Summer Fades....


Tan lines start to disappear. The summer toe nail polish makes its way to the bottom of the bag. Flip flops get thrown to the back of the closet. Socks make their way back into the drawer. Hot concrete wont touch your bare feet for a while. The water sprinkler gets put away. The ice cream truck is parked. The snocone stands close. Bathing suits are put up and jackets are brought out. Swimming pools are cleaned one last time and close. Everyone tries to get that one last BBQ in. Football season officially starts. You can start to smell the crisp fall air....when summer starts to fade. Until next time summer...i will be day dreaming of you alot this winter. We have big plans for you summer....come as quick as you left!

Do I really have time for that?

I go back to work Monday. Part of me is ready to go back because one I can only do so much around the house when the baby is sleeping and two I am getting really stir crazy. I honestly thought I would want to be a stay at home mom...not so much...of course I may eat those words when he is a little older and doing more than eating a bottle and sleeping all day!! The other part of me isn't ready for the sitter to tell me...."he laughed out loud today"..."hes holding his bottle all by himself now"..."hes talking!!"....it will break me!! and then the fact that Josh will have him in the afternoons I still will miss out on so much too!! I just keep telling myself....working hard now will allow him to have the things he needs and he will appreciate me for that. Between now and then I want to have a little time to myself...kick my feet up and put that load of laundry off or the sink full of dishes off just one more day....and hold him all day and soak it all i...

Im going to take a break!

This potty training business is for the birds! "He will go when he is ready" is all people keep telling me. My response ..."He does go when hes ready...in his diaper!!" Maybe if we just take a break and not rush it, it will all fall together. Like him sleeping without being bundled, going to nap or bed without a bottle, feeding himself his food with his own silverware. All the other milestones in between that he did when ..."he was ready" Going to the potty is a big deal for kids. This little adventure has been stressful on him. Not just me and Josh. I mean...hes constantly having to take off his pants and diaper, either sit on the little potty or put his seat on the big potty, sit down and get comfortable, make sure everything is aiming where it needs to be.....for nothing! He laughs the whole time he is on there. Except if the seat is really cold. That doesn't make him laugh at all. So for now we are on a break from going to the bathroom all at on...

I've always been a badass!

When I started losing my hair, of course I was certain it would grow back. It didn't. From April 2012 to November 2016 I never went out in public without a hat on. I think I wore a wig 3 different times and didn't like it.  So many times people would approach me asking what cancer I had. If I was in remission. They would look at me and treat me as if I was sick, contagious and/or dying. When I would tell them about Alopecia and how it was a sudden onset, they would either feel really sorry for me or act as if something was terribly wrong. I mean--its hair! Whats wrong with someone if they lost AND cant regrow hair, right? After giving up on Dr's, I decided to get a tattoo. On my head. Hats are hot and annoying. I live in a part of the country that is flat and 50mph winds are considered a light breeze. So imagine dealing with holding a hat on your head as you carry in groceries or hold your sons hand. It got highly annoying. So I wanted to do away with hats an...
