New Year, New me,

With 2010 soon approaching holy moly. I am making myself update my blog. There are going to be BIG changes here and I want to record them. Since Dec. 4th I have lost 12 lbs. I am finally on the per-diet(which sucks). its no sugar and no carbs and its boring. I did have a little bit of dessert. I lost that day so its all good. I am having some problems this week with being home and such. I just did my body test for Wii fit and it said I gained 2.6lbs I don't know how. so today I am going to do my whole routine. I haven't been doing all of it because my back has been unbelievely sore. I couldn't bend over for nothing it hurt so bad. So for 2010 I am going to blog everyday. Wish me luck lol

Feeling Alone!!!

I hate feeling like this, but I can't help it. besides the kids I have no one in my home and it has been that way since I became a mom. I have had relationships but nothing has ever gotten off the ground so to speak. I want to get married and have more kids. I want to go back to school and make cakes and stuff. Right now my life consist of my kids'. I work in the classrooms' 3 days a week on top of the afterschool care.

I think i'm pretty nothing to call home about. I just have a feeling its going to get worse when I have the surgery because then I will be skinny, but why didn't they want me when I wasn't skinny. My additude won't change, I am who I am. I love my kids', I love my Church and God. That's not going to change when I lose weight, I'm just going to look different. I think i'm a hell of a catch. I cook from scratch, keep house, I quilt, I'm funny and I would give the shirt off my back if I could. That's not going to change when I lose the weight because that is who I am and that stuff makes me happy. I love spending time with my kids' and doing things with them. That's not going to change. So why do guys' look to the outside first? I am changing my outside because I'm not happy with it. I'm doing it because I want to be around for my kids'. Right now I do not have any health problems but with family history in the weight and medical area that could change and I don't want that. My kids' tell me i'm beautiful but I dont' feel it.

I'm afraid I'm going to end up alone anyway. I'm afraid i'm going to end up resenting guys' anyway because they didnt notice me when I was bigger. Am I valid in feeling this way? Am I going to resent guys' once I'm small. I feel better not that I got it out, Hopefully I can sleep now.

Some Feelings

This is not how I wanted my 100th post to go but I need to get some stuff out. I love all my friends' and each one is someone I can share certain things with. I love J and her daughter N and The Princess. I think this is coming from jealously but I am upset with them. I have been working, Voluntarily working my butt off at the kids' new school in hopes that I could get hired in the extended care. I love the kids'. Now I wonder why I go there's nothing I do. They wanted to hire someone new because the last couple weeks have been crazy. So what do they do in order to give N a reason to want to be there they hired her. yea the girl that just had a baby 3 weeks ago. She has never watched all the kids' the whole time by herself. I don't do anything anymore. I loved signing the kids' in and talking to them when they first got there, I don't even get to do that anymore because N does it. She hogs it like nobodies business. I left early today because I was going to cry. It was something I looked forward to and now I don't.

i was also talking to another friend about some things and she told me I was ridiculous. And I needed to stop OK yes I was being I don't know but they are my feelings, I can't help them. I feel better getting this out. I think. Now I am going to take the Boys' to a doctor appt. then The Small One to my mom's and The Big One is having 3 friends spend the night tomorrow oh yea me.

Random Stuff

This is my 99th post.

I like soccer but man its boring.

I LOVE VERA BRADLEY. I am getting a new backpack tomorrow in PURPLE PUNCH. And a Lanyard for my WORK Badge.

1 ONE week until GREY'S ANATOMY. George is NOT I REPEAT NOT dead. I refuse to believe it.

I love reading to my kids but I have a older child in a sport 20 minutes is hard to find.

How is it that the 1st grader has homework every night but Friday and the 5th grader has only had it 2 times since school started.

I feel like crap I HATE having small Sinus' because when the weather changes I ALWAYS get a Sinus' Infection. Have to call the doctor tomorrow.

Today is Wednesday, several things happen. Pogo badges come out. I have 1 done already. and Handbells. I love Handbells. I have been playing for 6 years. I have this year and next then I have to take a 2 year break because of Conformation.

This is my 99th post. I want to do something for my 100th but have no idea what.

I LOVE BABIES!!!

My friend J's Daughter had her baby and she is such a Princess. That's what I call her too. I call and ask how the Princess is. She was born friday night at 8:32pm weighting 7 lbs 3oz and 20 inches long. Just a little peanut. The Big One and I went and saw her Saturday morning. You would have thought he won the lottery or something the smile he had on him. He has never seen a baby that small or young and he held her twice was biting at the bit to hold her lol as I was. Then I went up there Sunday in the afternoon I was there for almost 4 hours lol loved it. Changed her feed her. Loved on her lol. Talked with J. She loves her to pieces but wished N would have waited as we all do. But N and D are doing a great job with The Princess. Its so cute. Then last night I made Lasgana for them and today I took it over there they were so thankful. They loved and said it was good. I got to love and feed and change The Princess. I burped her and she spit up everywhere, But did not get any on me lol. Here are some pics of The Princess and The Big One. I also have some of me but no.

The Big One and The Princess
The Princess
She is such a doll. I have a pic on my phone of just her face and she does look like just a Doll.

Where they had her, 1 of the gifts is a Vera Bradley Diaper bag. I LOVE VERA BRADLEY. I have wanted a Diaper Bag for a while but could never justify getting one since I don't have a baby. I like the bright colors right now I carry the Raspberry Fizz Messenger and have the wallet to match. I had talked to J and N before they had The Princess and they didn't want to Diaper bag so I said I would buy it from them but they said no they would give it to me as a Birthday Present I was totally happy with that lol. So When I walked in to the Hospital on Saturday what pattern should I see in the diaper bad The Raspberry Fizz. So completely jazzed lol. It was meant to be.

Vera Bradley Messenger Bad. Mine is the older version.
The Vera Bradley Diaper Bag. Love It.Photos from www.verabradley.coom

Mickey Ears!!

This happened Friday but I'm still chuckling about. The Big One is 10 and at an age where everything matters'. He is on the School soccer team and does not want to do anything to be Embarassed about. We went to Disney and like tradition they got Ears with there name on them. I love them. The Big One got ones that look like Mickey's pants with his tail sticking up thur the ears. The Small One got Car ones. They keep them in the car and put them on when they get in the car. That is the backstory.

So Friday, The Big One had a Soccer game. we get in the car and he puts his Ears on and FORGETS about them. We get to the field and he gets out and go over to his team mates. I start laughing as does Mr. B next to me when all the sudden The Big One comes running back to the car and throws his hat at me and gets in the car crying. It took me 5 minutes to talk him out of the car. I told him it would be ok, if anyone said anything just say you had a great time at Disney. That didn't work. Mr. B told me he would talk to him so I went to sit down. I looked over and he was walking over to the field. Mr. B came over and we were still chuckling. He told him to take it like a man and to laugh it off like I told him, But I'm the mom what do I know.

All was fine except he would not look at me the whole game. After the game he comes over Mad as all get out. Saying he wants to punch number 29's face in a billion times. I asked why He said that everytime he would pass him #29 would say Mickey then later mouse. I told him it wasn't worth it you don't have to see him again. I asked if his teammates said anything and he said no. That's got to count for something, right.

Took me a day to talk him into wearing them again(which I'm surprised I did), but not he calls them the Ears of Shame. Poor Mickey didn't even see it coming.

A Christian Organizer!!

I don't know about you, I live by my Organizer I have to. The Big One has Soccer practice crap I have a back Doctor appt. at the same time(true for today). I love it I look at it everyday. I have been looking for a new one and guess what Tricia's Dish is giving away 5 online organizers and 10 spiral-bound Christian family organizers I jumped on it. and The Big One is going to his teachers/friends house, He's happy The Small One not so much since he has to go with me.

Earth DVD giveaway!!!

Over here at Here and There Blog, Pat is giving away a Disney Earth DVD. Oh the Big one would love that for christmas. He would sit and watch every episode when it was on.

Part 1 of Road Trip 2009!!!!

So in June we left on a what ended up being a month long vacation. Nothing will ever be able to top it. I am going to go thur this in several posts.

On June 25th we left to go to Weirton, WV where 2 of my good friends live and haven't seen and they were moving. It was Awesome, I usually hate WV because of my ex-mil but up ther ein the mountains was awesome. I loved sitting on their deck with a very weat internet connection and catch up on stuff. We did so much in the 3 full days we were there. We got there Thursday afternoon and just chilled. We were going to surprise my 1 friend but her husband told her but she was still happy. When we got there is when I found out Farrag Fawcett had died and Michael Jackson had been rushed to the Hospital. Friends' Husband and I plus Kids' went to dinner and that's when we found out that MIchael Jackson had Passed. The whole Restuarant was buzzing with the news.

Friday Friend was off so we ran errands and such. Went to their old house to help pack up and such. Not much happened that day.

Saturday, Friend had to work, boo. Friends' Husband toolk the Big One to the dumpster(I told him to leave him, but he didn't, lol) They were unloading a bunch of crap from the old house. After the Boys' got back and took a nap. they started to put together a table a chairs for the porch. The Big One put togehter the table and 2 chairs by himself. Very Proud of him. they also played badmitton all in all it was a good day.

My friend' live in the wood' and the deer literally walk thur their yard. I had a vvideo but its on a disk some where I will post it when I find it.

On Sunday we went to church. Then to a flea market, where they spoiled the Boys' rotten. The Small One for a Spiderman hat and a sticky dart gun thingy. The Big One got 2 things for Star Wars stuff. After that we went to the mall. We went glow in the dark Mini-golfing and then went and saw Transformer 2: Revenge of the Fallen. It was a very good movie.

We got up Monday to a very good breakfast and hit the road for the second part of Road trip 2009.

Here are some pics from that trip.

Lap-band

So today(I know I have been busylol) I called the center where I am having my Surgery and was told some good news and bad news (isn't that the way it always is). The bad news is the insurance hasn't paid for the 1st surgery of the year(yes i'm on Medicaid and they are only allowed to do 4 Gastic/lap-bands a year). So until that one is paid they can't do any more. The good news is the lady who was put in front of me in june because of said insurance is thinking of going somewhere else if she does I am again next and I could be going into the program by the end of the Month. WOOOHOOO.

If you pray please pray that insurance does what it should and pray for the first surgery.

and Second for if the Lady decides to go somewhere else. It would still be a good thing because she would still get the surgery done.

Thanks

Vacation Post!!

Vacation posts are going to take a little bit more time since my computer crashed last week and I have to find the CD's that have the video's and Pictures on them.

Babies, Babies everywhere!!!

Most of my friends are of the older Variety and I love them. 3 of my very good friends' all turned 41 this year. 2 of them have birthday's in March they are 6 days apart. Back in January my friend J called to tell me her just turned 16 y/o daughter was pregnant and due Sept. 13th. She had Mixed feelings for good reason. The Baby daddy planned to be and I'm happy to say he still is. She is about to have her daughter this Friday and for the most part we are all super excited but also very scared for her. I cannot wait to hold Little "L".

Yesterday after work I checked my facebook to find out my friend "D" who's birthday is 6 day's after D is going to be a grandma, too. Her daughter is 19 and engaged so a little better situation. Her due is May 1st. They are excited to be grandparents today. D and J are both married but we are all close so its exciting. No I will not be a grandparent any time soon since my kids are 10 and 6.

I'm so excited there are Baby eerywhere. And I'm happy for the Duggars and #19 good for them.

My Birthday!!!

So today I have been on this earth for 29 years. 1 more year until the BIG 3-0. In those 29 years. I have been in Love, Lost Love, Given birth to 2 of the best, brightest boys' God could put on this earth and I'm their mother.

29 is going to be a busy year, good year. Since given birth to those bouncing baby boys' I put on a lot of weight. Family history is big people, but in everyone Else's case they are also very tall. Not the case for me. I am 4' 11'' and a quarter(can't forget the quarter) lol unless I am wearing my Z-coils, then I am 5' he he.

When I got pregnant with that first bouncing baby boy I gained 76lbs yes shocking I know. I was 137. On my little frame it was brutal. And it didn't happen until my 4th month and then BAM. He was 8lbs 12oz. So he wasn't little either. He was 4 days late the little shit. After he was born I was able to get down to 180 but it never lasted long. 3 years and 2 months later I was right back up to 213. I hated it. But I got pregnant again.

I gained wight again and ended up having GD. I gained 40lbs. I just looked like a Oompa Loompa. I hated myself. I didn't care I would go out in my PJ's. In 2007 I lost 30lbs but guess what they have found again. and that Little Bouncing Baby Boy was only 6lb 1 oz and is best little Christmas present ever. And also a little shit.

When I was 8 and a half months pregnant with the Little One I was stupid and stood up on a chair. I broke my Fibia from half way up my leg in half straight down. I had to have 6 pins and a plate put in 3 days after I had him and could not walk for 3 months a very dark 3 months.

It wasn't until July of last year that I started to care really care. I want to be around for my kids and I can't stand to look at myself. So I am Having the Lap-Band done. I have tried in years past to lose weight. I have a Thyroid problem that makes it hard to lose weight(also lose year and can't sleep), My ankle is now fused and doesn't move and I have massive arthritis in my lower back from being hit by a car 12 years ago and in my ankle.

I have already started eating less. I just had surgery this past Tuesday so once I heal I am going to start Wii Fit again.

And tonight I got to spend it with 13 friends, Drinking, Eating, and Laughing. I am very blessed.

Cancer Sucks!!!

While I was away on Vacation a friend of mine's ex-husband(got that) was diagnosed with Colon and Liver Cancer. When they did the surgery they removed over 100 Polyps only 2 were cancerous. They also found 2 spots on his Liver. When he went back they told him the cancer was in stage 4 and 15 % survival rate. He lives for his boys 6th grade and freshmen. He hasn't been able to start chemo yet because his incision hasn't completely healed from surgery, and he is trying to get some more opinions. Today there was a benefit for him and we went to it. I had not seen him since mid-June and holy moly the changes. I am just going to keep praying to God for a miracle and healing, If you pray please do the same. As the kids' were off playing(all 4 of them) and the adults talked. The place was packed. Cancer Sucks.

Our Weekend!

This weekend is jam packed. Today we are going to a benefit for a friend who is battling stage 4 Colon and Liver Cancer. Then tomorrow is Church and dinner with friends for my birthday, while the boys' go to a school skating party.

The boys' have been in school for a week and a half. They love it. The Big One is in 5 th grade but is taking 6th grade math. His teacher said she would put him in 8th grade reading if she could. He is also doing soccer which is kicking his butt, band, then basketball, and track. Heard there is going to be a chess Club so that too.

The Small one' is in 1st and loves and he is so cute in his uniform. Just trying to get him to do homework has been a little bit of a pain, but we have been so busy too.

The Big One' is already dealing with girl issues' geez louis'. He has had a girlfriend for almost 5 years next month. she is in 8th grade and I love her. Now a week and half into school and he was told that this other girl likes him and he says he thinks he likes her too. Oh my its already starting.

tiny update!!!!

I have been working on vacation posts of our month long vacation. I have also been busy this weekend as its the last weekend before school starts woohooo. oh and addicted to Sorority Life on facebook.

I'm hoping to be back

I am really going to try this time I promise. I have been reading about Blogher and would love to go. Right not me and the snots at watching BB 11. Hopefully tomorrow I will get to our month long vacation that was AWESOME!!!!

Is it Thursday Yet?

Enough said. I cannot wait until it is thursday I am planning a movie night because of how busy we have been.

Very, Very, Very Busy

I have been very very busy and I hope it ends soon. I am working on 4 quilts that need to be done by end of school. Ok just 2 of them by end of school. so they are taking up all my time. Yesterday alone I made 32 Rice Krispie eggs, 24 Easter eggs, 2 trips to wal-mart, helped finish 2 Science Fair Projects( one still needs some work), and went to church last night.

Today we have to run to my mom's and then go to a all-day birthday party,Who does that?

Tomorrow is Easter which means, I have to play at both services and then family easter at my mom's. Urg

Once things calm down I will hopefully be able to post more.

Really busy week!! and extra teeth.

This week was spring break. like tradition I didn't have my kids but other people kids, so it goes when you have a home daycare lol. The Kids I had this year were good, so I didn't break down like last year. My kids finally came home today. We worked on there Science Fair Project, hope to get them finished this week. Next weekend we will work on putting them together on the board and the 15th is the fair. The Big One got half of his main part done and he is going to finish the other part after church. The Small One got all the main part done.

The Small has lost another tooth and is waskind of funny. I was finishing up something and he said mom, can you pull my tooth out. I said in a sec and he said oh, its out. Lots of blood to follow lol. Talking about teeth, they both had dentist appts. monday. Wooohooo no cavaites. But we did find out some interesting news about The Small one. He has an extra tooth. The kid does nothing normal. The extra tooth is above the tooth he lost tonight. So another baby tooth will come in then an adult. Looking at his teeth tonight, I have no idea how the teeth are going to fit. I am pretty sure braces are in the poor kids future, more sooner then later i'm thinking.

Well......

I suck lol. I finally finished my Tweety quilt. Of course, I only did the top. I am going to find out what I have to do toget it finished. I cannot finish it has It is to big for my machine, so I am going to have to pay someone to finish it. That is ok.

The Small one got sick in the car on the way home from a Mad Ants Basketball game thursday. Needless to say he stayed home friday and got an extra day for spring break lol. The Big One and I think we have it figured out. We think he gets Carsick. I have asked if he feels like he is going to be sick or if he just gets sick, he answer was it just happens. So he is banned from playing his DS in the car.

Friday started them on Spring Break and how to be celebrate it, with snow of course. It didn't stick but it snowed today.

The Wii. I have loved it since more so since we got Wii Fit. I have being doing it everyday since we got it. I can already tell a difference in my jeans'. I go thur the Yoga then the Training. then last the Advanced Step. I love the Advance Step, I think that is my fav out of all of it. When I started my Wii Age was 42, it might have went up to 52 during the week, but today after a week of doing(plus starting that girly thing yesterday) my Wii age was 32 today. I was so happy. I have a hard time doing some of the excersizes because I have a fused left ankle. I do my best and it is paying off. In about 2 weeks I am going on a liquid diet to get ready for the Lap Band. I am so excited and I think between the 2 I am going to be a smoking hot 30 y/o next year. so glad we are going on a cruise for my 30th birthday.

Today I had to attend a Bridal Shower. I was bored. I like the bride but right now I am bitter. I want to get married. I want to have more kids. I am not happy with my body looks, therefore I feel no one else does. I don't go out except for once a month with my mom friends. The only other place I go is church. I would love to meet someone from church. I have guy friends, I just don't feel they like me enough to have a relationship. If they do they don't show it.

Laundry is almost done, Boys' are going to my parents and the house is clean. I am going to be bored, bored, bored. Ahhh, the good life lol.

Sorry!!!

Didn't realize it had been 3 days since I last posted. I am so busy. I am so close to finishing up my quilt I can taste it. Plus, we got the Wii Fit on sunday so I have been doing that everyday. I needed a new dryer, not having alot of money I went to a used place. I have been there before so I thought it would be no problem holy moly was i wrong. They brought the first one yesterday and it was to big and so they took it plus my old one. today they bring another one, get it all hooked up. Everytime they would test it would trip the breaker, funny since it should be a gas dryer. They made a call and the store wanted them to bring it back in. So they bring it back upstairs and on the truck. So tomorrow I am going to my friends to do a load, and hopefully since 3rd times a charm they can bring me a dryer that works. Today we have church, then lenten dinner, which I have to make something for. then finally handbells and home. OH and the Big one joined the track team. I cannot wait to see how he does. I never would have thought he was a sports player. This year he has played basketball and now track.

Today

Today was fairly good. I got 2 rows down on my Quilt, so now I only have 6 more to go. But man I'm sore. I'm hoping to work on it tomorrow and Monday since I will be home most of the days. We were suppose to go to a birthday party today, but I didn't want to have to the my friends mom. The nerve of the women Lying in court against her daughter about her daugther. I told my friend she should have called me to testify. I am the caregiver and I know for a fact that her mom lied completely. So I told her I would rather not go or i would do I didn't regret. And I'm not a violent person.

Tonight we went to The Living Dramatization of Leonardo DA Vinci's The Last Supper at our church tonight and it was very good. Now the kids won't go to bed.

Tomorrow we are going to church then to Joann's to get Fleece so I can finish up come Quilts I have.

1 hour 30 minutes or 90 minutes!!!

That's how long I spent folding and hanging up clothes tonight, what a "great" way to spend a friend night. Never again will I let the clothes back up like that. they were all clean, duh. But i just threw them on the couch for the last 2 weeks because I didn't have time to fold them and such. never ever again.

The Party has started.

You Capture!!

Don't forget to check out more you capture at Beth's Blog.

Church Voters' Meeting!!!

We had one today. I love our church, I love our school and thankfully they have been one in the same. Well today that all changed and I can say I was surprised but i'm not. We have been talking about it for years. We are not closing per se, Just moving and joining with 2 other schools. We have over 800 members of out church but only 85 students in our school, which back in the day 70s and 80s was the biggest lutheran school in the country. This Joining of school has really let some people colors shine and not in a good way. We have had our President of Board of Ed basically say our teachers are no good. HUm, my son has been there for 4 years and I have loved all the teachers. and I have gotten to know the teachers for the upper grades and I was hoping my kids could have them, too. He said his peace and then people came behind him and said theirs which was he was wrong, it was funny, but you had to be there to get it. The meeting was 3 hours long but most people were armed and ready as in brought their lunch. I live right across the street so I ran home and made a sandwish. Not being hungry made it not as long lol, plus i got to play with a baby hehe. The kids are so so excited to go to the "new school". I am going to miss hearing the kids on the playground, I think its going to make for very long days because I look forward to it because I know when its going to happen. The price is going to go up but my kids future is worth it.

The Small One!!!

my mom called about a half hour ago to tell me The Small One was hit in the cheek with a hockey puck. reason number 1,399,082 why I hate hockey. She says it doesn't look that bad but she sent it to me and it looks bad. So now i'm going to be worried urg. I am going to be calling every ever few minutes to see if he is ok.

Update: He barely has a bruise, thank goodness. He does say his jaw hurts when he moves it so I am going to call his Dentist tomorrow to see if they want to check just to make sure.

Reviews

Grey's anatomy rocked but could do with the drunk Derek. I really hope Meredith sticks it this time because if she doesn't it's going to be bad. Yang and Hunt are hot wow wish we could get some steamy scenes with them. I thought it was funny that Lexi kept hitting Marks bad hand and I think they are cute. I also thought it was funny that Bailey called the Chief's wife. I really hope Derek snaps out of this and regrets what he says to Meredith if he remembers. I hope Issy tells more people and get help.Of course like always I could use more loving.

Yesterday took the boys to see Race to Witch Mountain. It was really good. I loved Escape to Witch Mountain and Return from Witch Mountain. You could differently tell the differance from 1970's to now. I was very happy to see both Tina and Tony in it just wish they had bigger parts. overall the kids liked it and thats what matters. Could do without having to take out a second morgage just to go to the movies lol.

Wooohooo i think I like this blogging thing!!!

Getting over my fear of comments has paid off. I won in the SITS Spring Fling. I won a Beautiful Handmade Breast Cancer Awareness Bracelet from Kim at Life Is Always Better At The Beach. And if you haven't joined SITS, Do it, its really fun. And you could possibly win one over 300 giveways still going on.

Sits

Stands for The Secret is in the Sauce, and today they are having a Spring Fling!! I wasn't to sure about but holy moly lots of bloggers are giving stuff away. I am trying to get better about commenting. I have commented to be entered in come cool stuff. check it out

Can laugh now, but not at the time!!!

I found out today 1 thing I was not expecting with living right across the street from our church/school. I was working on my tweety quilt when I looked out the window and see a cop car in the parking lot across the street. I jump up and go open the front door to see 4 more cop cars going into the parking lot. I'm trying not to freak but they get out and they are in full gear. There were a couple that would going around and looking at the doors. I called my sister to help me not go into full freak-out mode. They come back out and get the K-9's, my mind went to bombs. she told me to call the school. In the meantime people from church are still going in and out, so I start thinking he isn't that bad. at 1 point they had the dogs sniff the ground all around. I said screw it, I am going over there. so I did to find out it was for a school program. I wa so relieved. They were there to show the kids what the dogs do and to tell them to not drugs. I told the 2 teachers I talk to about what I saw and was thinking and 1 said yep maybe we should have told you so you didn't freak, you think? I am so so glad that it turned out ok. the things that went though my head. It took me awhile to calm down.

I am so proud of them

There was another Chess tournament today ok yesterday, damn time change its not 3:05 and 10 minutes ago it was 1:55. Ok back on track. The small one was team captain and won(ok tied) his last game, which for him is awesome. He has been in 4 tourny and hasn't won or tied yet. Its ok because he is still young and I don't think fully gets the concept. The big holy smokes was on fire today. It was a team tournment and the big one is 4th grade and the only one in his group so he had to move up to the 8th grade and under for team. You can move up but not down. So he played 2 rounds, because there were 6 players, so 2 kids only played 2 round each and for the big one it payed off. I hoped this helped him since he hasn't been doing so well the last soupled tournys.

On a side note I got three rows done on my tweety quilt which is big since its a queen size quilt I will post pictures laster today hopefully. I CANNOT wait until it is done.

Z-coil shoes and quilts!

Nothing like different things to talk about lol. This morning I had a doctor appt with the othro for my ankle. BS: when I was 8 and a half months pregnant with the small one, stupid me stood on a chair and came crashing down, destroying my ankle in the process. 3 years ago I had it fused because the pain was worse then child birth and I wanted to start being a mommy again instead of someone who always said no because I was in so much pain. lately the ankle has been hurting and people have been telling me,because I didn't notice, that I was turning my foot out. So off to the doctor's I go. He said everything was good but there was the start of Arthritis am I surprised H to the double Hockey sticks NO. Of course he didn't have to tell me it would only get worse lol. So he wants me to get these new shoes that are out. Z-coil shoes. www.zcoil.com They are ugly but are suppose to really work so we shall see. But holy smokes 200 thank goodness for insurance and they are covered because they are considered medical.

I am so happy about my quilting I finally got all the fabric cut for my tweety quilt now I can start sewing it.

Lesswords Wednesday!

Don't know why its so small! This is a Quilt I made for my mom for her birthday last july!!!!

long, long weekend!!

The boys' had a chess tournament this weekend. We went down there saturday morning, stayed the night and came back yesterday. This tournament is weird they have set times for the rounds and 6 rounds. So we were at the school from about 8am until 530 saturday, then 830 to 130 sunday. After Saturday's rounds we went to get some food, went to the hotel, then went swimming. When we first got to the pool nobody was there, the hot tub was nice, but the pool was freezing. We stayed an hour. By the time we got back to the room I was not feeling well, but morning I was not doing well. I barely made it driving the hour and a half home. Within a half hour I was asleep and woke up with a headache that I still have. The boys' did not do well in the tournament. They each won 1 game and lost 5. We have another one this coming saturday so hopefully they can do better.

Tonight is a busy night, The big one has band practice, then they both have boy scouts. I'm thinking pizza for dinner lol.

Even on a board that I have been on for years(6) I still am afraid and some of them I have met in person, ok 1, but still lol. We have gone private and I have tried with all my might( and I hope it looks like it) to do better with posting. I am afriad I don't come off with the right feeling if that makes sense. even in real life I am always going away from a convo saying crap why did I say that, I hope they know what I mean. I am the ackward nerd in the room.

and in other news I just checked my google thingy lol and i'm popular in New York which rocks becuase I will go to a Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade before I die. and also thanks to Cali. (I was raised in San Diego), Kansas( been thou there), Mass, Colo.(been thou there, Penn.(been thou there) , Loui., Wyo(been thou there, Got 2 freaking tickets).. Nevada,(love vegas and the M&M's and Coca Cola store) Fl(going to disneyworld in July), and Ari(been thou there).

Back From bowling!!

We had a blast but my back is killing me. I scored 66 and 96. I have already taken meds so I can sleep tonight. But it was so much fun, but teenagers can be a pain. I told the youth director we were going to become youth and she said that's fine lol. It was nice to see so many youth when our church is going thur so much turmoil. The kids had a blast so I think we might so doing more things with them. My oldest just turned 10 so he can get away with it. Even more so if our school goes together with 3 other churches. Must get off and get kids in bed.

Call the NEWSPAPER!!!!

Me, mom2kmjx2, is getting out of the house for longer then an hour lol. We are going bowling with our church youth group. The boys' can't wait. I have my shoes and a cute outfit to sport. So I will let you all know how we do when we get back.

Just something I like to do

Its stupid but I like to look up the actors and actresses of a movie while i am watching it. I tend to enjoy more. weird I know lol. Right now I am watching Msytic Pizza. Its the 4th movie I have watched today.

Monthly moms' night out cancelled!!

I am bummed we are not going out tonight because most people ended up having other plans. And it snowed and is snowing so we are not going anywhere. Next weekend we will be gone all weekend. The boys' have a weekend long chess tournament. We will be leaving right after school on friday and be back sunday night. Right now me and the big one are watching Fool's gold, then I am going to watch the secret life of bee's. Tomorrow I am going to go get a paper for te coupons and start using them again. I may look into having it delivered again. I don't read the paper but love the coupons lol.

a funny convo with the small one

small one: (out of nowhere) I don't want this carseat anymore
Me: ok, that was our of nowhere, why do you not want that carseat anymore?
small one: Because I got it when I was 4 and i'm 5 now.
Me: well, honey You have to be in a carseat until you are at least 7 years and 80 lbs. So lets do the math.
small one: ok
Me: you are less then 2 years to being 8 and weight 35 lbs. So that means you have to gain 45 lbs before your 8th birthday. Do you think you can do it?
small one: NO
Me: i'm sorry sweety, I think your going to be in a carseat until you are in college. (as he goes and pouts) lol.

i'm a very boring housemom!!!

Can you tell? I have only left my house for less then 2 hours this week. Not because I couldn't because I didn't want to lol. it was very nice to just get up and pick up house. I have for the first time since before our surgery(dec. 23rd) got caught up on laundry. And I got caught up on dishes since our water heater went out and I couldn't do dishes.

They are saying we are suppose to get 2-4 inches of snow by noon tomorrow. I am suppose to go out with my mom's group so I hope I can go. I will be taking the boys to my mom's and picking them up after since lately my parents haven't wanted to go to church and not going to church is not an option in this house unless you are sick. wich was the big one a couple weeks ago. And he was upset he wasn't able to go.

I hope everyone has a good weekend.

(almost) wordless Wednesday

Me and my Best friend Xmas 2007

I still feel like crap!!!

I still feel like crap, I have a headache today. And my water heater went out monday night. I got a new one yesterday and it was so nice to take a relaxing clear hot bath then a shower right after lol. I guess I took those for granted at the apt. This house is old but I thankful That I have a great landlord. I feel bad for him because I have heard stories of the people renting out his other house. They are not taking care of it. I think(I know lol) he is thankful he waited for 4 months until I could move and that is right across the street the boys' school. Time to go play Pogo and work on a badge until the boys come home.

i'm sick enough said!!

I'm sick on valentines day(doesn't really mean anything in this house). I started feeling yucky yesterday. back in december I had (and my baby) had sinius surgery. and less then 2 months and now i have a sinius infection urg. so I got a neti pot and man was that weird. so the pressure is killing me and I am achy nad life sucks because all I asked from Moron was to know he cares, a text would have been nice nut nothing, and its 430 so I think that isn't going to happen. I am going to make dinner but we all know even when mom is sick she jnust can't sleep like she wants to.

So comcast sucks, I fell, and The big one turned 10!!!

So the reason I was without cable, phone, and Internet was because I had been fighting with comcast since we moved but the actual fighting didn't start until November. for 2-3 days a week until 2 and a half weeks ago I had been on the phone with them trying to figure why i was behind or in some cases wasn't because they were not sure. One person would say i wasn't and others would say i was. so after 3 months and 3 turn offs I said I'm done. up until yesterday we had TV just basic but I could watch Grey's which is the only reason for living except my kids of course lol.

A week ago this past Saturday i fell from the top of my basement stairs to the bottom about 10 stairs. I stepped off the first step and that was all she wrote. I tried to grab something and cut my hand, but it slowed me down to where I didn't hit the bottom basement wall as hard as I would have which I think saved me from something worse happening. I got right up and walked up the stairs. I cut my hand and very nasty bruise on my entire thigh and around back. one of my butt and jotted ones going up my arm. I am still sore and my shoulder is still sore. But I am very grateful that is wasn't as bad as it could have been.

and last but not least i have been a mom for a decade. I still can't believe it but man I love him. He had a great birthday and got alot of wanted he wanted. He had it at Laser X. He had 10 friends there and we had pizza and cake. When we were going home they were making plans to go again lol. it was nice for parents too. they would go play laser tag and the parents could talk in semi peace and quiet. So wow I'm so glad we have made it this far. Even with the bad days.

i'm back!!

I am back and will update more later. have shows to catch up on.

URG!!!

My AC adapter died, So looking for a new one. until then i will not be on much which sucks because I will have nothing to do tomorrow. how is clean laundry is done and I have no car. Couldn't it have waited until next week. jeez. I can use the boys' computer but i don't like the sit. This sucks

The big one!!!

I don't know what to do. I am so tired of the fighting. I try to just talk to him. I try to reason with him. If I tell him no or to choose something else he cries or whines that I am not fair. Today we went tobogganing' he cried all the way up but guess what he loved it and did it again. We have tryed counseling and it works for awhile but I don't have the money to keep going. I talk to him ask him whats going on how he is feeling. I am trying to my best to be as good as mom as I can but man this is hard. We have laughs lots of laughs but sadly also lots of tears from both of us. Sometimes I just feel like a failure.

The joys of Boys!!!

With raising boys' by myself I am going into uncharted territory with the oldest going to be 10 in a couple weeks. So this is a convo we had tonight. He was Rubbing his area and I asked if he was ok. he said Yes, I rub it to smooth it out when its hard. I died, that's it I have to laugh or I will never get thur this lol.

They placed 3rd!!!

The Jv basketball team placed team. the last game they played very very well and only lost by 5 points. 45-50. I also think the other team played dirty but I'm new at this. The kids are tired. Tomorrow we go Toboggan. This weekend has bee very busy and I can't wait for tuesday wheni can sleep in lol. We have 1 more game on tuesday and that is all. This coming week is also spirit week so no uniform's. This years days are Patriotic, sports, clash day and Big red. The kids can't wait. i am watching Big Love, then going to take a shower then going to bed to get up and go tobogganing, not sure if i'm actually going to do it but we will see.

Question?

Does anyone know how in the world I can make paragraphs? I hit enter and it just goes crazy. I tried six ways from sunday to make the last post 2 paragraphs and every time I hit preview or post it was one. Thanks in Advance, I am still getting use to this blog thing

busy and cold week

It got to -15 with a wind chill of -33, so it was very very cold(to say the least). I love the cold I have no problems with it except the ice, I don't like the ICE. The think is we just moved in Sept to a very old house and it has no installation, so it gets even more cold in the house. So I don't want to do house work because the only room that is nice and cozy is my room that has plastic over the windows and a portable heater lol. The maintenance man came last night to help me with the plastic and is coming to find out what is wrong with the furnace. It works but not like it should. I have the thermostat set to 82 and its only 50 in the house. The busy part has been the basketball tournament the big one has been in this weekend. Thankfully it is very local as in 10 minutes away, but has taken then homebody out of her house. They played 1 game yesterday and won 41-21. Today they played 2 games the first game they played they won 50-something to 30-something. then they played again and didn't do so hot. but only lost by 11 so we will get them again tomorrow. They play again at 1 and they have played both teams. Oh its double-elimination, If they win again tomorrow they will play the team they lost to today. So lets pray they win WOOOHOOO. Did I forget to mention its life service at church tomorrow and the kids are leading. The kids that are on the team have to leave a little early to go to the tournament. So tomorrow will be another busy day, as will Monday since we are going to toboggan woohooo lol.

Long Day!!!

Today has been so busy from 330 on. The big one had a basketball game it was suppose to be at 530 and ended up being at 415. I shoveled the 5 inches of snow from our sidewalks so wecan get 2-4 inches more, oh yea. after they won the game we went and got a pizza, ate, homework then off to boy scouts where both of them got there whittling chip card yea. the big just took a bath and is going to go to bed. then me time because I'm sore and had to take a happy pill.

Sundays are boring but good

We went to church this morning. The alarm(on cell) was in living room so I didn't hear it. so we got up late but were not late to sunday school. Came home got the chicking ready and in oven. The kids' are Wii-ing and i'm going to lay down before I get a headache. When I get up i'm going to finish lunch then Wii myself. I love sundays.

Mission Accomplished!!!

All christmas stuff is in boxes and in the basement. I have my living back. I got all but 3 dishes done because I ran out of hot water so will be going to finish them in a bit. tomorrow nothing has to be done YEA. But the kids have been extra annoying today urg.

just feel blah!!

Since the New Year I have felt blah. I don't want to do anything. no dishes which are the bain of my exsitence. laundry( but I have kept up on), house work. Today I would really like to take the tree down and stuff. I think I am going to go turn on the music and get on some kids butts to help me. but really its saturday and won't it be there monday. but then I think if we wait until then. The big one has a basketball game monday AND tuesday, cub scouts monday, I have my quilting bible study tuesday. wednesday we have the rock. thursday Oh i'm free. friday starts a 3 day basketball tourney. hmm I guess I will get off my A** and go start or it will still be up 2 weeks from now when I will actually be able to get to it.

We're Going to Disneyworld!!!!

I am so excited. I cannot wait until june. We are going to Disneyworld at the end of june. We were going to go to California. If we had gone to California we would have gone to legoland, disneyland/California Adventure, Sea World and Zoo or Wild Animal Park. We decided to go to Disneyworld when we offered an AWESOME deal. I mean if I turn it down i'm just stupid. So being that i'm not that stupid, They said deal or no deal and I said DEAL. lol. So we are going. then I was thinking you only turn 30 once(not in my case it WILL be the number I turn. lol) that I want to go on Disneycruise with my babies and my parents. I looked up for next year and that have one that is out to see ON my birthday. I think its a sign. Plus I still want to go to CA next year. hmmmm. trips trips trips lol. I can't wait until june. I have wanted to go for Years and its finally happening. Life is good.

ok I suck at this!

I am going to try to do better at this. But I have no clue if anyone is reading. so this is an update since august. I had a birthday. it was great The best adult birthday so far, until next year. 7 of us went to dinner then to see Mamma Mia. It was awesome.

The kids had started school and love it. The big one started playing the Clairnet, which is what I played when I was younger. september was boring except for Grey's Anatomy starting and so far loving this season.

October was cool we had the harvest party. The big one was Han Solo and the little was Yoda. So cute,oh yea I was a Whoopie Cushion,don't laugh I was cute.

Then November brought on Thankgiving which means family and urg the only reason i dread holidays. between thanksgiving and new years as a family we meet no less then 5 times. 5 times to many if you ask me. thanksgiving actually wasn't so bad as I was home by myself by 5, oh yea lol.

Then the small one turned 6(cry cry) on dec. 14th. it started the family drama. I always take my children out on there birthday for dinner then have thier friends party around it depending on grandma's schudule. So this year we had to make it the following saturday. The little one wanted to go skating. No problem I made it it for 1230 to 3pm at a local rink, what we didn't is there was a major ice storm coming. so back to dinner. some how a small thing became a big thing and someone got left out and there feelings hurt. The part that gets me is they wouldn't have come if they had been invited. So the following week the weather gets bad and the worst Ice storm I have seen since I moved here 5 years ago. by thursday over an ince of ice was on the ground everything looked frozen in time. the last day of school was cancelled has was everything else. Over 100,000 people were without power, we were not one of them. Come christmas a week later about 10,000 still didn't have it back on.

Me and the small one had surgery 2 days before christmas. The small one had tonsils and sinus' cleaned out. The sinus' were infected and packed. I had my sinus' cleaned out and my septum fixed. we are both on the mend.

We spent new years home Wiiing in the new year. Tomorrow I plan to get all the Christmas decorations down and in the basement. I won't be able to take the front stuff down untilthe snow melts. We are stuck in the house until at least monday.

I will try to get better at this. even if no one is reading.
