My new job.






My new job is awesome! I started full time April 12th. My hours vary. I start at 5am sometimes 9am. I'm off anywhere between 845pm and 915pm. I am however on call...I can be called in sometimes between 2am and 4am (just depending on the disaster). I don't have to dress up. I don't have to wear make-up. I can watch TV or listen to music all day. I can dance and sing and be silly if I want. I can go outside and catch some rays or play with the dog. I can snack all day. I can do whatever I want for lunch and I don't have to be back at a certain time. My family and friends can come by and see me when ever they want to stop by. I don't have a big mean boss pointing his fingers at me when something goes wrong or breathing down my neck to get something finished. I don't have deadlines.


My job description varies. I don't clock in our out. I get paid with kisses and hugs. I kiss boo-boos and wipe away tears. I wipe a small nose with my shirt. I don't take anything for lower back pain or upper shoulder pain...since the job requires me to lift 30lbs at any given notice. I have 2 1/2 -3hours in the afternoon to myself or I to can nap. I have a masters in making fake car noises and making hot wheels crash. I do alot of marketing for Sesame Street, Fish Sticks, Spray & Wash, Huggies & Johnson and Johnson. I have been in training to speak and understand fluent jibberish. I have had eyes installed in the back of my head. I can also wake up at the drop of a pin at 312am!! ( to make sure all is OK) This job has me learning to be patient everyday. There is never a dull moment. I don't do the same thing everyday. I only want his fingers pointing at me...when he needs his deadlines met, his projects finished, his little nose wiped or a boo-boo kissed.

I do it

  Since he could talk he has had a certain Independence about him. "I do it". I loved it when his little voice would say those words. Even though he sometimes had no clue what he was doing. Or he wanted to lend a helping hand with me, I have always admired that he was a hands on learner .     Now that he is 4 he really doesn't need much help getting dressed. I still stay present just in case he needs my help. "I do it all by myself" are the words he says now. It makes me a little sad that he doesn't need me for everything now.     "I'm hungry" are words I hear alot from him. So I tell him find something to eat and I will help you make it. I let him put the snack ideas together. He can open the fridge. He can open the pantry. So he can grab whatever his little heart desires.     Here he is with minimal help from me making a peanut butter sandwich. "Watch me mom" are the words I hear when he does something a...

He's making a list....

The BIG TOY BOOKS arrived in the newspaper a few weeks ago. Let's just say he knows how to catalog shop! He knew what pages to go to that had toys for him. Anything Spiderman is topping his list right now. He will sit and watch the Spiderman movie and not move. Not the cartoon either...the movie with Toby Maguire. He would come across the pages that had the barbies and doll houses and anything pink and point at them and yell "JESSIE!!" So I am glad he knows what she likes because she changes her mind every 5 minutes. We will be shopping soon and from the very worn out toy book he has carried with him for the past few weeks now. He points at 3 things every time he opens the book from Wal-Mart...so i know he means business. And the 50" flat screen that he points at and yells "DAAAADDDY" well sorry for your luck son.

Where did September GO?!

My son was looking at the calendar the other day. Trying to count how many days to Halloween, he turns around and looks at me and says...."Where the heck did September GO?!" I laughed and said you are too young to worry about where the time is going! But yea I have no idea where it went. It seems like my post here lately is dwelling on where all the time went. Its definitely going by fast! And it doesn't help when every other post on Facebook is counting down to Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas! Geez people can we just get thru the first 6 weeks of school?! Speaking of school i have a a rant about the system. Or the lack there of anyway: I remember being disciplined in school. If I broke a rule I was sent to the office where my mom was already waiting for me. (Didn't help that she worked at my elementary school) but still. So not only did the principal lecture me about how talking in class and being disruptive was disrespectful, I had to get an ear full from...
