Big Black Horse & a Cherry Tree



Yesterday was Brian's first day *not* working & I'm not so sure I like it. I can't just slack off and sleep all day like I used (or so he thought) :) I actually have to do stuff because he's around with his judgemental eyes on me LOL No, really, yesterday was one of the busiest days I've had in a while and I fill my lungs with air and say...

I got up at 7 am and took a shower, made Em's lunch, quickly drank a cup of coffee, woke Will up with his miwk at 7:30, watched the Today show Olympic update for about 10 minutes, made Will's breakfast, got him dressed, fixed his hair b/c it was crrrrraazzzyyy!, brushed his teeth, and did the same for myself, got ourselves ready to walk out the door, drove Will to preschool, drove Em to middle school, went to my sister's for pancakes, came home and did dishes, cleaned the bathroom, checked my email, facebooked for only about 5 minutes :( drove back to get Will, came home and fixed lunch (fastest I've ever eaten a bowl of chili ever!) drove to the church for a 2 hour meeting where I became the assistant leader of the Photography Team YEAH!, came home and cleaned up around the house that got destroyed in those 2 hours, finished folding laundry, tripped over the cat, framed Will's cherry tree that he painted on his first day of preschool, left to go get Em from school and made some phone calls on the way, when we returned home I yelled at the kids for awhile and barked orders at them :)then I helped Brian for the next 4 hours update his resume and apply online to 3 or 4 jobs at the railroad while I heated up and made dinner, got Will his miwk and read him a SpongeBob book, wrote some emails concerning my 2 hour meeting at church, chatted on facebook with someone who is more knowledgeable than me concerning cameras, took a shower and collapsed in bed at 12:30 am.

And this morning, when Brian and I were *both* taking *both* kids to school he sarcastically said we should do everything and go everywhere together everyday, honey. A few seconds passed and from the backseat we heard Will say "B-O-R-I-N-G!" lol

And now I am here at the diningroom table *again* job hunting with my hubby and filing out online apps. Fun fun.

Battle of the Will

So I got to spend another day fighting tooth and nail for the power with my 4 year old, Will. It's like he just thinks he can do whatever, whenever he wants. I'll just call his name, and I know he can hear me, and he just doesn't answer me. I seriously have to get loud for him to acknowledge me. And then he says things back to me like "it's not nice to yell mawmaw" or "I'm not your friend anymore." What the hell do I say to that?! Usually I say something sarcastic like "big shocker" but how is that helpful?? Its not and I know it but its hard trying to teach him a lesson while I'm exhausted and brain dead. Especially after going at it with him day in and day out, and my husband hasn't been home a lot with his new job...so its just me. Even when I ask him who the boss is...he says me but then that doesn't mean anything to him, apparently. And he is obsessed with Playstation right now. He can literally play it for hours and ...

It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

This Christmas season started for me in like September. That was the first time I saw a store putting up their ornaments to sell and I thought "Geeesch, it's not even October!" But I did find Em's ornament that day, at that store and it's perfect. Anywho, when the "real" Christmas season rolled around I was bombarded by texts from women talking about "christmas decorations is gonna cause us to get divorced" and "I hate how he puts the lights up outside" or "I hope he doesn't expect me to wrap all these presents" or "he wants to just buy everyone a snuggie." I laughed a lot at these texts because Brian does leave the shopping to me (thank God) and actually will pretty much do anything I ask him to do (and he's quite the little wrapping perfectionist I might add). But the decoration fights/arguments, I finally understood...I couldn't recall doing it in the past but for some reason, we did this year. Anywh...
