Period

So this morning I got up feeling cranky... to say the least! I got to work and yep I started. I have worked alone all day today and I am ready to tell the customers to go somewhere else LOL. I just want to go home. I am excited about tonight tho. That is actually what is getting me thru today :)

Fall

I can't believe how Fall is just here. I seems that Summer went by way too fast. I have to say tho I am getting excited for Halloween. As I have said Marco is a Halloween freak. This is the first year he has not asked to decorate in September. Tonight I think we are going to get our inside stuff out. I like decorations for any holiday. The weather here is surely Fall like. It is like 55 cloudy and raining. I really want to go home and put some sweats on and watch Lifetime movies all day.

We really didn't have too much going on this past weekend. We did however, get DirecTV and dumped Comcast. Friday night Nick and I were amazed at how many stations we have now. It is alot harder to get used to but we are working on it. I think Friday night we were sleeping by 10:00 which felt great. I worked Saturday, went shopping with Sarah for her homecoming dress and then home to make dinner. We ate watched a movie and again was sleeping by like 10:30. Sunday we got up and went to church. I got to meet 2 of my girls in my small group (youth group). They are so tiny and cute. Donna and I are wayyy excited. Our first meeting is Wednesday. I am looking forward to teaching them and from learning from them as well.

I am a very spiritual person. I used to be Catholic but now attend a Christian church. I love my church. I love the people I have met there. I am thankful for the opportunity to lead a small group. I feel that I learn more from this church than I did the Catholic church. I find I strive to be a better person more. I pray daily and am building my relationship with God. I always had one but it is alot stronger now. I just feel God working inside me and I love the peace that comes from it. I have raised my kids Catholic and they have all made their Sacraments. Dom is very involved in the Catholic church. I am trying now to get them to have a relationship with God. I am starting a Bible Study with my GF Thursday and I gotta say I am a little nervous about that. Lets face it I swear and I always feel guilty about that. None of us are perfect but for whatever reason I feel when you go to a Bible Study people expect you to be perfect and I know that is not true.

We have a busy week this week, Monday my friend is coming over for dinner, Tuesday nothing actually, Wednesday is my first small group meeting, Thursday is Bible study for me, Friday the Homecoming game, Saturday Homecoming and Sunday Church and scavenger hunt at night with the youth group. LOL It will be fun tho!!!!! Somewhere in there is a period coming too LMAO!!!! It could make for an interesting mix.

Happy Monday to everyone!!!!!

Walking

I have not walked in like a month and half pretty much since the elbow thing started and then my back. I have been taken it easy on my back. I am not sure if I told the story that I fell at work. I was so disgusted with it I really didn't want to talk about it. Anyway, I went walking last night like I normally do and it felt soooo damn good. I was hyper when I got back home and when I woke up this morning I started talking 500 miles a minute and still am. I guess I didn't realize how much walking at night makes a difference in my life. I can't wait to get home tonight to walk :)

We have Sarah's football game tonight wooo hooo!!!!

Have a great night everyone!!!!

picture again

I am not sure what is going on with the pictures on here but the last one was small and this one I tried to make bigger and it looks like crap.

My hubby

I love my husband dearly but lately I have not had a sex drive LOL I just don't know what is going on with that I just don't have it in me. He is very patient about this too. I give him credit. He is more understanding then most men would be. However, I feel bad about it and I keep saying yep tonight hunny then I end up falling asleep. I told him yesterday yep tonight for sure and I was sleeping by like 9:30. Oh well, I will get thru it it certainly is not the first time this has happened. This picture is us at a party we went to over the weekend.

daughters

My daugther was a mess this weekend fighting with all her friends. Her friends hated her BF and I ended up not liking him either. I told her a few weeks ago that she could not see him anymore because he was just way too controlling over her and I hated it. I seen my daughter change and it was driving me crazy. That made her pretty much hate me for the last few weeks. It has not been easy. Even tho I told her I am not here for a popularity contest. Anyway, she was still talking to him at school and texting him. Marco told me when I got home Friday that he drove her home from school. I was pissed... she knows she is not supposed to drive with him at all EVER! So instead of arguing with her AGAIN I decided that I would punish her another way. I made her clean all the bathrooms 3 of them to be exact LOL. I was enjoying it but was also gonna let her know I know what she did. She was so pissed at me she mumbled around the house with a huge attitude. Later that night we were talking and I was twirling her hair like I always do and I knotted it up in my hand and said I know that he drove you home today... the look on her face was priceless. See I normally yell but I am trying to change that. I told her if it happens again she will lose all her privileges to anything enjoyable. Saturday as soon as she wakes up she starts crying because of her friends. By the afternoon I was so sick of hearing it but she continued anyway. I went to bed and got up to go to the bathroom at like midnight and she came in the bathroom crying again. I kept telling her you and your friends will make up just go to sleep. I was just very tired of listening to her cry. I got up Sunday for church and she was not up I didn't wake her. I got a text from her in church that she was hanging with those same friends she was crying over ALL WEEKEND. I wanted to say I told you so but I didn't. Nick and I went to lunch and I got a text from Marco that floored me. It was a text telling me he was stressed out from a text he got from Sarah's X BF. I told him to forward it to me. When I got it my jaw hit the ground. He told Marco he touched Sarah and I won't go into details at all. I really didn't know how to react to it. I know she is 16 but I really didn't think that about her. I mean I didn't have sex til I was 19 almost 20. I wanted nothing to do with any of it at 16. It wasn't even that bad but still that is my little girl. I almost started crying and I wonder where she gets her dramatics from LOL. When I got home I showed her the text and she nodded her head yes. I told her that I was disappointed in her and that why would she want to talk to someone that talks shit about her like that. She said Marco already told me that you knew and I am not talking to him ever again. I then forwarded the text to the little shit and said that is the way you talk about my daughter. I also said if he does anything like this again I was gonna show his parents. His response to me was go ahead they know what I do and don't care. WTF???????? A part of me wants to lock my daughter up until she is 18 but I know she needs to learn the life lessons that we all did. I just don't know. I am trying my best to take everything with a grain of salt but it is hard!

So that is how my weekend ended.

Friday

I am soooooooo thankful it is Friday. I need to just relax and chill this weekend. We have pretty much nothing planned which is odd for us but I need it. These kids run me ragged.

I hope everyone has a good weekend :)

Strep Throat

Nick was not feeling good over the weekend and just pretty much slept. I felt guilty leaving him Saturday night to go out and when I came home he slept the whole time. Monday he went to the drs and was told he had strep throat. I catch that pretty easy because I still have my tonsils. I was not feeling the greatest over the weekend either but it is so hard to tell with me because I have allergies. This morning I was not feeling so good myself and I made a drs appt. I got there and of course I had to have my one ear cleaned because it had wax in it. Then he said my throat looked red and my nose looked red. He also said my eyes looked very irritated from allergies. He thought it was a mix of both allergies and a sinus infection. Gave me a script for anitbiotics. I am not so sure I need them. Seriously I don't understand that whole thing if ya need them or not. It is just weird. Does anyone have any input?

Reunion

The reunion was a blast!!!! I had so much fun. It is so fun connecting with people you have not seen in 25 years. I don't have time for a long post so I will just post a few pictures from the evening. I have more that I will share later.

Before I share the first picture I will explain it LOL. At this bar restaurant we were at there is an Indian in the women's bathroom and he has a little leather thing on and if you lift it up to look at his ya know private parts there is a light and siren that goes off in the bar so everyone knows your looking at it LOL. So we just had to set the siren off in a big way. That is my other BFF.

High school

Tomorrow is our semi-formal 25th reunion at a really cool sports bar! I am so excited... I can't wait. I am going with my 2 high school friends. Facebook has hooked me up with alot of people from high school. One girl said she had a ton of pictures of us when we were younger and she was so excited to share them with me. It is going to be a good time. I went to this store here called Buckle. I am not sure if you have one by you but OMG the jeans this store has. They aren't cheap but they have 66 different fits for women. I went in and they see what you like and then take you to the fitting room and then they bring you everything. You never have to move. It was nice and I must of tried on 30 pairs of jeans. I have a hard time with jeans because I got a booty LOL. In order to get them to fit the booty they are usually huge in the legs. Not this pair they fit perfect!!!! I bought them, a belt and 2 shirts. Of course, one outfit is the one I am wearing tomorrow night. Ya know ya gotta look good for people you have not seen in 25 years. The crazyness us girls go thru. Today I am getting my hair did. I am wayyyyyy excited. Nick on the other hand is a little jealous and I don't know why. I asked him if he wanted to see my jeans on and he said no LOL. Men are so silly but I love him! We are thinking about taking a cab tomorrow night so we all can drink. I mean I am sure it won't look so cool but hey it is what it is. Better to be safe than sorry.

I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Mice

My husband is deathly afraid of mice. I still didn't know the extent of it until yesterday I had some errands to run after work and I was not home when he got home. He called my cell and this was the conversation:

Me: Hello

Him: Where r u?

Me: I had some errands to run I will be home in about a half hour

Him: Ok

Me: what is wrong?

Him: I am gonna wait for you in the garage

Me: R u kidding me?

Him: No I am still freaked out over the whole mouse thing

Me: Trying to hold my laughter in saying ok hunny I will be home shortly

I thought he was joking but nope as I pulled down the street there he was waiting in the garage for me with the TV on.

Seriously that is too funny. I told him if my dad was still here he would lose some major man points. He would be soooo disappointed LOL.

Have a great day all!

school starts and mouse traps

School started today for my twins. I am glad about that that means that maybe they will go to bed at a decent time instead of staying up all damn night. Dom started last week :( I am still getting used to that! He is excited and I am excited for him these are the best years of his life. He is working now so things are coming together with him. It is just me that needs to still do some adjusting LOL. I feel bad for the twins tho because their bus comes at 6:30 a.m. they are so not used to getting up that early. They will have to get used to it :)

This past weekend we went to Colleen's camper and had a great time! The weather was perfect. It was nice to relax I have had alot going on lately with Sarah. It felt great! I guess people were right about teenage daughters being a handful I used to think nope not mine but yep she is. I gotta say I am not happy about it. It seems when boys come in their life they loose their minds LOL. We will get thru it... I am hoping. This is all new territory for me and ya never know if your doing the right thing or not. We will see :)

Last night Nick and I were sitting watching TV and I seen something move out of the corner of my eye. I said I think we have a mouse in the house. This is not uncommon in our area because we have a creek and field 2 doors down from our house. Nick said no I didn't see anything. We continuued to watch TV and I see it again... I said there is a mouse in this house. We had pasta for dinner so I got up and put a bowl on the counter and watched sure enough he came right up to the bowl. I got up and yelled OMG THERE IS A MOUSE IN HERE. Nick freaked out I had no idea he was so afraid of mice LOL. I watched the mouse go behind the stove. We got up and went in the kitchen Nick started banging on the stove and he had a broom in his hand. The mouse came out and Nick was swinging the broom on him. I almost peed my pants it was freaking hiliarious!!!! I told him you have to hit them hard they don't die easy LOL. I sent him to the store to get a mouse trap because I told him that is the only way your gonna get it. He left and came back $35.00 later. He bought everything you could think of for mice. These little things you plug in the wall that make some sort of noise to keep the mice away. I said hunny all you needed was a mouse trap. I geared up the mouse traps he bought and put them in the kitchen. I put one in the one cabinet that I thought he was in and went and watched tv I ended up falling asleep. NICK NEVER SLEPT! He woke me up at 2:00 a.m. saying he thinks we caught it. I said so go see... that is when I realized how afraid he is of mice. He said can you go check??? I got up and sure enough there he was so I said to Nick well grab him he is dead. He wouldn't... so here I was half asleep trying to get my thoughts together to get this mouse. Nick went in the garage to get me a glove LOL. I put the glove on and Nick was standing behind me with the dust pan. I grabbed the mouse trap and went to put in the dust pan. Nick was not having it. I had to go outside at 2:00 in the morning and walk out to the street where the big garbage can was to put the mouse in there. On the way back to the house I was cracking up!!!!! I laughed for like an hour. Nick called me his hero LOL. It was hiliarious to see his face expressions. He seriously was terrified. I think it is funny too that he never slept the whole time before the mouse trap went off. I have a new name now it is mouse buster LOL.

I hope everyone has a great day!!!
