is going to be busy as ever. The week before Christmas, Ave's bday, christmas parties. Tonight we have a bday party to go to, tomorrow is ave's actual bday, wed is my work Christmas party (12-5pm btw, wtf? who does that), Thursday is the kids last day of school, Friday out w/ friends, restful saturday, annul christmas eve party w/ friends and kids on sunday, and MONDAY is christmas! My word, its going to be insane. Have I mentioned that my family (all of them) are coming for christmas day? Pssshhhh. You know what that means. In the midst of all this insanity, I have to keep my house in order, wrap a million presents, and cook an ass load of food. Ahhh!! I'm going to need a very long break when this week is over.
And here is my biggest go figure moment. Remember I lost my damn camera? And my very thoughtful hubby JUST gave me a new one, what, 4 days ago?? Yep, found it today. I was cleaning out cupboards, ones I've already checked for the stupid camera. And there it was. Ha! That's just the way life goes, isn't it? Go out of the house looking awful, run into your first love, or the boyfriend that jilted you the worst, or perhaps, buy something new to replace something broken or lost, the old thing will be fixed or found. lol. Funny funny.
Tomorrow my girl will be 5. Snif snif. Time is slipping away from me. My babies are growing, and becoming so independent. Happy and sad, all at the same time :) Oh, and some pictures for you, from my NEW camera!! woot woot!
