Aye Aye Captain

So here is my weekend update. On Sunday we went to the boat show. Oh yes I am in love, with a boat. I am so going to live in a trailer and have a $200,000 boat. I love boats. So Mark had his last day with BOC. I now live in a BOC free zone. It's a nice place to be. I went and looked at a brand new Sequoia and the only difference was the steering wheel. I am so glad I didn't shell out for a brand new one. Ha I saved alot of money. So Mark leaves Saturday for Shreveport. He will be gone a little over a month, possibly longer. I am going to miss him. I am happy for him though. I got Ryan's party all booked. I am so excited for him. It sucks that Mark won't be there but I am glad that Ryan will have a good time. Does aye aye captain make anyone else think of spongebob? Maybe it's just me, lol. Well I am going to make this short. C-ya guys!

My Day

Today has been the day from hell. I was ready to get drunk before 9 am. I am fighting with my ex over custody, aka money, Mark is driving me nuts, I found out a friend from back home died, the stress of life in general is just killing me. When does it ever get any easier? Don't tell me if it doesn't I really don't want to know. I will spare the sordid details of my battle with my ex, but I will say this, how did I ever marry a man with no soul? It has been a very shitty day. I just want to go take a long bath and bring liquor with me. Hmm guess it's about time I started buying some huh? Yep its been that shitty. So on the bright side my friend Tammy is coming in a few weeks and we are going to get our drink on and hang out and have a blast. I can't wait, I need some chill time so bad. Oh yeah and I don't fit in my clothes thanks to my 5 pound weight gain. It's alot of weight when you are only 5 feet tall. So that will be addressed shortly. Well I am off to make my grocery list and try to relax while 4 kids are running around my house like caged animals that have just been freed.

Feeding the Beast

Ok let me start by saying how much I love my new car. Also let me say I realized it would use a lot of gas. But in my defense all my knowledge did not prepare me for taking that bad boy to the gas station the first time it was on empty. OMG!! Fifty dollars later I was full and ready to go. And it takes forever to pump that much gas by the way. If you ever need to find me I will be at the gas station by my house. So I am starting to feel a little better after my little medicine fiasco. Hopefully by next week I can get back on schedule and get back to the gym. I haven't been and its starting to show. That and that amount of sweet tea I have been chugging down. Def time to get my ass back in gear before it gets to big to fit in my beast. If I get to fat it will kill my gas mileage even more and then I won't be able to afford my new car. Te he the things I think are funny. Well anyway me and my sick twisted since of humor are going to go try and find something to eat. Adios !

He has a WHAT?

This was me this afternoon as I went to pick up Ryan at preschool and his teacher introduced me to another parent and said this is Ryan's girlfriends mom. Excuse me? Let me get my jaw off the floor! He is 3 years old. She said they walk around holding hands all day. And he told me this afternoon when I was asking him about her, he said I don't Muah her Mommy. Ryan speak for I don't kiss her. I was just flabbergasted. I just didn't expect a 3 year old to have a girlfriend, heck I didn't even think he knew what a girlfriend was. *sniff* This is my baby, my last baby. Why are they growing up so dang fast?

I'm not Martha

I don't want to give away any trader secrets and go to jail, but if you have stock in Little Debbie you might want to drop them. We are going Little Debbie free. That's right we are going to try and eat a little healthier. Meaning I am trying to not have the kids eat so many artificial things. So I am going to bake them cookies and brownies, cupcakes, and things like that for snacks. Its only a small step but I think its important to at least try. And homemade stuff always tastes so much better. Also really what else do I have to do? I mean this is my job so I need to do it to the best of my ability. So I am collecting my recipes and making a list and next week commences my new baking phase. We'll see how long it lasts. I am known to go off on these things and lose interest very fast. But I hope I don't since this is something I am doing for the kids. Well I better make this short. Its teacher appreciation week and I have to go shop for teacher gifts, clean the house and take Taylor's class to lunch so her teacher can have a lunch to herself. Woohoo! I can't wait. On Wednesday I take Kyle's class. What's shitty is I am the only mom for both classes who stepped up and said I would. What the heck are these people doing all day? I know there are other stay at home moms in their classes. I bet the kids didn't give them the notes. I know my kids are rather bad about that sometimes. Well I am off to the salt mines for the day. Wish me luck I am going to be responsible for twenty something kids!

Meet Aha Aha

I thought I would introduce you guys to someone that I spend a lot of time with. His name is Aha Aha and he is Ryan's imaginary monkey. Aha goes everywhere with us. He also makes big messes and refuses to clean them up. He talks to Ryan when he is supposed to be in bed sleeping and keeps him up. He rides in the truck of my car on long trips and eats bananas in the trunk and makes a mess. He likes MC Donald's and pizza. Ryan says and I quote" Shut up old mama" and says he is talking to Aha Aha. Yeah right. I guess Aha is a mother too. Anyway I just figured I would share with you guys someone that I spend a great deal of time with.

Changes for real!

LOL! We didn't get the expedition. It had a transmission issue that Mark caught. I love my husband, he is so great at stuff like this. So we ended up buying a Toyota Sequoia. I love it. It freaking rocks. I think I will be much happier with this anyway. I figured I would do a quick post and update. My cousin is home from the hospital. She seems to be ok. Scary how fast you can wreck a car. I mean every day you get in the car and don't think twice that you might get in a bad wreck. Of course I doubt horse pulled buggy's were much safer. I mean you might not have head on collisions, but when the horses got spooked and ran you were just SOL. So anyway today I am going to run errands and get some stuff done around the house, hopefully. That is the goal at least. I worked on Kyle's science project till almost 8:30 last night. Did I ever mention how much I hate science projects? They make me want to pull my hair out. Well I need to go wake the kids up and get dressed. I am so excited to start my day can't you tell? Bleh!
