Cutting my sisters hair, 

And coming home at almost 10 pm. I hurried got kids to bed and just got done studing for my test from Friday I missed.  Let's hope they don't try to say one they need copies, or try and spring the other two make up test on me that I've been asking to make up for two weeks now that for some reason they don't have copies.  Because I bust my butt for three hours studying for the test over wigs. The other two test I need a refresher.

What to Expect...

As I have said so many times before , I am trying to get better at blogging. To be 109% honest I am only human. I am also a very busy human and there's days where I ask countless of times what day it is. I am legally a single mom but a taken single mom. Make sense? Didn't think so but Im pretty sure if ya stay tuned for the next 30 days. You will come along a post by what that means. Starting April, I was going to do this 39 day blog challenge. But there are so many of them I liked, that I am going to add tomorrow and Tuesday along with April. There will be a few I have to change because I don't have that type of social media but for the post part you will learn more about the gal behind her mobile device/computer.  

I am also doing this because they say it only takes two weeks (14 days) to get your self into a solid routine. Although our life is chaotic, we still need some routine to it to keep up with events coming our way. 

Pleaee come back and see what ya find out about me as well as asking your own questions. 

Early Morning Food For Thought

I know it's been a while since posting. I swear one of these days my life will slow down and I will post countless of times. But I kind of woke up to use the bathroom and now wide awake. Scrolling through facebook. I see things and not particularly people I keep on a constant personal level but people that you are aquaintences with, such as people you know from high school that ya bump into out in public numerous times. As well as those people that you know through other people that know them on a personal level that come to you and vent about said person because they don't like the things they do in life, especially the abuse their children endure. Remembering that child abuse isn't always physically but nine chances out of ten is neglect. With that being said here is my way early food for thought. 

(I posted this on Facebook, therefor a few things may seem the same as above.) 

"Early morning thought... How can parents (mommy/daddy) claim their children are Mommy's babies or daddy's baby when mommy is never with them or vice versa? I mean when having kids I didn't know walking out of your kids life, moving to different areas with different people without your kids, as well as little to no contact qualified you as a parent. Or it gave you the right to say they are Mommy's baby or daddy's baby.    I thought being in your child's life actively gave you that right. (Not directed toward anyone in particular just a random thought. Because believe it or not it's happening more and more grandparents/family members raising the babies while momma or daddy still partying.)"

I don't feel as if I am wrong in saying this about the world of parenting now a days. I have two kids by two different men and I feel this way toward them. My daughters dad not sure if he even acknowledged Ry as his which is fine by us because she has finally moved on with that chapter of her life. As well as my son but his sperm donation bank was always bad about posting on Facebook pictures hed copy from my picture albums from my facebook. Caption always being look at daddys boy. My thought and I would comment a lot of time with nope sorry he's momma's boy. Because first off to get that title as daddies/MOMMAS baby you actually have to be actively in child's life. Actively doesn't count when it's a phone call possibly once every six months if that. Actively doesn't count when said parent goes to prison writes other parent how hes found jesus and when ya get out your gonna be the best damn daddy ever and ya get out of prison don't even give said child a phone call until 3 weeks after your out. Then six months later your right back in serving your full sentence.  Therefor no you have a title of sperm donor and I have the right of calling my children Mommy's babies. 

Again even though sounded like it this was just early morning random food for thought but I used my situation as an example. 

Now it's time for me to go off to dreamland again. My daughter has a friend over and Im sure they will be up early. 

Friends

If you consider people who take things you shared with them, twist the words, and flubber their lie a friend. Then you my follower have fallen in the deep hole of fakery. 

When It Rains It Pours

I thought before getting up and cleaning that I would get my computer out an update everyone on the stuff that has been going on. Most who follow and read know that my neighbor passed away over a month ago. Needless to say the stress didn't end there. Two weekends ago my daddy had a heart attack. Yes, it was an extreme shock to our family. For the most part he is pretty healthy medically wise besides of course having high blood pressure and diabetes 2. What I'm trying to say is that he hates going to the doctor for minor things so he thinks they are but he does regularly go to the doctor.

This past week both my kids have been sick with the stomach bug!!! Gross I know.

The weather has been pretty lately. meaning more kids are down at my house passing germs. Needless to say both my kids got sick.

I guess since I have done what I said I was going to do and that was to update you guys on why I have been gone. Now I'm going to go clean house and lysol! I'm extremely late on cleaning today. Well cleaning period! :)

10 Facts About Me

I have had a few people ask what is there to know about me. Just me. I will start by giving 10 facts about me.

2. I have a severe case of TMJ. Jaw disorder. To some known as lock jaw. 

3. I am one of those people that will stop in the middle of the road to let and older person, children in general to go across the street. I mean come on common courtesy respect your elders. Children as well being children sometimes get lose from parents and run. I mean in reality I live in a small town. Main road is popping with a post office, store, and even salon. People are always walking across the street. Doesn't take five minutes out of your day to let them by. 

4. Im the youngest of 2. My sister is damn near eight years older than me. 

5. My relationship with my boyfriend has been the longest relationship I've had. Besides my father of course he's the first man I ever lived with and will be my last. 

6. I have 5 friends that consider brothers and sisters/my best friends or both. In which two are guys and I grew up with both of them. 

7. My best girlfriend could give you ten completely different facts about me. 

8. I have a niece that will be 21 this year and a nephew that will be 20. Geez  old. You know it when you can legally watch your niece get drunk. 

9. I went to nursing school and graduated with a high gpa. I couldn't get passed my boards. I may take them again. I have like 5 credits away from a psych associate degrees. I am now in cosmetology school. However cosmetology is something I've alwAys wanted to do. 

10. I want all together 4 kids possibly 5. 

Snow? Again?

That's right again. Not only snow but underneath is a layer of ice. I am thankful however tho. This was all suppose to start at 6 am this morning. The rain from last night never stopped but the freezing rain held off a while for the most part. I was able to go to town get a few items I needed, such as milk, bread, groceries to last in case none of us could get out, cigarettes (I know I could have done without most think. But being snowed in, two cabin fever kids, and momma would not have resulted in the best time to go cold turkey). By time I got home up north about an hour or so from me had been dealing with it since about 9ish this morning.  Ken's job even let everyone go home early. To be safe but also because of people for stranded the company would have to provide hotel rooms. By time the sleet and freezing rain got to my town it was almost 2. Then by 3:30 pm snow start and as of right now (10 minutes before midnight) the snow and drizzling of snow is still fallen.  

Therefor this will result in everyone being snowed in to the point they have severe cabin fever come this weekend. 

By the way not sure if I have ever mentioned how badly I hate old man winter.  Not to fond of cold, fridget, and breath taking air. Not fond of extremely hot weather either but hey at least we can get out of the house. 

Hope everyone stays safe!!!

Crazy Life....

It's been extremely busy around here lately. I had forgotten to post about new planner. 

To be honest as busy as we have been I really haven't been able to really dig deep into it. However, I like how the weekly calendars are sat up to where each day says morning, evening, and night.  I did tonight with the handy stickers in the back start me a spring cleaning list. I am bound and determined to get all these clothes gone thru in the next few weeks. My house has never been so cluttered until we moved back into my childhood home. That is because before moving back here and before Ken and I. Ken had lived on his own for more than ten years and had been married before. In them years he accumulated a lot of stuff.  Then we we moved in together in one year of living together, we together accumulated a lot between him and I and the kids.  When we moved to my childhood home we went from a house with a basement to a house without a basement.  Our biggest issue lately though is that I am at school use to be 8-4, but now will only be 8-1:30 (will explain later) and him at work all day. Then on Saturdays this past November and December he worked and I went to school. In this process clothes began piling up. I began becoming overwhelmed and done minimal laundry. Meaning what we needed to survive for the week.  That's where my Erin Condren Life planner came about. I felt once I got it and got my hands into getting organized to fit my families busy weeks. 

The planner was $50 and in reality could be cheaper but it is a good quality, thick. And detailed planner. Therefor the pricing is probably just about right. 

I love the cheetah and the personalization. 

The rings that hold it together are thick metal rings nothing flimsy like notebook metal. 

Over all so far happy with my purchase and will post more in depth later when I am able to take more pictures.
